of Rome was that it was a family civilization. And the Germanic peoples who were the founders of modern civilization held to the family as the unit of society in religion, society and commerce. Everything in American life centers directly or indirectly in the American home. The nation rises or falls with it. It is the tap-root of all our activities and development, our development in industry as well as in ethics. For this reason those business men are far
i wrong who sneer at the efforts being made to
conserve the home as the work of dreamers and sentimentalists. If these same business men but

Who Is the Educated Man. Education is preparation for life. And since life is very largely a matter of relationships the term may be defined as "That discipline and knowledge which best equips one to fulfill his functions in the various relationships of life." Of these relationships at least four are fundamental and all important. First, a man lives in relationship with himself. He might go out into the deserts of interstellar space but he couldn't leave himself behind. One has to stay in the company with one's self forever. And an education which doesn't make one an interesting and helpful companion to one's self is to that extent a failure. It is this initial relationship which justifies those studies and avocations that otherwise seem a waste of time; music, painting, reading for its own sake, nature study, fads, hobbies, etc. Because these pursuits make one interesting to one's own self they are essential to any culture. How badly we need training for this purpose is revealed by the number who immediately are bored the moment they are left to themselves. They must read or talk or be busy about something else they cannot endure it. "He knew not what to do and so he swore," says one of Byron's characters ; he knew not what to do and so he did anything, anything to avoid calmly facing his own being, might be written of an increasing multitude. A truly great and educated man is
one who finds himself good company.

on them. More than that, these are the basic industries built on permanent needs. When their market declines it means that the difference will flow into the manufacture of luxuries, a condition which always means universal decay. Save the Shade Trees. If a gang of ruffians went up and down Richmond streets cutting down every shade tree on both sides the town would soon heave with civil war. Fire from heaven would be called down on the depredators and Chief Gormon's braves would be called for on the double quick. Every real estate dealer, every property owner, every renter, and even every propertyless citizen would cry out "Save the trees! They are worth thousands of dollars to the community. Destroying shade trees hurts business, cripples enterprise and robs Richmond of one of its chiefest
Education must also equip a person to f ulf ill , cnarms-
the relationship that he sustains to the family. The girl should be taught to be a bread maker, while the boy should be trained to become a
bread winner.
All this, we believe, would surely happen if
the said band of ruffians were to make their raid. And yet the very same destruction is being done in a less picturesque fashion every day
light plant linemen climb around with saws and axes and lop off branches and limbs with never so much as a by-your-leave. Ignorant tree butchers travel about town and hack away at their undefending victims in somewhat the same fashion a boy chops wood. Death follows in the path of these heedless butchers of the trees. Walk up and down the streets; note how the trees die down from the top after the carving has been done; strike the trunk of a tree a few years after trimming and learn how hollow it is ! When a limb is cut off and the wood left exposed microscopic seeds of fungus growths settle in the longitudinal cells, take root, disintegrate the fibres, and finally travel back down through the trunk until they reach the root tips. When their work is done the tree is left a hollow drum ready to be crushed under the first wind storm. If this butchering is not stopped the good people of this town will discover some day that their shade is gone and then a cry will go up to rock
the heavens. Why not get after this butchery while there is time to stop it?

delicate fancy work and entertain royally, yet cannot sew, cook, and manage a house, her education is deficient. To that extent she is not an educated woman. Since only one of every fifteen women can ever afford to employ help it is nothing short of a calamity to turn girls loose from school who know how to do everything except the one thing she will be most called upon to do keep a house in order. And ditto the young man. If he can't earn a living and support a family he is ignorant though he may be as erudite as Humboldt. Nothing is more disgraceful in our present school system than that so many college graduates are turned loose unable to hold down any job more important than a haberdasher's assistant. Education, as the Irish locomotive engineer said to Wm. Hawley Smith, is "being on to one's job." How many graduates ore on to their jobs? In the third place, education must prepare
one to fulfill his function as a member of society. We suffer, as Josiah Strong has said, from the bad citizenship of good men. The average man can't tell why he votes the ticket he does, can't explain the timplest facts about government, doesn't know the elementary principles of civics and practical politics. One thing that has thus far made a failure of our democracy is the ignorance of men about political and economic matters. And the ignorance of women is as bad. Whether women ever will vote, whether they ever ought to vote, may be denied or affirmed, but that women should no longer remain ignorant of the simple fundamentals of human society, politics and the larger matters of the nation nobody can for a moment call in question. She cannot remain an intelligent home keeper so long as she remains an unintelligent citizen. And as important as all all these is the largest and most inclusive relationship, that which the individual sustains to the universe, the whole of things, in other words, to God. The psalmist rightly defined the man who could plow and harvest but never gave a moment of thought to his relationship with that infinite and eternal Power from whom all things proceed as "a fool." All these other matters, important as they are, dwindle into nothingness alongside this and not to have an intelligent and carefully thought out conception of our connection with the Highest is just to lack that in education which is the most necessary of all.

Coming into view in some places is the Wilson Path leading from the top of the peak to the city of Monrovia About half way up the mountain there is a break in the trees. This break is for the protection of the people in the valley against forest fires These mountains are painted in a dull gray-blue. The sky is a clear blue because the atmosphere in that country is very dry. The white clouds form a very good contrast with the blue sky.

Look for the Sign
When morning Is high o'er the hilltops, On river and stream and lake. Wherever a young breeze whispers, The sun-clad dancers wake. One after one upspringing, They flash from their dim retreat; Merry as running laughter Is the news of their twinkling feet. Over the floors of azure Wherever the wind flaws run. Sparkling, leaping and racing. Their antics scatter the sun. As long as water ripples And weather Is clear and glad, Day after day they are dancing, Never a moment sad. But when through the field of heaven The wings of storm take flight, At touch of the flying shadows They falter and slip from sight. Until, at the gray day's ending. As the squadrons of cloud retire. They pass in the triumph of sunset With banners of crimson fire. Bliss Carman In The Smart Set.
