'TI-IE coME'r 5 fanatics, who try to rule, suppress and excite ignorant people. The same idea, when applied in a modified way to small concerns, has been quite successful. As a rule, socialism is good in theory but pool' in practice. It tends to do away with the individual. The desire to get ahead is the backbone of a strong na- tion. -R. S., '35, Pl? if SF Why We Should Graduate From High School Can anyone say that there is no need of an education in this day and age? Civilization is so far advanced that it needs educated people to run the world's business. The person with a grammar school education is not fit, mentally, to undertake the great struggle of life, with its many pitfalls. With a good high school education, a person is entitled to bet- ter types of work and higher wages. The ill-educated man or woman works harder and receives less wages for his labor than does the high school graduatef If a high school graduate desires to further his education by going to col- lege, he may do so without trouble to his career. The person who has been out of grammar school for many years and then suddenly decides to obtain a higher education, must spend many precious years of his life to do it. Not only does high school give book learning, but it also teaches us to respect and obey. We learn to get along with our fellowmen and to bear with their faults. One of the greatest educations is a social education. Graduate from high school and en- joy life. The graduate has more leisure moments for recreation. His senses are so developed that he is en- abled more fully to enjoy the beau- ties of life and appreciate the won- derful works of God and achieve- ments of man. Let us try, then, to obtain an edu- cation, for however hard we have to work, in the end we will be repaid many times. e -L. A. B., '32.
