QUICK RELIEF FROM
CONSTIPATION
Get DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets

That is the joyful cry of thousands
since DR.. Edwards produced Olive
Tablets, the substitute for calomel.
DR.. Edwards, a practicing physician
for II years and calomels old-time
enemy, discovered the formula for Olive
Tablets while treating patients for
chronic constipation and torpid livers.
DIR. Edwards Olive Tablets do not
contain calomel, but a healing. soothing
vegetable laxative.
No gripping is the keynote" of these
little sugar-coated, olive-colored tab
let's. They cause the bowels and liver to
act normally. They never force them
to unnatural action.
Ifyou have dark brown mouth -
bad breath-a dull, tired feeling-sicle
headache-torpid liver-constipation.
you'll find quick, sure and PLEASANT re-
suits from one or two of DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets at bedtime.
Thousands take theri every night just
to keep right. Try them. l5c and 30c.

Vocational Education

A banker of national reputation
disparaged the teaching Of vocational
education in the public schools, in
an address before the sixth annual
convention of the National Fedora
ton Of Business and Professional
Women's Clubs at West Baden, Ind
He declared that the business
world needs educator persons more
than it needs vocational trained
workers and expressed sympathy with
the Federation's department of edu-
cation to keep girls out Of business
and business schools until they have
been through high school.
Here is something to ponder well
especially a thought for the school
executives. At the risk of being un-
popular, they should not hesitate to
take stand against the agitation for
vocational education, which would
sacrifice the regular high school
course.
The favorite theme Of those who
advocate vocational training is that
boys and girls will never make use of
Latin, and other languages, history
mathematics and the sciences.
But they fail to understand that in
a high school course there is some
thing besides that which you store
away in your head They do not APP
preciate that the mastery of the diff
ficult problems that arise in a regular
high school course is an invaluable
part of character building that every
boy and girl should have.
The high school is not for the pur-
pose of training young people for an
avocation in life. 1t is only pre-
paratory 1t is the ground work
upon which they should build THEN

THE MAN who is laughed at today is revered tomor-
row. They laughed at Bell and his telephone Edison and
his electric light, Langley with his flying ma
chine The Wright brothers derded the discoverer
of Xrays were dicued and the radio deusOn brought
smiles and amusement
But not now.
It is as impossible for say now, what the road
of the future be, impossible for to say
five years ago. what radio of today would
be.
An inventor wants to interest capital in making a
roadway of steel It will COST built thousands but
builders laugh The public laughs. We all laugh. Why
nav three thousand dollars mile for roads when
we can get them for a few thousands?
Twenty years ago the idea of paying twenty-five thous-
and dollars a mile for road was laughed att
This steel idea may be all wrong It hasn't been tried
It may be chimerical in the extreme We don't know But
we do know laughing at it because its different is no
way to prove idiotc. Ten years people laughed at
the idea of national highways They don't laugh any
more More and more people coming to think that
highways are much part Of the Nations business as
waterways Panama Canal, battleships, an army.
The new idea is always laughed at Laughter doesn't
prove anything except the sandpat mind of the laugh
err Maybe steel roads three hundred thousand dollars
mile are impractical But why not bring Something else
to bear on the question beside laughter? Nobody laughs at
national highways any more; not even Congress!
The joke of yesterday is the fact of today Maybe we
will vet ride on national highways of STEEL They laugh
ed at steel rails locomotives, too They laughed at
transcontnental highways And how they did laugh at
