GREW WHISPERS TO GET JOB
And Secretary of State Hughes Has
Worn the Required Facial Adorn-
ments Ever Since.

Charles e. Hughes, secretary Of
state. gave little indication to his
teachers and classmates at Brown uni
versity that he was to become leader
In the nation, though 1t is true that he
had his bachelor degree before he
was twenty-one. He planned to make
teaching his life work, and he did
devote some years to that occupation.
His first application for job was as
a teacher Of Greek In small Eastern
college. The head of the department
received him kindly. but evidently re-
garded his youthful appearance as
making him an impossibility In that
line.
'Why," said he. you have no more
hair on your face than an egg"
IF beard is necessary l can raise
one," said Hughes, who knew his own
ability in that line, and soon was able
to qualify for the job and got 1t. And,
by the way, he has the same whiskers
yet. He has never worn clean
shaved face since.-COlumbus Dis

All Together

Whom does The Citizen belong TO q?
OF course the managers are response
bic for financing II, and they do the
worrying, but in reality The Citizen,
and any other community paper for
that matter, belongs to the hundreds
who read its pages and express them
selves thru it's columns. Especially
does II belong to the community
whose interests it has most at heart.
IL is the community paper which
takes time to mention the little per-
sonal and family affairs, in which we
are all interested and about which we
like to read. II is the community pa
per that every week goes far away,
carrying the news Of the local COM
munity and speaking TO people far
beyond our own border, telling them
what we are doing, how we are pro-
crossing and giving our distant neigh
bors a chance TO draw their own con-
illusions as to what we are worth.
Now the manager OF a paper can
not make a paper successful alone.
He needs the support Of his conimu-
nifty. He needs the support Of those
citizens who want TO see their COM
munity prosper. The Citizen believes
in open and free expression Of opin-
ion. That is not saying that 1t
agrees with everything that is ex-
pressed thru its columns, but it be-
lieves that the proper way to arrive
at the solution of community diff.
culties is by making It possible for
the people to understand each other,
and the only way to understand each
other is to tell each other what we
think. We believe that every man in
Berea ought to put himself in posi-
ton to understand his fellowmen.
How are we going TO do this? This
is the way: Subscribe for your home

Henry Ford, one Of the marvels Of
the present industrial world, a man
who has done much good and who
stands practically without peer in
the manufacturing world, has en-
gagged in the most unworthy task Of
his entire career by launching a cam
paign against the Jews in the manner
that he has.
God forbid the time that America,
like her mother country, England, at
the beginning Of the modern era,
shall engage in a nationwide Jew
batting.
Last week there appeared in the
leading daily Papers Of the city Of
Louisville n political advertisement
which is a shining example Of what
We call sect batting. A number Of
Irish Catholics were mentioned as the
offsprings Of a political organization
that once controlled the government
Of Louisville, they we're referred to
as the descendants Of the Irish Kings,
and in the advertisement itself there
was a subtle attempt to cleave the
citizenship Of Louisville along Prot
estant and Catholic lines.
When the individuals and groups,
who class themselves as the only
Sind degree Americans in this coun-
try. begin TO take few lessons from
the objects Of their criticism and con-
domination, they themselves will be-
come better American citizens and
better Christians. II the average
American citizen would study the
methods of economy and thrift and
cooperation. practiced by the Jews,
he would have more for which TO
thank the Jews than 10 condemn

Christ much sooner than they will by
catering to political and social fac

II the people in the north and the
people in the south wish to unite in
the settlement Of race and religious
problems. they can do so much east

approaching the question as true
American citizens seeking to arrive
at some point of agreement with all
parties concerned.

What Is more un-American than for

The information comes TO the edi-

between the Protestants and the
Catholics will also make the Khan
