You know over-confidence is an awful thing. I was just thinking how much better it is to have a low estimate of your value and the value of things relating to you than to think high and have those ideals smashed. When you think you are sitting on the top of the worl4 you find out to your bitter dismay that you are sinking into the abyss. Some say aim at the star whether you get any further than your head; but aim reasonably high and attain that end. Have ambition, not dreams. Some women have a funny sense of humor. As I sit here meditating, I can think of nothing more boring and dis pleasing in my sig4ht than a girl who laughs at a professor's remarks which are not only void of all humor, but are void of much interest and humor quali Blond hair and bewitching eyes looked out at me from under a dainty shawl. The owner of such charm was a young lady of some nineteen years But best of all she was mine for the night, when up stepped a guy with a greater claim than mine, and I was womanless. Oh I that I had made a sacrifice to the God dess of Love and then I would not be weeping in this abject way. But such is life, and why not be a pessimist? That, that will be, will be; and if one looks for betrayal, that one will not be de ceived.

This question so full of meloncholic versacity and truthfulness to life was found in a moth eaten volume in the dark' recesses of that building, the grave yard for departed feme, generally called the Library. How ever, my purpose today is not to tell how T stumbled on this unfortunate bit M. inforrmation, but to declare it and_ apply it -eo this conginneratlea~ - a RICHLAND ALUMNAE The Richland County Alumnae Asso ciation, in a recent meeting announced that they are offering; a scholarship in art to be awarded by the Director df the Art Department of the University.

Have you ever been "broke ?" Now L can image one group grinning an-1 an other missing. But laugh and sn a al you choose but you can't get away frqm the dismal facts.

Nothing is truer than poetry. Keep your troubles to yourself or wear a mask to keep away the dismal imps. A smile on the face is worth a hundred hidden ones. A smile costs so little and means so much-try it once in a while. -U.S.c. Sharkey says that he isn't fond of Georgia's Peaches. This was replied to by Young Stribling: "You know folks, somehow, I never did care so much for the famous Boston-baked beans."

U.der the auspices of the Univer sity Y. M. C. A. a seminar on student counseling and vocational guidance, for faculty members, was conducte.d by Dean F. F. Bradshaw of the Uni versity of North Carolina at Flinn Ilall last Monday, Tuesday and Wed nesday. Dean Baker was in charge of the meetings which were held daily from one until seven P. M. This seminar is the first of its kinl to be held in the South and seemed to be a success. Dean Bradshaw, who is an author ity on personal methods in college life and who is recognized as one of the leaders in the movement among southern colleges in this line, gave in teresting lectures on "The Psychology of Vocational Gu dance." and "Meth. ods of Student Counselling," including an illustrated student interview. He also gave a statement of source ma terial on vocational information and explained several methods employed by various American colleges in han dling this important question. His idea was that counseling is an attempt to assist students to find their own vocation instead of measuring and assigning them. He said that such information should be sought by the student instead of being forced on him by the counsellors. Besides the twenty-two profes.sors of the University who attended the seminar there were representatives from several other colleges in the state, including Dean DuPre of Wof frd, Dean Brown of P. C., Dean Dan iels of Furman, Dean Washington of Clemson, )ean Goodman of Newberry and Mrs. John Drake of Chicora.
