OUR LARGEST AND BEST
INVESTMENT
Taking the whole nation into
consideration it is probable that
we spend more money every year
for education than for anything"
else beyond the necessaries of life
food, clothing,and shelter. Certain-
ly we spend, as a people, more
money on schools and colleges tnan
do the people of any other nation.
School appropriations rank next
to those for highways in moSifc com-
munities, ahead of road funds in
many. And there is no other cause
to which so much money is given
by men of wealth who wish to
prove their right to accumulated
means by their wise disposition of
their money.
( Henry Ford has recently an-
nounced that he plans to spend up-
ward of one hundred million dol-
lars 'on educatios. Mr. Ford has a
very practical theory, which is
that the average boy ought to be
taught a trade after he has gone
as far in the general schools as
his circumstances permit. In the
Ford Industrial School at Dear-
born several hundr ed boys are con-
stantly passing through) courses
which turn out the most highly
skilled mechanics and junior en-
gineers in the country. Those who
have the will and the intelligence
to: do so g» fro ri the Ford school to
the great technical universities and
become’ expert engineers; the oth-
er.'’ t: A fail to find and hold
highly-paid jobs.
That , is one purpose of education
—ito enable its recipient to develop
his talents to the best economic
advantage to himself and! society.
Another purpose is to enable him
to get tne greatest possible enjoy-
ment out of life. The joys which
last are those which have their
roots in the cultivation of the em-
otional perceptions. Of these, Mr.
George Eastman believes, music is
the most enduring. So out of. the
sixty million dollars wnich he has
already for educational purposes,
nearly all of it' has gone for the
teaching of music and cultivation
of the appreciation of music.
There is no compilation available
of the amounts lof money- which
private contributors have given for
educational purposes in America.
George Washington set the exam-
ple when he founded and endowed
a free scniool in Alexandria, Va.,
which is still going. John .Smithson
the illegitimate sin of an English
Duke, gave half a million dollars
a hundred years ago to establish a
great scientif ic educational institu-
tion in America, the Smithsonian
Institute iof • Washington. A hun-
dred or more of Andrew Camegies
millions went into educational
funds, not counting tine libaries
which he founded, themselves' edu-
cational institutions. John D.
Rockefeller is estimated to have
given away more than seven hun-
dred and fifty millions, nearly all
of it for education.
.The only cure for the troubles of
humanity is education. It is the
slow hut sure method of changing
human nature. No revolution, no
legislation, no “reform” movement
ever gave humanity a new outlook
on life. The right sort of education
that—in time. It is worth all it
costs.

I ran across this iparagraph in
the note-books of Samuel Butler:
“(Imagine that life can give
nothing much better or much
worse than what I have myself

have proved pretty well the ex-

pain; and so I believe, each in his
own way, does almost every man.”

THE COLON
FARM HOMES SERVED
Progress in farm home better-
ment, which is being made in many
states with increasing rapidity, is
recorded by iM|iss Helen Johnson,
director of home demonstration
work in Alabama, as reported by
the Associated Press. ; •
Referring to what is being1 done
throughout Alabama alone in the
matter of rural electrifiaation,
Miss Jonnson states that since the
movement .was begun in 1924 elec-
tric service has been extended to
7,557 farm customers, and adds:
“As in- the urban home, electri-
city is lifting the burden from
farm people by supplying the ser-
vice needed and wanted to make
their homes . measure up to their
ideals.”
Through the cooperation of agri-
cultural colleges, farm'organiza'-
tions, woman’s clubs and govern-
ment departments with the electric!
companies, farm electrification pro
grams (nave been entered u,pion in
nearly every state with benefit to
the communities served. The move-
ment is as worthy as that for good
roads or any other facility for the
betterment of rural living condi-
tions.

_ jdition®. Physical methods such as
It has impressed me very much hinted above, are much more val-

I do nottl permit my patients to

the height of stupidity is to ima-

Compared with the blessings we

The habit of contentment is
formed, not from witnout, but
from within.
“There is no duty we bo much

“•a® the duty >of being happy. By
being happy, we sow anonymous
benefits upon the world which re-
main unknown even to ourselves
or, when they are disclosed, sur-
prise nobody so much as the bene-
factor. A nappy man or woman is
v better thing to find than a five-
pound note. He or she is a radiat-
ing focus of good! will and their
entrance into a room is as though
another candle had been lighted.”
It is strange that contentment
should not be mere widespread,
considering how very , common and
close at hand are tne elements
that go into it.
Work is one big ingredient. Sim-
ple tastes—the power of finding
great satisfaction in little things—
is another.
The power to take things as
they come, and enjoy them to the
limit, is another. St. Paul, for in-

I asked you for one, how many would you have left?” Sandy
promptly replied!: “SIX.”
