When we got the Mirror this
week and looked over it, we were
very much disappointed to see
that there was not an account of
the fifth Sunday meeting at Shi.
lob. We were in hopes that a
more able pen than ours would
see tit to write it. So we wish
to say we had a very good meet
ing, both on Saturday and Sun
day. The most of the subjects
on the program were very ably
discussed; a few were omitted
on account of lack of time. We
had some excellent sermons, but
will mention no special one, as
we consider that everything in
tie meetings was exceptionally
good, and Shiloh will gladly en-
terrain the people whenever they
see tit to honor us by coming
again. Owing to sickness the
dedication was postponed, but
the committee is trying to az.
range for it in the near future.
Bro. Roberts has been called
as pastor of Shiloh church for
another year. : We think the
church fortunate in getting Bro.
Roberts. He filled his regular
appointment Saturday night and
Sunday.
Mr.. Sturgeon has been resting
easier the last day or two. \
We were glad to see that An
drew Seals was again able to
come out with his family to Sun.

Something TO

HOW CAN A MAN LEARNT
By r. II. WALKER

M X. GARRETT T.. SERYISS, who
lN1 made himself out Of a newspa-
per man into scientist. tells how be
recently received letter from a sec
ten hand on a railroad who related
how he had taught himself astronomy
aud Latin because he was interested
in the stars and the poet Virgil
This man, who described himself as
"unedueated" made the curious re-
mark. Il have found that can learn
anything that gives me pleasure"
That throws bright light on the
whole subject of education.
At this time of the year when the
universities are turning out their
ton OF trimming naturally arises in the
minds Of those who have sons and
daughters to prepare for the future.
Is 1t possible that the case of Mr..
Seryiss' section hand. who found In
tellectual salvation for himself. and
by himself. Is no different from that
of many who had all the advantages
education only really began when
they left college.
Charles Darwin. .4the greatest man Of
science of his age, regarded the time
that he had>spent at the university as
wasted. -
Herbert Spencer was all his life
solitary investigator and thinker.
Thomas Henry Hanley had to
abandon his university work and earn
his living after he had passed. the
first medical examination of the Uni
versity OF London.
John Tyndall educated himself In
science as member of the ordinance
survey.
What is the explanation Of the
careers of these four distinguished
men? Obviously 1t Is this. that they
found 1t easy, as the section hand did,
to learn anything that gave them
pleasure. Much education Is wasted
because men take no pleasure in II.
This too. is surely the explanation
Of the astonishing achievements OF
Madame Curie, the most brilliant
feminine imam of science that we
know anything about.
Great schools and great universities
provide no easy or royal road to learn
ing. They give young men chance
to meet others who are interested in
the same subjects. They provide the
emulation" which the philosopher
Francis Bacon regarded as so impor-
tant.
But it remains for the individual
who has been through the mill of a
higher education to pick out for HIM
self the path that he is to tread.
Systems of education are important
in the case of the average man, but
of slight Importance in that of the
man of genius or great talent.
Shakespeare and Lincoln were self
taught and they will go on teaching
the world as long as their writings re-
main as models for mankind.
What would the author of the
Gettysburg Speech have said If he
had been told that reproductions OF
the Gettysburg Speech would be hung
