sending away for what he could
have at home) and which II there
were good school at home nearly
all OF this money would be spent right
In the home town and help to build
up the home town instead of helping
to build up some other town. Then,
too, good school is an advertise
ment and a drawing card for a town.
Many people will not locate In town
unless 1t has good schools. Farmers
who move to town to educate their
children almost invariably move to
the town that has the best schools
in that locality, and thus that town
is benefited by the capital which they
invest, by their trade and by the
trade Of their friends and relatives.
Then too, the greater part of the
money that is spent In establishing
and maintaining good school comes
back to the business men and prop.
erty owners of that town for the
greater part of it is spent right here.
Thus, even to the man who has no
children to be benefited by it the
school is really paying proposition.
That some people fail in life is oft
en- due far more to the fact that they
are unwilling to do the things they
can do well and are constantly try.
Ing to do things for which they are
In no wise fitted to do. 1t is most to
be regretted that the teaching pro-
fession has in its ranks it's quota of
such persons. The following by Walt
Mason is very apt portrayal of this
condition:
1.-THE other day a damsel, whose
name I've laid aside, somewhere, pro-
cured a gun, to death inclined, and
tried to end the beastly grind. She
left note in which size said she's
be whole lot better dead. I've fail
ed at everything she wrote; misfor-
tune early got my goat. I've written
drama, tale and play, but publishers
most always say: % maiden, take
your junk and with 1t line your tour
lists trunk. I've tried and tried. my
hopes are gone, and SO goodbye to
everyone. She tried to work the mag
azines but never thot of dishing beans
to hungry men; she labored with her
pen producing odes that no
one read and never thot of baking
bread. Tens OF thousands like this
maid are going hungry. cold and
frayed and saying that the world is
fake and life is one big three
cornered ache, because they will not
shed their. coats and get right down |

great value of the more intelligent

doubted by any man of wise business

neighboring territory where there is
not a good school there are many
young people sent away to get the
