FROM THOSE HIGH UP

Le those who have been successful advise you as to the kind of an edu- cation you should have. Men at the head of the affairs of our state and nation.
 Following are extracts from letters from some of Americas greatest men on the value of business education. Hon. Champ Clark, Speaker of the House of Representatives, Washing ton, D. C., says: Since l have been elected Speaker I have had it more thoroughly impressed on me than ever before that a thorough business college training is of exceeding im- portance." o. M. Dickinson, former Secretary of War, Washington, D. C., "Contemporaneously with taking my general education, 1 took a course in a business college and found it of value to me, not only generally, but in the practice of law" R. B. Glenn, eX-Governor of North Carolina: q cheerfully recommend to every one a practical business education for their children" Oswald West, eX-Gover- nor of Oregon: "The modern busi- ness school plays a large part in fit ting young men and women for their entrance into the business world" T. C. Pickett, Representative from Iowa The value even necessity of a prac- tical education to young people today is so obvious htat no argument should be required in support of it." E. F.. Noel, eX-Governor of Mississippi: q take pleasure in testifying to the inn portance of a practical business edu- cation, and to the efficiency of pro- perly conducted business school in imparting such knowledge" C. N. Haskell, eX-Governor of Oklahoma: "I consider practical business educa- ton of the greatest importance" !" John W. Kern, United States Senator; Everybody ought by this time to understand that business men and business women need business educa- tion on the same principle that a doc- tor must have a medical education" :" Joseph M. Cary, Governor of Wyom- ing: "Too much cannot be said in behalf of good commercial educa- tion. I do not believe that such an education can be too highly recom- mended."
 Shouldn't the above evidence settle the question with you as to what kind of an education is needed?

HARD STRUGGLE FOR MOUND

London.-Three waves OF German
Infantry dashed yainly up the ridge
and toward the trenches Whlch the
British stormed north OF the Ancre.
Nowhere did the Germans even reach
the trenches. Caught by the concen-
trated fire hundreds OF British bat
teries, they were hurled back with
heavy losses.
The British victory was OF greater
magnitude than at first reported. The
German prisoners totalled II officers
and 76l men, and a number OF ma
chine guns and mine throwers wers
taken.
The German statement admits
part only OF the success the British
War Office announced Through con
ceding a small withdrawal north OF
the Ancre near BaillescOurt farm,
whore the counter attack was made,

attacks south OF the river were re-

In the battle which began in the
neighborhood of Miraumont Saturday
morning and has continued intermit-

was to the left OF the centre, where
the British sought TO get mastery OF
a mound rising about forty feet. with
a sunken road across IT,
The Germans realized the great tao.

fringed with machine gun emplace-

hghting, but the British steadily
passed forward until they had almost
the crest
Shortly after sunrise. however, the
Germans launched a strong counter
attack with fresh troops. The Brit.
ish were forced to yield ground under
weight of numbers. but supports were
rushed TO them and the withdrawal
ceased. The Germans had regained
part OF the mound, but nevertheless
the British line ran well up the slope
The German losses arg known to
have been very considerable. and II
would be useless to pretend that we
did not have to pay the price OF vic.
