ANNUAL QUEHr:
«T SEEMS that my item of
second guessing in the
last issue on the outcome
of the Annual Queen election hit a discord. I have
been informed by a well
meaning group in no uncertain terms that I was
wrong; that it was the
untruth. I will accept the
statement that I made a
poor guess, but I cannot
subscribe to the implication that I had deliberately concocted a lie. It
was an honest guess made
wi t h n o m a 1 i c e - - e i t h e r
forethought or afterthought.
It seems further that
the item made quite a few
people, including several
contestants,very unhappy—
if not deeply hurt, I can
assure all concerned that
no such intention was meant,
although a conclusion to
that effect appears to have
been drawn in some quar-

Is quite familiar to moot
of us. It is our susceptibility to .a condition of

Human mind is a com-

can be too flexible or too
unbending-. It can also
make a person "leap without looking."
If the individual gives
it some thought, he realizes tliat his condition
of mind isn't necessarily
always fitting to the occasion or the event at.hand,-.
He could be just as wrong

cases others are not aware
of it.
In addition, he can err
in action as he errs in
thinking, and when both
occur at the same time--it
means "not so good." This
doesn't,- however, preclude
that his actions are always
with malice or with lack
of good intentions.
