Some persons spend half the day
working in front of mirror. Par
ents complain that they have to
take picture of their children once
they get in their teens, to see what
they look like. Really, ] don't
think it is case of over-develop-
ed pride as much as it is mania
for grooming. Good grooming is
necessary, but after all you can
groom just so much, you can't
make yourself over. II a person
keeps himself neat and clean, that
is all that is required, Don't worry

of the good work is being done by
inviting non-Catholic classmates to

have q better opportunity to do
work like that, so stay right with
it. Some people actually would like
to be part of a parish high-school
religion class but they think that
they would be out of place. Many

The Saint Of the Week


When any of your friends tell
you that they have a hard time
trying to figure out much about an
gels, tell them to read the Book
of Tobias in the Old Testament and
get the story of St. Raphael. This
most helpful archangel has his
feastday Saturday. Raphael shows
himself to be a real messenger of
Gods love for both the junior and
senior Tobias. 1t really is a most

A Lot Of Talk
People who have made a study

conversation when he hasn't any
thing else to do marks his true
interest. Around school one talks
about things pertaining to class
work; during football games and
the like, one talks on the topic of
sports; but when you haven't any
thing in particular to keep you
busy. you really get down to the
things you actually like to talk
about. 1t sounds straight. Now as

Little Rociol Tension
Richard Wright is, Of course,
the Negro novelist whose auto
biography, "Black Boy" pub
lished in 1945, caused as much

His character, Cross Damon,
is a Negro, but there is little
racial tension in the story.
The scenes take place in Chi
cago and New York and among
people who judge a Negro by
his individual worth, not by
his pigmentation. And yet, the
author shows, such a person
as Damon would almost have
to be a Negro or some other
"outsider"-some one living in
but not entirely a part of a
society, held off from full fel-
lowship. Cross is a Chicago

are ordinary middle-class per-

James Mcneil Whistler, the

Since he was enormously witty
as we'll as gifted and had a
genius for eccentricity. he had
little trouble.
When Whistler left his ma

Actually he had grown up
mostly in Russia. Except for
three years at West Point and
q short tour Of duty at the
