What Is Education?

Herbert Spencer tells us in one
short, pregnant sentence that the
function of education is to prepare
us for complete living.
A true chord is touched by Sgd
ney Smith when he urges the, i'm
portance of happiness as an aid to
education. He says, eff you make
children happy now, you make them
happy twenty years hence by the
memory of it."
Equally wise are the words of Sir
John Lubbock: knowledge is a
pleasure as well as power. It
should lead us all to try with Milton
to behold the bright countenance Of
truth in the still air Of study"

and Attained Success.
It would be wonderfully interest
ing, and perhaps as wonderfully in
structive, to know how much genius
has been rspressed by the necessity
of following an uncongenial occupa-
ton for which the boy has been
unfit.
Corliss, the greatest improver Of
the steam engine since the days Of
Watt, was devoted to mechanics as
a boy, but found himself placed in
an office to learn bookkeeping,
which he would not or could not do.
Then he went into wholesale gro
Gerry, but he utterly failed there
also. Then, following his own bent,
he became the greatest engine
builder in the United States.
Ezra Cornell, the founder Of the
university which bears his name,
was apprenticed to his father,
potter, though he begged to be put
into mechanics. But later he went
into the work he loved and accumu-
lated wealth and honor Richard
Arkwright was smade" barber,
although in his boyhood he showed
great mechanical understanding.
Fortunately he formed the acquaint-
ance of clockmaker, got tools and
metals, and invented the spinning
jenny, one of the most intricate Of
machines, one which brought him
wealth and title.
Benjamin Franklin was obliged
to work with his father at tallow
chandlering until the insistent per-
suasions of an older brother obtain
ed his release from that trade and
an engagement with printer.
Smeaton, one Of the greatest of
English engineers, was placed in
law office, which he detested. He
doggedly cut loose, put on overalls
and went into mechanical work,
achieving the highest success and
renown. Against their inclinations,
Stephen A. Douglas was apprenticed
to cabinetmaker, Nathaniel P.
Banks to a machinist, and James K.
Polk to merchant. Benjamin Har-
rison, one of the signers of the
Declaration of Independence, was
put to studying medicine, which he
left to enter public life.
All of them had to fight their
way out Of uncongenial and insult

fields in which they, as boys, were
strongly inclined, and in which they
achieved honor for themselves and
for their country--George F. STRAIT

NORTH YAKIMA HIGH SCHOOL VARIED ACTIVITIES OF A NORTHWESTERN SCHOOL

In corresponding with a Washington
 |girl, deal of interesting news has come concerning one of the schools of her dis tant state. She is Miss Elizabeth Aumil-
 Ter of North Yakima, Wash, and she is a member of the present senior class of the North Yakima High school.
 Her section of the country has two un-
 usual features. One is it's connection with the history of the American Indians, and the other lies in it's being one section of the country where irrigation has been
 introduced. E. Yakima Indians
 One of the old landmarks in the tiny, quaint Catholic mission which was estab-
 lished in 1851 by pioneer missionaries to the Northern Pacific Indians In 1855 a treaty was made with the Yakima In- dians and they now occupy reservation of 1,11S,000 acres in the south-central part of the Yakima valley. On this reservation
 are 5000 allottee Indians, owning about
 900 acres of desirable land When the allotment is completed the reservation
 is to be opened for entry and each sIn-
 dian will be permitted to sell 60 acres
 from his allotted 80 acres of irrigated or
 irrigatable land. The government permits
 the sale of lands of deceased Indians.

 The question of water is an important one, s the rainfall is insufficient. By the Indian service there have been con structed some 40 miles of main canals to irrigate 6l,6O0 acres of agricultural land. So much is for the primitive inhabitants of the beautiful Yakima valley.
 In 1861 the first white settler made his way into this valley. Some 20 years later the Northern Pacific railway built through that territory Since that time there has been steady development of the country s agricultural possibilities. Irrigation has made a veritable garden from desert in that section of the northwest. This Is the largest irrigation project undertaken by the government. It embraces an area of 500,O00 acres of land and costs S, S25 900. Beside using the entire flow of the Yak ina river the government has included in it's plans the construction of great reser- voirs in which will be stored surplus water of the rivers great watershed.
 In practice irrigation Is operated in this way. A perpetual water right may be bought for a certain sum. varying in diff ferent canals from $50 to s100 In addi- tion to this is an annual maintenance fee of s1 or s1.5o. Payment of these charges entities the consumer to enough water to
