Bill and Trina were living together in a shack that Bill had erected. It was more homey .than any of the others in the settlement. because Trina was naturally artistic and domestic. She worked • all day, washing, ironing, cleaning. «itfd fixing'up. which surprised and ann°yed the other dwellers of, f fyC j • place who, saw no -sense in oeirfg I Immaculate, or making a pa lace of -'the home.

"What s the matter with the one yoif got?" VYou can only stew on it. I could ,cook Bill some wonderful things if . I had a real stove. An he's gonna get me one. too." "Who ever heard of a brindlestiff get tin' money enough to buy a stove?" Trina stopped scrubbing and wiped her brow with her sleeve. "What's a brindlestiff?" I "A 'bo with ants in his pants-- can't stay put--Except maybe In Jail." i Trina was indignant,, "Bill can make all the money he wants--if he wants to. An' he's no brindlestiff. He's got personality.

Flossi# continued her berating of ~ --fiili;-ftfld--Trina stoutly continued to defend him. She defended him be cause she believed, not because she knew. It was her faith that made her tell Flossie that Bill would get her a "real stove"--not anythirrg that Bill had said to the effect. But it seemed her confidence in her man was not to be unavailing, for Bill at the moment was just turning away from a-vvindow that separated him from the stove Trina wanted lie looked ruefully at the few pieces of silver he possessed.

He had a job to do Th« orchestra was playing the show's i hit song. "What Have You Got For i Me?" The actress was singing, in a soft, husky voice. Bill waited until ; she finished the last chorus with • the^jine: What have you got for t me? and then shouted "Sumpin"!" and jumped from the box onto the tage. The audience howled with laughter and applauded the 'comedian.' Bill faced a blazing, furious musical comedy star The music stopped. 'Here's what I've got for you." he said, and slapped the paper in her hands. "A summons." He indicated the audience with a sweeping gesture. "An" you can't say I ain't got witnesses. The show's swelL I'm gonna thank the lawyer for gettin' me tickets." With a genial wave of his hand to the enraged and speechless lady of the foot, lights, he headed for the wings. < With that five dollars, Bill bought Trina her stove on the installment plan.. A few days later Bill got a job stilt-walking in the theatre district. His wooden supports raised him 19 the level of an ordinary secondstory window. It was while he WAI taking his' gargantuan strides down Tin Pan Alley that a feminine volc<» hailed him from a music publisher's window. "Hey, you! Big boy!"' Bill maneuvered his sticks around and found himself facing a smiling Fay La Rue. who was leaning out the seeoruJ story window of the building I- 'Got any more summonses for me?" ,« Bill grinned. "Not today." ( "D'you know, I called up the lawyers' office and left word that I wanted to sejs the man who served those papers on me." "Yeah." .. "They sent somebody named Bragg. I asked him to get In touch with you. Did he?" "Yeah." - , , "Why didn't you look me up?" ' "I was) busy " Fay looked Bill over appraisingly, Thousands of young people annually are graduated from our universities and colleges. Many of thesd receive advanced degrees which indicate they have been prepared for specialized lines of activity. The professional schools also have turned out a large number of doctors, engt> neers, dentists, and tn any others Intent upon different jfrofessional careers. It Is always a thrilling experience to witness a large group of young people receiving the degree for which they labored from four to six •yeara, and in some cases, ev^n longer. We do not forget the sacrificial devotion of parents who made this opportunity possible for their children. In some cases young people have themselves worked their way through col ^lege. They perhaps appreciate their education more than those for whom Plenty of money was furnished through •the college course. When we work for something we want, we appreciate it more than if It is given to us without any effort on our part. The question arises, however, what pOf the future? What will become of all these young people with their diplomas justly earned? Will they find some work to do in their chosen fl^ld of activity? Will all the doctors and engineers find-jobs waiting for them? "A review of the condition of our economic life during th& past few years readily convinces us that such is not athe case. In one of out- large cities, where lh6 CWA was active In furnish-" Ing .work for the unemployed, could be found men who held degrees from colleges, and in some instapces, advanced degrees ftom foreign \inversities." A diploma from an accredited college does not guarantee a position. Preparation for a career one thing, the" realization ,of-one's Ideals in thai career is quite another thing. Many other requisites are essential to success besides a college degree Doubtless one of the most valuable experiences one learns in college is adaptability and perseverance without which no success la possible, The greatest lesson one learns In college Is: hfiow to work; how to adapt one's self to unusual and discouraging environments. The cultural advantage of a college education is most valuable, providing it prepares the student to meet the real issues in life. "Wisdom Is the "Tprlnclpal thing, therefore get wisdom," said the wise man of long ago. C>by Western Newspaper.Union. SLOCUM'S LAJCE H. L.
