ELIMINATE BAD FEATURE

Belmont park race track, New

course in America, will eliminate
an Objectionable feature, the
horses being required to run to
the left instead of the right.
This is the style on many Eng
lish courses, but next year the
Belmont course will conform to
the American method, the horses
running the right way of the
course.

This is not to be construed as deprecating
the value of an education, but shows that educa-
ton is only means to an end, and that other
agencies, such as persistence, self-culture and
hard work, also are roads to success.
And not the least lesson it teaches is that the
boys and girls who have an opportunity to go to
school should exploit every means at their dis
posal to prepare themselves adequately for life
These men who succeeded despite their lack
of schooling would gladly exchange portion OF

The True Test

The true test of education is not the quantity
of knowledge absorbed by the pupil, but his abil-
ity to use that knowledge in practice. If he
acquires only facts and does not understand prin-
cples, his learning is worth little to him.
Many men succeed without what is commonly
called a good education. But they are able to
use the rudiments of knowledge in every day
affairs so successfully that they outdistance the
men and women who spent many years in col
leges and universities.
An article in Forbes Magazine tells of the
struggles of some of the leaders of our country.
Nearly all of them reached the top after hard
battles and by overcoming many handicaps. A
few of them are mentioned to cheer those who
believe that there is no hope for them.

Ripping Rhymes
THE ACCIDENT
BY Walt Mason

Oh, jings, how sick a driver feels,
when he looks down and sees a voter
tangled in his wheels, with mangled
hat and knees. He looks down
through remorseful tears. and sheds
magenta sweat, and though he live a
hundred years, he never will forget.
At most times he's a thoughtful cuss,
who scans the road with care. as he
propels his foaming bus adown the
thoroughfare. But now a neighbor
with him rides, and he would show
her speed, and open wide the throttle
slides, and she saws wood, indeed
| She madly rips around curve, and
! there the voter stands; it is too late
alas, to swerve, and on his frame she
lands. The poor pedestrian lies fiat
upon the dusty lea; the ruins of his
Sunday hat are pitiful to see. The
| crown is denied here and there, the
! hrim is badly torn, and never, on a
! Sabbath fair, can it again be worn
| The voter, borne upon door, is taker
/ to the town, and babbles of the hat he
wore, when he was stricken down. Oh
| never may you know the pain of sucf
a scene, / pray, and never may you
gilded vain run down some haplest
Jay. Leave black remorse to t'othe
chaps, nor know the pangs they feel
and never let your caution lapse whel
you are at the wheel.

now out of employment. Gompers was
quoted as saying: "A year ago there
was scarcely handful of men out of

Now there are more than 100000 out

The statement of the publicity de-

utterance, reads: AN examination of

The selection of Ambassador Shide-
