Your Productire Years Lis Just Ahead It is then you must insure against the non-productive days. protagonists are fighting for lower and lower budgetry outlays for armament and the, disarmament forces are militantly working towards their goal. Still the lamentable thing in this business of outlawing and abolishing war between nations is that we are willing to make an overt concession but harbor a covert feeling that war is necessary.

Hence we lay plans for it in devious ways, even at the same time scrapping sixty battleships. Only a few days ago the announcement was made that Senator Borah endorsed the plan of some league to abolish war. What of his endorse However, the importance of this school of centuries old in existence though "-a new-born babe in these Tar Heel, is that young people may deduce that they have no "souls" for ministers to save. Indeed, to the contrary, each has a very human" self which only he or she can save. It is the epitome of the modern craving tot self-expression and self-dependence.

What concrete form will this philosophy take? The writer hopes that it will make less "faithful" wives, less sentimental mothers. If brides take with them into matrimony a self-consciousness which refuses to be wed, they will build a shrine higher than the conventional hearthstone. It should mean that they no longer live as legalized courtesans with men who pay them less than prostitutes' wages. It should mean a much needed revolution in STRESS COMFORT ATHOLIDAYGAIflE Elaborate Arrangements to Handle Crowd at Dedication of Stadiinn Thanksgiving. Comfort for the spectators -Such is to be the watchword of the committee in charge of arrangements for the Carolina-Virginia game here Thanksgiving when the Kenan Memorial Stadium recently completed at a cost of $300,000 and with a seating capacity of 24,000, is to be formally dedicated.

The big athletic forum will get a sort of house-warming today when Carolina and Davidson will play their annual game here, but the formal opening and dedication exercises will be reserved for the big Turkey Day classic.

Come, Mr. Reviewer, just what did the Kalif do when he forgot himself Seeing as how the Governors of North Caluia and Virginia are to sit side by side and watch the Tar Heels and Cavaliers play, we wonder just what the Governor of North Carolina wiU sdy to the Governor of Virginia? Somehow, we had a notion that everything was mighty quiet around here this fall! Now we know it, because the favorite tri-weekly states, "Collegians Are More Quiet Now So Cops Claim."

Senator to state again that Al is "unavailable." PROGRESS OR A DELUSION? Yesterday marked the 9th anniversary of the cessation of armed hostilities among the leading powers of the world.

Nine years ago the whole world was delirious with joy over the ending of the great war. It was a "war to end wars Today we realize that in a sense the purpose, certainly the idealistic purpose, of the great struggle may have been all' in vain.

The tripartite naval conference at Geneva this -summer ended in a deadlock, an admitted failure. None of the European nations are reducing its expenditures for armament. Each nation distrusts and fears the motives of the other. Perhaps the situation is not so ominious as it appears. There are peace prizes offered, peace commission, anti-war organizations and those who strive to make the world a place of everlasting peace.

ABERNATHY RANTS (D. D.C.) The Honorable Charles Laban Ab-ernathy is an insufferable Armistice Day speaker. The congressman from the third district, spouting red-white-and-blue sentimentality, might go well with his constituents in New Bern. But in Chapel Hill, supposedly an educational center, he sounds like a mounte bank. There might be crafty method in madness before some people; but here it is out of place.

Hospitality is violated when a host turns upon his guest. Such is not the case, in this instance. The TAR Heel did not invite Mr. Abernathy; its opinions on his speech are the humble reflections of a student observer. But you shall be the judge.

When a man elected and paid to legislate for the commonwealth of North Caro lina gushes about the unselfish entrance of America into the World War to make the world safe for democracywhat do you think? When he alleges that a very com plex foreign hostility toward the United States is explainable in terms of debt evasions, what is your reaction? He eulogized the "many wounded and bleeding and scarred hearts" wounded, bled, and scarred by our altruistic entrance into the World War. God forbid that this countrv ever be so" foolish as to send to death a single soldier for the sentimental reasons lauded by Mr. Abernathy. At one point he said melodramat ically that Wilson "went out of office and died, a victim" of this and that. In the first place, it was only natural for even Mr.

Wilson to die. In the second place, he was nobody's victim, but only a defeated statesman. If the former president were alive today, he would despise effusions of this type. Ah, the American Legibn. The Con gressman says they actually what they fancy themselves to be, Messiahs descended.

When it comes to speech es, his legionnaires are 100 American; in conduct they are too often about 80 alcohol. it's too much for one little stu dent; it makes him write an editorial which appears smart-alecky. We beg forgiveness. But one genuine truth we think re mains Armistice Day or no Armistice Day, the Honorable Charles Laban Abernathy should speak under a circus tent and not at a university. SELFISHNESS: A DOCTRINE OF SALVATION (D.D.C.) Cowper Powys, English au hor, recently urged students of N.

C. C. W. to develop a legitimate selfishness rather than sentimental ideas of altruistic service. This evangelist of the ego has come none too soon.

We of today are confronted with a maze of distractions devised for our amusement. Chief among these instruments of recreation are jazz, automobiles, college educations, theatres, motion pictures, etc. All take the young man or woman away from his or her genuine self. It is, then, a propitious time for a holy-roller of selfishness. A tattered anecdote often related to inspire young people tells of an individual who always put himself in the third place, giving to God and felloV-man first and second place respectively.

That story has its value as a fanciful illustration, but its hero was an idiot. For there can be nothing in life for the man who makes nothing aw. mMii of himself first of all. It were bet ter for us to create a man before we speculate on a God or a society. But it is especially significant that future mothers in this state are being taught a doctrine of ego-centricism.

They are told that it is a noble thing to be conscious of the value of one's self above, all things. Self -culture should come first.1 Service will naturally follow growth of personality. Or to appease believers in mysticism, we may interpret addresses like Powys' as a plea for the development of delicate and imaginative "souls." marriage; for women who feel that they have a self will be loath to slump into the role of mere wife. They may seek their intrigues just as wild young men do. They should.

And the mothers. In spite of think ers like Ibsen, Shaw, and even Sher wood Anderson, many women absurd ly consider child-bearing a sure ticket to domestic security and heaven itself. Obviously it is their natural function not their noble martyrdom. Maudlin poets ana grasping nusDanus seem largely responsible for the idea that woman's glory is to display "domestic loyalty to the end," unselfish mother's love, and other downright aberrations. To the contrary, slavery to child- bearing "or husband-coddling is an idi Otic sacrifice, nothing else.

Now, if girls are made to see that 'they have a self to cultivate, will they con tent to harness that self with ill-reasoned moralities, or will they throw off such yokes as chastity-for-girls, babiesf or-wives There is too much false chastity and there are far too many babies. Let us have cultivation of self. OPEN FORUM CRITIC ATTACKED Editor of Tar Heel: If one may judge by articles ap pearing in recent issues of the Tar Heel, we have an embryo Mencken in our midst--our most esteemed literary and art critic, or whatever he pleases to style himself. Our would-be icono ciast, nowever, seems to be just a trifle crude in his method of attack, He must have heard somewhere the old fallacy that it is easier to write disparagingly of an article, book, or play, than otherwise, and feeling him self in sore need of an easy method of attaining fame, has adopted Mr Mencken's plan. Or perhaps he has selected as his model the reviewer of two years ago, Mr.

Fowler, who was quite successful in this sort of writ ing. I might say in passing that bur learned reviewer lacks not only the delicacy of touch which made Mr. Fowler's articles enjoyable, but also the power of discrimination which made them just. From the first issue of the Tar Heel to date our esteemed critic has found nothing to praise and a great deabto blame. In discussing the Magazine, he even went so far as to point out minute grammatical errors; and yet the Tar Heel, for' all its undoubted excellence, prints such a sentence as this: upon a cow, standing in the middle of the road placidly obvious to approaching vehicles as she contentedly munched her cud." What though theKdlif of Kavak wasn't good? Needfit be broadcasted to the four corners of the earth by the publishing of abuse and revilement? Our esteemed critic must realize that the paper isn't read by the student body alone, and should use a little more discretion in his vituperation.

Of' course we know that youngsters are nearly always prone to be radical in their views; they seem to think that by adopting such an attitude they are asserting their manhood and being grown-up, but it seems that some kind editor would try to tone down the fiery spirit of our boy hero. Do not think from this that I am opposed to the printing of adverse criticism. It should and must, be printed, but I am inclined to think it could be done to more advantage if done with a little more discrimina tion. In' other words, what I would suggest is that an element of justice is, essential 'in a review. I see no reason why an immature school-boy should be permitted to heap terms of opprobrium upon an honest effort for the mere pleasure of showing that he can do it especially if -he can't.

By way of conclusion I might add that I think our esteemed critic shows promise and that his faults are the faults pf youth and inexperience. I think that he will overcome these as he grows older and acquires the knack of expressing himself without having to resort to them. Perhaps when that The Garbliha plenty of parking space and plenty of guides to point it out, and hundreds of ushers to conduct spectators to their seats. "No pains are being spared to in sure comfort and order. There is no need of anyone staying away for fear of being too crowded," a spokesman for the committee on arrangements said recently.

"There are plenty of seats on hand and everyone of the 24,000 will be provided an excellent view of the game, but applications for "tickets should be made as early as possible," he cautioned. "Seats are being as signed in the order of receipt of ap plications, and -tickets will begin to go out on November CHEMISTRY STUDENTS AT WATER WORKS MEET Twelve students from the chemica engineering and industrial chemical classes here attended in Durham on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday meetings of the North Carolina sec tion of the American Water Works association.
