York, one of the greatest civilian soldiers of the World ar. presented an address entitled. Why I Am For Prohibition , at the Congregational church, Thursday, September 29. Alvin York based his speech on his own experiences and observation be- fore and after the Eighteenth Amendment went into effect. For 8 years he was a drunkard before re- forming into a deeply religious man. As he himself expressed it. ‘l kind of realized I was missing the finer things of life. When you mine the finer things you may as well be a rozorback hog grubbing for acorns in the mountainside. He gave his own county seat, James- town. Tenneasee. as a typical exam- ple of the changes wrought by prohi- bition. In this town of eight hundred, the four corners were occupied by four saloons doing u thriving business. Now they are gone. As a result, w’here drunkards were a common sight, now- on his lecture tours he does not aver- age a drunk man a week. He also slated that under prohibition, condi- tions are much more advantageous for the young people of America. The people of Tennessee have found the standards of living so much improved by prohibition that York predicted that his state would vote for the con- tinuance of the Eighteenth Amend- ment. After the prohibition lecture. Ser- geant York related briefly his famous exploit in the Battle of Argonne At 6:10 on the morning of October 7. 1918, two hundred men went over the top toward the enemy. Of these, all but 17 were mowed down by a machine gun battalion. The machine guns must be taken and York was chosen to lead the attack They chaf- ed two German stretcher bearers back behind the lines, and came upon the battalion headquarter's staff break- fasting and captured It. York’s men were now in a bad posi- tion. behind the enemies' lines. The enemy reversed their fire and killed Sawyer Oil Co.

XT ClJ APELLE Superintendent Lectures Seniors on Psychology Explains Beliefs Concerning Astrolo- gy, Demonology and Phrenology E. H. Chapelle. superintendent of Charlotte schools, during the past week, has been giving a series of lec- tures to the senior class on adolescent problems. Professor Chapelle discussed wlthi ?he seniors this week questions con- cerning the psychological side of the students life Such problems as why a person does this or why he does that, and his certain reactions to his mental urges. “One does not act as he does. said Mr. Chapelle. because of the fact that he is possessed of a devil, man’s prim- itive belief called demonology: or be- cause he was born under a certain star, astrology: or because of a cer- | tain bump on his head, the study of which is called phrenology, or because of the fact that his character may be read in his face from the study of physiognomy: but his actions are j prompted by his nervous system. There are also the palmistry, hand- writing. and the tea-leaf methods by which certain individuals believe that their characters may be manifested. “The nervous system ', as he con- tinued. is composed of tiny threads, adjoining the brain. These nerves are not solid, hut intermesh at synopses. The transfer from the nerve ends is made through neurons which make up the nerves. Impressions are con- stantly being made from the outside world, and the nerves respond. When an Impression is received, we make a reaction to it through either our muscles or our glands and our re- sponses are from the influence of heredity or environment. Our nvetn- tal traits or urges are seemingly in- born or universal. We have many of these urges, some of which are The urge to per- petuate the Individual and the race: the urge for food and shelter; the urge for gregarousness. or the de- sire to be with a crowd: and the urge for power, self esteem, leadership, and position. Thus it is our environmental con- ditions and hereditary impulse, which prompts us to react and respond to our mental urges.
