Get an Education

The person who remains in ignorance in Rich
mond has no one to blame but himself. Educa-
ton is to be had for the asking. The board of
education has supplied night courses where per-
sons may pursue their training in many depart
ments. The public library has hundreds of
volumes loaded with the best thought of the
world.
Make UP your mind that you are going to
acquire an education. Enroll in the night classes
or go to the library, ask for books, study with a
purpose.
The best educated men and women in Rich
mond are not the ones who received all their
knowledge from universities. Just as soon as a
person quits reading and studying, he begins to
slip backward.
The really learned persons in this community
are the ones who are always learning, constantly
seeking to improve their minds by contact with

INCOME TAX BLANKS
BY W alt Mason

The day draws near when Uncle
Sam will send me bughouse blanks, on
which to state how rich I am, what
coin I've in the banks. Already this
disturbs my dreams and makes my
days seem vain; those income blanks
are simply screams that drive a man
insane. | pay a lawyer princely sums
to get my blank made right; l send it
in, and back it comes; I'm told it is a
fright. l hire an expert who has fill<d
tax blanks for years and years; he's
an accountant doubly skilled, and he
allays my fears. This time" he says,
your blank will pass the closest scrut-
my, or l will eat a pane of glass
just leave it all to me. I've filled up
blanks for millionaires, and corpora
+ tons, too, and l am wise to all the
snares that mark the revenue" And
so he fills up every space, and deity
plays his game, and sets the figures
all in place, and has me sign my
name. And so | send the blank away,
and feel a great relief, and like colt
/ dance and play-but all this joy is
brief. The blamed old blank comes
back again from some official chap,
who, with fierce and caustic pen,
reviles me for sap. l don't begrudge
the tax pay to help my native land,
but hope to see, on some bright day,
a blank I'll understand.

other persons, always wondering about the why
and wherefore of things.
Everyone has chance in the big school of
life. You may fancy that you are too old to begin
studying in the night school, or that next year
will be better time to begin. If you believe
thus, you will remain duard, and your bright,
energetic neighbor will beat you.
Your schooling is something for which you
alone are responsible. Every man must edu-
cate HIMSELF said Webster. His books and
teacher are but helps; the work is his
Boys and girls whose schooling was inter-
rupted should be most eager to acquire more
knowledge They are still young in years, and
life's possibilities have not fully unroled them
selves before them.
What if glorious opportunity to achieve
success should be irrevocably lost because the
young man or woman failed to acquire the
requisite training? Who can they blame for re-
naming in the crowd of the mediocre but them
selves? The trained mind and the skilled hand
is what the world lacks and for which it pays
handsomely.
The boy or girl who quits high school in order
to have more spending money, is penny wise and
dollar foolish.
Statistics show that the educated man earns
more money than the one who only half com
pleted his education. 1t pays to study and alb
sorb knowledge in school and in life.

committee took into consideration his
