AGNES SCOTT SENIORS NEAP BRUCE PAYNE President of Peabody College Is Principal Speaker At De- I cater Graduation Exercises | DECATUR, May 28.—Addressing' the senior class of Agnes Scott Col • lege yesterday, Dr. Bruce Payne, president of George Peabody Col-1 . f W’_ Os Tenn'., deemred that “sOjhbtMng; more than trained intelligence, some thing more |han character”, is es sential to the present needs of so ciety. “All around uh,” Prof. Payre said, “we see men and. women with highly trained, -ipincjs and of th? most devout character who fail in life. That one njay be trained in mind and in heart is not an assur ance within itself , that he will suc ceed in business, that he will sf.c aee’d in-his profession* that lie become a great moral, intellectual, social and economic leader.” That which is needed in addition to the attributes of intelligence and character, the* speaker asserted, is personality. Defining personality as “the outer maifestation of cha racter and intellegence,” he told the young women that personality was not an accretion. “It is not what we call style in the low sense,” he add ed, “but in the exalted meaning’ of that term. There is style you can ‘put on,’ but it is not of that I speak. That style which one ‘puts on’, can be taken off. Sometimes it falls off —in modern times it washes off. At all times it fades.” Personality, Professor Payne stated, “is an internal quality. If you do not have real manhood and womanhood within you, you cannot paste them on. A woman may add paint and rub powder, but she may still be ‘a rag’ a bone and a hanW RHEUMATISM CONQUERED You Can Now Get Well With New Prescription Containing Seventeen Ingredients 1 hat Renew Every Part of Body. Rheumatism may be caused by any number of things and the only sure way to relieve it is through a systematic treatment that will reach every part of the body and all the vital organs. This complete treatment is found only in a prescription known as Re-Cu-Ma, which contains sev enteen well known and thorough ly tested medicines, so skillfully compounded that each one per forms its function on th e various parts of the body perfectly and harmoniously. This remarkable prescription starts right to work on the blood, taking out the rheumatic pains and removing pimples ahd skin blemishes; relieves constipation cleanses the kidneys, thoroughly acting upon the colon. In addi tion. Re-Cu-Ma starts the liver to work naturally and pleasantly, gives you a digestion that enable you to eat anything you like and sleep like a log. Re-Cu-Ma is a scientific prescription that revives, renews and regenerates the vital I organs and is sold and recommend by all good drug stores,—(adv.) THE AMERICUS TIMES-RECORDER of hair.’* Remarking that it had been said that personality may not be taught or learned, or acquired, the speaker asserted that to the contrary it .could be taught and learned—even analyzed. “Consider,” he said, “ti e folowing characteristics or personal ty: consecration to duty; optimism, enthusiasm, hopefulness, courtesy, thoughtfulness and consideration; gratitude, temperance; loveliness: fairness, peaceableness, gentile and | gentleness,” and advises his adui | tors t 0 “love somebody and love him persistently and intently. Go into the world if you are to be a teacher lof man—and all Christians do teach j something—with all the loveliness I which you may possess. “You owe it to yourself and to I your companions, and to the public,” | he told the young wome.i, “to dress j as lovely as you can; for men d<« .judge by appearances, and they ! ought to. Yell all you wish at the .football game. Shout all you choose [at church. Grow with youthful j a., as you live when ■Tthe beauties of nature overpower your soul. The world needs it; you need everyone is better for Er. Hyne drew a facetious line of distinction between gentility and ‘ gentlemls, declaring, "A cow has gentleness, but >bnly- human being can have gentility.
