A HOMEMADE PAPER.
THURSDAY. SEPT. IS, 1915

Young people do not always
see eye to eye with their parents
when the question of school
comes up each year, and, too
frequently, the Younger ones are
allowed to have their way while,
at the same time the parents
know that they are doing their
children an injustice that can
never be overcome. In the first
place consider the actual cash
value of a well educated man to
the community, as compared
with that of one who is barely
able to read and write. The av-
erage wage In Kentucky, of an
uneducated young man is 5000 a
year, while the average salary of
a well educated young man is
1900 year. That certainly
should mean something TO any
boy. Then, again, consider the
pleasure to be had from an edu.
cation. 1t enables one to appre-
ciate all the great writer's of the
world, both of the present day
and of the past, and also to fol-
low with pleasure all the modern
inventions and to keep pace with
the world. Many times it en-.
ables man to pass hours that
would, under other circumstan.
ces, be very wearying, in read
ing of what others are doing or
have done. 1t must be consider
ed, too, that an education is one
of the easiest things in the
world to carry around, that it
costs practically nothing to ac-
quire and stays with a man all
through life. Take an average
boy about to start out son his
own hook" to make his way in
the world. If he is we'll educat-
ed he stands a much better chance
to get a good position at a salary
THAT will enable him to live in
Qmfort and save something for
Riny day, while at the same
he, he holds an equal chance
p an uneducated one to take
6sition as laborer, should
occasion demand it. In fact,

if his school training has been
what it should be, he is better
prepared to hold any kind of a
position for the reason that his
disciplinary training in school
has caused him to form the habit
of doing we'll anything that he
starts at and enables HIM to use
his brains to the best ability.
1t is hard sometimes for young
folks to see the value of educa-
ton, especially when the weather
is pleasant outside and various
forms of recreation are calling,
but the ones who stay in school
and study faithfully are the ones
who get on the best in later
years. The mind of a young
person is more open to know
ledge and more retentive thar
that of an Older person, and two
years in school for anyone under
Is years of age is worth more
than 5 years is to an older person.
And all of thes article applies
equally to boy or girl.

of the extra traffic there would

ling or Winchester, and also how
much easier it would be to drive
to those places with a horse AND
buggy if the roads were fit to
travel on. The other counties
towards the Bluegrass have pixies
to their limits, and Powell should
not stay too far behind. With
the aid offered by the state for
good roads, it is not heavy bur-

He also said that no daiYyman had

since DR.. Glenn had been inspector.
adding that DIR. Glenn kept these scores

they were public documents and that
