The power of education is ov

One evening after a fraternity
banquet recently all the broth
ers and pledges left to study—
;all that is. except four brothers
who decided they wanted to take
a trip.
By 2 a.m. they reached the out
skirts of New York City, sleepy
and tired out, but somewhat hap
py, because in a few minutes they
would reach their destination.
A long silence finally was
broken by one of the group, who
'blurted out, "Hey, I just remem
