The executive head of one of our largest corpor-
atoms, man who had worked his way up from the
bottom, went to Europe the other day to be gone a
month"; and the fact widely heralded, for it was
his first vacation in 80 years.

won't know how to enjoy his rest, now that he has
got it. The chances are that he will be worrying all
the time lest things will go wrong while he's away
What's the sense in shaving like that? Of what
value is success that leaves squeezed dry?
Moreover, the man who can't take vacation
for fear that things won't go right appraises him
self as failure executive. The test OF efficl-
ency in human organization is its ability to move

Congressman Lenroot declares that
he is not a candidate for the SEN
ate and that his present intention
is to seek reelection to the house.
He added that he has NJ present
intention of becoming a candidate

nishes a denial to the dispatch sent
out from Milwaukee to the effect
that Mr.. Lenroot would enter the
senatorial race, a dispatch printed
in good faith by the Record-Herald
of Chicago, The Daily Reporter and
many other newspapers. The sena-
torial campaign is nearly year

of time for announcement but there

ADVANTAGE, OF EDUCATION.

The last Napoleon lost Sedan, and
died in exile, because he went to fight
before he was ready. How many
young men and women, when the bat
tie of life is on, will fail because
they were not prepared for the CON
test! It is education alone which
enables us to fight from vantage
ground. They who do not have it
will not be able to stand when the
heavy charges are made on them.
Success must be won, and how can
it be done without a drilled mind,
like a skillful general, to lead the
assault? Do not accept ignorance
or partial preparation as your lot,
if by any means you can escape it.
It is not by jerks that the load is
moved. 1t is the steady pull that
counts. Spasmodic getting ready US
ually ends in no preparation at all
and consequent failure. The stu
dent who comes to school regularly,
and adds to each days acquisition
a little more knowledge is growing,
is laying by a sinking fund upon
which he can draw in the future, and
above all, he is gaining mental
muscle to enable him to combat the
difficulties of his later life. Bduca-
ton is a growth. If it be sudden,
like that of the mushroom, it will
amount to as little, if it be like that
Of the oak, twill be permanent and
useful

Ignorance would tear down exist
ing institutions and breed riot and
anarchy where there is now law
and order. It makes no discoveries,
no inventions, nor does anything to
better the condition of the human
race. It goes from the cradle to
the grave in a random way, with no
pilot, no objective point, and its
frail bark is often wrecked in this
tempestuous sea Of life. 1t fills the
land with vice and crime, builds jails
aims houses and penal Institutions,
and is the servant of nature. Our
school is here to counterfeit all this
evil influence and to make it pos
sible for every young man and young
woman in this county and vicinity
to fit themselves for some useful
and highly profitable calling in life
and that the world may be better
for their having lived in it.

part of many people to comprehend
that whatever injuries any business
in a community reflects injury upon
the people of that community Home
enterprises should be Loyalty sup

often the case that a business that

In view of the complaint that has
been made in certain quarters about
the cost of the state government
in Wisconsin. the results of the in
vestigation recently made by A. B.
Nye. state controller of California,
will have much significance. Wheth-
er Mr.. Nye was led to make his in
vestigation by the cry that has been
going up about the excessive cost
of the Wisconsin administrations
does not appear from the report, but
that matters little. The report, a
synopsis of which appeared in the
Reporter news columns "Wednesday
shows the per capita expenditure
for government in Wisconsin is low
ar than in most states. In making
comments it is always we'll to have
the facts in hand and play fair. Mr..
Nye has turned up some interest
ing figures that are worthy of study
and reflection.

EVANS LETTER
To the Editor of The Reporter.

To the Editor of The Reporter.
Dear Sir:-A somewhat lengthy
article appeared in the Reporter of
Aug. %, addressed to Elder w. H.
Thurston of this city. The answer
to my challenge, from Elder l. H
Evans, to substantiate his state
ment made at the Camp Meeting,
THAT the Catholic Church forbids
her people to read the Bible" The
want Of conclusive evidence must
have daWned upon Elder Evans as
he was about to close the article,
for he says in the last paragraph:
the word of God in the vernacular
Of the people is denied the Iaity
unless such word be printed with
annotations, notes and comments
approved of by the Catholic Church"
These notes, annotations and com
ments, if any, are simply guides lest,
as st. Peter says, II EpistIe Chap.
3, V. IS. "The unIearned and I'M
staple wrest the Scriptures to their
own destruction" The decree of
the Council of Toulouse 1923 was
passed to meet local conditions,
(some mutilated the scriptures to
promulgate their errors) and effect
ed the Catholic Church elsewhere
as little as laws made at Madison,
Wis, affect other parts Of the
United States. The Elder would
have US believe that the Bible could
not be had in the vernacular till
the so called Reformation had start
ed in Europe, for he says: This |
decree" (forbidding the Bible to be
into the vernacular) ''was
in force till after the beginning Of |
the Reformation in Europe. When |
Luther brought out his Bible in the |
vernacular Of the people and there /
was great demand for the scriptures, /
the Council of Trent gave consider
alton to the Scriptures in the yer
nacular of the people"
1t is true the Scriptures We're for

ton on the part of the Catholic
Church,
The Elder tells US, quoting from
the Prot. Magazine, that student
paid AS Ira for permit from the
pope>> to read a book Colporteur
Greco saw the curious document
with his own eyes. The student
bought a Protestant Bible and others
present Ionged to buy but had no
permit. Well they needed no per-
nit, their longing could have been
satisfied by going to a Catholic
book store and get Catholic
Bible. The document must have
been very curious, indeed, because
it was forgery, if it existed at
all. Catholics may not only read
the Bible in the vernacular, but are
urged to do so. The Church, how
ever, says, a correct Bible or no
Bible at all.

At this season while you are haul
ing the crop to market, is a good
time for you to reflect on the ad-
vantages of good roads, and how
much time and money are lost by
poor ones.
The report Of bumper crops all
over the country is rather tiresome
reading. It seems that someone might
speak a word of praise for the farmer
for raising such crops now after the
scoring they received for raising such
poor ones the past few seasons, or
will some professor pat himself on
the back and say, I did it with my
little speeches.
