IV'iV. *\of So Encouraging h or the i.raduatc There was once a tinu when positrons await ed the young college graduate, but apparent ly that day has gone and the young people are having to go out into the world and do battle within the ranks of common labor to establish a foundation that will support their climb in life. Such a procedure is not at all encouraging -to'the young man who has spent four years or more preparing himself foi this oi that job, but ll he refuses to start at tin bottom and bat tle his way up he would not ordinarily succeed under more favorable circumstances So while the scarcity of jobs may prove discouraging, that scarcity may be the factor that shells the strong from the weak without a long trial per iod and then failure for the worthless fellow Thousands of young men and young women left the colleges the early part of this month not at all certain of their future courses in life. If many of them wait for the soft-collared job, they are likely to bo waiting next year this time. The opportunity to step into a position with a large salary attached has virtually dis appeared But there is still opportunity for the young people. Never before have there been more numer ous and complex problems to be solved than there are today The generation just ahead of the young people graduating this year will not and cannot solve the problem. This year's grad uate and the graduate next year and the next next will have to find a solution to the problems that have engulfed this country and upset the equilibrum of the world. The solution will not lie lound 111 the legisla tion halls in Kaleigh or in Washington, and it is safe to say that the man behind the desk in Wall Street will have little part m restoring peace, prosperity and happiness to this nation and the world, as a whole It is virtually agreed that the South holds the kev to the solution of these problems, and certainly the young grad uate can make no mistake when he cast* his lot with the South and steers clear of those insti tutions of high finance. The young graduate must get his feet on the ground, mingle with the masses who constitute the background of this nation and other nations of the world. We have an unbalanced society with too many at the top drawing too much and doing too little. It is time fo^ the graduates to apply their learning to the problems that have exist ed at the bottom strata of society for years, the same problems that have been ignored for The ff ay of limine** Recently a customer in a small town bought a new machine, offering his old one in lieu of the down nayment. Once the now machine was placed in operation, the old one was rolled aside supposedly for shipment back to the big manu facturer's factory. But startling instructions were received, instructing the customer that the old machine could be bought for $1,500 cash in the event no sale could be effected at that price, the machine was to be knocked to pieces with a sledge hammer and sold to the junk man for $4.50 The initial cost of the old machine was right at $6,000, and the trade-in value was placed at $1,150. The old machine is moving to the junk pile, the costly part having been broken into a hundred pieces Several years ago, the government paid the farmers to plow up every third row of cotton. Big business condemned the policy, sneered at the administration and pointed out the alleged foolishness surrounding such a policy. Now big business comes along and wilfully duplicates that policy. All of which leads one to believe that the government is not so foolish after all. Cotton (tr Silk Transcript Messenger. Women are apparently going to have a chance to learn what men able and willing to spend money liberally have known for generations, that the right sort of cotton hose beat silk a lot. But the intention is that the new types of cotton stockings being developed won't be more expensive than silk, will be fully as attractive, will be more satisfactory to wear. (Men's lisle socks, the finest kind, are of cotton and sell for more than silk ones). The cotton stocking was developed partly as a benefit to consumers, who have learned that silk hose don't last long. It was developed partly to help increase the market for cotton. But already even when the new cotton stock ing is just emerging from the development stage to one of commercial production, a new rival appears for both silk and cotton. This is a stocking made of a synthetic product?coal and water and air are the raw materials?and ap pearance is supposed to be just as nifty as and wear many times the average of women's silk hose. An economist makes the statement, "there are eight million single persons in this country who are too poor To be married." A "fact hardly to be wondered at when we read that the ward robe of an average June bride costs about $208.
