How ten do we find ourselves dumb and thoughtless when in the presence of those who are intellect ually superior to us. We are afraid to speak a thought of our own should we chance to have one, for fear that it will not meet with the approval l>f the one to whom we speak. We ai*e too timid to look people in the eye and think whether or not we should approve of what they say. If one would only think we would likely produce a better idea than they. Do we not oftentimes show by our actions that, as mere human beings we believe ourselves to be inferior to some other human being ? This timidity or self-con sciousness has cost many persons po sitions of honor and trust and has lost to the world an immeasurable host of people who might have con tributed much lo it s progress. All of this is certainly unnecessa ry. Why should we not believe our selves to possess as great possibil ities as any other person ? Why should one say, "I wish I could be as great as that man?" 'ihe fact is, that if we are to be the force in .he world that we ought to be, we must believe that we can be as great as any other person in the world, and work towards that end instead of enjoying the position and ability of others. Then why not brace up, look the world in the eye, express our own thoughts as they come to us ? 'ihe world has ever admired those who always express their true con victions. The practice of self-con fidence in the smallest tasks or dis cussions wh.ch may arise, will soon reveal hidden forces and unseen pos sibilities, and instead of being sec ond or third string men and women, we will find that the world is calling us to leadership in its higher institu tions and in its more important woi'k.

There were doubtless others whom we failed to see in the confu sion of widely scattered departmental meetings. Mr. and Mrs Paul Nunn, 'l4 were on the campus for the Students' Re cital Wednesday evening. Wm. G. Lindsay 'OS, Madson, N. C , spent Thanksgiving at the college Anna Henley, David White, Kath erine Campbell, and R. L. Casey, all of the class of 1920, visited friends at the College Thanksgiving. COMMUNITY SINGING A community singing was held at Memorial Hall- on Thanksgiving afternoon at three o'clock. An un usual number of people were present and much interest was manifest. A greater number of the college stu dents remained on the campus during Thanksgiving holiday this year than ever before. For this reason more students took part in singing the old songs, the folk songs and the college songs. The community peo ple were there ready to participate in singing with the college students and through the leadership of Pro fessor James W. White and Miss Byrd a very profitable hour was spent in singing, and enjoying the old songs dear to every one. THE GUILFORDIAN J. M. HENDRIX & CO. THE HOME OF HOOD SHOES Greenrboro, N. C.
