The Academic procession used
this year for the first time was
very impressive. The music thru
out the commencement was very
beautiful.
Ur. Durant delivered a truly
great address on the subject “Is
Progress Real?” He reviewed the
stages of progress throughout the
ages, named the achievements of
mankind that have never been lost,
and that show man’s steady climb
upward. He enumerated ten of
these: Speech, fire, conquest of
animals, agriculture, social organi
zation, morality, science, writing
or printing, and education. He said
that without education all that
mankind has achieved would be
lost, and impressed upon the
graduates the tremendous respon
sibility that rested upon them in
transmitting the heritage of the
race.
“Fearless Individualism” was the
theme of the baccalaureate sermon
Sunday morning, June 4, which
was preached by Dr. Charles F.
Myers, pastor of the First Presby
terian Church, Greensboro. His
text was John 21:21 “What is that
to thee? Follow Me.” He gave as
the three stages we pasa through
in becoming real individuals: the
assertion of ourselves, the becom
ing sick of ourselves, and the for
getting of ourselves. He gave as
the three needs of every person
before he can become a real indivi
dual, faith in God, power and par
don. His sermon waa rich in apt
illustrations.

the present situation in education,
uttered warnings if education is
neglected, and predicted the coming
of a glorious balanced civilization
if all work together for the good
of all. He told them ways in which
they could be of service to the

amounts allotted by the State for
the upkeep of the roads and edu

“Educate the children and if the
roads are torn up they will build
them back; fail to educate the
children and build roads and the
generation we fail to educate will
tear them to pieces.”

USING NEWSPAPERS
How to reach a large number of
customers or prospective custo
mers most economically and effec
tively is a problem which still
worries a great many business
men. But it was really solved long
ago, and the answer is this: Print
your message in the newspapers.
Recently a Detroit electric com
pany which serves 500,000 custom
ers in nearly 200 cities and smaller
communities wanted to send them
a series of letters. After consider
ing the various methods of distri
buting these messages, it was de
cided to use local newspapers ex
clusively. The first letter sent out,
signed by the president of the
company, began as follows:
“We have a lot of things to tell
you which are of interest because
you are our customers. We might
get your attention by circulars de
livered at your door, or by radio
broadcast. But we think the best
way to reach you is by successive
letters in the newspapers, of which
this is the first."
In certain special cases the use'
of circulars or the radio may be
fairly effective, but for definite
results economically obtained no
advertising medium ever devised
even approaches the family news
paper.
