GOING TO SCHOOL AGAIN!!

WHETHER or not Life has any definite purpose inherent in it, is something which is pondered to some extent by every normal human being sometime in the cycle, or rather, in that arc of the cycle which spans the time from "cradle to grave." It is possible only to a self-conscious -- a human being to thus ponder, if only for an instant. To the kingdoms below the man-stage, life is just to be lived, to be preserved at all hazards, and as long as may be. It is possible only for a human being to ask, "Why do I live?" "Why do I want to be comfortable?" "Why do I wish to preserve life as long as possible and at all hazards, even at the expense of my fellow creatures, man, or beast, or plant?"

So going to school again, with the definite object in view of finding answer to all of our questioning, is not such a painful process to contemplate when a possible result is considered -- the obtaining of knowledge of such a degree that the possessors of it will "never again fall into error." This would seem to be reward enough in itself. But there is still the greatest reward to be considered: the joy, the ability and the will to help others.

So let's go to school again!
