WHO ARE THE NOTABLES?

The second edition of who's Who
in America" (from the press of A.
NJ Marquis & Co., Chicago, contains
1900 pages of brief biographies, with
out eulogy, criticism or comment, of
such persons now living in America
as have become noted as factors in
the progress and achievement of the
age. "Endeavor has been made"
says the editors, ito include all
Americans of more than local note in
all lines of useful effort No name
is inserted or omitted for financial
consideration; the book is sold on it's
merits.
With a view to determining what
effect education of the various grades
has had on success in life effort was
made to ascertain the school training
of each of these men and women "of
more than social note," and 1852 on
the United States list were thus
educationally classified.
According to the best estimate we
can make from the latest census re-
turns, there are in the United States
4O,782,0O7 s, persons over twenty-one
years old. These are divided educa-
tionally about as follows:
Class without school training,
4,6S2,498.
Glass with only common school
training, 32,S62,951.
Class with common and high
school training, 2,165,357.
Class with college Or higher edu-
cation added. 1,O71 POI.
Now the question is, how many Of
the eight thousand distinguished citi-
zens of the United States on the
Who's Who list came from each Of
these classes?
The 4,62S,49 of Glass 1 furnished
81; the 32,S62,951 of Glass 2 furnished
sos; the 2,165,357 of Glass 3 furnished

SCHOOSAND COLLEGES AND EDUCATIONAL ITEMS OF INTEREST

1926 and the 1,07f,201 of Glass 4 fur
nished 5,768.
1t thus appears:
1st That an uneducated child has
one chance in 10000 of attaining
distinction as factor in the progress
of the age.
I'd That common school educa-
ton will increase his chances nearly
four times.
3rd. That a high school training
will increase the chances of the com
mon school boy twenty-three times,
giving him eighty-seven times the
chance of the uneducated.
4th. That college education in
creases the chance of the high school
boy nine times, giving him two hun
dred and nineteen times the chance
of the common school boy, and more
than eight hundred times the chance
of the unframed.
1t is a surprising fact that of 1852
''notables'' thus gathered, 4,S1O proved
to be full graduates of colleges.
From the nature of the case it can.
not be claimed that these figures are
exact, but they are based upon the
most reliable government statistics
and the necessary estimates have
been made with care. 1t is doubtless
true that other circumstances con,
tributed to the success of these col
lege trained men, but after all rea.
ures still force the conclusion that
