Happy medium" is an overworked
phrase. but It still means as much as
Il did the day it first was used.
1t can be applied to love, as to many
other things.
Here's the problem: One girl writes
that her friends tell her she should
be more loving with the men; an

treat him cool"
Which is the best way? The me
dunn" way. in my opinion. No man
wants a cold look turned on him ever.
time he tells the girl OF his dream
that her eyes are like the stars. But
any man gets tired of having som
girl constantly tell him how much
she loves him, and demand that he
tell her of his love every two Or three
minutes.
The happy medium" solves the
problem. And Of course the mans
character has to be taken into con-
sideratiOn. Sincere friendship. and
later, sincere love. might be substi-
tuted for happy medium"

What Next For North Carolina?
By MS. FRANCIS ORRAY TICKNOR

hcw they succeeded n gettin- a sur
prising amour. o. boos-larliu'."
After making this resume o. the
WONDERFUL resources OF our Slase AMI
tie accomplishments of our people.
we stop TO ask again, What next for
North Carolina 2" We have come a
long way but there are still heights
for US to ascend and more distant
goals TO reach.
Think what was accomplished in
the days of Perieles when We are told
by historians that the average ability
Of the Athenian race was on the low
est estimate very nearly two grades
higher than ours. Literature and art
were carried TO the utmost perfection
possible to human genius. Art was
represented by the inimitable erea-
iions Of Phidias and Polygnotus, while
the drama was illustrated By the in
comparable tragedies of Aeschylus,
Sophocles, and Euripides. The crea-
tive age Of Greek literature was dur
ing a time of peace, while there was
political liberty and high faith in the
Gods.
1t was during the long and general
ly peaceful reign of Augustus of
Rome, and under his patronage. that
vergil composed the Aeneid, Horace
his famous 0des, Livy wrote his
matchless History and OVID his ex-
quisite Metamorphoses. This was the
golden age of Latin literature.
We have peace and political liber-
ty. We have more than the ancients
for we have faith in true and liv-
ing God. We have passed through
many stages in the advance of eivili-
zation and we have successfully
reached the Commercial Age, but we
have not yet produced the great art
and literature that will carry us into
Golden Age.
No less an authority than Freder-
ick j. Haskins says that among the
highly civilized European nations
there is probably larger per cent of
real adults, as indicated by the much
larger number of persons, who show
mature taste in literature, drama,
art and music and have mature out
look on life. He agrees with Thomas
Edison that we as nation have not
grown up. Edison has the support of
experts when he lays the blame on
education, the fault being either in
the kind that we get or what we fail
to get because it is not given to US.
We still have a number of illiterates
in our State; our schools are too
crowded and are not properly equip
ped. We need gymnasiums that all
our girls and boys may be developd
physically and not just the few take
part in foot ball, base ball, or basket

courased in out Of door athletics. We

We need lunch departments n eS-
cry school that the body may be nOur-
ished vaile the Eind is developing.
We reed manual arts with well equip
ped shors. There is too much Seden-
tary work in our school rooms. We
need gardening and practical agr;cul-
ture, especially in county schools; and
more nature study. II is pitiful how
little the average child knows about
plant and animal life that is. part
OF his environment.
And. oh, the crying need Of libra
r:es, especially school Libraries. A
great many communities have no pub
lie Libraries, but school Libraries are
still more important, because they are
more accessible to children. We teach
children to read and then starve the
sppetites that have been created by
failing to supply them with books.
We sometimes wonder why adults do
not like to read or that many do not
care for really good literature. We
fail to teach the children how to read
and what to read to inspire them with
love for the finest in literature.
When they are grown it is rare for
them to acqu re taste for reading.
II is a habit that must be formed in
earlier years. Fill the mind Of child
with good prose and poetry and these
beautiful thoughts will 'crowd out
evil ones. Every school should have
a library with trained librarian who
could help children to select the prop
er books to read and required reading
should be a part of the school curric-
ulum. even in the lower grades.
When we have more schools and
better schools and libraries in every
school and community, then we may
expect a keener appreciation Of fine
literature and higher class of liter
airy production.
There is a bountiful store Of mate
rial at our command, Indian legends,
folk lore, tales of daring and advent
ure, historic incidents and heroes
from our own history, and romances
without end. The South is the land Of
poetry and romance, its natural beau
ties and environment should furnish
inspiration for literature that would
endure through the ages.
What next for North Carolina
May it be the creative age of art and
literature, a Golden Age whose in
fuences will lift men to higher
plane, where they may worship God,
the Creator of all things good and
beautiful. in honor and glory forever.

GAYETY-"Greenwich Village
Revue"

The Greenwich Village Revue. at the
Gayety this week, offers a variety Of
entertaining features. Tom SIENNA and
Ray Read are a smooth-working pair
Of comedians. and while some OF their
lines bear the earmarks Of Father Time
they put them over with skill that
practically eliminates the mustiness Of
age.
There is plenty Of singing. the num-
bers being divided between Corinne Ar
buckle, Tenny Hilson, Gertrude Weber
and Margaret White. with an amusing
quartet composed of Tom SIENNA, Ray
Read. Johnnie Bohlman and Marty
Ward. Corinne ArbucIsle had to re-
spond to numerous demands for an en-
core in her singing speciality, and Tenny
Hilson made an acceptable prima
donna. Gertrude Weber shows con-
siderable ability as dancer, and Ger
trude White is one Of the fVeliest SOU
brettes seen at the Gayety in weeks.
Her efforts received a big hand last
night.
Marty Ward is an entertainer along
original lines and his work Is a big fac
tor in the shows success. An acrobatic
turn in the second act by the Wheeler
Trio furnishes many thrills. The chorus
is a lively aggregation Of youngsters
and the scenery is above the average.
Altogether this is one Of the best
shows on the Columbian circuit.

There is enough novelty in this

most captious. Many Of the acts

time. By Interpreting the house hlm

acts, charm IL added to the program
and interest maintained throughout.
Alice Brady, who has been starring
In Drifting" on the speaking stage

breath. The story concerns q hard
ened man and woman. who fall In
love through sharing thrilling hard
past. until finally they decide to
marry and to face the troublesome
world together. Miss Brady's sup
porting company is strong and helps
much in bringing out the strong
points of the piece. At least a dozen
curtaln Calls rewarded the star ana
company.
Huston Ray, the young CONCERT
pianist. has a novel act in which he
uses moving pictures and an electric
piano in addition to his own artistic
playing. He was recalled many times.
Charlie Ahearn, the tramp comedian,
and his company, had the laughing
nit OF the evening, IN which a pretty
dancer helps materially. The Misses
Dennis. three pretty girls. sang their
way into the good graces of the au-
d1ence, their harmonixing being ar
tfstic and sweet. Ten Arakis, in a
sensational foot-balancing act, open
the bill.

COATS WHISPERS
BY THE TON. HERALD
CHANGE IN STYLE

Instead of the bees eyebrows" or
the lizards knees" it threatens to be
the goats beard pretty quick.
Whatever all this modern argot may
mean to the rising generation. the
goats beard" IL indicated as an ad-
vance fashion by no less official a
publication than the Panama Canal
Record. which ordinarily speaks of
marlin spikes, cardboard strakes and
ship chandleries. Witness the follow
ing official bulletin:
AN item in the cargo of the steam
ship Felix Taussig. passing through
the canal on August 18 from Pacific
to Atlantic ports Of the' United States
was forty-seven bales of goats boards,
weighing 2s,127 pounds. Another was
twenty-one bales of human hair
stumps, weighing 10,497 pounds"
Since fashion announces the return
of the pompoudor. it necessarily
means the return of the rat" and
that accounts for the human hair
stumps, but the goats boards remain
a mystery. If bale of goats boards
weighs approximately 500 pounds.
how many goats had to be barbered?
Maybe the fashion designers are
plotting false whiskers for one of the
new winter modes.
