He is the only unmarried professor on the faculty, vhich difficulty can be remedied. CREATING DEMAND President Coolidge in a recent ad dress, dwelt upon the service render ed by advertising. He showed how advertising creates demand, and if it was not for demand, goods could not be sold. If all advertising were to stop for a year, American business would be ir. a terrible hoie. The demand for commodities would be greatly reduced, many factories could not got enough orders to run on, many concerns would j fail because of the lack of business and inability to work off their goods. The result would come near prostrat ing American industry. : En Passant * ♦ W. W. H. Money talks—but not long.

BREAK The official announcement from Da vidson college that football affilia tions with Presbyterian college have been severed, does not come as a sur prise. A rumor for several weeks has been circulating to this effect ,and the public is glad that the athletic author ities of Davidson have at last come cut in the open and confirmed the re- pert. If Davidson desires to drop Pres byterian college from its schedule,} that is its privilege, but it shows a peer spirit of sportsmanship. If I there are two teams above othqrs that should meet on the gridiron, it occurs to us they are P. C. and Davidson, j representing as they do the Presby-1 terians of the Carolinas with many j graduates and friends of both institu tions scattered ovci the two states. The game has always been a drawing card and has held a conspicuous place on the schedules. When it ha? been suggested lately, through the press, that the two institutions would prob ably not meet next year, there has been a general Parents ought to consider them selves lucky, in these mad times, if they are not criticised more than once or twice a day by their children. Uncle Joe Cannon used to say that congress couldn’t get along without him. But it will have to try it now, for he’s dead.

Few people object to you when . ss your motives are considered to be sin- s cere and genuine. You are only ob- .ectionable when you put on motives that do not belong to you. Ihe thing people do not like most of all is to have you think you can deceive them. As long as your actions are genuine and real, they know how to deal with them, but when they are convinced that you are endeavoring to overcome them by trying to borrow words or actions or motives from someone else they do not like it. So they tell you to “be yourself.” t)f course we cannot express all of our emotions of feelings perfectly. There is a certain amount of self- control required by ordinary decency but at least those feelings that we j express should be those that are ours unquestionably and not those we think we sl&uld have. A good many people are sorry for themselves, not because of the hard time they have, but becauM of the hard time other people think they ought to' be having. It is very easy for a preacher or an actor or some such a one to think that he is working hard when everybody says that he is. If he would honestly look at himself and consult his own feelings alone, he would realize that he is not working hard at all. Self-pity arises from a sort of bor- rowed notion of ourselves. Oliver Wendell Holmes said that there were several Johns in one per son—the man John is, the man John thinks he is, and the man John othe; people think he is.
