(era — “O, it is excellent To have a giant's strength: hut it is tyrannous To use it like a giant. Erwin C. Cline fhittrtparH JJteaaagp SSOMEONE lias said that a high school education makes one a hundred times as likely to succeed as one without such an opportunity. Education makes one a giant. In myth and in reality we know of giants who, finding it easy to get along because of their power, live an easy, slothful, useless life: they play no part in the world beyond being a freak of nature—an incumbrance on the earth. Other giants there are who use their powers to tyrannize the weaker—to make the unfortunate more unfortunate. But being able to do great things carries the moral obligation actually to use such ability and to use it in a good way. It is clear that it is sinful, if we are giants, merely to do nothing; it is clearly more sinful to use our superior powers in any way that does not help to do the world's work, make others happier, add our excess power to the efforts of those who may lack. Ought not we who have profited from free education take a sober moment now and then to ponder our responsibility to a beneficent society that gave us more power? “Come not within the measure of my wrath.’’ Page nine
