THE FEAR OF DEATH.
A BRAVE cow.

This nation, with its annual in

MILLIONS of dollars, treats edu-

of education depends not on
money, but on the brains on which
the education money is spent. A
crop depends not entirely on the
seed, but more on the soil.
Nearly nine hundred years ago,
when Abelard, taught logic and
theology to young men in the Uni

Wintertime in stone lined room,
not heated. taking notes by candle
light:
And many, too poor to pay for
candles, climbed the church steeple
on bright moonlight nights, to con-
tinue their studies there by moon
light.
A few such students might be
worth more to the world than a
thousand million dollars of endow-
ment. Edison gave to the world
more money than wealth has ever
given to education. So did Pas

Senator James A. Reed, leader of
the Irreconcilables and veteran of
a thousand legislative battles. will
stage his last great senatorial fight
today with a formal speech against
unconditional ratification of the
Kellogg BRAND peace treaty.
The Fighting Jim" of Democracy,
who retires from the Senate March
4 after a spectacular 20-year career,
probably will make one of the
greatest speeches of his life. His
oratory will mark the final squirt of
the Irreconcilable TO block the ad-
ministration purpose to ratify the
treaty. without any public state
ment of the American terms of ed
herence.
Headed League Fight
The shades of three other sensa-
tional treaty fights will sweep
across the Senate chamber as Reed
demands more definite protection OF
American institutions before the
treaty is approved. 1t was Reed, at
the close of the Werld War, who
led the fight against the League OF
Nations covenant, which America
rejected; it was Reed, who led the
fight on the -Four Power" Pacific
pact. growing out of the Harding
disarmament conference. but 1t was
ratified; it was Reed, who led the
fight against the World Court
protocol and he forced its material
modification by, American reserVa'
tions.

he favors the treaty If the Amer

Perhaps he's famous NJ. ID.

He'd learn twas an M. d.
And not any ID. ID.
