BACGllAURElTE SERVICE
Rev. E. E. Fairchild Discussed
Education That Leads Men
and Women Upward

Study to show thyself approved
unto God, a workman that needeth
not to be ashamed" Second Timothy,
2-l5, was the passage OF scripture
upon which Rev. Z. L. Fairchild based
his discourse last evening when he
delivered the baccalaureate sermon
for the years graduates OF the Logan
county high school. The service was
held in the First Methodist church
which was filed by friends Of the
young graduates. Seats at the front
of the main auditorium had been re-
served for the thirty-two graduates.
and very pretty, and impressive
scene was presented by the group as
they marched down the long aisle
preceding the sermon, Rev Fair
child opened his remarks by REFER
ing to his early school days, telling
how he had endeayored to study that
he might show himself approved up
on the day Of test, examination day
He said in part:
The boy or girl that works hard
each day in school and does not spend
in foolish, frittering of valuable
time. but who applies the mind In
diligent performing of work, will al
ways be on the honor roll examina-
tion day. Statistics show us that 96
per cent never go higher in education
than the public schools: three Pc
cent the high school and one per cent
the university. II It be for mere cul-
ture, Il is not then worth while to
strive for an education. for the great
est amounts of money stolen have
been by college graduates. Educated
brain alone is not worth while, but
the scholar must have strong belief
in the power OF God and commit self
unto Him Who win point out the right
way to take. Labor diligently; be
true to self, to your impulses, to your
opportunities, that You may be ap-
proved unto God. God has way TOR
every one and il the man or woman
will follow Gods way, the plain, safe
and high way. there will be no
stumbling or cropping along in the
dark. The student will go on the way
cheerfnlly, gladly and ioyfully having
been equipped for the race
He closed his brilliant and helpful
discourse with illustrations Of the
really great men Of the world who
had started with nothing. but achiev-
ed the greatest results known to the
world, illustrating that riches IS a
handicap at times, and made strong
plea for the young man or woman to
not be discouraged because OF poy-
erty, but to study to show self APP
