Just before-'closing my school in June I gave the above question to my advanced class in English with . , „ that . , g laminar tne request t hey write me a short composition setting f>rth their ideas thoughts <n the subject. Mv mo- tive for doing this was that I might nsortain, in some measure, their survey of the subject. As an encouragement for their best work, I promised to have their letters printed in the Monitor, Several ot them readily and im- mediiitelvdid their *, A belov vill be found the letters from thow who have responded, I correct el the language, but did | not cluing* a single thought. And a careful 'ending of these letters shows tint these boys have a pretty corect idea of the true end of educaion. Each one has thoughts entirely his own, and when we ombine the thoughts of all the lefcers we see that the arm af al’education should be to pre]tare o:e for .complete This is tin Correct idea. the letter : f The' merlwho have selves of o good ediicatifMrfTia^e the oppotunitv of filling 'wfiX the import-arc places of business, all the office, of the nation, all the leading paces in society, church, and .Sunqy school, and. all the cleanly occupations of man.

Every ' boy • .who really wants to make a •“**» of himself should seek every op- durtmiity to go to scliooi,' and sin mid study hard both day and .1! jght. If he fails to do. this his doom is fixed and he must remain where only manual labor is in dc- j^ind. If a man wants to gt ■),, congress one of the essential qual¬ ifications for his success is a jib- 1 edumition. We iittvo men who are filling prominent post- nous today whose minds and Units have not been properly trained and quickened, and the unsettled and unsatisfactory con¬ dition of our country is largely attributable to tlm »inefficiency of their work.

Farrow. Among the most important places of our nation are needed good, quiet, sober, honest, eduea- ted men,—men who are calculated to foster the interests of our re- public, and better the condition of our people. Every man has the right to be smart, but he must have a keen sense of faith, hope, honesty, ami lime, that he may capable of the finest training and cu turn andpersonal deve opment. " hen m school we should careful 0 apply o 0 r»lve. to hard study. Most lays and girls have good ed- bcutional advantages, and they should strive dilligently to im- prove them. Go to school, study bard, obey your teacher. It does not require riches to get an eduea- tjon. A either is it necessary for you to be thy son of a rich man that you may be smart and useful, Eellow-students, the way is before us; we have only to, take advant- a ge of the opportunities now us and we may reach any degree of honor, fame, or fortune, George \V.
