Here In two weeks time one can gain

two years time in any university. The
college education is entirely different
from the kind Of education one gets
BY seeing things. but for practical pur-
poses the seeing education is quite as
necessary as the book learning. We

"As for our country, what could be
more instructive than the exhibits in
our government building? After seeing
1t we understand far better than we
could have before both the system and
uses Of government. Take the Philip
pine exhibit as another example. A
half days time spent within its walls
is more instructive than dozen text
books. We are entirely too apt to read
and forget, but when we see we re-
member, and here we see." WA
Examples that would bear out the
statements of my college friend might
be enumerated almost without end, and
all would but tend to prove that the
Louisiana Purchase exposition is the
greatest educator of the age. We read
the histories Of the years to learn of
the worlds progress. but here we do
not have to read, we see 1t. In the
Transportation building we see the
primitive locomotives that pulled our
first RAILROAD trains, and standing be-
side them we see the powerful, intri-
cate machines that perform the same
service to-day. That is an education
in the progress Of railroading. In the
Electrical building we find the first
primitive electrical appliances, and be-
side them the many intricate machines
that are to-day being driven by this
as yet unexplained power. That is up
to-date education in electricity, In our
school Biographies we are taught,
among other things, Of the products
Of the various countries. Here we see.
