The college is small because Mr. Babson insists on accepting only young people of character, energy and ambition. The scholarship in cludes full tuition and room for six weeks on the campus; and full tuition for the home study covering the balance of the year. The stu dent needs only to supply the books and meals w’hilc on the cam pus. This means "Studying while Earning," and geting personally ac quainted with instructors before beginning home studies.

L ert Webster defines a slogan as “A brief, striking phrase adopted or invented for use in advertising a product, an institution, a com munity, an industry, or the like." Some companies have slogans that are very unique and catching. For instance, a well-known salt manufacturer has on every one of its packages and in every ad, “When it rams, it pours.” and this slogan ls probably known by ma ny people who could not name the salt. A soap company has made famous its slogan. 99 94- 100% pur? ’’ A furniture dealer, stressing its deferred payment plan, says, “Feather your nest with .a little down.” A packing company has the very catchy par aphrase of* a quotation from Shakespeare. “What foods these morsels be!” ?

This merely superficial argument fed up with the New Deal and the Fair Deal, and are ready for a change. The professional office-holders boast of their party loyalty, though tney know in reality that the real Democratic party has been stolen and debauched by the Northern Demo crats and city machine politics.

Controls by their very nature, attempt to replace the natural law of supply and deanana with fal- lable bureaucratic judgment. Polit ical expediency — the everlasting search for votes and patronage and power—'too often influence judg ment. Business is enmeshed in red tape, confused and conflicting rules and regulations. Everyone from the biggest manufacturer down to the corner retail store is bossed by bureaucrats and jobholders who frequently have small understand ing of the matters with which they deal. That is reason number one why we need a change in our na tional Administration— the crowd in office has been there too long. Under such conditions, initiative is lost, ambition is dimmed, le thargy sets in. The inevitable re sult is a drop in the production and distribution of goods of many kinds -—people wnn’t spend their time and money and energies trying to do a job if they see no chance to make a fair profit. Congress long ago should hav with the national party for personal expediency. They stick with the party for patronage and handouts, and a fear that they may lose an important committee appointment or drop back a seat in their seniority of which they continually boast. Voters in this state, in spite of op position from certain office-holders, are assured a free and open choice between the candidates on the tick ets in the privacy of the voting booth, with a single secret ballot listing all of the candidates. The im portant thing is for the American people to vote in this crisis period we are confronting. y PRESIDENT CAPITAL UKL AND UEA1" INSTRAMi: CO .HP ANY COLUMBIA. S. C.
