WELL SAID.
In an address delivered to the
students of King's Business College,
of this city, on the 7th of June, Gov
ernor Glenn said many good things,
most of them worthy of preservation.
The following is a fair sample:
"I want to say to the students of
King's Business College that there
is no education, that can be obtained
in this land that can give you more
practical results and more strength
to combat with the world than in
the business methods and teaching
that you get here in Raleigh in this
institution."
His words were well chosen and
the statement was true in every par
ticular. All educational training is
valuable. But the modern commer
cial education, the business educa
tion, is worth more, perhaps, than
any other part of an education for
the practical side of life. In saying
that we do not mean to slur or at
tempt to discount the value of a
college education of any kind. In
fact, the students of any high class
college may graduate and then go
out in the world still lacking what
they would get were they to attend a
first-class business college for the
purpose of rounding up and fitting
themselves for the business that they
may engage in.
Men succeed in every avocation,
almost whose educational training
has been limited, but their success
might have been more marked, more
decisive, had they been better pre
The young man and the young
woman who expect to undertake a
business career in the future .will do
well to enter the contest by first get
ting a business education, even
though they may have had the ad
vantage of graduating at some noted
educational institution. If they do
not, nine times out of ten they will
be handicapped. But if their edu
cation has been dug out of some
ordinary school they will be at a still
greater disadvantage and will stand
in greater need of a businesss edu
cation, which will greatly aid in
overcoming the lack of a complete
college education.
Vacation Days.
"Next to the day when a self-supporting
girl receives her first salary
envelope, or is notified of her first
promotion or raise in salary, I be-Hoirn-
that, the first vacation marks
the most important era of her wage
earning history," writes Anna Steese
Richardson in Woman's Home Com
panion for July. "The two weeks on
salary given by most progressive
firms and appreciative individual em
ployers should be regarded as the
stamp of the employer's approval, tho
reward of honest efforts. When it is
accepted as a right it is robbed of its
individual significance and much of
its real pleasure.

rather recreation, to muscles and

mean absolute quiet, a kimono, a
novel and a box of chocolates. It
means change of scene, movement

"The school teacher or worker in
a small town should reach out for a
broader viewpoint. It will be good
for her to visit some bustling city
with galleries, museums, yes, and
roof gardens and gay restaurants, as
well as points of historical interest.
All through her school term she has
lived in an atmosphere of petty gos
sip and has been giving forth, never
drawing inspiration from otners. inuw
let her flit away to a city where
there is no gossip nor 'neighboring,
where her comings and her goings
are not watched and Criticized, and
where persons and things will yield
inspiration and new thoughts for an
other year's work. She will not find
city life in summer extravagant.
Hotel and boarding-house rates are
generally lower, furnished apart
ments can be rented by a couple of
summer tourists in town for a com
parative song, and a few simple shirt
waist suits, with appropriate hat,
shoes and gloves, will furnish all the
wardrobe needed."
