Flames of Happiness
I That Need Never Die
| > I always think of happiness as a
I “ flame . I always have, all my life. It’s
I just a fancy of mine, but it’s as clear
I as anything. Fire—a lighted fire
I throwing a gleam across the grayest
I day, an indistinguishable .fire. Be-
I cause, however it dies down, you can
I find embers at the heart of its ashes
I and build it up again with what you
I have. Almost without knowing it, al-
I most in spite of yourself, you do just
fl. that. You take what you have: love,
Bf of course, if you are one of the lucky
■ ones who have it, or friendship—any-
I thing that means happiness to you.
I Sometimes the fuel that comes to your
I hand is the joy you have in your own
I mind, in learning and thinking, in
I books and plays and music. Sometimes
I its religion. Most people, after they're
I older, keep it burning with work,
I hard, clean work and the little things
■ that make it crackle —jokes and non
fl\ sense and bits of singing and laugh
fl * ing. Now and then, of course, you
fl pile it with the driftwood of your am-
■ bitions, and your dreams shoot up and
■ up. It’s a fire that costs you some-
I thing, happiness; but you keep it go-
I Ing, as you keep life going. I sup
fl pose because it is instinct to preserve
I "hat's yours.—From “The Flames of
fl Happiness," by Florence Ward.

College Scholarship
Offered Student For
Good Roads Essay
Washington, D. C., Feb. 18.—An 1
offer of four years at college with
all expenses paid is contained in the
announcement made here todav by
tivfi Hlghwai i Education Board of the
sixth annua good roads essay con- ,
’ ? W ! h i !Ch a!1 hi&h school students
are eligible, to participate.
In line with administration policies
tending toward economy, students
are being requested to write essays
on the subject “Economics Result
ing from Highway Improvement,”
having in the two preceding years
P a P er s on subjects dealing
with highways and religion and high
ways and home life.
The contest in the various states
usually is sponsored by one of the
leading universities or the state de
partment of education, which aids
m the announcement of the contest
and at its termination names compet
ent judges to determine the best es
say from that state. This applies
also to the District of Columbia and
the outlying territories.
The principal prize is a four years
university scholarship, offered by H.
S. r irestone, of Akron, Ohio, a mem
ber of the Highway Education
Board, of which the U. S. Commis
sioner of Education, Dr. J. J. Tigert,
is chairman. This scholarship, which
in the past five years has been won
by three young women and two young
men, provides that the successful
contestant may attend any college
or university in the United States,
with tuition, room, board, books and
special fees paid by the donor. It
is said to be the largest single edu
cational award offered in this coun
try, and its estimated value to the
winning student is approximately
? 1,000 annually, or at least $4,000
for the four years.
Many state awards are offered by
the co-operating organizations in
cluding tuition scholarships, cash
prizes, loving cups and medals.
By educational authorities this an
nual competition among high school
students, started in 1920, is declared
to have been the first essay contest
to assume national proportions. It
annually attracts approximately a
quarter of a million contestants, the
number who submit essays depending
upon the nature of the subject. En
tire high schools often participate
as part of their school duties. Es
says are received from every state
in tjie Union, while many of the
best come from outlying territories
and possesssions, such as Alaska,
Hawaii, the Philippines, Porto Rico
and the Canal Zone.
The award in 1924 went to John
Liska, a Wisconsin high school stu
dent, whose subject was “The Rela
tion of Improved Highways to Home
Life.” The first winner, Miss
Katharine Butterfield, of Weiser,
Idaho, was graduated last year from
Northwestern University, near Chica
go. Other successful students were
Miss Garland Johnson, Bridgeport,
West Virginia, 1921; Karl G. Pear
son, District of Columbia and Linds
borg, Kansas, 1922, and Miss Doro
thy Roberts, Harlan, Kentucky, 1923.
W’ith the exception of Liska, all of
these students are in college, and he
will enter when he has completed his
high school course.
Rules of the contest do not limit
participation to high school seniors,
but provide that any student attend
ing high school may submit an es
say. No other conditions, except
those governing the preparation of
the paper itself, are provided. Es
says must not exceed 700 words in
length and must be handed school
principals or teachers not later than
May 1, 1925. Selection of the best
essay is by a process of elimination.
Complete information will be for
warded each person who inquires of
the Highway Education Board, Wil
lard Building, Washington, D. C.
The best essays of previous years
have been collected in pamphlet form
and are available for distribution.
These booklets may be found in most
libraries, or had upon request to the
Board.
