lege professor trying to be unusual
speech.
There is nothing quite so distasteful to the avera;;e per
son as a snob usually because the one so nfl'licled has very
little to warrant his or her snobbishness. And there is lmth
ing (iiile so pleasant in personal contacts as the individual
who has superior intellect and ability sufficient lo justify
snobbishness yet is friendly with everyone, always approitcii-
ablc and considerate "common as an old shoe." The snub'
and his opposite are the products of two distinctly different )
types of temperament and intellectual capacity. And while'
college professors may aid an increase in intellect. Iliey:
haven't yet been able to show nwyked ability in chancing;
temperament.
Failure lo make close observation and analysis, however,!
can sometimes lead us lo brand someone a snob who is not
deserving of the name. Self confidence and self aggression
are often interpreted wrongly, as are IIio:k temperament:; I
that are positive in likes and dislike:;. Positive characters!
may make themselves distasteful to many people are al-j
solutely sure to do so if their contact.-; are at all imni"i nir; !
but their, followers or opponents are not determined by cl:i-...
or creed or collateral as in the case of the obnoxious snob, j
Those who ponder the outward or i r urge to be snob-
hi ah, whether a member of a graduating class or not, cannot, '
after all, help but be impressed with the more attractive and i
mure pleasant .course available in the opposite direction
superiority complex iiiust Ik- a most unhappy companion.
cially if one considers the joy and satisfaction of n wid,
nety of friendships, the stimulating qualities of pleasant eon- j
tact with many points of view, the peaceful relief tlnit cnuics
from tolerant acquaintance with the mediocrity and the ex-j
Iremes of human personalities. I
We cannot be worried about those who are urged to cub !
tivale snobbishness. A few will cultivate it without urging
and will find an isolated existence most unhappy. The re- I
mainder will profit by approaching life without undue nu n- '
tal barriers, and will find it much more inteiesling aad!
worthwhile. I

Why Do You Tell
Children To Save
Their Money?
You know, of course, that it's important lo
save and earn. You naturally want to teach
your children to save but do you tell them why
they should save?
The "rainy day" of a generation ago isn't
as vital a reason as it used to be. You are more
practical, and you must provide practical rca
sons for your children to save.
Give a child a worthwhile, goal toward
which he can work and saving is more easily ac
complished. If a boy's heart's desire is a bicycle
or a girl's is a cedar chest, let them save for that
purpose. If they look forward to a college edu
cation, let them save with that as their goal.
Even though you are able to provide it for
them, they learn to save for a purpose. They
quickly acquire new reasons for saving and
the foundation of a thrifty life is laid.
