You maybe known as a SuccesSulman,
you may have made m0ney-but there's
always that old desire TO know more,
to be able to talk more mteMgently, like
some ofhe college graduates you know.
People may say, Look at 'so-and-so.' He went
through COLLEGE and he's not as far as you are"
But does that prove anything? If you are called
a success without college education, where would
you be with a college education or its equivalent?
That's the point to consider-your own individual
case And there is a way to give yourself many of
the advantages Of a college education-to give
yourself splendid mental equipment broad
outlook, reliable judgment, sound thinking power
and clear expression.
Your college man doesn't remember the routine
work Of his classes but in that work. in the contact
with his professors in studying the text books, ne
trained his mind to work along certain, sure chan
nes-to reason, decision and action. And he either
consciously or unconsciously deliberately rinciden-
tally accumulated wealth Of facts, facts, FACTS.
The answer to the growing demand of the man OF
today for more facts is found in The Encyclopaedia
Britannica-that wonderfully complete COLLECTION OF
the worlds knowledge gathered together for YOU
Your place in life is just as big as you make it. 1t
isn't necessary to have college education. That's
not handicap that can't be overcome. All you need
to know TO be well educated you will find In the
Britannica It's there for YOU and in such readable,
easily grasped form that you can get it out make 1t
your own and use it every day.
At many institutions of learning you will find one
or two leading authorities in their particular fields
But nowhere will you find all of the foremost men
in their lines of endeavor except in the Britannica
When you read the Britannica you are assoclatlng
with the master minds of the whole world. You are
being taught by men who have spent their lives in
research experiment and application in every field
of knowledge What they have discovered and
evolved is now at your command in the Britannica
Too many men think Of the Britannica as work
Of reference only. 1t has broader, moro eomprs-

Clipping Starts Controversy


Professor Stowell had been invited to
speak as an expert, opposed to the pa
ciists, at the first of series of daily
forums called by the Emergency
Peace Federation.
Soon after he began, Mrs. Henry VIII
lard. chairman of the federation. pro-
duced a newspaper clipping of an arti-
Gle by DR.. Bernhard Dernburg, which
said the German people must have
moro voice in the affairs of their gov
eminent. That clipping started CON
troversy.
"You pacifists complain about a CEN
sorship in case of war;" said Professor
Stowell, "but the Germans got that by,
so that it could be used here"
81 object" shouted Joseph d. Can
non. 81 object to the insinuation that
we are working with Dernburg. IL is
an insult More than once you have
INDUCED in offensive innuendo."
1--WE are not amenable to German in
fuence." said DR.. Jordan. 1--WE sent
back all the money we received from
German sources. / understand il was
only small amount The expense Of
these rooms and of the pacifists is be
ing paid by individual contributions
II did not mean to imply that the
pacifists are working with the Ger
mans" explained Professor Stowell. 81
merely said the German censorship wac
not so rigorous that news items calling
for freer government in Germany could
not get through"
L. S. Already at War
"For what purpose should we go TO
war with Germany" asked DR.. Jor-
dan.
"To show as soon as possible that
Germany's violation of international
law was wrong" replied Professor
Stowell. eve should have gone to
war long ago, when Belgium's neutral
ity was violated. or when Austria i'm
posed its ultmatum on Serbia. 1t was
our duty to uphold international law.
The fact is that we have already gone
to war with Germany and have been
at war with her for months. We have
never been neutral. We sided with the
Allies months ago, else we would have
insisted on our rights to send our ships
TO Europe without interference by the
British fleet"
Cant we maintain our rights with
out fighting for them ?" asked Dr. Will
lam /. Hull, professor Of history and
international relations at Swarthmore
College.
mo right is a right unless it is
worth fighting for" answered Profess
sor Stowell.
Another session of the forum will be
held to-day.

Germans.

war is justifable. and that failure to

Uncle Sam land do not use more
light than necessary in your homes on
such lightless nights" No, the order
is not made in the interest of lovers,
it is intended as part of the great
heat, fuel, light and power conserva-
ton campaign. 1t is true that so far
as this city is concerned, its object
will not be secured, since 1t VIII not

steam plants. On the other hand, IN
any state where steam and water pow

called lightless nights. Request local
papers to urge householders to OBJ

the city census was taken there were
$3.50 tons on hand, while 1880 were

Cypsies' Christmas.

The gypsy Christmas is love fen>>1
and a carnival in one. The wandering
folk come together in tribal celebration
to choose their queen for the beginning
year. Each clan has its own usages
and superstitions. In Roumania the
cradle, so they say, of nomadism, the
gypsy queen is crowned with roses, and
roses tip her scepter and her wand. In
place of holly and mistletOe the hardy
little rosebud which blossoms at this
season on the apex of the hills is hon
ored not for it's sweetness merely, but
because of a fair Christmas legend
which the gypsy folk would make dis
tinctively their own.-Chicago Tribune.

MAY USE KENTUCKY STONE
Product Of Blue orass stats Believed
~ Coed and Cheap a. Davaelan
Article.

1t is believed that after the war is
over lithographic stone quarried in
Kentucky may be put on the mar
ket as cheaply as the Bavarian stone
which has been the principal source
Of supply for . long time. Small
quantities Of the Kentucky stone have
been sold already, but the high cost Of
labor in this country and the difficulty
Of working the stone have kept it out
Of serious competition with the foreign
product.
The European stone occurs in thin
layers, which require little but planning
and polishing after being removed
from the quarry. The American stone
Is in beds from three to ten feet thick
and must be sawed into thin layers be-
fore 1t is ready for use.
The Bavarian quarries have been
worked go long that vast piles Of waste
have accumulated that must be moved
from time to time, thus adding to the
cost Of production. The American
quarries have found . market for the
crushed refuse from their quarries,
and this by-product helps reduce the
cost.
The better grades of lithographic
stone bring i've to six cents q pound
for slabs ten BY twelve inches and
the poorer grades q cent and half
pound.
