THE GOAL OF EDUCATION

The re-opening Of the colleges IL
the time for new resolutions, the time
for students entering upon or con-
tinuing their studies at the higher in
situations of learning over the coun-
try to make plans in order that they
may best take advantage of the OPP
portunities presented.
Opportunities, they are, indeed!
The college never needs to be on the
defensive. Its place is made secure
by the goal that it offers to young
men and women of ambition and tall
ent. AS President Ernest NJ. Hopkins
in his address at the opening Of Dart
mouth College pointed out, students
should consider their goal before all
else, otherwise their expenditures of
time and energy is likely to be futile.
They cannot even speculate on
whether they are making progress or
not until they know the characters
tics of that which they seek and the
direction in which it lies.
The goal of education is cultiva-
ton and development of our mental
powers to the end that we may know
truth and conform to it," president
Hopkins asserted. Education can
not be held to have been of large
avail if it simply creates an attitude
OF passive acceptance of truth with
out inspiring devotion to the spirit
of truth without inspiring likewise a
devotion to the spirit of truth which
shall breed a definiteness in the
loyalty which we offer. They in whom
the spirit of education has at all ap-
proximated it's reasonable functions
must be doors of the word.

After shaking hands with the
Giant whom Little Jack Rabbit had
met in the last story. he invited the
bunny boy to his house, and leading
the big black horse by the bride,
the giant came at last to a gate in
a high stone wall. AS he entered
the yard a little blue pigeon settled
on his shoulder and sang:
my giant is a kindly man,
And though so strong and big,
He never hurt little bird
Nor harmed a tiny pig"
This made the giant laugh for 1t
was the first time this little blue
pigeon had spoken in rhyme.
Well, after stabling the big black
horse, the giant took the bunny boy
into the house.
Come. sit on my knee and I'll tell
you a story" he said, seating him
self in a big armchair.
Once upon a time an old woman
came through my forest. over her
shoulders was a red shawl and on
her head a tall pointed hat, and, as

An odd situation exists in relation
to China's nnances-that country

the building constructed and the

A Narrow Escape

Some $50 or more citizens of Bel
fast and surrounding towns had q
narrow escape from serious injury.
Friday night when the reserved seat
section of a travelling circus gave
way, letting them fall to the ground,
many of them from a distance of six
feet or more. Only few were seri-
ously injured. among them Mrs. Har-
vey Foust, whose hip was badly hurt.
although at present it is impossible to
state to what extent. The owners of
the outfit were heard to say that
they believed that the jacks which
held the seats had been loosened by
boys playing around them after the
afternoon performance. The accident
occurred at the close of the evening
show. when all who remained for the
special program had taken the re-
served section. They had just got
seated when the crash came. the en-
tire section giving way and landing
the people in a heap on the ground.
Il is most remarkable that no one
was fatally hurt.

THE COUNTRY FAIR

"a loaf of bread end a pound of
meat for a nickel" The thrill of
the country fair. Steaming hot dogs,
coming perhaps from uncertain
source, but my, don't they taste good!
Onions if you prefer or just plain
dabs of French mustard. A hot dog
and bottle of pop. There's nothing
like it, when you can't see for look
ing after rows and rows of hens and
stalls of horses and cows and pigs
and sheep:
The thrill of the country fair.
There is the race track which the
proud chairman of the race commit
tee declares they make faster and
faster every year. And don't for
get the attractions inside the track
circle, vieing for honors, between
heats and between selections by the
town band. Fireworks. The "ahs"
and the "ohs" which are sent
heavenward, .accentuated by the SPIT
fly swain as he tucks the hand of his
lady love under his arm and they
both gaze up.
And the pride of the farm Is
gathered there in the exhibition
stables. There stands the favorite
family mare, with her name all
twined with red baby ribbons. She
looks bored enough as she gazes
absent mindedly over the crowd.
What are Jumps and Jumps of
sugar and pats and pokes, compared
to the old stall back home?
And squeals of delight issue from
the younger generation as they gaze
upon Mother sPig and her brood of
ten tiny ones, all busy. solving the
food question. In the poultry depart
ment, the Growing and cackling is
deafening. Maybe the birds think
they will win the prizes on the point
of lung power. But their gills and
their bills and their combs and so
and such have a great deal to do
with the matter, as the woman
from up county will tell you. She
knows poultry from egg to egg and
many of her brood have carried off
prizes.
Pulling contests. A load Of
granite blocks on a huge drag forms
the bone of contention. Great,
stolid solid working horses, who take
1t all in the days work, haul these
great loads over the ground, digging
up the terra firm like a traction.
Their, huge veins swell and it seems
as if they would burst.
The midway with all it's alluring
frontage. "Minnehaha, she bites off
their heads and eats them alive"
See the man fight the lion and the
lion fight the man." While maybe,
back : of the tent "Minnehaha's"
youngest is playing marbles with the
first selectman's young hopeful and
the lion has a batch of young cubs
tucked away some where.
The country fair is good for all of
US. 1t polishes up our gullibility
and makes us a believer in fairies
and such again. It gives us a delight
In the simple things Of life and rubs
on our cynical high light.
