WE'LL. WHAT HE SAID WAS-BUT NEVER
MIND; YOU CAN READ 1T WHEN HE
REPEATS 1T TO DENNY
Mac: We read with real interest your poem
of few nights ago abouf Sims speech You
did not however, tell us what he really did
say From this end it locks as though he was
following the suggestions Of the governors OF
the oaroilnas J.. BW.
ANOTHER thing that Is bringing deep vria-
kles of worry to our brow is this: When those
beautiful brass name plates are installed in
H14t
they are changed when a relief man takes the
place OF tho regular employe? It woald be
embarrassing to greet q strange conductor with
the morning kiss intended for Conductor Jones'
We feel moved to offer this suggestion to
Aessrs. Denman and Huntoon: Why not have
the name plates made up as lavallieres? Then
the men would run no risk OF losing their
Identity.

D6resafding for the moment the
ethics OF the situation and considering
only the psychology involved, Professor
Patrick observes that swearing offers
physiologicaliy harmless exercise to
emotions which might otherwise be de-
structive. Long before language was
evolved the animals through cries, snarls
and srowls gave expression to their feel
ings and communicated with their fel-
lows. One Of the most primitive forms
OF vocalsation vas the roar Of anger
which was Of use in combat in terrifying
the enemy. It was Of q kind with the
showing Of teeth, the hFistling OF the hair
ana otner defensive measures. When
man Is in frenzy Of anger and action
Is impossible his only relief from the
tension is the modern form OF the snar1
and growl namely ejaculation and vitu-
pofation. Profanity IL CAUSED By "a sit
uafion in which there is . Aigh degree
Of emotion usually Of the sesressive
type accompanied By feeling Of helm
lessness." Action being impoesible. the
strong feeling Of anger or disapproyal
finds ito outlet III whitening laneuaea.
Professor Patrick says that II . man did
not swear, he would do somefhinr
worse. As 1t is, he gets satiafaction
without hurting the other fellow. The
principle 10 similar to the relief Obtained
by women from . good eFy. Swearing IN
