The Vanishing Vocabulary!
The Greensboro Record.
There was a time when a student took
great pride in the extent of his vocabu
lary and be always exhibited 3 rent care
in the proper choice of words. That
time seems to have disappeared. '
Pass any group of young people now
and we hear such expressions an: “-You
tell ’em.” ‘‘Aain't it the truth,” "I'll tell
the world," “I say Rhe does,” ‘‘Not on
your life,” “Thrilled to a peanut!” and
hundreds of others of equal sense and
dignity.
The catchy slang expressions have
lieeu substituted for the English lan
guage and the day of the vocabulary is
done. It seems that something should
be done, but just what, nobody seems
to know. Psychologists have patiently
awaited a reaction from this kind of ex
pressions but so far no reaction is in
evidence. -
Our language is being compressed into

less of circumstances. It is up to tbe
schools to £siallengc themselves every
time any of this creeps up. Slang is
effective at times but is liable to bevojpe

a lazy man’s expedient, rather, than a
clever man's repartee. &lang offers the
path of least resistance for thought in
the brain and therefore causes strange
apathy in thinking. Minds follow
expression and when slang is used then
the intellect slides around in a well-oiled
groove and sleeps. Don't limit your
vocabulary to a few stock phrases and
then use them until they are dog-eared
from handling!

Kannapolis, April 3—Mrs. Mc-
Kinley recently had shipped from South
Carolina a brood of twenty-five chicks,
fine thoroughbred Rhode Island Redo,,
Mrs. McKinley, however, lias met with
poor success in her experience with
these once chubby chicks. - Although ov
erything'was done to promote their phys
ical welfare and happiness, they appar
ently were not pleased with their new 1
home, since, according to latest reports,
practically nil had left to joi nthe ranks
of others that had “gone west,” and
there are grave apprehensions that the
one or two remaining are preparing to
mtfke the journey at an early date.
Mrs. .1. W. Sloan., who has been very
ill. is now convalescing.
Tuesday .night the Parent-Teacher As
sociation organized a colored schrol Bet
terment League. The league was plan
ned to teach the children gardening, sew
-1 ins, and the care of babies. This or
i ganizntion is not in any way affiliated
1 with the white organization.
Thursday. Friday and Saturday are
clean-up days in Kannapolis. Rubbish
is to be collected and placed in heaps
in the back lots or in front near the
streets. The Boy Scours will clean tip
vacant lots.
Kannapolis is putting forth an effort
to perfect nil organization of Girl Scopts.
Fathers’ night will be observed at the
South School building on Wednesday

The Woman’s f Club of Kannapolis fs
taking a census of tubercular patients
and will furnish each with a sanitary

An interesting event of the past week
was a tnekey party given by the young
indies of the Mary Ella Hall. Headed
by the matron the merry crowdi called
at the Palace of Sweets, where they
were treated by “George” to ice ergaiii
and drinks. From there they proceeded,
to the garage, band house, Y, M, C. A.,

members of the party had a great time.
MR. MeINTYRE PROTESTS
lie Says That Robeson County Will Vote
for McLean for Governor.
Editor cf Monroe Enquirer.
I'note your article in last week’s is
sue of The Enquirer with reference toi
the candidacy of Hon. Angus W. .Mc-
Lean for governor. From your edi
torial I observe that you are not well
acquainted with Mr. McLean. I have
been associated • with him in a business
and professional way for more than 2.1
years, and I feel sure that, if your ideas
with regard to him would be consider
ably changed. Mr. McLean hns been
one of the most constructive forces of
his town and county. His genius for
initiating business plans and carrying
them through to completion has been of
untold benefits to the town and com
munity where he lives, and you arq very
far afield, indeed, when jxVu state, upon
information, that, were it not for county >
pride, he would not. gel a'majority of the,
AWtew in the commuiritr where tts lives.
The peotple of RobCson county are [
very proud of the record of A. W. Me-1
Lean, and they take great pride not]
| only as a county, but individually, in
the fact they have the opportunity to
present to the State, at this particular
time, in Its period of expansion, a man
who, by experience and training, is so
well equipped to steer helf of state.
As. a native of Union county, and
knowing flip people of in.v native county
as I do, I feel that It would not be
amiss, but, on the other hand, entirely!
proper and right for me to acquaint, in
some manner, the people of Union conn-1
Ity with the qualifications of Mr. Mc-
Lean for Governor of North Carolina.-
In my poinion there is no man in the'
State better qualified, as this particular!
time to be its Governor. He is a con- J
servative, I beard-minded, high-visioned
and possessed of high ideals, without be-1
'ng an idealist. He is practical in ail j
of his undertakings and has been emi-'
nently successful in every endeavor!
.which has claimed his attention.
No, Mr. Editor, if you knew Mr. Me-!
I,ean like I do. you would not have J
made the statement yop did in your edi- i
torial, for you may rest assured that
Robeson county will not only stand by
I its favorite son for Governor of North
| Carolina, because of county pride, but
1 because of the fact we feel that the
State would be greatly benefited by <
drafting him for services as Governor of 1
the State at. this tinxe.

VANDERLIP WILL
QUIT ALL BOARDS
Criticizes Wall Street For Attitude
Toward His Clean-up Efforts.
Washington, April S.—Frank* A. Vnn
derlip, retired New York banker, an-'
nounced, last night his intention “of re- I
signing I from every business beard on
which I occupy a seat,” because of the
attitude of many of bis New York busi
ness associates towards the work I am
doing ’in Washington."
This decision was made known when
Mr. Vanderiip made public an exchange 1
of letters with E. P. Swensou, preai-, ■
dent of the Freeport Texas Company, of j
New York, in which his resignation as. <
a member of that company’s board was;
requested and given. Recently he re
-1 signed upon bequest, as a director of
the Continental Can Company, of Syra- ■
cuse, N. Y., because of exceptions which I
a fellow director had "taken to his state-i
meat concerning the sale of President 1
Harding’s newspaper.
