he went to college. This same boy

him loose.
A young man wanted to go away
to college but he had girl at home.
He could not leave her. Soon a young

Should /? Con /? Will /?


To every boy and girl growing In
strength and looking forward to life
with hope and ambition. the three
questions at the head OF this article
are bound TO come whenever the
question OF going to College is rats
ed.
The writer well remembers how
the three questions came TO him
about thirty years ago when he was
going to school In q western city.
The first one. Should I? was never
argued at all. SO strong was the
love of study that II seemed only
the natural thing to continue II as
long as Il was possible to do 90.
Nor does Il need TO be argued by
many who will read this article.
Every school house turnout the noun
tains is full OF boys and girls who
know they should.
All boys and girls, however, are
not alike and some will falter at
TINS pu'oeoh' LIZ any such f'nheh-
Ter that an education. good and
thorough. opens many a door to OPP
portunity that would otherwise r.
main closed; that an education Is
more necessary today than ever be-
fore II one wishes to succeed: that
II brings a satisfaction that nothing
else can bring. II is time. money.
and energy well spent. Whoever heard
OF anyone regretting going to college?
The second question. Can II bother
I'd the writer and II bothers a great
many boys and girls. He was
poor boy and did not see how he
could get to college. But faith never
faltered and the way opened far

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

The following letter has been re-
ceived by The Citizen from a friend:
Hyden, KY, Aug. "a, IL.
Dear Editor:
IL Is rumored here that q disease
has been brought to this country,
directly from Italy which has a dead
ly effect and that the State Board Of
Health knows no remedy for 1t, nor
do they understand II. II is further
reported that there are some cases
of 1t In Berea.
! think a word In The Citizen about
this might be reassuring to your
readers and prospective students.
Yours respectfully.
Chester Dixon.
We wish to assure our friends that
there is no truth In that report.
There is no new and dangerous dis
ease in Berea nor In Kentucky. We
surrnise that the cause of this scare
Is the report widely circulated in
our daily papers concerning a GER
tain disease, pellagra. This is a pc
culiar disease which has been known
for a long time in some parts of
Europe. Lately 1t has been found that
there are few cases OF it in this
country. The disease. however, is
not contagious and so we have no
need to fear It. A few cases of such
a disease among 100, 200, 900 people
ought scarcely to attract our atten-
tion.
Right here We wish to state that
Berea Is one OF the most healthy
towns in Kentucky. While typhoid
is raging in other places we are al
most free from It. The college and
part OF the town is supplied with
spring water from the mountains five
miles away and typhoid is unknown
among the exclusive users of this
water.

article remember that all OF the ex-
penses need not be met at once, and
that the money comes more easily

whole Of the battle is In making the

THE COOK STOVE BEFORE LATIN
Continued from FIRST page.)

Of what they were made. Today we
buy the machine made cloth and most
Of the work, except the care of the
house and the cooking OF the food,
has passed or is passing out of the
home. Many of our girls for various
reasons are not taught to do this
work. No training is given the girl
Of today to take the place of this
long experience and practice Of her
grandmother. We ask ourselves the
question. are the girls of today as
competent and as well educated as
were their grandmothers and Is there
not danger of each generation know
ing a little less than the preceding
one?
Much of the girls time from six to
eighteen is spent In the schoolroom
out Of touch with the concerns Of the
home. She comes out of school, Of
ten to marry at once, with little or
no preparation for, this greatest Of
all responsibilities, home making.
This ought not to be. No girl should
be for any great length of time out
Of touch with the affairs of the home.
She should have systematic instruc-
tion in household affairs during these
years, taking each year while in
school some branch of household
science.
The widest education is none too
good for one who is to become .
homemaker as most women do be-
come. but no girl should study Latin
or any college subject before she
is able to kindle fire in a cook
stove, control 1t, cook q plain appe-
thing meal, and know what foods
will give a balanced diet for her
self and family.
