In the modern equation the situation is, to some extent, revers ed, however. Some say too much so. Put be that as it may, certain it is that things are more evenly balanced. Personally, I believe social contacts deserve some emphasis, though, of course, they should be relegated to a more or less secondary position in comparison to studies. Some colleges and universities boast of courses in Human Relations. Obviously they are intended to sup plant, or possibly supplement, the necessity for outside contact. But such things cannot be reduced to any given formula, and they only serve to furnish material to that type of author who delights in penned ear- jicature. I should say that such a course, unless one is unusually aware of its dangers, is likely to prove more detrimental than other- The knowledge it attempts to 17a PQn nnli ka nUninnJ U ..

Perhaps this is an exaggera tion, but at any rate the phrase con veys such vivid meaning as to please any booklover. One can picture in imagination the gr;at black, snub nosed hulk of the sperm whale, push ing his way through pellucid sea- waters meeting and cleaving the on coming swells and traveling in an aura of white spray pierced and top ped by his waving, plume-like jet. This reference calls to mind the amazing plasticity of the language. There is nothing quite so intriguing as to sit and peruse the work of some master of English, enthralled at the simplicity and clarity of his expres sion. At present I can remember no more beautiful phrase that "Brief as w;w Snow," from one of Conrad Aiken's Utandarize poems. are pregnant with meaning, and their euphony enhances the original value. In this connection, it may be said that euphony is the one chief quality causing poetry to be more widely quoted than prose. Pyetry and prose careful consideration." According to the brief of the de fendant reserve bank in support of ties of $12.0S9.26 which were not completely verified, was reported to day in the accounts of Ed Hugh Lee, former city tax collector. Mr. Lee is now free under bond on a charge of embezzlement. He admitted a shortage of $30 - er btulge bonds, to be repaid irom tolls, to $1,800,000, and World War veteran.-' loan bonds to $2,500,000. After issuing $2,230,000 in revenue anticipation notes to take care of the 2,236,198.09 deficit July 1, be ginning of the fiscal year, the general fund had a cash balance July 31 of the entire crop, growers will be in much better shape than they antici pated when the markets opened.

Both fill their niche in literature and one may take an individual choice after persual of the propaganda disseminated by the various proponents. In illustration of vivid descrinHnn I would like to quote a sentence from plaintiffs were said to have failed to plead a sufficient demand upon the receiver of the First National bank to bring such a suit. Assuming that the acquisition of the collateral by the federal reserve bank was ultra vires, the defend ant attorneys declared that neither the validity of the transaction or the bank's title could be challenged bv any one except the United States. Even assuming the cau.e of action to avoid a preference, it was said to be barred by the statute of limitations. The defendant reserve bank was said to be not a "preferred creditor," as alleged by the plaintiffs, but merely la 'secured creditor." Peace is in sight in the "truck tax war" this State is having with Geor gia, Kentucky and now South Caro line. This State has arrested and jfir.ed truck drivers from other states and required them to get North Car 'olina licences, in retaliation for sim ilar action in those states. The N. C. Highway Commission has adopted a set of ordinances governing trucks from other states and has sent copies a roar at any time. This race will j to the warring factions.

The State Debt The State of North Carolina, on July 31, had a total state debt amounting to $179,811,371, the big item of which was $109,237,000 for highways.
