The University Traiaing School.


The University Training Schoo
will open this session under mos
favorable auspices A large at.
tendance is expected and many
sections OF the State will contri-
butte students. This institution
Is one OF which the entire country
should be justly proud; especi-
ally should Lafayette County
take great interest in this school.
1t is the stepping stone between
the high school of the country
and the University and other
h gh standard colleges of the
5 ate. A strong and enthusiast
I C faculty are at the head of at
-irs at this college and students
are made to feel at home and are
surrounded by every safeguard
that insures correct character
building and high toned morals
and in addition to this the able
faculty presents a course of study
That Is complete in itself and yet
serves as a stable foundation for
higher course of study.
The people of this county, we
say, should not let the opportu-
nifty go by to See that their sons
nave the advantage of this splen-
did school. All the buildings
have been overhauled and put in
good condition and will be ready
for the students as they come in.
The session opens Tuesday, Sept
18th, 1907.

BORROWED GREATNESS.

The desire for some sort of
greatness reigng in a greater or
less degree in every heart, and
to attain it, few are willing to
persistently and conscientiously
earn the right 10 be considered
great, and are content to borrow
when opportunity offers. This
instinct to parade in other peo-
pies hCnors is manifested in the
efforts we make to hold up our
rich, aristocratic. or prominent
relatives and friends for admiral
ton, and ignore the mediocre and
insignificant. The children OF
great people SO habitually bor-
row greatness that they rarely
ever attain any of their own.
An educational institution bor-
rows greatness from faculty aud
alumni, yet the chronic failure
will point with pride to the alma
mater from which he hopes to
borrow greatness.
n city, town or community
owes its greatness to the charac-
ter Of the inhabitants. 1t Is a
fine thing to be able to claim citi-

from an b ding place can avai

stantial proof that we deserve q

For . time, we may sail very
successfully in the company o.
the great, but let storms or hard.

tations are useless. True great.

Compound kargon. one ounce:
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla,

and harmless to use, and can be
obtained at small cost from any

BALLAST.

pitiOus. Ii seems foolish 70 load

without it the craft would be Al

t sch voyager and any cargo
would De IN imminent danger OF
being lost.
We are prone to growl and
complain Of everyday burdens,
which hinder our attainment OF
wealth, position or power. Pow
srty is the burden many an as
plring youth bears, but in ninety
nine cases in a hundred it is the
ballast that protects him from the
dangers of fast sailing. With
nothing to hold him back, the
average man becomes consumed
with the fever for money making,
when he learns his ability. Let
him taste of the delights of wealth
with no drawbacks to pleasure
and good time, and the real aim
II living is forgotten. Patience
and perseverance, acquired oaly
by renewed effort after failure,
would become unknown graces.
In the educational world, it is
the constant overcoming of OBJ
stacles and mental exertion in
coping with difficulties that gives
the mind strength ord independ-
enee OF thought and fancy. The
most brilliant have need of the
ballast Of mental drudgery to lit
them for practical work.
Most of Us feel that We could
shine in goodness if all provoea-
ton TO wrath aud vexations of
spirit were removed. The truth
-, virtues that have never been
tested are of too negative a va
riety to influence others for either
right or wrong. Onr spiritual
natures need daily cares and
trials as ballast, or we are unit
to meet the storms which test cur
moral strength.
y young man may feel the
burdens of early years are too
heavy for him to bear and rise
above mediocrity, yet these same
weights are the means of saving
him from untold temptations
which beset the yonth with plen-
ty of money and time to spend as
ne chooses. Ii We will look upon
every day trials as necessary
ballast, not useless burdens. we
VIII ere long be able to bear them |
