It is on the mid-Pacific Island of Rotuma, a small member of the Fipian group, as the story is told by Chief Officer It. N. Wilson of the Matron steamship lines. Though natives tic only a few generations removed .from cannibalism, canni-balism, Wilson said. 'Rotuma has a prohibition law that ' absolutely works. : "If there 13 any ; place In tho world whore a sailor can't find u drink."

There were reactions to jhis declaration. Among others, . youth began to wonder if they could afford af-ford the time for preparation.' Those in middle life were distui bed with the hazards of losing their jobs. .f H i&-;v' ..;) ; ' It is unfortunate that forty seems in many cases 'to be .the. dividing line. A few of those employing help have "drawn the - age line at forty. However, 'for the man oyer forty there need be no more concern over his job than at any other age If he has sufficiently prepared himself to i meet just such; conditions- To that end, hi training, his knowledge, his vision, his horizon, must be bigger big-ger than hla immediate job. .That is a parfof an earlier; training and cannot be acquired at the later age. Most Efficient Age The forty' age declaration has reated much discussion at luncheons lunch-eons where business men assemble. The first impulse was lo turn ; to "Who's Who", but this Ust has been over-worked already, and It was desirable to have figures from the immediate present. The directorate of the United States chamber of commerce suggested- Itself. The' personnel of .the directorate is made up of men who have made notable contributions to leadership in industry. and businesu. "Has-beens" are not elected to the board of directors of the' United States chamber.vof commerce.. SeW tlons are" made t from: men 'who are still going forward, hot those who are 'slipping back. -i :.' :'v"'.. The average age of the 4C 'direct lors of the United States chamber of commerce in fifty-seven years. The youngest director is forty, the eldest eiarhty-four. Only 15 per cent of the entire directorate are under fifty years of age. Fifty-two per, cent are 'between the ages of fiftyx and- sixty, and 32 per cent are over sixty years of age. These figures materially advance the age of highest efficiency. '.. Probably ' some explanation of this showing may be attributed to the fact that 72 per cent of the directors acquired acquir-ed adequate educational training aa young, men this training measured , in the terms of present-day stand- ards. ''.. v It i would seem, therefore, that sJiieMs At S.J .'.V men have not reached their highest efficiency at forty; that the youth devoting his time to schooling is In line to advance his age of highest Efficiency; that there is adequate time. in a boy's life to, acquire his schooling, leaving an abundance of opportunities ahead of him to acquire leadership in business, industry, in-dustry, or the professions; and that the boy who is now laying the foundation foun-dation through schooling for broadening broad-ening his hoi iclon will reduce th? hazards of unemployment In later life. With the youth having adequate time for schooling. It would seem the part 'of wisdom to get It whll j It is available. The return to school is the. first ttep in laying a foundation' founda-tion' for the future. In . the light of these facts, parent and pupil may well reflect seriously befutu deciding thut the latter may dio; schooling- Theie Is adequate time for training. 1000 Students Enter Springville Schools With the opening of school !u Splingvllle Tuesday more than :i thousand students enrolled in the various grades" and high school departments. de-partments.
