The critical atilt,He of the senior
men and women toward their own
group is not without justification.
Only a minority can claim to any de
gree of self-cultivation after their
four years’ exposure to the higher
principles of learning. Os necessity
the amount of ground to ibe covered
in those years makes it impossible
for any except the most scholarly to
acquire a first-class education. Most
professors admit that a college edu
cation can do little more than awak
en a desire for further knowledge, a
desire to be satisfield in succeeding
years.
Faculty More Optimistic
Faculty members, themselves, when
they write of the college student, or
discuss him, are more optimistic con
cerning his intelligence and educa
tion than i s tne student, one finds.
The representative collegian today
places as much value on extra-cur.
ricular activities aij on classroom
work. Among those interviewed were
the editors of the campus publications
at all four schools, heads of student
government organizations, members
of whom looked upon their outside
interests as an important part of
their education.
Judging by those who comprised
this group, their combination of
campus and classroom activities had
made them the more alert, poised
and self-sufficient.
A “Flop Conference”
One co-ed at Cornell, active in stu
dent government there, when discuss
ing a recent student conference with
Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt, gave a
significant summary of the session
in these words:
“Someone asked (Mrs. Roosevelt
how to go about a political career.
She tolcT us that politics was not a
career and that election to office was
the reward of merit. The whole con
ference was along the line and was
a complete flop.”
In considering the practical value
of college or university degree, the
nature of the school itself is an im
portant factor. iSokne ( institutions
place greater emphasis on cultural
values while others stress the voca
tional content of the curriculum.
An interesting sidelight on the
varied aim s of different schools came
from an official at the University of
Pittsburgh who, while reviewing the
achievements of the institution, men
tioned with pride the fact that acer.
tain endowment for research had
made possible the fabrication of a
more adible skin for wieners.

Heads of State
Institutions to
Meet Tomorrow
In the Sir tVniter Hotel.
DnllT Diaonteh Korean.
BY .1. C. BASKERVILL,
Raleigh, June 25—A meetnig of all
the superintendents of the various
state correctional institutions and of
the Caswell Training School for feeble
minded children, will be held in the
office of R. Eugene Brown, director
of institutions for the State Depart
ment of Public Welfare, Wednesday
morning at 10:30 o’clock, he announc
ed today.
This will be the second regular
quarterly meeting of the heads of
these institutions at which problems
relating to delinquency and methods
of dealing with problem children are
discussed. At this meeting tomor
row, Commissioner of Paroles Edwin
M. Gill is expected to outline the new
parole law, especially as it applies to
the paroling of boys and girls in State
correctional institutions. Mrs. W. T.
Bost, commissioner of public welfare,
is also expected to be present at the
conference.
The superintendents of the follow
ing institutions are exxpected to at
tend: The Farm Colony' for Women,
near Kinston; The Caswell Training
School, Kinston; The Stone.wall Jack
son Training School for Boys, Concord
The Eastern Carolina Training'School
Rocky Mount; The State Industrial
and Training School for Girls. Samar

follow the path of least insistence and
not take any sides at all.
Temporary restraining orders have
been obtained in Warren, Vance,
Franklin and Beaufort counties It is
expected that Judge Williams will
rule on the Franklin county petition
for a permanent injunction either to
day or tomorrow. But in view of the
fact that only ten per cent of the
voters in Wilson and Edgecombe*
counties indicated opposition to tht>
liquor control stores plan and with
indications that sentiment in the
other counties is just as strong for
liquor stores and liquor control as
in these two, many doubt whether the
various judges (before whom injunc
tion petitions are pending will decide
to grant permanent orders and pre
vent the people in these other coun
ties from going to the polls and vot
ing their preferences.
The prevailing opinion in legal and
political circles here is that there are
no legal grounds for granting an in
junction against the holding of these
elections and that »he dry forlces
should wait until after the elections
aie held and then seek to enjoin the
opening of the liquor stores. For the
best legal authorities maintain that
the drys can seek to enjoin the set
ting up of liquor stores, even in coun
ties which have voted for the liquor
control plan, on the grounds that to
do is illegal and an unwarranted ex
penditure of public money. Failing in
this, they could then have recourse to
the Turlington Act and make arrests
of operators of county stores or of
purchases from county stores on the
grounds that the new liquor stores
are illegal and that the Turlington
Act is still in effect.
Reports here from Wilson and
Edgecombe counties are to the effect
that no efforts will be made in them
to prevent the opening of liquor stores
although Cale K. Burgess, generalis
simo of the United Dry Forces, told
this correspondent that he under,
stood that an application for an in
junction would be brought in both
counties at an early date to prevent
the opening of any liquor stores. He
said that if such moves were made,
they would be made Iby local drys
within those counties and not by the
United Dry Forces. y
If the various petitions for perma
nent injunctions are denied and the
counties go ahead and hold liquor
elections and vote to set up county
liquor stores and county liquor eon-

which any counties that want to may
vote to have liquor stores, it is agreed
here But ther ecent General Assem
bly—or the Senate, rather—refused to
pass a Statewide law of this nature
because a few wet-drinking, dry-vot
ing senators feared the political ef
fects of such a law in the Piedmont
and western counties. As a result, tho
present patch.work liquor law was
passed as a last resort.
But if all these 18 counties go wet,
and with wet sentiment conceded to

some think enough pressure may be
brought to bear to bring about a spe
