to understand and get along in this complex world, you must get the other fellows point Of view. Take the labor problem, the whole situation could be settled today if both factions came to a complete understanding, and would promote harmony in the industrial world. Years ago most college men did not care to discuss these questions which did not seem to concern them st that time but now they arc forced to study and help bring about harmony out of chaos.
 What Education Does.
 Education solves all problems Of. the world. The time and money in- vested in a college training will pay large dividends in later years. Edu- cation removes the great blight on in- telligence of the human race. Edu- cation removes the narrow minded misunderstanding existing in labor, in economics, finance and religious bias In fact, education is the remedy, for all evils of the world of today" n

the soil for bumper crop. Go back
 to prehistoric days and note the
 gradual development of education, or organized knowledge and wisd om.
 How it began to manifest itsclf-and the gradual growth and development. At that time man was an ignorant animal, unable to express himself. His progress has been slow but gradual, and today we have the loco motive for transportation, the. telc- phone and wireless for cofnmunica- ton. And then again we have the aeroplane for more rapid transporta- tion, an unthought of thing thirty years ago. All these things came because of education, and made the whole world of today just one large family. / a
 Most of the ills and troubles of the world today are because of the lack of understanding. Did you ever stop to think that unless we have 0 com plete understanding with individuals all this organized knowledge doesn't do us any good, and we revert to the same conditions that existed in pre- historic days? Failure to understand is ninety per cent, of the cause of trouble with the world of today.
 Every day hundreds of boys come to my office with their personal prob-.- lens. And always find in ninety five per cent. of the cases that all their troubles come because of mis- understanding each other. In order
