“Students Forever”
Ex-Governor [Haines of Maine, after leaving the govern~
or’s chair, returned to college to continue his education. Ide
was already a graduate of the University of Maine; had
been one of its trustees for years and was president of the
alunmi association; then he again became a student. That
is the way with all wise men—they are students forever.
Broadly speaking, education simply means a knowledge
y sp ply
of men and things. We can learn “things” in the school-
room and laboratory, but we can never know “men” except
through association. The ordinary college course requires
the student to spend nine or ten months each year in the
schoolroom learning “things,” but makes no provision for
for him to study human nature. That is why sO many young
men and women leave college only half educated.
Why not study “men” during your vacation ? You can
do it and earn your scholarship at the same time. The col-
porteur work opens the way. It enables you to earn while
you learn. Your ultimate aim is to become a worker in
God's cause. Three months in the colporteur work will be
of greater help to you in reaching that goal than a whole
year in school. There is no better way to round out your
education as you go along.
Governor Haines found the value of his class work
doubled because he had rubbed elbows with the world.
It paid him to study the year round. It will pay you. Try
it this year.
