Straight
Ahead
BY OLIVE A. ADAMS


school year begins, we hear the
usual admOnitiOns to the young TO
stay in school, learn their lessons
well, and prepare themselves to
take their places in the adult
world. This may sound like dull
repetition, because it is heard ev-
cry year, but it becomes increaS-
ingly important these days to i'm
press upon youngsters the neces-
sity for obtaining the best possible
education.
1t is not strange that this annual
prodding has become necessary,
since there are many occupations
that seemingly require little or no
preparation, and the pay seems
good. 1t takes a good deal of per-
suasion to show a youngster that
quitting school is short-sighted. At
the pace our world moves, there is
no guarantee that job that looks
like a good one now will remain
so.
There was a time, when lands
had to be cleared, homes built,
fields planted, that perhaps little
formal education seemed necessary
to build good life. In fact, rela-
lively few years ago, in some sec
tfons of the country, schooling was
acquired only between the harvest
season and spring planting time.
Families who followed a trade
from generation to generation,
taught their children the trade and
considered any other learning as
superGluous
But that has long since been
changed, due to advances in sci
ence and industry that have
brought us more comfortable living
with less and less human Drawn
involved. The farmer no longer
performs the backbreaking chores
he once did, and performs his job
with little gueSSWork. He has been
TO college to learn the science of
farming. Those people whose fam
lilies have: followed trade, now
learn. that trade in school, and
while they are learning, - increase
their, knowledge in many allied
fields, The yalso have a choice of
learning scores of new trades that
have come into being through new
scientific development. There are
very few fields now in which a
person can work without some
good educational foundation.
This, of course, is true in every
field today. Even those who con-
slider themselves fairly we'll pre-
pared, keep constantly in touch
with latest developments in their
field, or they do additional study
tif their work involves the exact
sciences.
There is still pioneering to be
done, but now it must be done in
new ideas, new scientific growth,
and in a new and more enlight-
ened approach to human problems.
The horizons are broadening every
day, and advantages are growing as
discrimination fades. We ought to
help our young people to under
stand that the future looks bright
er than ever, if only they will help
themselves by becoming we'll pre-
pared.

SMALL BOATS TO AMERICA

The trips from foreign lands by
early settlers Of Minnesota con-
stitute extended accounts OF hard
ship and ambition Among the
manuscripts and stories in the
Minnesota Historical Society are
those which concern this long
journey made by so many thous.
ands OF the pioneer people OF the
state.
Ole Brude lived in Norway and
wished TO Join hts father ut Bear
River in upper 81. Louis county.
In common with many Norwe-
gians. he knew boats and the big
ocean. In 1905 he designed a boat
for n trip to America II was a
sailing boat only Is feet in length.
He helped build II. About the mid
die OF the year he and three COM
panions left Norway. They took
the dangerous north route In a
dangerous time Of the year. Five
months were required for the
crossing. Ole Brude and his
friends wanted TO show the world
what n small boat could do on q
rough ocean.
II IL believed that the Brude
boat with It's passengers for Min
nesota was the smallest craft ever
TO cross the Atlantic.
