EDUCATION.

The academic school has two dis
tinct provinces: first. to teach the
three RS. in order that one may not
be illiterate; secondly. to impart
knowledge beyond necessity, which
will enable its receiver better to meet
present and future conditions.
Expert and unbiased educators do
not question the value of the first. but
are not united regarding its second
purpose.
How far should one go accidentally.
If he would enter life properly pre-
pared to meet it's requirements?
Opinion is divided. Upon general
principles, however. 1t may be said
that one is not likely to become over
educated academically. notwithstand-
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. 1t is obvious that
more than small proportion of the
waste cannot be eliminated
The higher forms of education un-
doubtedly discipline the mind and
make one better able to grasp condi-
tIons and to make good" in every di-
rection.
Education is of no value unless 1t
makes man more efficient to him
self and to others
The mere memorizing of study is
worse than wasted time, yet this con-
dition unfortunately prevails to some
extent in nearly every institution.
The pupil is often ranked by what he
is able to repeat. rather than by what
he actually knows.
However necessary academic edu-
cation may be in preparatory sense.
neither the school nor the college can
take the place of experience.
The School of the World. or, rather.
the School of Experience. 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, men,
orizing or academic training. even
under the most favorable conditions.
can be substituted for experience.
The man who stops learning when
he leaves his school stops living. 1t
would be better for him. and for the
community. If he used the little sense
he has as weight with which 20
drown himself.
Many a college graduate goes out
into the world iaboring under the
delusion that what the college has
given him is negotiable merchandise.
salable in any market. and usually he
places an inflated price upon it.
The education which he has re-
ceived. rightly used. is an asset; but
by itself alone it is drag.
Education. then. has no value in
itself. 1t is valuable only in so far as
it enables one to use himself to better
advantage.
The parade of the cap and gown,
on the college campus. IL not the
march of real soldiers on a real field
of conflict. Each cap and each gown
should not stand for graduation. but
rather be the insignia OF better
preparation for entrance into the
School of the World.
To know may be to know nothing.
To know how to use what you know
| counts.

as the cold weather comes on, by
gowns of canton flannel made long.
The small boys pajamas hardly need
description. They are made of light
cotton materials. The pants are
fastened at the waist with a tape
which is run through hem in the

used for the canton flannel pajamas

For the comfort of little ones who

New York, June 1S.-Ray Caldwell kept the Yankees on the winning track by heating Cleveland in the first game of the series at the Polo Grounds yesterday afternoon by a score of to 3. This was the sixth consecutive victory for New York
 MT. Caldwell did not reap the full possibility of glory, because he failed to entertain with any of his astute home run hitting specialties. He contented himself with scoring a whole flock of runs and pitching brand of ball that was above reproof until the closing session. The score:

 Baseball Interest.
 .Is baseball queries middle western editorial page. losing it's grip ?i Is it waning in interest ?'
 An exceedingly larg number of folks would answer yes. But base
 
 than any other amusement or recre- ation is waning for the time being under the red shadow of the great est sorrow and the greatest disaster the world has ever known-the red shadow of two million dead and an ether two million on their way to die. Baseball hasn't suffered as much as. the theater where good shows as we'll as bad have had to struggle for even brief runs. But TOT all that baseball attendance has been better than most club owners figured it would be and there is still keen in- terest left in close races now featuring the major leagues.
 There will be at least three clubs in the American league in the race until september this season, and possibly four or five in the National. And the fanatic, in these fortunate cities, will be just about as frerlzied as ever, even though general interest be a trif1e subdued in comparrson.
 Sporting Art.
 It would be hard to say which of these stands out as the most artistic sight for sporting vision to gaze upon:
 l. Larry Lajoie stepping into a fast one.
 2. Iris Speaker circling out for a long drive.
 g. Ty Cobb hitting the dirt into third.
New Britain herald., 1915-06-18
2 'i(sg (g29S 5!SH! !:!:!:! J:

A. Chick Evans playing full ron to the green.
 5. Mclaughlin at the moment of his serve.
 6. Eddie Mahan returning punt through broken field. z
 Each of these would have it's fol- lowing, but the combined effect shows that sport has its beauty and -hythm as we'll as it's thrill.
 Tn driving Cobb out of baseball, MT. Johnson will have the hearty support of practically all the pitchers and catchers in the American league. s
 But it is difficult to drive Ty ten inches away from the plate, much less beyond the confines of eight large hall parks.
 Concerning MT. Wood.
 When at the top of his stride, Joe Wood must be ranked as one of the hardest pitchers to beat that ever faced the ash. Wood hasn't the dura- hility or the stamina that Alexander and others carry, but in so far as the .stuff'' Is concerned he has no su- .. perior.
 This dope stands proved by the records, and 1912 was the fast season that found Wood in good physical shape Through that campaign he won tlirty-four games and lost but five. for mark of .872.
 He hasn't been physically fit since. but 1915 stands as a fair example of the point we are shooting at AL though only able to work at wide in- tervals most of the year, Wood has lost but one game out of seven starts, and almost without exception he has been extremely effective from first to last. Tn this condition Wood is sure to be vital factor in the flag race, for he is a pitcher, when in good physical condition, who has the knack of winning an abnormal percentage of his games
 Needless.
 Wont you" asks a Yankee fan, please put in boost for Doc Cook ss base runner ?'
 The genial Doc doesn't require any boost as a base runner. The record $ boost enough. Although batting under .250 he is next to Cobb with a matter Of 25 steals to his credit, These figures alone shout encomiums letter and louder than any large bale of words could ever hope to do.

 One Reason.
 There may be several reasons why Francis Oiumet and Walter Hagen have landed in front in the last two American open golf championships. Some of these reasons might easily have, to- 9do with driving, approaching and putting. But certainly there is no greater reason than the exceeding ly fine and easy going dispositions shown by both. This ,emperam ent that makes light of all trouble and that is above any missed shot is the vital factor, after all; for where there gre any number who can drive, ap- proach and putt-when rneir nervous system is under contro1-there are only a very few who can march along without permitting harassing throbs to upset their sgame-especially after a tough break of fortune runs in an extra stroke or so.
