DOES EDUCATION PAY?

Frequently the cry Is raised by self
made men--who have not had the ad-
vantage OF higher education--that coll
lege training does not increase the
Inonsy-earning power of graduates.
College men always take the high
ground that the advantage Of educa-
ton should not be measured in dollars
They insist that the fuller life--made
possible by a broad education-exceIs
and should not be compared with
financial returns.
However, recent figures compiled at
Dartmouth make it possible to defend
college education on the fundamental
ground of dollars and cents. That his
toric school has gathered statistics
from the 100 surviving members of the
class of 1900 and finds that the average
income of these men is over $4,000.
One Of the graduates has an income Of
$4,000 and eleven others earn sums
ranging from $4,000 to $500. Conse-
quently there are few with great earn
ing power, and out OF the 100, few who
fall far below the $4,000 mark.
II other alumni associations would
collect similar figures they would be a
great aid to charlottesville would be
able to answer dollars-and-cen argu-
ments with tables which show the act
uaI achievements Of collegians.

THE WOMEN SUFFER.

One Of the most unfortunate phases
Of offenses against the LAWS not the
penalty imposed on the violators-but
the suffering that is caused innocent
victims. In most cases there is a
mourning mother, crushed wife or a
defenseless child-who must bear the
bitterest burden Of the crime. The
higher the station. the more severe the
penalty.
One Of the regrettable features Of the
conviction of the former state treas
urer Is the suffering imposed on a
charming and sensitive wife. In Fargo
q few months ago the wife and chill
dren OF q man who held an honored
position were the greatest sufferers
when his guilt became known. Dick
lnson furnished a similar instance.
II the man who goes wrong would
but stop 10 consider he is not the only
person who must bear the penalty
when the inevitable exposure comes
he would be less likely to violate the
law. Nothing can be said in behalf of
the offender who-realizing the dis
grace and odium that will result TO the
innocent members Of his famiIy-still
persists In wrong doing.

EXCELLENT LAW.

Governor West of Oregon evidently
has q pretty correct knowledge of the
value OF a good citizen.
Among the citizens Of Oregon there
Is a man named ALI Kilman, who has
lived in the state eleven years. During
that time he has been Industrious
has been good father and husband
maintaining a home for the members
Of his family--and shielding them from
harm.
However, it appears that at one
time in his career ALI Kilman was a
careless fellow. Recently officers have
entered the state of Oregon in search
Of Kilman, claiming that eleven years
ago. in Missouri. this man stole a COW.
They hold that he should be punished,
and they have submitted "requisition
papers" in the hope Of getting hold of
one whom they wish to regard as a
prisoner.
Governor West looked into the matter
and decided that the stealing of COW,
eleven years ago-has been more than
fully atoned for by eleven years spent
as good father and husband-as a
good citizen.
So the executive has announced to
The officers from Missouri that ALI Kill
man shall not be molested-- that he has
Droved himself the kind Of a man thai
Oregon wants and needs.
/ All of which stamps Governor West
OF Oregon as man who knows how to
do his own thinking land whose logic
IS worth all the statues that were ever
framed by little minds-who cannot
see above or beyond the bounds OF tbs
