LIE Sueur Center Leader: How much
is high school education worths You
never can tell till you try. just a
word now to the boys and girls, and to
the parents. For instance, now, there
is a LeSueur Center young man in the
srevice, who is a graduate of the local
school, and who sends word back that
he would not take lot Of real money
for his high school diploma. Yet, he
says, there was a time when he was
learning a profession, or trade, while
still in school, and after graduating,
when he often wondered why he could
not have done just as well if he had
quit at the eighth grade. But he did
not. He went through with it; took up
other work and learned useful profess
sion and when the call came and he
went into service, he was soon promot-
ed over men who had had a great many
years more working experience than
himself. But they had nothing back
of the experience. No foundation.
There are just as good young men and
women who do not have the foundation
but it takes them many long years to
get as far as the others. So finish your
high school course if possible.

John Ireland was a great churchman,
great citizen, great American. He
has left an imperishable mark upon the
thought and progress Of the last half
century That he who was, in the high
est and best sense, world citizen,
should have been a loved and loving
son of Minnesota, is cause for pride. He
is the last of the great pioneers who
made the Northwest what it is. Soldier,
citizen, patriot and priest, it is fitting
that as he is laid to rest there comes
the news that portends the end of the
terrible conflict in which he was a
staunch supporter of the rights of Amer
lea and of the interests of Christian civ
ilization. The memory Of the great
archbishop, veritable lion of the fold,
will long endure.
