Value of Education.

The most important thing one can
acquire in school is not the inforna-
ton gained, but the habit Of study es-
mblished. With mind trained to
study one has the ability TO work at
the solution of the problems which
come up in life. Education gives one
comprehension While lack of training
causes bewilderment.
