THE COLLEGE "BUGA-
BOO IS NOW NEAR
AT HAND

Now comes along the time
when the college bugaboo hOvers
over the land, Mothers and faith
ers are beginning to worry about
the expenses of a course for
Johnnie and Susie at the fashion,
able school where the neighbOrs'
boys and girls are going. Father
has decided to 60 little more
frayed all winter, and mother is
going to do without the dress
she had planned. The rest of the
family will also wear little less
and cut out the luXuries for the
sake of the "higher education"
that Johnnie and Susie must
have.
What a lot of bunk there is
connected with this college ed
ucation stuff. Most of the John
nies and S1sies have all their
brains will hold if they have
gone through high school and
worked as they should. The col
lege is only apt to make them
more snobbish and less htted for
life, rather than giving them bet
ter equipment.
This is straight talk, and per-
haps ont of keeping with the l.
deas of many well-intentioned
people, but iJ is our candid opin'
ion of the matter after many
years of watching the college
products come home along with
the young folks VINO entered at
once that real schooi-the
school of life.
If we 60 to statistics, we will
find about an even break. There
are as many men and women who
have profited because their orig
lnality has not been crushed out
by fixed groove as there are
those who have been all pattern
ed alike by professors long since
out of touch with the modern
world.
Of conrse, if Johnnie or Susie
are bent on professional courses,
and are bound and determined TO
specialize. the college perhaps is
essential. But If Johnnie and Susie
are made of the right sort OF
stuff, and are sincere, they will
get the college training without
the mother and father starving
themselves to death for four
years.
This is a rather drastic way
of looking at the matter, and
is perhaps a little pessimstlc.
But there has been enough
bunk written on the other side of
the question.
Something should be done for
the families who have suffered
long enough.-Yazoo Sentinel.

was told at the city hall Friday
afternoon when man. aged up
on whose face deep lines of sor-
row were plainly visible, ap-
piled to Permit Clerk Rooney
for permission to give public
lectures upon the streets of this
city. He was accompanied by a
sad looking little woman, whose
manner and look told only too
plainly that hers had been life
of anything but happiness, and a
young girl, whose age was given
as Is years, and who the man
said is his daughter.
The man stated that his lect
ures were purely of nature ap-
pealing to all people, and par
ticularly the young. live life of
Righteousness and goodness, and
to avoid associations and CON-
panions that would lead them
into trouble and bring suffering
and prlvation upon themselves
and their loved ones. He said
his life had been a life of sorrow
and he hoped a recital of the
story would help others to learn
that we must bear our burdens
patiently and that the great
power will bring us safely
through every trial.
When asked for a narrative of
his troubles he told pathetic
story. He said that his uame is
Jack Rail, and that a little over
Is years ago he was arrested and
charged with the murder OF an
old fisherman named G. W. Bus
kin. He was tried by the United
States court in Muskogee, Okla,
and was sentenced to be hanged.
He secured a new trial and was
sentenced to 80 years imprison
ment, but secured another trial,
this time being sentenced to lif e
Patiently he served his time
while undergoing these trials,
and finally was sent to the ted,
eral prison at Leavenworth,
Kan, there to remain for the re-
mainder of his life, as he sup
posed. Soon after his cOnvlc'
ton his daughter, Cora, was
born, and through every trial his
devoted wife, who had ever be-
lieved in his innocence, remained
faithful and worked for his re-
lease.
Finally. after Rail had been in
prison IS years, a man named
Joe Rogers died in Oklahoma, in
hospital, and upon his death
bed confessed that he had killed
the fisherman, Rogers, and that
Rail was innocent of any knowl
edge of the CRIME. The faithful
wife took up this confession and
finally, about five months since,
succeeded in having her husband
released from the penitentlary
and he came home to,the devoted
woman and little girl who had
loved him and had faith IN him
through every adyel sity.
Through an attorney Rail has
taken up the subject with the
United States government and
an effort is being made to have
him reimbursed for his services
while in the penitentiary. He
believes he will be successful IN
getting it. In the meantime he
and his wife and daughter are
going about giving what he calls
his ssstreet lectures fer the sake
