the family eXchequer would be in- creased by s10 per week; that repre- sents the sum of s1,560 for there years. Now the question resolves itself into this: Are you going to have your child forfeit an earning capacity of s2,340 which will in crease as years go by. in order to save the city s4SO and add S1 56O to your income for the next three years? It certainly doesn't look like a good business proposition to do so.
 some of you may notice that my argumeit has been applied to boys 10 the exclusion Of the girls. Of course when one is discussing finances he considers the masculine point of view first. because We men, not vithstanding the advance made by the ladies along all lines, have been able to keep a little ahead as income producing factors. In other words it is to these boys that We will have to look for the production Of the greater part Of the increase Of the wealth of our city and our nation.
 But I have q word for the par ents who may argue that 1t is not worth while to keep a girl in school when the chances are she will hc married within ten years Of her higu school graduation. My answer to c fv, p1 n tAl4H tFfl that girl if she were allowed to con tinue through high school, would undoubtedly earn enough moro hy virtue Of her high school education 10 make up for the cost and the initial sacrifice. In the second place. if she does get married and enters into the larger field Of cndeayor as q home maker and q mother. she vii be better endowed 10 fulfili her task and will give to the world a better degree of citizenship.
 'But that second answer brings us to the other point of view from which I said We would consider the question Is the additional education " illtIi tue NpANu II IlltN Il'lN'' N'l lli the cost?' From the financial view point it reduces itself to matter of computation, the other point Of view, the cultural. is less tangible
 If one were to listen 10 tho con verSation of two groups of wOrkmcn Cor houseWivcs) one composed of high school graduates, the other of those who had not that advantage he would realize that one group was getting something out Of life that the others knew not Of.
 Education gives an indcscrihablc ability to appreciate, the beauties of the world and all things therein contained.' It may make 8 few cyni- cal-it makes multitu1es contcntcd with all but their lack Of further knowledge. These things cannot b. measured in terms of dollars and cents. They must be felt to bo un- derstood.
 "If. therefore, ' have persuaded one parent here this evening that il is better 10 choose the may of edu- cation rather than merely to submit 10 the must l have done well. II through mo. one child is given the opportunity 10 take all the city has to offer along educational lines then indeed have I not labored in vain For as one scientist has said Ignor- ance is the only unpardonahlc sin or as Josh Billings stated in anot hcr way It ain't the peoples ignorance that does the harm, ifs their know in so much that ain't so."

MOTHER OF TWINS
 HOPES FOR PEACE
Mrs. YOuIlan Wants ReC0nCil-
 iation instead Of Divorce

Chicago. Nov 1c tP-Mrs. Vincent loumans, Jr.. believes that when her composer husband. whom she is su ing for separate maintenance, sees the twins born after the couple had separated, there may be a recon Ciliation instead Of q divorce.
 Mrs. Noumans is in Chicago hospital recuperating from a break down that followed the birth of the twins two and a half months ago.
 The twins are so sweet" she said. T know my husband will lovr them when he sees them. It's just that his paternal love has not awakened yet. He couldn't be so indifferent to thcm-and to me-if h. had held them in his arms.
 "1'he babies will be brought here from Reno. New, hy their nurse in time for the hearing in court We'd nesday. Narloy and Cocclia are their names. The boy looks like his father and tho girl, they say, looks just like me. l know when their father sees them he will love them. '
 Edward Debolt Of Mrs. Youmans' counsel, said tho assertion charged by Mrs. Noumans in her separate maintenance suit, was on July i and was due to the influence Of You mans father whom she also is su- ing. asking St0.Goo damages.
 Mrs. Noulnans and her husband |, N,,I. I.,o1I said, but his family resented her from the beginning. She finally. was persuaded 10 go to Reno and seek q divorce, even before the babres were born. We hope with Mrs You mans that sh" and her husband may ho reconcilod."

STRUGGLE IN THE PAINTERS
UNIONS

The progressive movement in the
Painters union eliminating in Satur-
days elections is only the beginning
OF developments rapidly becoming
clear in the painters union locals.
Within the next two or three weeks
elections will be held in each of the
Is or Is locals for delegates to Dis
trict Council 8.
These elections for delegates to the
council are of far greater Importance
than those which have just taken
place for Day Secretary and business
agents, inasmuch as the continuance
of the controlling machine in the dis
trict council will largely offset the
work which any progressive day sec
rotary may seek to accomplish. The
experience of Thomas Wright, for
mer day secretary, should be a lesson
to the progressives. 1t shows the ne
cessity of building around their capa-
BILE and honest officials a supporting
body of progressive delegates.
