To Lay A Good Foundation The llaiv.uvl Couiicr prints the billowing aillcle in a i ocelli issue, and as it appears to lis to contain considei able lood tor thoueht, and is u top'e w hich is uppermost on u good man) minds at this time, lite beginning of a new school jcar, we tcpiodiiec it: "lluv e a leasnn for the com so )n sehct.

In orl. i to answer these ijuustioiis siiccssfii'l.t let our young people counsel with Iheir fat Iters and motions, their letch crs and friends, uud study e.ircfuilj themselves to know, if po-sible. fur what nut lire Intended them Then let them select their work, plan for It. piepaie for it, work for it, live for it uud success will crown theii ell'orts '.Si-'ney Miilth siijs it you choose to lepreseni the various calling's lu life by holes iu a table, some circular, some sipiare, some triangular, some oblong, you will geneially llud thai the oblong person is trying to get into tlie tn uiik'ular hole while the siptare person is doing his best to biiucc.u into the round hole. Therefore one of the gi (latest causes of failure iu life is u mistaken calling. Dean Mnith aptly says. "Unites Hud out whole their taluiits lie A bear will not attempt to Ily; A fouudeicd horse will otl debate, liotoio he tries it live buried gate; A dog by instinct turns aside, Who sees the ditch too deep and wide; But man we tlnd the only creature, Who lead by folly, combats nature; Who when she loudly cries, 'forbear' With ubstinuoy llxes there, And where his genius least inclines, Absurdly bends his whole designs, "Some boys arc forced by unwise parents to follow the plow when you sen by their nature that they were in terested for law, medicine, or theology. Some boys are forced to measure tape and calico where they would 'make better farmers than merchants. Some young men graduate from medical oolleges and then poor drugs of which they know little into bodies of which they know less. Such young men would be a greater success swinging the sledge hammer thau using the lancet. Some young men are led into the ministry under some mistaken idea of a call to preach the gospel when their long and tiresome sermons arc suttlcieut evidence that they ought to plow corn. "It may be interesting light hero to know what becomes of our high school gi minutes Knowing this wo may be jablo to plan better the work tho high school should do. After a careful study of this question about seven ycius ago, before we had iutioduced normal tiuiiiiug, manual Induing, business and domestic science us wo ; have in llio last two or unto yeius,i it was found, from letters received i ' liom city superintendents of the sixty strongest high schools tl Nubiuska, C iverlng a period of three years, that IHX) of these high school graduates went immediately to college, univer sity or normal school, 8od went Im mediately into business, Including such work us farming, banking, clerk ing, housekeeping and other occupa tions for earning a living, and IK'O Im mediately, took upon themselves the responsibility of teaching school. All of this was done iu spite of the fact that these sixty of our strongest high schools had been" straining themselves almost to the breaking point for credit at the university. "Now we believe lu the university. We want every high school graduate lu Nebraska who can tlnd it possible to go to the university to do so. But the stern act remains that only one iu ten of our school graduates go to col lege ur university. And then the still sterner fact remains that only one in ten of those who enter the university lluisli the eouisc. The United States commissioner of education is our authority lor these tlgures.
