remark is quite often made by writ

signing his real name is not manly,
or it is not AmeTican-ike, or is
ashamed of himself. It is, therefore,
my candid opinion that it is because
we are not free. Should, for in

by Marshall Field & Co., write a pro-

starvation for himself and family. A

Americanized by the boycott route
for signing his own name.

There are also learned people US

write just because they are not anx-

do not want to give the impression
that they are selfish or want to be
known for their knowledge. They do
not want to be accused of seeking
for self-aggrandizement. A physi-

does not permit a member to write

by so doing, to adverties himself,
