The daily star-mirror. (Moscow, Idaho) 1911-1939, 1921-06-08
FAREWELL, IDAHO SENIORS

pleted the full four years course ant
ties of life, splendidly equipped tt
meet and conquer the difficulties tina
will beset their paths. They have
worked long, hard and industriously
TO secure the coveted "sheep-skin'
that shows the world what they have
accomplished here
This is the largest class in the his
tory Of the University of Idaho but
we hope each succeeding class will be
larger and we have good grounds for
that hope. The university has made
wonderful advancement in recent
years. 1t is now recognized as one
of the leading educational institu-
tons of the west. A degree from this
school is an honor and an asset well
worth striving for. Idahoans recog-
nize the University of Idaho as the
school for the entire state and they
desire that their sons and daughters
be educated here.
A short generation ago college
graduate was a rare individual. He or
she was looked upon with a sort Of
awe, as a ''super-man" or super
woman" Not one person in a thous-
and had a college education. There
was fewer high school graduates then
than there are college and university
graduates now. People were content
if their children learned the three
RS" as the principal topics, known
as "readin', 'ritin' and rithmetic"
were called, and they got along fairly
well, because there were few with
better educational advantages than
they.
But competition, which is said to be
1.-The life of trade is also the life of
and business. No man
could get along in business today IL
he only knew how to read and write
and figger a little as did those of
our parents and many of our own
generation. One must be educated to
succeed 1t is only during such out
Of joint" times as those of the recent
world war, than an uneducated person \
IAN draw a higher salary than one
With an education.
Thrice is he armed who hath his
quarrel just" might be changed to \
cad thrice is he armed who hath
college education" for he is better
han the uneducated man. We are Ii
lad to see these young folks accom- 9
lish the purpose for which they came !,
0 Moscow four years ago, and to a.
now that they have acquired that Ii
oal for which they strove four long, a.
ard years. But we regret to see them .,
o and to realize that they will not f.
eturn next fall. They have made re
of warm friends in Moscow y
nd to these their departure will bring &c v1
egret. But the we'll wishes of the ~
'yal people of Moscow who have II
0ne so much to support the big &C
.hool on the hill, go with the young e. q,
en- and the young women who are I'll
aving the university and we bid ne
em return as often as possible to 1t
new acquaintance and to inspire ~
e hundreds of young men and wo- m,
en- who are following in their foot ia
cps and travelling the same path sh
ey travelled. III

to find it task to keep the
