W 'hat the next four years will bring to all of
us as citizens of these United States is as much
of a question as it always has been when a
president takes office. Perhaps, with the
world in such a restless condition, the next
term of office for President Truman will
oiler more problems than usually fall to the
lot of an incoming president.
Rut there is one thing that we all can unite
in doing and that is to try and work har
moniously for the good of the country at
large . . . and ourselves as citizens. There
are hound to be differences of opinions as to
methods of procedure in many cases, but
good common sense can be brought into use
for the straightening out of these problems.

determination to make our United States a

MIRROR OF YOUR MIND
By LAWRENCE GOULD
Consulting Psychologist
need of security is as adults, the
more likely we are to cling to our
"blood kin" and feci ill at ease
with "strangers". A mature and
self-reliant person, on the other
hand, will feel closest to the peo
ple with whom he has most in
common, whether they are rela
tives or not.
Mrs. David Hyatt: " The Foun
tain Head.' b Ay n Hand. It is an
old book but I didn't read it until

Is a sense of humor a mark of intelligence?
Answer: Not in itself. There
have been outstanding geniuses
who had very little sense of the
ridiculous and were quite incapa
ble ot laughing at themselves,
however childishly they behaved.
But a sense of humor usually in
dicates emotional maturity be
cause it keeps you from childish
exaggeration of your own impor
tance and makes you less apt to
get "all steamed up" over trifles.
And there's nothing more charac
teristic of a person who has never
grown up than to feel his momen
tary joys and sorrows matter des
perately to him and to others.
Is "blood thicker than water"?
Answer: Not because of any au
tomatic or instinctive feeling. We
like or dislike our relatives, as we
do anyone el.e, on the basis of
the way they treat us. But because
most of us felt more secure with
our families as children than we
have since, and the stronger our

Is it normal for a co-ed to be
homesick?
Answer: Not for long, at any
rate, writes Annalies A. Rose of
Smith College in the Journal of
Social Psychology. On the basis
of a study of 66 women freshmen
in their first five weeks at college,
Dr. Rose concludes that "well ad
justed" girls, particularly those
who have no trouble making con
tacts with the opposite sex, are
not homesick at all. Those who
have one attack of homesickness
after another are emotionally
weak and childish, while the per
sonalities of girls who are home
sick only once show comparative
ly "minor deviations" from the
normal.
