COLLEGE OIPLOMA8.
During the thirty days from May
16th to June 15th there will have
been delivered Into tbe hands of thou
sands of young men aud women cer
tificates from Institutions of learning
all over the land, and In accepting
these degrees they will leave college
to enter upon life’s duties, to engage
jin lta avocations and to experience
'its measures of success or failure.
They will start with a great asset—
for an education is an asset to suc
cess. No matter what a man's work
Is be can do it belter If he.Is well
Informed, and while education has a
larger bearing than a mere prepara
tion for one's trado or profession, It
It the very best equipment for any
sort of efficiency.
Whatever your peculiar calling,
your expertness Is more telling If it
rests upon a basis of general culture.
Culture means Intellectual background,
accumulated force behind your stroke.
It tqeans you are not only capable, but
know how to absorb and use tbe ca
pability of wiser people.
It keeps you from becoming a mere
cog In « wheel, a specialized piece
of machinery—It makes you a human
being, alive, vibrant, radiating.
It helps you to gain and hold an in
fluence with people. Many a mother
end father has realised too late that
they had no hold upon their children
because of a lack of knowledge. They
have grown up and gotten away from
them. ,
There never waa an age In the his
tory of tbe world when It was so
true ae now that 1 "Knowledge la
Power.”
Education Is “knowledge"—lta gates
are open to all, and its road is free as
the king's highway.
DR. J08EPH JACOBS.
To Dr. Joseph Jacobi, of Atlanta,
Is ,due the credit of securing recogni
tion throughout the nation of Dr.
Crawford W. Long being the dis
coverer of ether anaesthesia. Tetri
ago Dr. Jacobs commenced the cam
paign of education aa to the rightful
discoverer of tbe boon to humanity.
At that time It was not generally
known outside; of the state that Dr.
Long was the original dtacoverer. So
much publicity had been given to Dr.
Morton and Dr. Jackson as discoverer*
of ether anaesthesia that the nation
accepted the reports as true and for
many years Dr. Long was loat sight of.
But It waa left to Dr. Jacobs to bring
to the attention of the nation and to
the medical societies of the country
tbe fact that this physician bad used
It succeaifuliy Ip his practice as early
as 184}. In order to prove theta aa-
sertlons made by Dr. Jacobs In med
ical journals, periodicals and new*
papers, it became necessary tor him
to produce record*. This was done
and old medical journals carrying re
ports of medical soclaty meetings for
many years back ware dug up and In
them were found the records which
established, beyond doubt, the man
who had been the drat to discover
and to uh ether anaesthesia waa the
Georgia doctor, who waa an unassum
ing man and one who ibrunfc from
publicity; bis only desire being to
serve bis fellow-man.
Dr. Jacobs has asked tbe privilege
of erecting a monument and medal
lion on the University campus in
^memory and In honor of Dr. Long,
request has been granted by the
l and on Tuesday afternoon the
^ unveiling exercises will be held and
another round in the ladder of proof
of the discoverer of ether anaesthesia
will be contributed to the already es
tablished proof to the credit of Dr.
Crawford W. Long.
