A writer in a recent issue of a mag
azine answering the question, Does an
education pay?" puts his reply in this
foreeful manner:
Does it pay to learn to make life a
glory Instead of a grind? Does it pay
to open a little wider the door of mar
row life? Does it pay to add power to
the lens of the microscope or tele-
scope? Does it pay to know how to
take the dry, dreary drudgery out of
life? Does it pay TO taste the exhilara-
ton of feeling ones power unfold? Does
it pay to push ones horizon farther out
in order to get a wider outlook or clear
er vision ."
BY education we attain all the rights
and privileges that permit, us citizen
ship in the world of the past and pres
ent. We win this broader citizenship,
first by perceiving our right to it, then
by proceeding to work for it, The daily
paper. the baker on the corner, the poo
pie we meet in the daily round of our
occupation or amusement are impor-
tant and necessary to us But in our
Intercourse with them we must not for
get that Plato took care to pen the
words of Socrates for us; that Putarch
wrote the lives of illustrious Greeks and
Romans to provide us with exact proto-
types of men in our own streets. that
Shakespeare packed the world away in
book for us to carry in the pocket
This many countried kingdom of the
past is rightly as much a part of us as
the republic is in which we dwell and
vote
The good citizen occupies all his do
main and moi a part of it. He lives in
the ever expanding republic of his in
creasing intellectually, and not merely
in the few rooms where he keeps his
body. It is only by becoming a citizen
of the greater world of the past that We
comprehend the meaning of our own
times and of our own country. The
past is forever accommodating. and its
accumulation makes the present If we
begin to study environment in this con
ception of it. its meaning will loom
large and significant before us 1t has

cicero advised the Romans to be "a

Just as no one knows family init

come to his full power of citizenship
until he has become, to some extent at
least, a student of the members of the
family Of nations which in our time are
striving toward the brotherhood of uni
versal peace. To read history with un-

than the purpose of public education,

she was making one of her trips from

one Of the automobiles aboard was on
fire. Hundreds of passengers were on
deck getting the air. Among these
were many women, and when they
saw the smoke they became excited
and for a while it was feared there
would be a panic.
Captain Ford called the crew and
they fought the flames with the fire
apparatus on board the boats. The
automobile was in the middle of the
driveway and for this reason it could
not be run overheard. as the rules
require. Although the fire was a
stubborn one the crew managed to
get it under control and prevent any
of the other automobiles from catch
