O. Box 1193 Phone 2348-L2 | Corner Asheboro and Trinity j Dr. Edgar W. Knight was the speak er at the Open Forum Tuesday night, Noa-ember 2. His talk was on the schools of Denmark. The speaker was introduced by Chairman C. A. Hines. Dr. Knight first stressed Danish teachers and their excellence. “One of the most important lessons in edu cation which North Carolina can learn from Denmark is in the training of teachers. Denmark demands that teachers possess adequate preparation and training. This demand grows out of Danish respect for thoroughness and excellence, and this respect is the re sult of a thorough and effective sustem of education. Teachers are carefully selected, properly trained, well reward ed, and pensioned by the state,” said Dr. Knight. “Education is the master builder in Denmark, Avhere democracy seems also to have been made a reality. Good schools for all the people have been the rule for generations. They have prac tically wiped out illiteracy. They pre fer the pressure of just taxation, how ever heavy, to any load of ignorance, however light, and the dangers that al ways stalk in its step.” Denmark is one-third the size of North Carolina. Last year, $500,000,- 000 Avas put in libraries exception the royal library and the library of the UniA^ersity of Copenhagen. I^our cents per inhabitant was the amount spent by North Carolina. The asking of questions by those present brought on further discussion. Dr. A. P. Kephart announced that Bruce Bliven will be the next Open Forum speaker. The subject of his talk is “Debunking Politics.” DEBATING CLUB HAS ITS TWO OCT. MEETINGS A valuable addition to the Rogue’s Gallery of the Senior classes was made the evening the 29th near nine o’clock when James Clements, notorious rascal, was dragged before the camera to have his “mng mapped.” Clements stimggled savagely to es cape, but, secure in the arms of four husky blnecoats, he was compelled to submit. The camera creaked from the severe strain, it is said, but being a spe cial type, guaranteed to photograph all faces, it did not break. This is the first time Clement's photograph has ever been obtained, due to the comparative weakness of the old style cameras; and the police are jubilant over their suc cess. Clements was captured at the Greens- boro-Spencer football game by that in trepid arm of the law, Carlton E. Wilder. The master rogue submitted to the great detective without a strug gle. Mr. Wilder immediately turned hi mover to the city police. He was wearing a heavy grou-th of whiskers when captured; but was speedily rushed to the nearest barber shop wliere two barbers with the aid of plenty of soap and a cross-cut saw soon got rid of the facial scenery. When the darking crook saw that the inten tion of his captors was to photograph him, he made a last desperate try for freedom, but a flying tackle of the whole force saved another victim for the electric chair. The police are making a determined attempt to clear iij) the crime wave wliich is sweeping the city and are de termined to have pictures of every criminal. Friday night’s haul yielded, besides Clements, two other notorious members of the underworld—Baxter Bason and “Chuck” Burgess. The force is now scouring the city for Paul Wimhish, whose desperate deeds have long terrorized all law-abiding citizens. The chief in a statement Saturday de clared that lie was confident that by Monday the net would be completely drawn around the famous criminals. ‘Six-Year Presidential Term” Subject For Debate October 29. Negative Wins A bill—“Resolved; That the Presi dent of the United States should be given a six-year term with no re-elec tion,” was presented at the meeting of the Debating Club October 29. The member who presented the bill stated that he felt that four years was too short a time, while eight years was too lengthy a period, but that six appeared to him to be a happy medium. There was considerable discussion pro and con, after which the club voted against the bill by a large majority. The members voted to ade •" amendments presented aK.P meeting. The firsturc- pre\ions for a student .ir these provided ’wesent at faculty critic to be J. -■■'each meet, the second that the club should abide by Robert’s Rules of Order. A debate on the query, “Resolved: That.the child labor amendment to the Federal Constitution should be ratified by the states,” as contained in the program for the meeting of October 22. Minnie Herman and Elenry Weiland contended the affirmative side of the question while Elizabth Boyst and Louis Brooks upheld the negative. The decision was two-to-one in favor of the negative. P.T.A.

ROBERT MILES GIVES TALK ON LOYALTY TO STUDENTS IN CHAPEL Discusses Five Phases: Loyalty to Name, Country, School, Church and God RADIO HARDWARE SPORTING GOODS HIS VIEWS ARE TIMELY Encourages Pupils to Bring to Their Country That Which Is Pure, Good and Wholesome “ ‘This is my commandment that ye love one another, as I have loved you. (greater love hath no man than this, that he lay down his life for . his friends.’ This has been the message of Jesus down through the ages. His challenge to us is to be loyal,” said Mr. Robert Miles, college secretary of the Southern Presbyterian Church, at chapel Monday and Tuesday, October 25 and 20. “Loyalty is a subject much discussed in colleges and schools. If we have not loyalty we might just as well pass out now,” continued Mr. Miles. “There are five phases of loyalty. There is loyalty to onr name, our coun try, our school, onr church, and loyalty to God. We carry a name through life and what we do refiects on those who gave us our name. Certainly, loyalty to our country is a trait anyone is proud of. Strive to bring to our coun try that which is pure, good, and whole some.” “Every school thinks it is the best. If yon do not try to make it the best school the thing for you to do is to get out. So>ietimes in the striving for knowledge we get it dishonestly. You are not hurting anybody but your school and yourself when you cheat,” said Mr. Miles. “Are you loyal to God your Father? I think that in this school you have the ardent desire to be loyal to God. I hope that yon may ne^’er do anything to lower the standard of your school.” This was the message that Mr. Miles left with the student body. J. D. McNairy gave a brief synopsis of the three plays given October 28 by the public speaking department.
