This question has probably been asked thousands of titnes by eminent scholars and successful men. Almost every man has a ditierent view point. Some claim that a college edu- cation is absolutely necessary for one to become an educated man: others say that men can he as great without any schooling as with heads crammed with Latin and Greek. They hold up as examples Abraham Lincoln, tlartield and Franklin. They never had what is now called education in one sense of the word, They had no chance to go to High Schools and Colleges as the the youth of today but they had deep in their hearts the desire to get as much knowi- edge from the world as was possible. lt was this motive that made Lincoln sit by the tire at night, reading books borrowed from neighbors tive. ten and twenty miles away. Wellington, one of the greatest men in the world, was considered a dunce hy his parents and teachers. Yet at the age of forty-five he conquered the greatest living general except himself. There are men like Michael Angelo who was made by his parents to study surgery and destroyed his paintings and sketches but what other man could have built and designed St. l'eter's Cathedral. So throughout the world there are thous- ands of cases similar to these. l'eople cram their children's heads with a college educa- tion disregarding. perhaps, the child's natural inclination. If a boy dislikes a thing he will not study it and if compelled to do so he may learn it then from necessity. but in a few years all remembrance of it will slip from him. and it is when we become men. not when we are attending school or college. that the benefit of education comes. There are men having numerous degrees fastened to their names that hardly know how to make change. There are men with heads full of Latin and the dead lanffuaifes 5 FF who know practically nothing of the other branches of education. lt is not only in Colleges and l'reparatory Schools that we get an education but we must learn from the practical side of life. Nature has new lessons far excelling any of those found in college or anywhere else if we but study them. Nobody will say that a good education is a hindrance to a man but if he cannot mix common sense with it he really has no more education than one without an A. lt. after his name but who has a broad outlook on the practical affairs of life. COURAGE OURAGIQ is the boldness to encounter danger: fearlessness in all things which demand the greatest daring and
