By ySONARD A. BARREft <5, Western Newspaper Union, - Wltb the return ot autma meny yorihjai neople have resumed their studies in , our colleges and universities In spite of the "harJ times" the number enrolling for the fsgstimeo classes Is stir* prislngly large. We frequently bear the question, asked In all seriousness, How ta it possible for so large a number of graduates to "land a Job?"' The question Implies that the aUImate purpose ol an education Is obtaining e jlob. Is this a correct assumption? What Is the purpose of an education! Why go to college? \ A hasty survey of the tacts reveal that a very large number of persons holding responsible positions In the Irualness world never saw the Inside of college building. It Is also true that to any persons holding: college degrees fre absolute failures In .the economic; World. Two partners in an Important' Industry experimented wltb their pet theories. The one employed a college trained man, the other, one wl o bad only a hlgb school course Both were felven the same task to perform. The one with the limited preparation won over the college man four to one The College trained man developed an ego Complex In his college days which placed him at a great disadvantage in the dally mSrts of trade * The high school trained map had developed tonfidence and assurance, due no doubt to the fact, be was compelled to jsork his way through his limited course of study. Why go to college? Not for the pur jtose of a degree and certainly not foi Job, but rather in order to obtain that discipline of mind and "body" which enables a man to hold a Job when he gets It. Without this discipline education may become more of a curse than blessing. With nlgiii schools offering professional courses and with the advantage afforded by correspondence courses, no .young person need be deprived the privilege of an education, even thoujb tie 'may not have the time or money to go to college If, he be enrolled as a student In a college let him see to It: that he learns not only the facts of his chosen field, but also, how to use these facts In contacts with other people after he leaves college.

A, There's notft* J to the effect that the railroads have reduced the freight rate on hay ami straw to become effective Tuesday; Nov. 6. This reduction comes about as a result of the efforts of G. W. Baxter, head of the Transportation Department of the Illinois Agricultural ass'n, cooperating with the county Farm Bureaus in the northeastern part of this state. At a meet-; ing held on Tuesday, Oct. 30, Farm Advisers Gilkerson, Foley, Wrighlt and Herrington appeared with the L A. A: and government representatives before the Western Trunk Lines Coro-- mittee and testified regarding conditions resulting from the drought. A survey made by the local Farm Bureau on 84 farms representing every township in the county indicated that the 84 farms had purchased 8 total of 1099 tons of hay. These saixie farms? reported additional tons needed in an amount of 1280 tons, or an erage of 15 tons per farm. The emergency rate provides-for a onethird reduced on rhay and a fifty percent reduction on straw. It applies to the counties of McHenry, Boone, Kane, Kendalll, Grundy, Will, DuPage and the extreme northern part of Cook icounty. is 0': S. H. Freund & Son CONTRACTORS AND BVILDERg • ^ .
