COLLEGE BOYS and
CIRLSK KEEP GOING UP
Form Large Glass That Make Up the
Professions, Politicians, Scholars
and Advanced Business Men.
EDUCATION KEY TO SUCCESS
Stir An Ambition in Your Child to
Seek College Education, Even
at a Sacrifice.

The annual nigeria of young people
is on from town and country to col
lege. The number that is leaving Man
son and vicinity is about the same as
usual.
1t is said that only out of every
100 pupils graduated from the high
schools of the country ever attend col.
lege. There are many good reasons
for this, and that is the lack of ambi.
ton, and often the Strengthened cir
cumstances of parents. The son and
daughter have gone through school,
and now they must hustle for them.
selves. A large per cent OF the boys
eventually go into business near nome
and large per cent of girls marry
after few years of school teaching.
There is one thing sure, and that
is that those who do attend college
are the boys and girls that keep 60
ing up. They form the large class
that make up the professions, poll
ticians, scholars and advanced bust
ness men of the country. Practically
all of the men who are members of
the congress and judiciary are gradu-
ates from our best colleges. Take it
amongst the prominent men in all
occupations, and you will find they
are college graduates. The men who
are reaching distinction and making
something of themselves more than
the ordinary have their degrees. In
fact success today, in many of the
higher professions, and political pre-
ferments, are men who have received
a college education.
The percentage of those who grad
uate and succeed in life is very high,
with those who do not. OF
course a few turn their talents to
wrong usuage, but it is the exception
and not the rule.
The boy or girl who has any ambi-
ion to make for himself a mark in the
world must have an educational in
,piration. The way to success isl
argely through our colleges.
Mark the boys and girls of even
his neighborhood, who have gained
distinction, and you will find that they

Exhibits were not so numerous as il
former years on account of the rains
and bad roads, but the quality was
good, and floral hall looked very pref
ty and showed many very fine exhibits
Fruit, of course, was scarce as there
are so few apples, but enough was
shown to show that some fine apples
were raised in the county as we'll as
grapes, plums, etc. The jellies and
canned fruits were fine display and
it was hard for the judges to decide in
the culinary department. The space
was crowded with delicious bread,
cakes and pies. Many fingered at the
department of needlework, which was
well filled with beautiful specimens
of needlework and exquisitely sewn
quilts. Crawford county schools are
improving all the time and the educa-
tional department merited much
praise. A case from the Denison col
lege interested many and the flowers
and paintings had many admirers. One
interesting feature was the table of
corn raised by school boys. Supt. F..
N. Olry had furnished seed in the
spring. There was an excellent dis
play of grain and vegetables, also
fowls of different kinds. Fewer cat

an attentive crowd all the time. With

been impossible, but continual work
kept the track so that there were
some interesting races. The 2:18

were college graduates. Compare
their success with the boys and girls
who concluded that it was too hard
work to make that four years straight.
In fact the only boys and girls who
have really risen above the mediocre
are the ones who are doing it through
college work.
We know family that the only cap
ital that they propose to give their
children is college education. No
resolution of the parents could be
worth more, or its results so far
reaching. These parents are giving
their children somc.nir: that money
can..ot purchase. or that their c1:ii
dvc'l cannot lose no matter how or
whelt they speculate. 1t is an asset
better than any insurance policy on
earth, and better than to leave them
much yealth.
Take the advice Of one who knows
what he is talking about, and stir
an ambition in your child to seek a
college education even if the sacrifice
is great on the part of both parent
and child in a financial way. There
is a place waiting for every boy or
girl who can deliver the goods.
A college graduate remarked in the
hearing of the writer recently that
the greatest happiness in store for
her was the knowledge that she was
able to secure more of it. 1t not only
means financial success, but it means
contentment and happiness. Go and
try it.-MansOn Journal.

Des Moines, Sept 16-Sunday, Oc.
tober 9th, will be observed through
out Iowa as tuberculosis day. For
several years a day has been set apart
by the national association on which
pulpits throughout the country, by
sermon or address, have treated some
phase of the prevention of tubercu-
losis. Last year the day was most
successfully observed in Iowa. In
some counties every pulpit in the coun-
ty was occupied with an address on
some phase of the prevention of the
white plague. 1t may be safely as
sumed that there will be general re-
spouse on the part of the clergy to
have this subject presented. The de-
partment on tuberculosis will supply
abundant material and outline for the
preparation of such addresses, and in
addition will be glad to send out free
literature for distribution. Should
October 9th not be available, then
any day near to it will do just as we'll.
The intimate cooperation which this
has had with the clergy
of Iowa insures the success of this
day. For any information address A.

AN election was held recently at
Dunlap on the question of issuing
bonds for $4,000 for the purpose of ex-
tending the city water works system.
One hundred and fifty-two votes were
cast in favor of the bond issue and
only fourteen against. 1t is thought
that work will be started at once so
as to be completed before winter sets
