Education Is Wonderful
In Many Different Ways
By Billy Arthur
This Is the season, of the year
when In the morning the chil
dren go off to school and mother
goes back to bed.
Safety slogans axe everywhere.
They should read: 'Watch out
for students, especially those
driving cars.
I went to college. Mother
wanted me to have an AB. Dad
wanted me to get a JOB. He won
—my IQ was FU.
At college X went out for the
Baseball team, the basketball
team and the track team. Every
;ime they wanted a sandwich, |
I went oat.
The favorite story around
Chapel Hill fa my day was about
a University of North Carolina
football player dating a Duke
coed. When the conversation
finally drifted Into nothing, the
gdrl tried to make some by asking,
“How high is the curriculm at
UNO?"
“I don’t know exactly,” the
boy is said to have replied, “but
you can see Duke chapel from
the top of It.”
Toda^ standards are higher.
For instance, the literary hori
zon of the average student Is
bounded on the west by Jimmy
Fldler and on the east by Es
quire.
Room and board Is higher,
much higher than, in 1609 when
Archibald WlaUs advertised In
the Raleigh Star that he would
“take boarding pay for students
In Corn, Bacon or Brandy.”
However, restrictions are less
severe. Wonder how many of to
day’s students would have at
tended Hillsborough Academy in
1818.
The rules Harbade “prophane,
abusive and Indecent language..
lounging In stares, taverns and
public streets_(and the) use
or ardent spirits.” Every student
was “required to pay strict re

FLOOR CARE—How con I pre
vent water spots? Iff water Is
allowed to stand and evaporate
an any waxed floor, it will spot.
Wipe up spilled liquids as quick
ly as possible.
It is necessary to rinse a floor
before polishing? Yes. There Is
gard to the Lord’s day" by at
tending both Sunday a. m. and
p. m. services and by refraining
from “every kind of amusement
as riding, walking, visiting and
the like."
Nevertheless, education is help
ful even to the educator. D. Hiden
Ramsey of the Asheville Citizen
Times tells of the occasion when
Kemp P. Battle had to seek
night’s lodging In a mountain
cabin because of inclement wea
ther. As he approached the
mountaineer to ask for lodging,
Battle presented himself as presi
dent of the University of North
Carolina.
“Tlhats all right. Im just a
plain man,” Ramsey says the
host replied. “And mixing will
learn us 'both.”
Possibly no one over the years
derived as much fun joshing
both students and educators as
did Dean Samuel Mordecai of
Duke University. For instance,
the student:
“How wondrous are the ways
of man!
How much he learns at school!
What wondrous ways he doth
find out
To prove that he’s a fool!
If the himh school turns him
out
With a thimbleful of know
ledge,
He’ll surely be a braying ass
By the time he goes through
college.”
no cleaning preparation made
that does not need to be rinsed
off before you apply liquid wax.
If traces of soap or detergent
remain on the floor, the -polish
will water spot badly and may
also streak and become sticky.
How can I tell whether a pol
ish contains solvent? By the
smell. The buffing type waxes
smell like naphtha ( these waxes
must be polished to make them
shine). A self-polishing finish
has hardly any odor.
How often should floors be
polished? Depends upon amount
of traffic on floors and the kind
of polish used. When the floor
gets dull and dirt begins to stick,
the polish has been worn away
and a new application is indi
cated.
what causes floor polish to he
xane sticky? Insufficient rins
ing, dirt, humidity, often it’s too
heavy a coat of polish or use of
inferior polish.
GUAISSWARE CAKE — Tea
leaves soaked -with vinegar will
remove lime deposits sometimes
found in water bottles or pitch
ers. Pour soaked leaves into the
piece and shake them around
until the deposit disappears.
Rinse milk glasses with cold
waiter soon after use. If they
have stood for some time un
rinsed and have become sticky,
wash with soap and rinse in
lukewarm water with a little
soda added.
As should be done with china,
let glass dishes come to room
temperature before placing ei
ther piping hot or ice cold food
on them.
