Dr. Blanton suggests that the method of selecting city superintend­

rural 
schools are confronted. There seems to be no good reason why a 
county board of trustee* could not elect a superintendent just as the

It is absurd for Texas to inhibit the growth of its rural

It is a fault which ought certainly to be corrected.

From Other Pens

M ob Spirit

Civilization of today has reached such an advanced stage that it can 
hardly be compared with that of any other age. New invention* and 
discoveries have changed the whole trend of ordinary life, widely af­
fecting social conditions, and at the same time effecting in a way a 
social revelation. New problems are alway* arising which have never 
required consideration before and which must be handled by men of
initiative and ability.

One tendency which appear* characteristic of this new state of af­
fair* seems to be the sires* which is being laid, partly by circumstance, 
on the consideration of the mas* of people rather than the individ­
ual. Everything is made in large quantities for a large number of 
people; entertainm ents and amusements are arranged to appeal 
to 
as many as possible; consideration of the feelings and wishes of the 
* general mass is regarded as esse ntial, ami the world seems in danger 

of being stampeded by mob spirit.

This tendency is one which is natural, but one which is none the 
its 
less to be feared. The tremendous increase in population and 
greater concentration in certain centers is partly responsible; while 
the increasing lack of privacy and quiet, and the effect of newspapers, 
movies and tile Mkt, which act upon vaat numbers simultaneously are 
other important factors which act in the same direction.

One characteristic of every mob is that a leader or leaders are nec­
essary to keep it in any kind of order. Everyone knows how mob 
spirit operates. 
In a panic at a fire, for instance, everything is for­
gotten and the mob thinks duly of the present* and a wild and disor­
ganized dash to escape from danger is the result. Mob spirit pre­
vails unless there are some who can transcend the present in their 
own thought, exercise an influence on the mob and keep them sane

And this seems to be one of the really great dangers in the world 
today— the threat of mob sp irit 
If the general tendencies which are 
becoming a part of human life in this age cannot be changed, then it 
is necessary to develop leaders, men who can stand aside and think 
for themselves and can regulate and control matters. The more men 
who can be developed who can stolid apart from the mob and have a 
mind of their own, the law danger there will be.

In developing lueh men the universities must of necessity play an

Speaking of 

poker. Thomas 
Meighan 
in “ We’re All Gamb­
le? s,” opening a t the Texas today, 
shows plenty of th at in the 
se­
quences dealing with New Y o r k 
night life. Meighan does every­
thing from prize-fighting to night 
club operating in the film, and he 
does them well and with just 
a 
touch of humor, according to an­
nouncements made by the m an­
agement.

The story snows tne star as a 
youngster at the sta rt— a waif on 
a New York East River dock who 
is picked up by a policeman and 
taken in by a kindly woman as 
her son. By the time heartaches 
manhood he is a contender for 
the heavyweight championship, a 
celebrity who stirs the interest of 
an aristocratic woman. An auto 
mobile injury prevents him 
from 
winning the 
title and he even­
tually becomes the proprietor of 
a night club.

The early scenes of the fight 
an auto accident and East Side 
life are tense and exciting. The 
night club’s New Year celebration 
later brings about a thrilling cli­
max.

Supporting Mr. Meighan 

is a
brunette beauty from Vienna, Ma­
rietta Millner. She has appeared 
in only one American picture be­
fore this, but her future is as­
sured. That dear old lady, Ger­
trude Claire, the grandm other in 
T he Goose Hangs High,” adds 
charm to the film.

Lew Cody and Aileen Pringle 
will make their third co-starring 
appearance in Austin when these 
two whimsical comedians open at 
the Queen theater today in “ Wick­

is 
said to be even funnier than “ Ad
