however, that the tabulation of the
winners in contests held during re-
cent years shows the winners to have
been persons engaged in the ordinary,
everyday walk of life. The all-import-
ant point in the required essays is
that the opinion, criticism, or senti-
ment comes from the heart and not
from gifted pen. The sincerity of
the es3ay is vastly more vital than
any literary style. The contestant who
writes indifferently but has an origi-

OLD AGE INSURANCE The
old age insurance program will be
remodeled by the incoming Con
gress. Some Of the changes to be
affected are: to start payments IL

be started in larger amounts, and
farm workers and self employed
to be included under the plan.
WAGNER Minor changes
will probably be brought about IN
the Wagner Act when Congress 1e-
convenes. One Of the changes will
be the clearing up of language
that is now uncomprehensible. It
will be made to define more clearly
the responsibility of employers.

great need for the critical apprais-

elements which seem to receive the
greatest emphasis from the stand

seems especially important in this
