SPIRIT OF RECKLEssNEss.

A spirit Of recklessness pervades society today.
Reading any daily newspaper, one is impressed oy
the great number of accidents reported. Many
of these are in connection with the operation OF
automobiles, but not by any means al OF them.
Burglaries and murders, holdups and illicit trad
ing, with brief reference to politics. furnish topics
for the other columns '3H~ .'''
The world is moving at terrific pace. The war
that it passed through helped to make its popula-
tton restless. In this country high prices and high
wages have put life on different scale. no1ce-
able slump in morals and religion has robbed US OF
much Of our pose and equanimity and made us
careless in conduct and regard for law: We are
paying stiff price in the toll Of human lie and
bodily injuries for our spirit of recklessness.
We are anxious to get back to normal 1n eco
nomic relations, but it is far more important that
we lay again the foundations of right living and
right thinking and right relations to; man. And
the spirit of recklessness, and in many cases need
lessness will give way to caution and regard 1or
the common good when the fundamental cause OF
our feverish haste is removed

Fyf,,L RoI sHEvIsM LACKS COURAGE

"a The public hears considerable these days about

covites have great principal Of government 1or
which they are willing to sacrifice themselves IN
order to impress it upon the "capita'lstlc natlons
The defeat of the Russian hordes by smaller

It must be plain, even to the preachers OF soviet

Some of the most thrilling stories in world history
tell a few Of the brave men fired by the love OF

would rather die than give up the defense OF

The Russians have been deceived in to the accept

SCHOOL DAYS AGAIN.


School days are with US again, and as we watch
the youth starting off we will be recalling the days
of childhood and recounting the precious hours
that were frttered away.
Young people seldom able to penetrate the
veil of the future and realize the imperative need
Of an education. T. I.
But the need is there and is becoming
insistent as time goes on and civilization pro-
gresses.' In the olden days the educated class
were but few in number. Today they almost
universal. Tomorrow-who knows what the
quirements will be? ~<
The problem Of the school is not with the young
est children, but with those more advanced. When
it to the high school grades there is falling
off far beyond expectations From the standpoint
of material advantage alone high school training
is worth while Those who have figured on the
facts about this claim that every day spent in high
school is worth ten dollars. boy to receive
that amount every day he in his place at school,
there would surely be more there Yet, taken year
in and out for lifetime, the boy who has the
academic training gets that much more. The salary
attached to job for boy who has only an eighth
standing may look good for the present, but that
boy is not likely to make the progress he would if
farther advanced in school work. In five years
ten years his mate who stayed in school is ready
for better position, and is value worker,
and is more likely to be promoted
There are other and intrinsically greater reasons
why our boys and girls should stay in school
Mental discipline is needed. The power of discern
ment is not easily acquired, and in world of so
much sham and cant this becomes one Of the most
The complete citizen needs to know how to dis
tinguish between the true and the false, the tran
sient and the permanent between the superficial and
the substantial. The educated is forearmed.
He is not easily fooled or stampeded by mere ap-
pearances. Progress is achieved through educa-
ton; and humanity has mission of progress. A
good education is worth making a sacrifice for
We urge every boy and girl to aim for the best
that our school-and coi.eges-can give them in
an educaticna! way, in order that they may be
better fitted for he great tasks awaiting the citizen
ship of this new and promising country
With our children back in the class room again,
it would be well for of mature years to enlarge
our interest in their welfare.
We should extend to the teachers full measure
of encouragement and support and thereby add to
the zest of their labors. =
Our duty does not end with starting the child
to school in the morning. That is only the be-
ginning An active and daily interest in its progress
will lend encouragement to its efforts and spur it to

ALL AROUND EDUCATION.

Interest in physical education is growing. Every
where physical culture and so-called lie extension
Institutes are sprnging up. a@ q
Everyone will agree that this attention to hygiene
and physical training is excellent thing But it
seems odd that so many should lay stress on physical
culture merely as of prolonging life. -
The value of physical education in extending lie
is after ALL only incidental. Its real merit is IN
making life worth living. .. ~
A general extension of the period OF life IS OF
interest mainly to the actuary. More appealing to
the average man or woman is the new vigor in
life that comes from physical training and health
culture. 1t is less the desire to live longer than
to live more fully that is increasing the ranks OF
the physical cuturists \ 1888
A hearty appetite perfect digestion, one
hundred per cent efficient liver, clear brain and
general physical exhiliration-given these as the
reward of physical culture, no one worries much
about the problem of life extension. -:
