At Chapel April 5ih. Mr. Barclay spoke to the student body and foculty. His topic was “The Difference in Being a Likeable and an Admir able Person.” Mr. Barclay con tinued his speech by liisting the Qualities that go to make up a “likeable” person and these which make up an “admirable” person. He concluded that it is much bet- ter to be admired rather than liked, for a person who is liked only for his likeable qualities will be eventually disliked; however, A person admired for his admir able characteristiofl will be soonei or later liked.

STUDENTS EXPELLED This is not a trend-of-the-times note, but we believe you should keep informed on such matters just the same.
