There is some ground for the
popular reproach that schooling as
now given often makes youths i'm
practical, less able to help themselves
and shirkers of hard and distasteful
work. Yet most depends after all on
the metal that the youths are made
Of Last summer a Russellite pass
ing along a country road thru a ranch
some miles from town, came upon a
cow stuck in the mire at some springs.
Hard at work getting the animal out
of the mud was the young ranchman
and his wife. The latter had remov-
ed her shoes and stockings and was
wading in the deep mud in her
practical efforts to free the COW.
Both youth and his wife were state
university students. Many would
fancy that girl who had gone to
college could and would only sit on
the bank with a silk parasol over her
head and offer the COW some fudge or
a tea wafer to coax her out of the
quagmire- Rtppenthal in

sharp points are all mellowed by
mother love. She sees again the lit
tie ones at play about the house and
croons back answers to their lisping
words. Then her mind wanders out
and over to the hillside where the
small white monument rises to be
kissed by the first morning rays, and
she thinks-if it had only been other
wise. Again does her mind cross
over to a distant state where
Jim is, where her little, girl is
