Philosophy of Philosophers
“There is nothing sq sure of succeeding as not to be over bril-
liant, as to be entirely wrapped up in one’s self and endowed with
a perseverance which, in, spite of all the rebuffs it may meet with,
never relaxes in the pursuit of its object.”—Baron de Grimm.

“That man is learned who reduces his learning to practice.”
—Hitopadesa

“War is the foundation of all arts. It is the foundation of all
high virtues and faculties of man. It is very strange to me to dis-
cover this very dreadful truth, but I see it is to be quite an unde-
niable fact. I find in grief that all great nations learned their
truth of word and strength of thought in war; that they were
nourished in war and betrayed by peace. In a word, that they were
born in war and expired in peace.”—John Buskin.

Generally a woman is interest-

he is around, to be interested in
some other man.

only way for a man

It’s all right to talk about
America’s opportunity to capture
the world’s trade, but the thing
to do is to get on a hustle and
capture it.

That pleasant expression on the

Great Britain and France had
two valid reasons for objecting
to the United States buying Ger-
man ships. First they did not
want Germany to get the money
and second they did not want the
United States to get the ships.
Prof. Dyess and his corp of as-
sistants expect to make this the
banner year for the Aransas Pass
schools, and in this laudable am-
bition they should receive the
hearty co-operation of the pupils
and parents. Aransas Pass is
blessed with good schools and the
board of trustees have done their
part toward making them better
by employing a faculty fully
abreast of the rapid growth of ed
ucationa] methods. The biggest
asset of any city is the excellence
of its school system, and the
schools of Aransas Pass are su-
perior to more presumptions cities
The citizens are justly proud of
the schools and will co-operate in
every way to assist Prof. Dyess
