Violet Powell Martha Godwin and Zeola Benton j PRIDE We hear a great deal about pride, as a fault of flaw in character, but little o f pride as a sustaining vir tue. a courageous pride which stands above circumstances and defeat. It is true that pride, in one sense of the word, “ goeth before a fall,” but did you ever consider the pride also enables one to get up again—gives one the strength to "take it with his chin up,” if we may speak in the vernacular. Perhaps, as in so many cases, there is confusion in the meaning of the word pride. Pride shouldn't mean haughtiness or imply an atti tude of disdain. Isn't it really a quality which, on the contrary. Im plies power and self respect? With pride, one need not be afraid to "stoop,” in fact, he cannot. Rather than being “ too proud to stoop” he is cbove ever being made inferior, no matter what he may be forced to do. As long as one’s pride remains, as long as his motives and conduct enable him to keep this most pre cious ingredient of character noth ing whatever can lower his esteem in his own mind. Who was it said "Oe must always live with himself?” This person must have known of the power of pride, either through having lost It, or through having kept it intact. One may never be wholly “sufficient unto himself," but how tragic not to have the respect even of that one most important force we call “self.” Each of us may have his own standards of thought and conduct. Shakespeare has said “ there is nothing good or bad, but thinking makes it so." We cannot conform always to the many and varied codes around us. But we can con form to our own standards, and by holding them inviolate, keep our pride. —N. H. S — 250 wors, willl be judged on origin ality of ideas, construction, and grammatical accuracy.
