EpUCATIoN AID sALARIEs.

Reports from the colleges in Kan
sas this year indicate record enroll
ments In Topeka, for instance,
Washburn. an independent college. is
credited with 1000 students from all
over the west.
The end of the war. of course, has
thrown young men back into the insti-
tutions OF learning. The unusual
prosperity also has made it possible
for parents to equip their children
with higher education.
It is unusual. however. to see this
record squirt in the pursuit of col
lege education.
The last few years in the United
States have proven that the natural
business inciinations following college
graduation are the poorest paid of all
the daily tasks.
Suppose a student decides to enter
the ministry. His four years in col
lege and his post graduate work-all
at a tremendous expense-have pro-
vided him with the necessary "ingre-
dents" to lead his flock. With his
life devoted and dedicated to the min
istry he delivers his sermons to the
boilermaker, the carpenter. the
plumber-men who receive vastly
more wages and men who were paid
while they were learning their trade.
Suppose the college graduate took
up teaching. Even when reaching the
ranks of the professor he finds him
self paid less than the man who fixes
his furnace or installs his electric
light fixtures.
And so it goes-on down the line of
professions chosen by the average col
iege man who has given the better
part of his life up to preparation for
the services he may perform in his
declining years.
This isn't the fault Of the plumber
or. the carpenter. to be sure. God
bless 'em for their ability to own au-
tomobiles! But it indicates the in
Justice toward the man who strives to
attain the ideals of life-and suffers
for It,
We cannot all be plumbers and we
cannot all be college professors.
There is plenty of room for all classes
Of workmen-and there should be a
reward for every effort.
Possibly the present generation of
college students believes firmly that
before its entrance into the world of
work the balance wheel will be in run
ming order.

DOROTHY DIX TALKS
BY DOROTHY DIX
Worlds Highest Paid Woman Writer.
Wife or Children.

Therefore, at its highest. a man is
only partially responsible for his wife's
well being, but he is wholly RESPONSE
BILE for his children. and if he must
choose between them the children
should have the preference. They
should have the best.
1t is this right of the children to be
considered above ones own individual
inclination. That is the chief objec-
ton to divorce. No one can argue
that moralit- is served by a man and
woman living together who have
ceased to love each other. and who
bicker and quarrel and bring out all
the worst that is in each others ma
lures.
But divorce means the breaking up
Of home. generally the removal of
the children from their fathers care
and influence, and it often happens
that woman who is a poor wife is a
good mother.
In such cases it is invariably the
fathers duty to put his children's food
above his own. and for the sake of
keeping them together. and throwing
about them the restraints of a home,
to sacrifice himself for their welfare
by enduring a wretched marriage.
1t is to be regretted that so many
men take their duties to their children
lightly. They seem, somehow, to
dump the whole burden of parental
responsibility upon the shoulder of
their wives, and to feel that they have
done their share when they pay the
chiidrens bills.
1t is very seldom that you see a man
who thinks about the subject enough
to realize that sometimes a man must
decide between his wife and children.
and must even protect the children
from their mother. AS, for instance,
in use where wife must be denied

Graves in order that the money may
be saved to send the boys to college,
or where a child should be removed
from the care of a silly and doting
mother who is running it's whole life
by injudicious indulgences n
That man is apt to care morel flor
his wife than he does for his children
is amply proven in the fact that sec
ond wives almost invariably wrap
their husbands aroU nd their fingers,
and If they are selfish and Jealous
women can even induce their hus-
bands to be hard and cruel to their
own children. 1t is no uncommon
thing to see mans second wife and
children living in luxury while his first
children are struggling along in
poverty. and 1t is a matter of COM
mon observation that the second set,
of children are nearly always given
better opportunities than the first
children had. and inherit-the bulk of
the fortune when their father dies.
So it would seem that while a mans
first duty is to his children it is a debt
that he very often repudiates.- And
in this men differ from women, be-
cause the great majority of women
put their children first and their hus-
bands second, while men reverse the
places.

able item of velvet after those obliga-
tions are met.
The income of the treasury depart
ment for the current year will be six
and a half billion dollars-about
enough to break even on expenditures.
In that figure there will be victory
loan instaIlments to the amount of one
billion dollars. They are an unusual
resource which will not be included
in the future annual income schedule.
The present tax scheme, however, will
produce five and one half billion dol
lars a year, and that is much more
money than will be needed to run the
government. pay the interest on its
indebtedness. and provide for its sink
ing fund. Two and half billion
should do this.
So does it become evident that lakes
may be reduced as much as one-half
and leave the government a sufficient
sum of money for current expenses, or
the rate may be kept high and the
money go toward the more rapid re-
duction of the national debt. At any
rate, the whole financial problem of
this government is now on a very firm
basis where the only vision of the
future is the inflow of quite adequate
funds from our great national pros

elected president of the teachers as

there were at least 5000 defective
children in the country and that only

ROSE GOES HOME.
CHAPTER L.

The next morning Everett was cold
~, almost freezingly ponte to Rose.
l wished L hadn't told him what she
said-it was going to make it horri-
bly, uncomfortable for me. But 1
needn't have worried Rose wasn't
of good time and as soon as Everett
had left for his office she commenced
to pack.
II wish you would call Barry up
and tell thin 1 am going home" she
said.
"An right. but I don't see how you
can call him Barry 1 have known
him ever so much longer than you
have and L have called him Barrett
only few times. 1t seems awfully
intimate to give him nickname"
Not if you knew"
I wondered what she meant, but
could get her to make no explana-
ton. Finally I concluded she was just
putting on side" as an English friend
of mothers used to express it. So 1
called Barrett up and told him. He
only said: Il am sorry your friend
is going, isn't it rather sudden? She
said nothing about it last night"
1T is sudden. Here she is" and
l relinquished the telephone to Rose,
who talked a good quarter of an hour

He will be at the train" she said

Certainly" L knew by her voice
she didn't want me, but neither did
l want her to tell Barrett Edmonds
how Everett had treated me. L was
sure she would if l were not along.
Il will order the car as long as you
are determined to co.
Il wouldn't be hired to stay!
would feel so uncomfortab BILE. l don't
see how you can stand it, honest I
don't. I'm real sorry for you, Sandra. -
That was the last straw
Please, Rose, don't go back home
telling tales, saying you are sorry for
me and all that sort of thing. 1t will
make mother terribly unhappy. and
make her think I am. / am not really.

times. and"
He'd have to be to make up for
the other times. The idea of taking
a mans warmed over affections, and
then standing what you do! Nix on
