LETTERS TO GUILFORDIAN.
(The publication of letters does not
necessarily mean that their senti
raents are indorsed by the Board.)
The Mistaken Idea of Leadership.
There are people who are al
ways wearing their feelings on
their sleeves, and who always
seem to be out of sorts with the
world. The object of this is not
to commend the virtues of such,
but rather to point out how much
more likeable these sort of people
are than tlio.se who have no feel
ings at all —those who (lo not try
to cultivate the finer qualities
which any real gentleman or lady
must .have.
On every college campus are to
he found no small number of such
people. They seem to think that
they have the inherent right to
say just what they think at any
time, regardless of everything. It
is very unfortunate that some peo
ple of this type hold offices for
they really seem to think that
leadership is not making the ones
who are followers glad to follow,
hut exerting a sort of tyrannical
power which sets his own opinions
above everybody's.
Probably the one redeeming
trait of such people is that they
never lose faith in themselves, but
push on and think they are capa
ble of all things.
Such people as these may revel
awhile in their own realm of "sar
casticity," but they must sooner
or later wake up to the fact that
the people, who would have been
glad to listen to them once are no
longer their friends, but have left
them alone I> realize bitter conse
quences.
THE QUAKER STUDY CLASS.
In the fourth meeting of the
Quaker study class held oil lasl
Sunday afternoon the discussion
centered around three prominent
Friends of George Fox's time. De
borah Brown contributed an ex
cellent account of James Parnell,
one of the first and youngest of
the Quaker martyrs graphically
portraying his short but eventful
life and his unusual hardships in
prison. Rhesa Newlin followed
with an able and sympathetic his
tory of Isaac Pennington, illustra
ting the saintliness of his charac
ter, the beauty of his writings aul
his patient fortitude under perse
cution. Prof. Downing then en
tered upon an interesting account
of Thomas Elwood, from whose
autobiography he read numerous
extracts. Elwood's conflicts with
his pugnacious father and his di
