Excellent Faculty
We have a faculty of well trained,
experienced teachers. Many of them
who are already advanced Normal or
University graduates have been at
tending summer school so that they
might bring to our school the latest
methods. All of them are ready to
make 1922 the year of greatest edu-
cationcational growth. Our building is
ready to take care maximum num-
ber. Now, it is necessary for the I
young people to realize the value OF
attending school. An education is
not for the loafer, not for the shirk-
er, but for the boy or girl who will
work that he or she may achieve the
richest rewards for himself or her
self and the greatest good for others.
Education increases the opportuni-
ties for greater success, for higher
enjoyment and for a richer, fuller
life. Without an education your life
may be one of drudgery without much
compensation; a life of only limited
endowment of the best in the home,
in business, in literature and arts, a
life shorn of its greatest usefulness
and influence among neighbors and
friends; life with only limited op-
portunity and ability for service.
Vital Statistics t
The following are some interesting t
school statistics: t
Out of every hundred pupils who
enter public schools only fifteen re- t
main to graduate from the high c
school and fewer than three finish Y
college.
Illiteracy is costing the United t
1925, 100000 annually through acci- |
tents and inefficiency. t.
The average child enrolled in the
public school attends 120 days during a
he school term, or about three is
'ourths of the time. Absence costs
he United States $195, 100000 an t'
lually. Cut down this useless ex- p
,ense by enrolling on Sept. II.
About 125, 1000 teachers out total r
4l1
ually and their places are filed by
teachers. We have
your children by employing
thoroughly trained, experienced tea
hers. w
A grade school education multi hf
lies your chances by four, while M
igh school education muitiplies them re

Last but not least, high school it
ducation helps one to make money. ar
very day spent in school pays the, ia
hid SO. Each day spent in high r,
,hool is worth $25 to each pupil and
ach day spent in college is worth n
55.55. You can't earn as much u
oney by quitting school and going
work The world is looking for
aimed minds and will pay well for
lem. The world is run by common
ace men and women who are pre-
ared for their tasks by education. De
e one of them. u
In the United States as whole Or
e average college graduate earns 10y
',o00 a year, the average high oa
