THE AIM OF EDUCATION
The student says books.
The scholar says knowledge.
The preacher says character.
The minister says seruice.
The philosopher says truth.
The artist says beauty.
The epicurean says happiness.
The stoic says self-control.
The Christian says self-denial.
The Democrat says self-govern¬
ment.
The statesman says co-operation.
The ruler says loyalty.
The patriot says patriotism.
The judge says justice.
The aged man says wisdom.
The soldier says courage.
The editor says success.
Tne manufacturer says efficiency
The banker says wealth.
The dreamer says vision.
The child says play.
The maiden says love.
The man says work.
The friend says friendship.
The pedagogue says personality.
The physician says health.
The biologist says growth.
The psychologist says unfoldment
The sociologist says adjustment.
But the true educator says all of
these, and more, must be the aim
of education. To realize many of
these ideals of education, the true
educator feels that the school needs
greater co-operation, greater sup¬
port, greater democracy and great¬
er efficiency. Our schools ase do¬
ing a wonderful work, but not half
as wonderful as they should do.
The aim of education is broader
than mere scholarship. Schools
endeavoring to promote scholarship
are (doing good, but scholarship
alone is only a part ef the great
work of education.
Education is br ,adej than even
the schools,
Stale Sunday School Conven¬
tion Meets in Atlantn,
June 15-16-17
Et a meeting on February 2, of
leading Sunday-school and church
workers of Etlanta at the Georgia
Sunday-School association, an in¬
vitation was extended to the cen¬
tral committee of the association to
hold the 1920 state convention in
Atlanta.
There was a joint meeting of the
central committee of the Georgia
Sunday-School association, and the
program committee, immediately
following the meeting of the At¬
lanta leaders, at which time the in¬
vitation was accepted to come to
Atlanta for the i 92 o convention.
The dates agreed on are June 15,
16 and 17. While it cannot be
stated at this time who the out-of
state speakers will be, the program
committee is planning to give the
best program ever offered at a state
Sunday-school convention.
Last November, in the meeting
of the state executive committee, it
was voted that all who attended
the 1920 state Sunday-school con¬
vention would pay their own enter¬
tainment expenses, as is the case
in practically all other conventions.
It was also voted in this meeting of
the executive committee tnat there
would be no registration fee, and
the meeting would be open to all
Sunday-school workers who wished
to attend.
I'NUSUALLY GOOD MEETINGS IN
CITIES OF GEOUGIA
From the office of the Georgia
Sunday - school association also
comes the news that during the
month of January the meetings
held under the auspices of the asso¬
ciation were unusually well attend¬
ed. During the month schools of
method and county conventions
were held in Athens, Augusta, Sa¬
vannah, Valdosta, Columbus, Al¬
bany, Americus and Macon.
The records from the eight meet¬
Devoted to the Agricultural, Commerciil in! Industrial Interests of White County
ings show that a iotal of 124 Sun¬
day schools were represented by
62 pastors, 77 superintendents, S10

It Ain’t No Use to Grumble
(By J. F. Fodhaski)
It ain’t no use to grumble and
It’s no use to complain ;
Just take life as it comes to you—
Sunshine, cloud or rain.
For grumbling ne stopped tlie
rain ;
It never will, 1 know.
It never caused the sun to shine
Nor made the clouds to go.
Your life is what you make it, sir;
It all depends on you.
You’ll never find it happy if
You growl and fret and stew.
If somehow we could have the power
To see beyond the years,
We’d mold our lives that we
find
The joy, and not the tears.
But God so made the world that we
Shall live and never see
Those thinga that lie lie beyond the
years
Awaiting you and me.
So let us not find fault witjj.fife.
Whatever may betide ;
Bui let us ail be optomists
And see the brighter side,
It ain’t no use to grumble and
It’s no u.-e to complain ;
Just take life as it comes to you—
Sunshine, cloud or rain.

CLEVELAND, (Mimi A, MARCH 5, 1920.
In this day of increasing public
intelligence, two rival theories of j
taxation have come to death grips
One is the old theory of a dead
level distribution of the Jbnrden ofj
government, in the direct propor¬
tion of the property owned, with
head tax to reach the man of no
property. The other theory would
lay a proportionately larger burden
upon wealth held in excess of or
dinary need, in exoneration pro
tanto of holdings within such lim
it. This latter theory takes account
both of ability to pay and of l lie
impolicy of the undue concentra¬
tion of wealth in the hands of it
masterly few. Ir recognizes the
facts of our economic system that
lend themselves to glaring inequal¬
ities in the distribution of wealth,
and would mitigate the evil by an
intelligently discriminatory use of
(he taxing power. It is the theory
of t he graduated income (and in -
heritance) tax.—Carter’s Weekly.
News in Advertisements
“I wish this old paper wouldn’t
print so many advertisements,”
said Mary as site sat on the porch,
with the home paper in her hands.
Here’s it whole page Aiith hardly a
word of reading on them.”
••Why, I gel lots of news from
the advertisements,” said her moth¬
er, who had been waiting patiently
until Mary goi through with the
paper. “We learn a lot about the
folks we know from the ads in the
fiaper. Then I’ve learned a good
many devices that have helped me
in the housework ; and father has
found new things to better the te^
suits of his farming.”
The Considerate Editor
In no other class of writing do
editors, particularly country editors
show such diplomacy, kindnes.
and good will as in the publicatios
of the marriage of young people
A peach blossom of a maiden mae
hitch the car of her destiny to the
most useless dude in the neighbor¬
hood, yet tlie local editor will come
across with a nuptial essay that
will gladen the heart sf the most
\ doubting and tearful mama. Well
honey is better than vinegar and
Florida oranges are better than
green persimmons.-Dawson News.
A surprisingly large per cent of
nconstancy and incontinence on
he part ot husbands and wives,
nd an equally large per cent of di
orce tragedies are due directly to
■he fact that married folks are not
fficiently loving to one another,
lie average man is at heart simply
big baby, and lie can no more
ive, prosper and be happy without
lot of love than a baby can thrive
and grow without it. In short,
love, is what the average
lives for primarily. This
makes men slave and scheme
and contrive for success and world¬
ly means. That wife, therefore,
who would keep her husband fond
and true, t^hottld be liberal with her
“kisses and caresses—generous with
her affection. And the same is
probably true from the other side
of the partnership. That which
men and women crave and do not
receive at home they naturally seek
abroad.
Exterminating Harmful Animats
Live stock and wool valued at
! ? 20,000,000 art- lost annually
through the depreciations of wild
animats. The values of farm
produce and forage destroyed each
year .by rodents is approximately
*300.000.000. It is estimated that
the households of/ this country sits
t tin at annual loss from rats and
mice of $aoo'ooo’ooo.
Let the Editor Do It
Some people evpect a newspaper
to right all the wrongs, voice till
the complaints and remedy all the
shortcomings of the community.
They will approach the editor and
ask him to say things they would
not dare to over their own signa¬
tures and then get mad as a hornet
if he refuses their request. Such
men are moral cowards whose con¬
victions could be washed off with
soap and water. They are prone
rosay:“lf 1 run a newspaper 1
would say so and so.” But the
chances are nine to one they would
not.—Walton Tribune,
