VOL. VIII.- THIS, MI ID IDE OTHER By MRS. THKO. B. DAVIS Now that young folk* are going home from schools and colleges, l am wondering how many parents will be adjudged behind the times; how many breaches of table etiquette and how much faulty English will be criticised with frankness, if not with sympathy. The young folks are sin cere. They want us to,.be our best and politest selves that we may be a credit to all concerned; if they didn’t love us they’d not worry over our lapses. The.' do not always realize that though the strain of daily living may have worn the fine edge off our polish, we really are Vather a credit to our community— if fm- nothing else than for having pro duced such offspring. . Let us he patient, remembering, it we hold aught against our young crit ics, that nothing is more certain than that the next generation will feel to ward- them as they towards us. And above all. let us remember. Once upon a time, we, too, were young and came home from school. Some of " cem to forget at times that honesty is a great part oi tin foundation in building a character and to regard it as a fancy cornice or cupola that may be left off if we fim it will cost more than we want to pay for it.

ZEBULON, NORTH CAROLINA May 26, 1933 Campbell’s College Commencement As an educational institution, it i.- known as Campbell College, But as a community affair it is Campbell's col lege. It* founding, its growth and pre sent reputation are all centered in and built around a man. The history of J. A. Campbell from the day hi opened a little country school down in Harnett county a half century ago is I that off Campbell College. It is fami liar to most every household in this section of the State. So. instead ot reviewing the familiar and interesting account of how a man struck the tin | der an built a fire that sheds its.light over this and many lands, I will try to tell you what I saw in one day at u Campbell College Commencement. Starting a little after 8:00 o’clock last Thursday morning, we traveled o ver a fine road for 50 miles and reach ed the college about 10:00 o’clock Few visitors had arrived. A number of students were busy on the tennis court while others hastened from building to building. Hre and there were tw* or more seniors in caps and gowns strolling across the campus. We went over to the library build j mg where Dr. Campbell has his office | A half dozen men—trustees and old j students were there. I introduced R I Edd Horton to President Campbell | telling him I had brought him a pros j pective student. The way—his way— j Dr. Campbell pulled that boy to him j and what he sak' won him for C’amp- I bell, both man and college. Though very busy with new comers and a j trustee meeting just ahead, he hai time for a word to evervone and a ink 1 for ail. At 11:00 o’clock everybody gather |od in the auditorium of the I). Rich ; Memorial building. After he exercise? j began, no one stayed outside except j a number of community women who (spread the table for the bountiful din \ nei to follow. The college band anc! j orchestra—and it is a good one—fur nished music f'-r the gathering crowd Dr. Campbell was master of every thing. Matching him as he clipped , here and everywhere, with a pat or | the back for old friends, a warm ham I clasp for the new ones, it wa? not hard o understand he source of his powe. ■ .fill ,i U " -he best in peopie and then -mist, it in helping to realize hi. deals. Judge J. J. Parker of Charlotte , wa.-- the i ommencement speaker. He i< a U. S. Judge, i re-.ding ■ve a tei | i'oiv covering five ,-ta : He spot. ■ Some t meets of th* W id ( ’is He said that our na ion bad neglect led *he spiritual values upon which ou> civilization stands. Ihe solution r n. t to lie found in ocial'sm, but in what Cambell College w doing. A i merica. he said, needs above all elst the strengthening of the individual | character. Get men to do things right 'just because they are right. Bank failures and mod- i n conditions ..aid the judge, have been brought a iiout because the right - >rt of train- Img has not been done in building ! and strengthening character. Two oi I the greatest needs of today are hon | esty in men and chasity in women ! r t is a matter for teachers, parents ' and preachers. ( America needs vision- more met i who can see through the external and j -f-e spiritual values. This is the prae- I tical work of the schools. America I needs faith, probably, more than she linos cha rater, morality, or vision. X< nation has ever been built by t'm I e'-nics or the doubters. Have faith in M le fundementals, in your fellow men. Twenty-five years from now Dr I Campbell will have passed; 25 years! from now seniors of l{>”.*( will he tea /•hers and lawyers. It will depend up«i them to build the sort of civilization ye shall then have. After the address, Dr. Campbell a warded the diplomas and certificate? along with a number of other awards I and prizes. The class was one of th* largest and brightest ever graduated The year just closed was one of th; most successful in the school’s life Nearly 100 more students were en rolled than the year before. Already many have made reservations for next year. Dinner was served for everybody in the beautiful grove on the campus I>r. Campbell asked the students to* ait till the visitors were served which they did. The dinner was served in an orderly manner, and everyone en joyed it. It was an enjoyable, happy occasion. In the afternoon the alumni meeting was held at which Prof. Tyner ot Meredith College spoke. A ball game followed. At night the Dramatu Club gave a play. “Smilin’ Through.” It. was a fine play and the best act ing I ever saw. Dean Leslie Campbell was especially stood, and all the othei characters did well. After spending a day at Campbell College, and seeing Dr. Campbell “in action” among his hoys and girls and hearing his words of wisdom spoket | with laughter and tears. I could n< I longer wonder why his students lov< him and why every father and mothei who know the man would have theii children -it at hi? feet. Campbell College is Campbell's < "1 lege. If you like the man—and who Po-sn't? You must also like the col lege. So I close as I began: Campbell College is an institution built around a man on a foundation God himself uncovered. —T. B. I*.

Dr. M. E. Dodd, president of th. Southern, and Dr. C. C>.

The session of the Southern Baptis* Convention just closing was well at tended and matters of great impoi tance were Considered. Among othe. things, they went on record as op posed to repeal of the 18th amend ment and deplored the prominenci given beer at the White House.

Out in Greeley, Colorado, Judge 1 ('. Coffin na- ruled that it :s ureoii j Ritutional to ?e;l 3.2 beer. In his ul j ing he .-.aid: "Congress, by legislativ* (action, might state that gasoline is re n-d'.fanimahie hut that does not kee: Jit from burning.

A car moving at the slow sp end o. ; j twenty miles an hour requires twenty f •,.* stop under the lx-t oi circum stances after 4-wheel brakes are up plied—and with the average driver it will have moved 14 and on*' half teet before he is able to apply the brakes At 30 miles an hour, it will go 22 feet before he applies the brakes, a:ul a nother 45 feet will be required t brine it to a stop. If it is moving 40 miles ar l our, t'ne brakes will not take hold tin til the car has gone 20 feet, .md 8< feet more will he covered before the car i« stopped.

It is understood that the plan out lined by Mr. Hood requires this li quidation set-up, hut that it will con tinue only till reorganization is affect ed. Unless one third of the depositors I protest against the proposed plan of reorganization, it will be perfected, and all banks in the Page system will open for business under the new arrange ment about June 20.
