VALUE OF EDUCATION
Its Worth Is Measured by Character
Il Develops.

If we are looking for an investment
which will pay us in dollars and cents
let us not support the schools, writes
Rev Geo b. Thompson in the Wax
haw Enterprise. If we realize that
the desire to learn is mate, that we
are to train the child because it is n
rational being, and that the worth OF
education is measured by the charac-
ter il develops, then let us support, by
our interest and money, every sane
educational movement.
Education is one of the inexpensive
things man deals with. The Creator
has given the child intelligence, the
average child has an Unborn desire 10
develop the mind, and all we are re-
quired to do is provide the means
whereby the mind can absorb the good
things. If we were required to orig
mate the rational mind, or give to the
child a taste for education, our con-
clusion would bc otherwise.
There are many things we ought to
learn about education. Every boy and
girl ought to know that the school is
not n place whore they "havc to go.
The desire to learn is manifested by
the normal mind, but the pupil VINO
looks upon school as a prison Will
reach the years Of maturity prisoner
not of education, but bound by the
chains OF ignorance. Every child
wishes that the end of school days
would speed on the wings of haste
Would that we could learn that man
never ceases to need an education, or
that he can reach the point wh"r"
learning ceases.
Parents ought to learn that the
school is for another purpose than to
keep the child off the streets, or pro
vide n nursery to relieve the parent
of responsibility. The school is a
place where minds are developed,
where character is moulded, where
mature mcr and women are made. NO
teacher has the capacity, talent or
what not, to convert Ounce into
scholar. No school has ever taken Il
fool and made wise man of it. IN
less the pupi! has native ahility--thr
material with which and upon winch
the teacher woikS-thc pupil will fin
iSh his education without completing
it. lie will know nothing.
The question is not whether In"
child has been through school: but
has the school been through the rhlId.
AS an apple is not in any proper
sense an apple until it is ripe. 50 III"
human being is in any sense human
being until he is CduCatcd.' There
fore we ought to educate the boy ana
girl because they will be mon ana
women, and not because they will have
to do certain kinds Of work in thc
world. The Ounce will plod along; but
the educated boy will climb. No,
every ditch digger will climb out Of the
ditch simply because he knows hlS

osition, having the sanction and ap.
proval of CASTOR county bankers, cot
will put S5OO,OOO clear money into Gas
ton county next year ought not be
dismissed lightly. Half a million dol
lars. That is more than half of what
CASTOR county crop of 10000 bales this
year will amount to. Ought it not hn
worth considering? A half million
dollars every year in the pockets of
CASTOR county farmers will lift many
n mortgage, pay off many debts, install
many a modern lighting and power
plant, buy MANY automobiles and
tractors; it will spell prosperity in big
letters. Is it worth considering?
There has been suggested to The Ga
zette for sponsoring a plan that will
give every Castor county farmer from
$40 to $40 more per bale for his cot
ton than he has been receiving. Fur
thermore, the plan will insure always
a ready market. Short staple cotton
is a drag on the local cotton market.
It does not bring quite as much al
times as on other markets nearby. One
reason is that il is not used locally to
any extent. Long staple cotton is used
entirely in most of the Castor county
cotton mills. Why, then, should not
Castor county farmers raise the pro-
duct that is in most demand nearest
home, all other considerations being
equal? Long staple cotton will grow
and mature just as well in Castor
county as in South Carolina cotton
counties. 1t is being grown on River
side Farm in South Point township on
the Catawba river. Mr. w. T. Rankin
has been growing it there for several
years and he is selling his cotton on
