Valuable facta so neatly . arranged

This is a rery difficult task. It
takes almost twenty years to acquire
a complete and well-catalogued stock
of knowledge. And even then It
consists only of well chosen samples
Irom all the different lines which
hare been produced in the last 5,00u

Many a man has collected knowl
edge for sixty years and has still
been compelled to order vast quan
tities of necessary facts from the
catalogue each day.
When the young man has finished
laying in the staple Hues at the high
school 'he goes to college where an
enormous collection of fancy educa
tion Is dispensed at rery low rates.
Here he may remain for four years
buying stocks of Latin, Greek, He
brew, archaelogy, pheontology, cos
otology, 'biology, psycho-sociology,
histology, neo-Platonology and other
costly complications with the utmost
Teckiessness. o
Some young men hare unlimited
shelf-room for this sort of stuff, and
when they hare been graduated go
on through life accumulating new
and alarming lines of knowledge.
But many students fill all available
shelves in their memory in their
sophomore year and pile the rest
of the stuff on the floor.
This is a great mistake. Nothing
Is sadder than to see an earnest
young man wading wearily through
98,765 poorly catalogued facts in the
effort to find a little mislaid infor
mation in the art of holding an

Pull Together for an
American Merchant Marine
The war resulted In the creation of a gre.it merchant
marine 10,000,000 tons of American ships which cost us
$3,000,000,000.
Everybody agrees that we must keep this fleet on ths
seas. '
If. we fall hack to pre-war conditions when only 9 per
cent of our foreign trade was carried In American shlp
Ve shall lie In the position of a department store whose
goods are delivered In Its competitor's wagons. , .
Congress Is considering legislation which will perpetuate
our wnr-hullt merchant marine.
Until this is done the ships we have should not be sold
to face conditions which, prior to the war, resulted In the
decline of our merchant marine to insignificance.
This Committee calls attention to these facts because a
right solution of our shipping problem is vital to the future
prosperity of shipbuilding, but equally vltul to the safety
and prosperity of , tho nation.
