The End of School As schooldays draw nearer and nearer to the end it behooves the student, especially those who graduate this year, to look both forward and backward. On the backward side is the year’s work, and the- benefits or lack of them that it has brought. If the student has not obtained one hundred cents on the dollar benefit the year has been completely wasted. After all that is the reason for being in school, the pursuit of knowledge and preparation for life in business or other fields. That idea is rather trampled under and lost sight of in the rush of other amusements. Not that Latin, or higher mathematics confer any direct benefit, but they do train the mind to the cold, analytical way of thinking which is 30 apt to be of value in later life. It will be found that the seemingly useless drudgery of day after day memorizing figures, places, dates and names had its purpose not only in disciplining the mind, but in preparing one for the appreciation of things going on about us, which would otherwise be meaningless. The forward side is the future, and what it holds. Naturally everyone graduat ing, who is not thinking of college or a post graduate course intends to set out and conquer the world of business. As for college it would be wise for everyone contemplating higher education to analyze himself or herself. Thousands go to col lege every year, who have no business there at all, and either fail to make the grade or do not succeed at their chosen professions, which are unsuited to them. This mistake costs much in money and discouragement. It is also a fact that the business world is overcrowded with college graduate doctors, lawyers, economists, etc. Not that it is overcrowded for those of real ability, but so many of these graduates are of only ordinary ability that they are unable to compete with others in their overcrowded field. It may be argued that those who go directly from school to work have little chance for advancement. This however is not true. Application, observation and natural aptitude count for more than a higher education in any line. While sentiment, regret for parting friends, and such thoughts will rule the mind of the graduating student it will be well to temper it with a common-sense estimate of the situation. Wm. K miner.
