Am I An Educated Man?

That seems like an utterly fool
ish question. I was born and rails
ed in poverty and never went to
school more than twelve months
in my life. I have lived in the
backwoods most Of my 80 years
and have never associated with
cultured or educated people. |
have worked like a slave and have
had very little time for home
study. [ have not been able to
buy many books, even if I could
have found time to study them.
Ny whole life has been about as
unfayorable to the idea Of getting
an education as any life ever was.
But once in awhile an incident
happens that makes me wonder
where | really do stand In the
scale Of knowledge. In talking
with the country people that I
mostly associate with, I find that
they very often don't under
stand what / am talking about.
[ start out with the impression
that any average person certainly
ought to know as much as | know
about ANYTHING. But I find
that many subjects that are per-
|fectly familiar to me are entirely
new and strange to those around
me. Literature has been my con-
suming passion, and I have Dip
ped a little into the various arts
and sciences, but / have never
claimed to have more than a
smattering" of anything: And
yet { find that the average conn
try school teacher is often unable
to keep up his end Of a converse
Etlon with me on any Of these
things. His mind seems to pick
its way like a blind thing over
ground where my mind is perfect
ly at home.
And SO I have been wondering
here Of late>if l really am an edu-
Gated man. And if so, how did it
happeng Where, when, and how
did I get an education? You can
search me-.

THIS ONE THING I DO.

You may have noticed that
Good News does not print much
in the line Of common ordinary
devotional" articles such as
are found in all religious papers.
I mean the little goody-goody
preachments about things that
everybody knows as well before
reading as afterwards.
Now such articles are all right
in their place, and if I had more
room l might print some Of them
But they can be found anywhere
and everywhere. All the papers
are full Of them. All people read
them, more or less, and then sc
right ahead and pay no attention
to them. So what would be the
use for me to take up my little
|space giving the world some more
Of that sort Of mush?
This paper has one special mis-.
sion that seems to me more i'm.
portant just now than any mere
"preaching' would be. That mis-.
sion is to deliver a message of dis.
|pensational truth that is meat in
due season for this present time
l have seen a great light that the
world. at large has not seen. Not
that the light has been hid in q

of the whole world. And. the rea.

Is because they don't want to see
They are blinded with their creeds
and their isms and their worldly
interests, and they. refuse to rec.

But the time has come when the
world cannot ignore the truth

The Fourth Liberty Loan Drive will
start out with a wonderful spirit of
patriotic enthusiasm, if the county
meeting at the Opera House last Tues
day can be taken as criterion. Mem
bers of the Liberty Loan and War
Board committees were present from
every nook and corner of the county
and they came for business-real war
business. The meeting was called
to order at eleven o'clock by county
chairman T. j. Cavanaugh, who called
K. w. Boyle of Grand Rapids to ex-
plain the provisions of the loan and
the t"'Volunteer Plan" In the after
Grand Rapids News delivered one Of
the most scholarly and intensely in
teresting addresses ever made in Paw
Paw. Pupils of the school from the
seventh to twelfth grades inclusive to-
gether with their teachers were pres
ent for the afternoon address, and the
speaker lauded the spirit which was
responsible for their presence. It is
to be regretted that every person in
the entire county could not have had
the opportunity to listen to this mas
terful address. Attorney James E.
Chandler of South Haven contributed
to the patriotic spirit of the day, with
a short talk, which was brimful of
war time loyalty. The remainder Of
the afternoon was taken up with the
preliminary details of the loan, the
exact amount of which has not yet
been settled. 1t is probable that the
total amount of the loan will approx

The loan opens Saturday, September

dominating the volunteer subscription
plan, and the thought which should
sink deep into the heart of every
citizen is this:-Why should it be
necessary for any patriot to solicit
any other patriot for what every pa
triot knows to be his duty? This will
he the slogan of the campaign, and if
the temper of the meeting Tuesday
can be taken as an indication, Van
Buren, county will Go Over the Top
with a vengeance, and there will be
no room in any community in this
county for any Stacker after this
drive is over. 1t should be mention
ed in this connection, that the Opera
House was donated for the meeting
Tuesday by that loyal and patriotic
pioneer, G.. w. Longwell Sr.. and the
services Of the Lawton band boys were
also contributed to the success of the
cause.
