Students Act As War Stamp And Bond Salesman In School Again this, year, Eaton Stu- dents have atrlven to aid, our government by acting as agents in our hells morning and noon, and during the evenlng at basketball games to' sell war bonds and stamps. The response on the part of students as purchasers has been acceptable, but we need a greater volume of buyers. llth each War Bond Drive the school is assuming greater leadership in taking the war bond message to the community. students have proved themselves to be topfllght publlclty agents and salesmen. Their part in the Sixth lar Loan Drive will undoubtedly be more thorough and more extensive than ever before. This must be the case lf the Sixth War Ioan Drive ls to be completed successfully. for it will be one of the most dlfflcult undertakings of the entire war effort. Many people encouraged by military victories ln Europe The- and ln the Pacific are thinking that 'the war is almost over, forgetting that our task of actu- ally completlng this present war-ending all conflict, bringing our fellows and girls back toy their respective homes, and the job for all of us--that of return- The October commlttee in Urs. ing to a normal, peaceful, and civilized existence is still ahead of us.

The 'character and personality of a person can very well be judged by his use of words. The loud boisterous use of words us- Bally PHP!! ,opp as ill-mannered and lnconsiderate of others. Such persons are usually avoided and have few friends. ' A quiet, poised, and concise use of words reveals intelligence soundness of character, and a balanced emo- tional llfe. Such people are con- genial, have a lot of friends, and make leaders. People who use words in excess are commonly call ed ngossipsu and need no intro- ductlon. Buch people usually have little. human understanding are bigoted, and are usually try- ing to cover up something in their own lives. They are the trouble makers in this world. Fortunate, indeed, is the person who 1s smart enough to realize that if he can't speak well of others,1t is wiser to never speak at all. e Then there are those people who. have developed the .habit of using sweet sounding or uflowery' words. They are the flatterers and one should listen to them with caution for generally there is an ax to grind. Pollticahs and high powered salesman are typical of this lot. The use of profane words reveal shallowness .of character, lack of considera- tion, the absence of respect, and emotional instability. g Profane people are usua1ly'unhappy persons whofincit difficult to get along with the members of their own family and their neighbors. ' Thus, the use of' words does reveal what you really are. There- fore, one should use words care- fully and with good Judgement. An ill spoken word often leads to ga lifetime of misunderstanding. Im- prove your personality by a con- scious effort to discipline your use of words. Be wise in the Judgement of other people by ob- serving carefully what they say and how they say it.
