' A free people is one that is offended by a "Keep Out" ' ' Now that hairpins are obsolete how does a woman fix her"watch ? A snake bite serum is to le supplied to New York campers.

I Secretary Hoover says that government cannot cure every ill. That will prove a disappointment to many who think the government should undertake what they do not want to do themselves. : f COUNSEL I'oft GRADUATES. i "One reason why this is a better world than it used to he.is because tho graduates of schools and college are lein spared ponderous counsel from commencement orators. This iis the time of year when boys and girls jump into tin world with a feeling that they aie plunging into a den of horrors, into a realm 'where solemnity displaces smiles and responsibility gives no time for relaxation, i Naturally life is a icsinsible existence and tho wise Commencement counsellor doe;; not ignore this fact, but ;lhere is a more engaging picture to present to the graduate. ;As Edward S. Martin, Inilliant editor of "Life," once told tlp3 graduates of an Eastern college: j "So far as we can judge fiom w.iat we can see of this .world, it was not meant to be more than moderately sol emn. Its decorations, many of Ihcni, are gay. The flowers are joyous. The birds are cheerful. No, young graduates, lo not cultivate solemnity as a virtue. You will get enough ,f it as an incident of living." That's an appropriate kind of message to bring a ;i ini tiate who has been fed up with the terrors that await him 5n tho world, lie will inert thip.-.e terrors much more be comingly if he throws off a sour dough heart and meets Hhem with head up and eyes gleaming. Hreaking the ties of school association, trying to de termine a vocation, weaiieil pet haps by the stress of ex aminations, the average giaduale deserves something bel ter when he is given his diploma than an overdose of verbal insulin. The woild is waiting to be eoii(Ucrcd by the boys and girls coining out, of the schools. That is the grad uate's job. And the job will be much better done if i.ssuyed with a high : piul of radiant joy and cheer than with a spirit soggy with fin red dignity and exaggerated solemnity.
