Another Angle of the Waste Problem
Professor S. L. Sheep, another of
the State's educators, comes with his
complaint against the present school
work of our State by saying, "Mil- j
lions wasted in modern education."
Well, we guos> that is true, but it
also true of every other great
thing. Even our most skillful doctors
tell us that one third of what w eat
is worse than wasted; it makes us
sick, it kills us.
It is also said that more than three
fourths of the heat goes up the smoke
stuck and is wasted with the smoke.
Vet, a part of what we eat keepsyffST'
olive and .the little heat that d\ajrMn
into the water makes the .steajJEhat
turns the big engine. Anil il/fsfcfust
so with everything else. There is
much waste.
Professor Sheep has taught school
foi 49 years and i.; possibly one of
the State's most worthy educators.
Vet, he will have to admit that his '
49 year-ago graduate; will not com
pare with his 1927 graduates in but |
one way; they were further ahead of j
the average of thier day than his this- j
year graduates are ahead of the aver
age of today. It was easy for a man
with a little learning fifty years ago
I'o shine in his community because
there were so few with education and
they had the opportunity to place
themselves in position of leadership.

f same candle i.S placed in a room sur
i rounded by a multitude of'lights it is
not' so noticeable. The reason there
I were fewer mistakes made in the old I
..
school days than now was because
there was so much less done. There I
is not much chance to make mistakes '
when you don't do 'much. Mo one de
nies the thousands of mistakes, sonu-'
of them great, that we are making 1
ill our schools today. Hut we feel !
sure that we are making fewer mis
takes in school than we are out.
- The thing that is just a little'tire
is "Tain't like it use to be when
I was iNboy."
The trend of the day is to move
forward, and certainly the man that
runs the most is the one to fall the
most. Vet shaH we stop running or
shall we move on (mil let those who
will, sit by the side of the road and
count our mistakes.
There Is too much of {lie idea that (
about all the education most folks
I need is sufficient knowledge to be a
i working servant for some other fel
! low, that all they need v to know is
how to feed a machine.
It is a cruel thought. Every baby
turn has the to a training that j
will enabl" it to study the grea l I
problems of life for by so doing we
will have the advantage of morel
knowledge, more power to make our
| world a. better place in which to live.
We are glad it is not Ilk • it use

FELT VERY POORLY 1
Weak and Ron-Down Missouri
Woman Got Strong and Well.
Says Cardui Started Her
On Road To Health.
Clarksburg, Mo.—Mrs. T. G. Harris,
of this place, says:
"For two years I was in very poor
health. Some of the time I was al
most past going. I was very weak
and run-down.
"I tried to make the most of what
little strength I had by taking fre
quent rests, but I could find nothing j
which would start me on the road
to health again, until one day I de
cided to try Cardui.
"I had heard about other women
who had been benefited after taking
it, so I made up my mind to see
what it would do for me. I took
Cardui for several months and was
very much gratified with the results.
"I began to do«ny own work again,
which I had not been able to do for
a long time past My color, which
had been pale and sallow, became
natural, and my complexion cleared
up. I gained in weight and was pleas- i
ed to have an improved appetite.
"When I finished my last bottle j
of Cardui I was feeling better than I
had in years. Now lam strong and i
well."
