Shall / go. or shall stay at home?
VIII 1t pay to make an effort, leave
home and spend money for an educa-
tlon?
OF this thing you may be sure
Thousands of people who have made
the effort are ready to tell you that
they are glad OF it today. And thou
sands OF other people who once had
the chance and let 1t slip by are sorry
for it today.
The time to get an education IS
when you are young and when II is
In your reach. You can afford to make
any exertion, undertake any hardship,
offer any sacrifices so as to get what
may never be in your reach again.
Twenty years hence hundreds of people
will be glad that they started to
school NOW. win you be one Of
the number?

-|NCOLN'S SCHOOLING

Abraham Lincoln never had what
boys Of our day and time would call
a fair chance. He walked four and
one-half miles TO school for a few
months. His mother taught him a
few things at home when he was
quite small
Most of HIS education he got for
himself, but he got 1t. He studied by
the fire light and learned by heart
the contents Of every book he could
get hold Of. He asked questions Of
every stranger he met and as long as
he lived he studied and studied hard.
What an example he is to the boys
Of Kentucky today He PROVES
that any body who is in earnest can
get an education and a boy or girl
who is in earnest today can get an
education far easier than Lincoln did.
