PIowina Under Heavy Growth.

In blowing under heavy growth
If the iurrow is nearly turned over
much OF the growth is left in the bot

According TO TINS new idea, educall0h Is not
merely receiving but giving; not learning alone but
doing The educated man is open-eyed and open
minded, quick to respond to influences from without,
learning from all his experiences and growing in power
as he grows in knowledge.
Education is an individual matter. No two men
can be educated alike in manner or degree. They re-
spond to different Influences and grow in different
ways One becomes educated by way of schools and
colleges and fe another by life alone The measure
of mans education is the measure of his use in the
world.
