Ing the fact that the curricula of most
schools and colleges contain as much
OF the chaff as the wheat OF learning
Until we know what to teach and
what not to teach, it is obvious tina;

education Is of no value unless it
makes a man more efficient to him.
self and to others
The mere memorizing of study is
worse than wasted time, yet this con-
dltlon unfortunately prevails to some
extent in nearly every institution.
The pupil is often ranked by what he
ls able to repeat, rather than by what
he actually knows.
however necessary academic edu.

neither the school nor the college can
take the place of experience.
The School of the World, or. rather,
the School of Experiences, is the post
graduate institution which plays no
favorites and which has no fads or
fancy courses
Real education does not end with the
academic course. 1t begins after that
course is finished
No amount of book learning, mem
orizing or academic training, even
under the most favorable conditions,
can be substituted for experience.

he leaves his school stops living. II

community. If he used the little sense

drown himself.

given him is negotiable merchandise.

places an inflated price upon it.
The education which he has re,
rightly used, is an asset; but
by itself alone 1t is a drag.
Education, then, has no value in
Itself. 1t is valuable only in SO far as
1t enables one to use himself to better
advantage.

The woman coming to earth life on

false sympathy. This nature demands
much love and petting and praise, and is
unhappy and morose without it. Many
married life of a Taurus woman has

While this nature is very quick tenn
percd il will always yield TO sincere

Ii this woman is united to a man

The Taurus woman should spend q
