THE STRUGGLE no GO AHEAD.

I 4 is said that in this city and surrounding re-
n gion there are about FIVE thousand stu
dents of certain correspondence school. These
figures will surprise most people. But they tell
a significant story. They show that five thou
sand people, some of them young and others we'll
along in years, are trying to improve themselves,
trying TO better their condition in life-that they
are inspired with the American spirit of energy,
ambition and desire to go ahead
Many OF these students are men or women
who were deprived of educational opportunities
in earlier life; others are those who neglected
their opportunities but now see the great mis-
take of such neglect and are trying to make up
for what they let 80 by years ago Others are
employed in shops, at skilled trades, and desire
to become engineers or to reach higher positions
for which they are not at present qualified. Per
haps they are inspired by reading the stories OF
the rise of men in the railroad service and III 9TH
cr occupations AT any rate what ever may be
the condition in each individual case those who
arc taking the courses arc all prompted by a
worthy ambition.
In these figures is lesson for those of the
Younger set. those who arc still in the public or
private schools, who have educational opportu-
mites right in their grasp and who should seize
them so that in after years they will not have
the regrets that must possess some of the stu
dents OF these correspondence SCHOOLS
ANY young American nowadays has a fair
chance TO get an education. Never was so much
money spent by the State for educational pur-
poses Never was more interest taken in educa-
tonal matters. Never were teachers more alive.
One has only TO talk with some bright and ag-
gressive educator like DIR. Twitmyer, to be in
spred with the great work being done by our
educational forces in fitting the young men and
women of this country for tho active duties Of
lc.
The young boy or the Young girl who neglects
such opportunities is foolish person. It is much
easier TO acquire knowledge when Young than it
Is in after wears. The mind is more receptive,
more alert. more curious it is fresh. The young
man at school can acquire knowledge. train his
mind. and lay foundation that will stick by him
through life The earliest impressions are the
most lasting
The school DAYS arc brief and heeting and the
Young person who in these times wants to leave
school, is weary of it. if he has the right stuff in
him will live to regret his neglect.
That is the lesson OF the correspondence school
and Its thousands of pupils TO those who are vet
in their teens and who have the opportunities
for an education showered upon them by bene-
hcent State
