"They are MANS" said the Spirit 'and they cling to

beware of this boy for on his brow see that written

In our day. as in that of Dickens, Ignorance and Want
are the twins of Despair In our day too Ignorance Is
the more to be dreaded for through all the ages there
has been written on the brow of Ignorance that which IS
Doom unless the writing is erased.
There are only two reasons for failure today-natura

In this age and on this continent who has the right to
hold himself bameless if he fail through ignorance?
Has he whose time is squandered while his possibilities

Or he whose youth was but a succession Of broken
resolutions and whose mature manhood is period OF
supine resignation?
or he to whom Opportunity appeals in vain because
he will not open his eyes heed the myriad voices that
thunder through the ages?
We have done much to erase the writing from the brow
of ignorance not wifu The American Public School has
created an atmosphere in which the brand of ignorance

vided medium through which young men may insure
themselves against want.

need to shrink in terror from those most terrible of his

HOW THE PEOPLE ARE BEING WORKED

The state highway board still persists of using the

pay for their road work as they 90 along are given no
assistance The policy is unfair and unjust and seems
to have been adopted at the dcaon of road bond buyers

encouraging such issues.
