FACULTY DINNER IN
HONOR GRADUATES

Fun reigned supreme at the faculty
dinner given at Normal Wednesday
night in honor of the Christmas grad
uating class, comprising 13 charming
young ladies', who, at the request of
President F. A. Cotton, arose in turn
and gave their names, birthplaces, age
and ambitions, interspersing witty re-
marks that led one to believe that
sometimes they did not mean all they
said.
Superintendent John @. Thomas of
the city schools made brief address
and introduced each member of the
city teaching staff.
Miss Schumacher of the Normal
faculty at the piano, and Prof. G. ".
Ridgely with violin accompanied the
singing, which was led by Prof. Tom
0. Bellwood, with zest and finesse.
The dinner, one generous in guam
tity. and delicious in its appeal, was
served by the domestic science class
of Normal.
Following the banquet, Professor
Helms dramatic class gave a short
play in the auditorium. 1t was en-
titled "Pot Boilers" and its laughable
lines and situations were admirably
handled. Professor Ridgely favored
with one Of his fine violin solos, Miss
Schumacher, with a vocal solo, Miss
Virginia Flickinger accompanying,
that was greatly enjoyed, and then
Miss Schumacher and Mr.. Ridgely
played a beautiful piano-violin duet.

WHAT TODAY MEANS

The morning influences tend to
much activity and good humor in
business and private life. In order to
ward off successfully the tendency to
abruptness and worry which comes
with the afternoon aspects, the mind
must be kept well poised and in
control.
A child born today is destined to
enjoy long life. but, owing to a
rather selfish disposition. will not

often call on your imagination to
voice your own superiority, when, as
a matter of fact, you know in your
inner consciousness that it does not
exist.
Your friends, and you have quite a
few, appreciate very much your well
developed characteristics Of honor
and steadfaStness. but among them

your self -gIorification. You appar-

Your home life is not, naturally,
as happy as it should be, as no one
can tolerate for very long a boaster.
At first 1t is amusing. but after a
little while IL becomes nauseating.
II you make serious effort to cure
yourself of this idiosyncrasy you will
soon appreciate how quickly a rea-
sonable amount of modesty, not self
enacement, appeals to others.
Self-confidence need not be assert
