William Jennings Bryan took time
10 SC to the school house and talk
TO the children there-an experience
for the boys and girls that will be re-

OF the three divisions in the school
he gave helpful message, beginning
with the little folks whom he coun-

a lost lesson is just as much a hole
In ones education as a lost brick is
a hole in brick wall" To the in
termediate classes he said: Finish
your education, for there is even
more difference between attacking
life's problems with dull mind
than there is between cutting wood
with dull axe and with a sharp
one" To the high school classes, he
stressed the fact that a good heart
is of more Importance than an edu-
cation, telling the students to have
purpose and a high ideal, to be
unselfish, because the greatest and
happiest men are those who give
more to the world than they take
from it: and with his usual genius
in illustrating the truths he asserts,
cited the difference between the buzz
card and the bee-"one leaves moth
ing to the world after his death,
the other leaves the honey of his
life's work" The Great Commoner
has planted beautiful things in the
