THE EASTER SEASON 1 . Easter is at hand, with its spirit ol' growth and rejuvenation. It brings to our mind the awakening of hie, the zcst and joy of living. It is a reminder that youth must te served. That service is essential, for our boys and girls aie the be t security for the nation’s future, 'i hoy are the torchbearers of to morrow, our country’s prop and mainstay, its huil.ieis and deienders. ln( this nation youth has unob structed opportunities; every voca tion is open to its enterprise and a bility. Our educational system gives free access to learning. Our publ c schools not only equip our boys and girls for citizenship, by training their minds and bodies, but incul cate by precept and example the principles of democracy. How our citizenry has respond, and to its opportunities is shown by u, - ures denoting the progress of edu cation. In 1880 one out oil ovc y six was without schooling; iiLl92o. forty years later, only one in™even teen. Had our population increased ns rapidly in ratio as our high school enrollment, since 1800, it would number today nearly seven humir and million. The increase in enrollment of air common schools during the ten year period ending 1920 was more- than twenty per cent. It is gratifying to note from the foregoing that wg are regarding ed ucation a.' a vital factor. Th sis the day of educated boys and grD. More and more Will they on maturi ty be drawn into the ranks of busi ness. Commercial and mercant.le life is fast f<llowing the professions in its call for organized knowledge. That we are appreciative of the won derful part our educational system plays in the progress of the country the growing attendance in all our institutions attests; a growth stimu lated not merely by increased popu lation but a growth indicating a rec ognition of the value of schooling. With the progress of the n tion the schools, too, have advanced. Their scope has been enlarged, the technique impioved, their physical plants standardized, and the quality of equipment bettered. The cost of | education is a relative term and will admit of comparison only in terms of service rendered. The rapid strides of our educat'on are comparable only to the advance in our inventions, and this is an inventive age in which America r'n s in prominence. During t’-e last fifty years there have been fifty outstand ing inventions. These represent the greater factors in our present-day civilization. Education* has been keening step with this progress. It has seen the induction or spread of the Junior High and Consolidated Schools; the Industrial and Voca tional Schools; the Continuation and Americanization Schools; the devel opment of such departments a* Health, Art and Music; higher teach er requirements and teaching stan dards; increased civic pride and a higher conception of what an effi cient school system means. Tts re flection in the industrial l’fe of the nation may h e seen in the instsnee of a large industrial concern with 71 nor cent foreign born on its pay roll twelve years ago today revers ing the figures wdth 60 per cent na tive born. It is needless to s-iy that these altered figures relate the new attitude of industry toward ed ucational standards. Our young people are the.nation’s crusaders and their armor is educa tion. —Better School Leng-e | LOC. 4Z, I Mrs. D. C.

Frequent Bilious Attacks "I suffered with severe bili ous attacks that came on two or three times each month,” says Mr. J. P. Nevins, of Lawrenceburg, Ky. “I would get nauseated. I would have dizziness and couldn’t work. I would take pills until I was worn-out with them. I didn't seem to get relief. “A neighbor told me of BLACK-DRAUGHT Liver Medicine and I began its use. I never have found so much relief as it gave me. I would not be without it for anything. It seemed to cleanse my whole system and made me feel like new. I would take a few doses —get rid of the bile and have my usual clear head, feel full of pep, and could do twice the work.” Bilious attacks are '‘sea sonal" with many people. Millions have taken Thed ford’s Black-Draught to ward off such attacks, and the good results they have reported should induce you to try it.
