SATISFIED Man IS
NO EARTHLY GOOD
PROFESSOR SMITH, OF UNIVER-
STTY, TELLS STUDENTS TO
CONTINUE STRIVING.

Professor Charles Alphonso Smith.
of the University OF Virginia, spoke
to the students and faculty of John
Marshall high school yesterday
morning in the school auditorium.
Professor Smith said "men are di-
vided into two classes, the dissatis-
fed and the unsAtlsfied.. The dissatis-
fed man is the one who lacks an
ideal. and has nothing to strive for
while the unsatisfied man is the one
who has an ideal, and is also striv-
ing and ambitious to catch up with
it, but the harder he tries the more
difficult his tasks become. and his
ideal continues to keep ahead Of
him.
Those men who have caught up
with their ideal are the ones who are
not wanted on this earth. 1t is the
man who has not attained his ideal
who is needed.
Personal perfection is not the
greatest thing in the world. and the
thing that is greatest Is the art of
helping others
Mr.. Smith told about Shakespeare
when he had completed Hamlet.
shakespeare had worked hard to
complete this masterpiece. and he
worked for 1t as his ideal, but when
he completed 1t his mind was so full
Of still greater ideas that he con-
tinued to enlarge his ideas and strive
for his ideal"
Professor Smith was entertained
by the school orchestra and chorus.
and after his address he visited the
higher classes OF the school and
shown the various departments.
He spoke last night to large au-
dience in the John Marshall audi
torium, and will speak this afternoon
and night The public Is invited to
attend the lectures.
