Howard J. Sheen rPrincipal (Thr {true Halite of Oitratioit Education pays not solely because it enables people to earn more money or to gain success and fame. Many educated people do not get rich; some earn only a very modest living. Many high school graduates do not become famous: in fact, only one out of sixteen hundred does. Likewise many college graduates do not become great: only one out of one hundred seventy-three does. How. then, does education reward the great majority of us? The real reward of education comes in understanding and appreciation. If you arc educated you do not walk through the world blindly, full of uncertainty about everything that you sec around you. You have read many of the laws that govern the universe. You understand the characteristics of things. Stones and bricks are not merely so many lumps of hard material because you understand how both are formed. I he way men dwell together in community groups and in great cities is meaningful to you because you have learned how this very civilization had its beginnings when men first banded themselves together in tribes that they might be stronger to resist their common enemies. The whir of machinery in great factories is not terrifying because you know the principles of physics that make the machines possible, and you understand, besides, that these busy engines of work turn out manufactured articles so cheaply that people now enjoy many conveniences which were formerly reserved for the rich alone. Education makes it possible for you to see how one thing is related to another. Education pays not merely because it gives to you the ability to read, but because it stimulates in you a tendency to choose good reading. It pays, not alone because it trains you to sing, but because it leads you to like and appreciate good music. It is not only the knowledge that you gain that makes schooling valuable, it is also the pleasure you gain in the use that you. and others more schooled than you. make of that knowledge. Education is more than a question of bread and butter, more than a question of dollars and cents: it is a question of making you see through new eyes the numerous things in the world about you. This is the biggest reward that education gives you. It is not a money reward, but it very naturally makes of you a broad-minded, sympathetic individual who is much more likely to gain satisfactory financial tewards than the dull person who has never seen the educational rainbow. — H. j.
