J. H. Blunt, social science depart ment head of the high school, In troduced tho speaker. President Inlow spoke about the teaching profession In particular. He advised that a choice of vocation be made Judicially If possible, for the Individual must adapt himself to the requirement cf his vocation. The world does not wait for a person, It moves right along. If you dislike (teaching don't go Into the teaching profession. To be a success you must be Interested In people and understand children. You must enjoy being with children and be willing to treat them patiently. The teaching profession offers sev eral important fields in which an as pirant may specialize. If a person Is going Into the teaching profession he should select a field in which he is1 most interested. The chief measure of ; success In any profession Is how much can we better society; not how much can we make. The reward of the teaching profes sion Is seeing the students you have tuught make a success. Hugh Bunten.

Doctor Petzoldt Addresses Hi School Student Body At a special assembly of the High school student body, Monday after noon, Feb, 5, at 1 :50 o'clock. Dr. Pet zoldt, a Baptist missionary to the Crow Indium, delivered an inspiring address. Dr. Petzoldt was introduced by Dr. F. W. Starring, the new executive sec retary of the state Baptist conven tion In the state of Oregon. Dr. Petzoldt spoke of the Red Man as being the true American, that the Red Man was the original owner of the country that we now so proudly call the United States of America. Told of the' early American colonists and the hospitality that the Indians showed toward them. Emphasized the fact that the Americana are indebted to the Indian for almost everything they have in the way of food and medicines. Dr. Petzoldt then spoke in turn about the humiliating mjustlCs that the Americans have wrought against the Indian: a grand way to pay him off for the hospitality that he showed to our forefathers. He then spoke of four pictures in the White House at Washington they are: 1. Indian friendliness toward the Pilgrims of Plymouth. 2. Pocahantas saves Captain John- Smith's life. 3. Pcnn's bargain with tho Indians. 4. A battle scene in which the White men were killing the Indians An old Indian was shown these pictures,. and this Is what he sMd -Indian feeds White Man Indian saves White Man's life Indian eel.'s White Man land White Man kills Indian. In closing his address Dr. Petzoldt emphasized this fact the most seri ous problem eo:rontlng the Ameri can public today Is the racial prob lem, and that it is the moral obliga tion of the young people of this lan? to Join in the solving of his prob lem. re you looking for work, my man?"
