by KARL BANKS, High scAeol Repre-
sentative.
The other day while conversing with
man concerning the education Of his

high school l might as well send him
to 49,. naming high school In Utah.
Because" he remarked. 1T Is a bets
ter school,"
What makes you think soY'
answered.
II wonder where the majority Of
their students come fromr I asked
oh, from Utah." he remarked. All
OF their own boys and girls go there
Suppose, then" said. that these
Utah people were all as loyal to their
school as you are to yours. Would It
then be such successful scheol?"
Il never thought Of 1t In that way"
he said.
And 80 it goes Our town is Just
what we make 1t; our county Is mere-
ly the result OF our efforts, and our In
stitutions will serve us only In ths
support. 1t is high time that the peo-
| institutions Of other states when our
home Institutions can serve us equally
| as well IL given an opportunity. Just
so long as we continue to support the
schools Of other states, just so long
Will these schools, by virtue Of this
added support, rival our own In pop-
| ulartty.
