THOUGHTS ON EDUCATION
Education is to the mind what
good clothing is to the body.
Knowledge is power. We can
own the universe if we have room
for it within.
The welfare of every child is the
concern ©tf the commonwealth.
“Learning by study must be won;
’Twas ne’er entailed from sire to
son.”
(Gay.) [
“Knowledge of all avails the human
kind;
For all beyond the grave are joys
of mind.”
(Ilogg.)
“ ’Tis education fornr: the common
/
mind;
Just as the tvvijr is bent the tree’s
inclined.”
(Pope.)
“A* mind quite vacant is a mind dis
tressed.”
(Cowper.)
“Ignorance is the curse of God,
Knowledge is the wing wherewith we
fly to heav’n.”
(Shakespeare.)
“To breed up the son to common
sense,
Is evermore the parent’s least ex
pense.”
(Dryden.)
“He sought a tutor of his own ac
cord,
And studied lessons he before ab
horr’d.”
(Dryden.)
“Education is an ornament in
prosperity and a refuge in adver
sity.”—Aristotle.
“The very spring and root of
honesty and virtue lie in the felicity
cf i lighting on good education.”—
(Plutarch.)
“Knowledge is Povigr, therefore
get wisdom. The price of Wisdom
is above rubies.— (Proverbs.)
Business school education increas
es a man’s productive ability 50 per
cent, high school training increases
it 100 per cent, and a college train
ing increases it from 200 to 300
per cent.
Aristotle said, “An educated mar.
differs from the uneducated as the
living differ from the dead.”
Education is money.
Education is business.
Education is citizenship.
Education is leadership.
Education is happiness.
Education is character.
Education is service.—Selected.

When you are in doubt what to
eat wait a while and your appetite
will help you to decide.
Tie this to your thinker: “You
know it is better to have lived and
laughed than never to have lived
at all.’
It is said that it, takes 64 face
muscles to make a frovun and just
13 to smile. Let 13 be your lucky
number. *
Rip the cover off a laugh with
all the ripping rhythm that comes
from the gleeful gurgles of your
funny-bone.
Josh Billings never wrote a bet
ter sentence: “It ain’t no disgrace
to lose out, but to lie here and
grunt is,”
Smallpox, a most loathsome dis
ease, is no respector of persons.
The only one who is protected
against it is the individual who has
been successfully vaccinated.
We need protection against our
neighbor who is not sanitary, who
does not keep his premises clean,
and who will not take proper care
of his infectious and contagious dis
eases.
There is an old saying, “Don’t
monkey with a buzz saw.” And by
the same token, don’t monkey with
a severe cold, for a cold may be as
dangerous, as the buzz sav. So don’t,
monkey.
An observant writer in a farm
paper says that now the farmers
spend more money in trying- to raise
cotton, before a plow is stuck in
the ground, than was formerly spent,
to grow an entire crop. Ain’t it
the truth?

Advertised Goods Reach You
Without Lost Motion
A big part of the cost of living today may be
charged to lost motion, to slow, slipshod distri
bution of goods, and to wasteful selling
methods.
For example, every year tons of
fruits and vegetable rot on the ground,
because it doesn’t pay to pick them.
Discouraged growers plant less the next
season, and the supply of food is redu
ced. Meanwhile, consumers in the cit
ies nearby grumble over high prices.
Demand and supply are not brought to
gether.
Contrast this with the handling of or
anges: $1,000,000 a year is spent for ad
vertising by the co-operative associa
tion of the California Fruit Growers.
A large sum; yet it is onfy about one-fifth #
of a cent per dozen —one-sixtieth of a
cent for each orange sold.
And this advertising has kept down
the cost of oranges—and insured a bet
, ter product.
Advertising, properly done, saves money
for the consumer and makes money for the pro
ducer by driving out wasteful methods, increas
ing volume and cutting down the costs of sell
ing and distribution.

Certainly the work being done
by county agents is educational.
No progressive county can afford to
be without a live county agent. The
legislature provided the way to
raise the money.
