We must ask ourselves as individuals, ""Where do I stand in this world of affairs?" We may think that our in dividual life, compared with the mil lions in the world, does not amount to much but each soul goes to enrich en this democrary of ours. "Without an education, we will not get far In the -way of wealth and social learn ing. . ? ? ? There Is no time cf life in which ws set oilr habits, ideals, and standards more firmly than daring the latter l.art of graded school and during the high school days. It is during this time that we decide to do either ot two things: Prepare to go forward in education or drop out and become a back-slider. The axiom, "Experi ence is a good teacher", can be ap plied to the problem of dropping oat ot school. When the minds ot boyb and girls are young, they cannot real lit what an education will mean "to them In future lite. They become tired of the school work, or probably are not passing, and because they feel like they will have a better time <out of school they drop out. It might seem better at the time being but lat er on they regret it more and more every day. Take, tor example, a boy that drops out somewhere in the sev enth, eighth, or ninth grades. He does not seem to wish he was back ib school until he hears school friend* talking about taking part In contests and having enjoyable times at ban quets, etc. Not being able< to parti cipate in these things seems to throw cne backwards. . Then, the high school graduate goes out in life to col lege or whatever kind of enterprise he might undertake. His customs and ideas broaden while the oiia dho dropped'out of school still possesses the low mind The person who went to school develops his talents and makes himself useful. Probably there comes to the one who dropped out a desire to broaden his talent or talents but jUBt don't have the. education, and are too old and set tled to go back to school. Onward he goes through life, never gaining new ideas, until it grows monotonous. In these hard times we need to have more boys and girls going to school. If the country Is in an economic de pression, there Is no need for the youth of today to gradually form an Ignorant nation of the future, our (ountry^s based on true 'morals. Edu cation is the sign of a true mind. We are prcud of our schools and of the trained Intelligence they give us the opportunity to acquire. But what we are for most Is the moral influ ence it has to gradually"bulld a "strong nation. If the average of character in the- individual citizen is sufficient ly high, there is literally no height of ..triumph unattainable in this vast ex periment of government by, of, ?nd for -a free jfoqnle. ??> Marguerite.
