Personal RecOIIectiOns of Clara Barton
By HON. PORTER H. DALE
No. 4

From the time when the first
troops went from her native state, 10
the last OF the war, she argued
with department heads aud officers
that there was work women could
do, even to the driving of mule
teams in relief expeditions, and
argued forceiully and with results
She schooled herself to fearlessuess
so that she could bind up the poor
crazed head at Cedar Mountain
raise the shot-torn form at Ante
tam, and breathe the fever-lader
atmosphere of the hospital and
prison. This, and much more,
because she saw and would help
without fear. All this in a spirit
that led her to go herself wherever
she would send a nurse, 50 that
in her later work, when it was over
and the time for parting came, it
was with few words softly spoken,
a finger touch on the little cross,
and, "When you want us again
we are there " You could not
have a life of higher purpose
among women for your incentive,
and you cannot realize what ain

give it up. Do you think you will
say farewell to her tonigho? 1t
will be somewhat as another has
said Of her; picture the sunlight
or the starlight and then try to say
goodbye to Clara Barton. There
is no parting from her. l have
ever since regretted that there was
no anticipation of the impromptu
response she gave that night, and
that no notation was made Of it..
1t was 50 spontaneous and cheer
full, and she held the audience so
enraptured, that no one thought Of
anything else till she had finished.
She always spoke quietly and
easily, and with such sympathetic
directness out of her wide expert
ence, that those who listened were
still and interested. l recall that
she said she owed everything to
her teachers, of one kind or another
that she was taught to perceive by
her brother who instructed her ii
many things a girl could, but sci.

ularly how to tie a horse other thar

I lessness, she took hold of him
expecting a tremendous struggle,
but at once she perceived that he
intended to make no resistance, and
how ridiculous was her method,
and Young ladies, she said,
that was the first and last time
i'll my life / ever tried to tackle a
man in that way. " Then she
spoke as if by inspiration, not at
all of herself, but following and
splendidly finishing what l had
attempted to say.
As we drove back drought the
silent city on that warm June night,
I felt that meeting with the young,
hopeful life of the school hod carried
Clara Barton's thoughts back thro'
many years and experiences, and
while l wondered of what she were
thinking, l thought best not to
interrupt her reflections. We
passed near the home of Edward
Everett Hale, and she spoke. of
him as one of the noted Americans
then living who understood as but
few did, what it really meant to
have such a country as ours.
While the conditions of the last
half century had developed many
Americans who were called great,
she considered DR.. Hale one of the
few who were not only great but
sane and good men. In fact she
thought of him as one of few really
great, well-poised men; and per-
haps the last of those she had in
mind who was then alive. l in
quired if she thought like men
would appear again if our country
were to pass through another period
of peril. well, we must hope
they would, she answered, for
though we should not think of evil
days unless compelled to, yet it is
probable they will come again. !"
I asked why she thought it prob
able such days would come again
aud she said: because there are
so few we'll poised men in national
affairs today, so few who have
known the results of real warfare,
and some who are anxious fol-
trouble merely because they enjoy
fighting and no sense of the bale.

Morris tribune., 1912-10-04
DOES A HIGH SCHOOL EDUCATION PAY?

The value of an education ought not to be estimated
in dollars cents but the deepening and enrichment
of the mental and spiritual life However, the commercial
spirit of our day is not satisfied with this. The value
of an education must be reckoned in material things
Does education pay in dollars and cents? This is the
question the United States commissioner of education
has sought not theoretically. but in fgu res
With this end in view he sent out to the great labor
of the country series Of questions bearing the
relation of education earning Briefly put
he discovered the following facts:
"'~ common school education increases IS wage
earning power fifty per cent. ~ Ill 81
high school education increases his wage earning
power one hundred per cent In the same investigation
statistics were collected covering thousands of of
boys who had entered some trade as vocation. ~ The.
object was to determine whether payed better finish
high school before learning the trade go into the
shop and learn the trade Statistics showed that
the school trained receiving average Of 60
per cent more wages per individual shop trained
men, and that they holding the responsible and
desirable positions. ~. .-,.... ~ y.s=.., "
Does ed ucation really pay? The practical value of
school training demonstrated by scientific from
an abundance of data at hand. By combining
statistics from the U. S. and frou ten thou
sand biographies of the prominent and women in
'sWho's Who in America J. W. Bashford was able
to show: -.....' .E5E: -
That no person without at least a school
education has become sufficiently noted placing
his such noted collection found in the
named cycIopedia.
. That this distinction has come to only in. 5000
of those who have had school education only
That it has come one 4O4 Of those who have had
high school education. y. ... e. 80 - -, 80
Thus the high school boy has his chances Of dstin-
guished success multiplied twenty-five times
of the school boy. .,a
Bishop Bashford also shows by data from the Fin
ancia Red Book the United States " that the winning
of wealth is $50 times by high school training
and that no better investment of time and money be
made by youth than in such training.
If it is question of success in the narrower
it is short sighted policy that considers the
school sufficient preparation, regards the high school
course a doubtful expenditure of time and money.
Nowadays competition with well educated is met IL
every considerable field of activity The fact that attend
ance secondary schools has increased nearly two and
oneha times in the last years indicates the kind
competition to be in the future and the
advantage will lie with the trained man.
The day when boy apprenticed himself to a man
to learn trade profession is practically past Men
are busy and the process slow The schools are
