ENDORSES SCHOOL CAMPAIGN

II think the go-to-school cam
paign that is soon to be launched IN
Durant is one that should not be
confined to Durant alone" Such q
campaign should be given a nation
wide scope and should be pressed to
the limit. There is no end of good
to be had from a campaign of this
kind. and too much pressure can
not be brought to bear on the
youngsters OF today in the effore to
instill in them the desire for an edu-
cation. The day OF the unframed
worker Is past. There was day In
Oklahoma and the West when an
education was considered of no parti-
cular asset. That day has long since
passed and the well-equiped man or
woman in the business world today
must have good education or
fight a serious handicap all along
thV route. There are many personal
tragedies along the track Of life
caused ythe failure OF the man or
woman to take advantage OF educa-
tional opportunities In youth A
campaign such as the one proposed
will do much to stimulate interest
in the school children. and should
benefit the city materially But
other cities should follow the lead
of Durant in making the plan a
Statewide or nationwide one"
