Many large business establishments
today will not hire new employee
until he has submitted to a more or
less thorough physical examination to
determine his fitness for the duties he
will be called upon to perform. This
requirement has seemed harsh to
some, but it really is as much in the
interest of the prospective employee
as of his employer says Pittsburgh
Chronicle. The examination frequent
ly discloses hitherto unsupported de-
fects that may be remedied, thus con-
tributing to his efficiency. This scheme
has also been extended with good re-
suits 10 industrial concerns and it has
played it's part in the widespread
safety first" movement.

AMERICAS GIFT TO woRl :

II may be, as Meredith Nicholson
has suggested, that Americas Gift IN
the world will rot be an artistic Gift
at all, but an ethical one. Each conn
try seems. like each person, to have
some peculiar gift to give to humani-
ty. England gives poetry to the
'Forld-there has never been in any
other country such a procession of
poets as have passed through England
In the last 600 years-and Germany
gives great music to it. What is the
gift that America will give? l am in
terested in Meredith Nicholson's opin-
ion that the gift may be a higher
standard of justice, greater range
OF freedom, remarks st. John IRVINE
in Century Magazine though contem-
porary life in the United States hard
~ convinces me that his opinion is
sound. In any event, America must
produce a literature of her own. If
her gift to the world is to be nobler
ethic than the world now possesses,
then she cannot fail also to give the
world noble literature All great
writing is fundamentally the ex-
preston of 3 powerful individuality.
One expects to find the greatest 1itera-
ture in that country where individual
ity has the freest play. Is that eoun-
try America?

VALUE OF EDUCATION.

Figures presented by an Indian
spolis bank show that of 100000
children with no schooling 81 attain
distinction. OF 33,00O.O0O with ele-
mentary schooling the number to gain
distinction is sos. says Indianapolis
News. Two million with a high school
education show distinction gained by
1,245. Out of 100000 who go through
college, 5,T6S become distinguished in
some walk of life Less than per
cent of the men in America are coli
lege bred, yet this small percentage
has furnished 80 per cent of the Amer
lean presidents, "a per cent of the vice
presidents, 60 per cent of the secre-
taries of state, so per cent of the sec
retaries of treasury, g. per cent of
the attorneys general, AZ per cent of
the speakers of the house, and 50 per
cent of the Supreme court justices.
With a college education the child
has one chance in lib, with high
school education one chance in 1906,
with elementary schooling alone, one
chance in 40,S41, and with no school
ing one chance in 1890.

Every farmer is under an obliga-
ton to his community. He should live
acceptably and helpfully to his COM
munity. The community is what we
make it, and if we do not assume the
responsibility of citizenship that right
fully belongs to us we are a drag on
the community life. In a large city
a man can live without any con-
seriousness of his civic responsibilities,
but in farm community a man can
not divorce himself from his share Of
community work. We know Of some
communities where some of the peo-
pie feel that the community welfare
is not on as high a plane today as it
was IS or 20 years ago, says Illinois
Farmer. If that is the case in our
community we are at fault, and it is
up to US 10 become more active, more
aggressive, in fact, in community vel
fare work.

Speak the kind words. they are
needed So" run the words of an old
hymn. Every day we let opportuni-
ties pass when we might have spoken
that muck-needed kind word To our
families, our friends and to passing
acquaintance, the cheerful words are
stepping stones on the hills of life.
Neighborly deeds and appreciative
"Thank yous" are of more benefit to
the living than roses on the graves
of the dead.

of the labor and receives a share of
