Up to the lvil war the University of North Carolina had accumulated from v this source over 1100,000. To-day. there Is nowhere In the world a college or uni versity that la self-aupportlng, Their chief sources of - aupport are private philanthropy and pubMo taxation. The University of SU Luls has lust re ceived a bequest of five 'million dol lars; the University of California re ceives annually front public taxation an Income of more than 1300.000. The revenues of Harvard University ex ceed. those, ot the Slate or North Caro To start the new University and keen It going during the. hard years of Us . early struggle required the combined - resources ot private philanthropy, pub lie taxation and student fees. The chief resource was public taxation; a power that had not yet been employed . for this purpose in North Carolina But a new era bad come, the era ot popular if education : bth in lower schools And in higher. It was well for this era to be heralded by the opening of a new University, a people's Univer sity, and to be marked by a new right, the right of people acting through their own representatives to tax themselves for the higher education of their own v sons in their own Institutions. It is worthy of note that the estab Hshment of this right and through it the establishment and maintenance of this university was due, though indl recU te the wisdom and beneficence of the Federal government The hand that had tmkien down was -. now strongest In raising up. The appropri ' atlon to the University of the Interest of the land script fund which had Peen donated by the national Congress for the promotion ot industrial education, . was the beginning in North Carolina of thy new principle of popular educa tion supported by popular taxation. The principle once established was bound to grow. New necessities were met by larger grants. State soon to be a theory and became an accomplished fact. The people learned that the new University, the State's University. meant neither aristocracy nor theocra cy, but eternal democracy. But the lson was slow to learn, and its teach ing was attended with amaxlng dlfflcul ties.

PROBLEM OV OHOANI2A- The ;next problem bef ors the new university organisation. It is amusing to-recal. the discussions of that day, as to wlietner our little band of seven teachers should organise themselves Into a tierman 'University, rivalling Ooettlnaen. or an English University. the peer of Oxford, of descend to a still lower plane, as competitor wlth the University of, Virginia. The last plan waa adopted becauso of its greater feasibility; and our Uttle band," not to be, outdone by Its anolent rival, divided Itself up Into a score of schools, eol leges and denartment4'capabl of re' combination n proper occasions Into one great Umlverirtty. As well as your speaker can .;- remember, at this dis tance or time, th humblest memwr of our faculty represented in Ms single person five Independent schools con ferring certificates" of proficiency and twolcompleta colleges conferring cer tificates ot graduation.. Baccalaureate degrees iwere oestowed oy the Joint ac tion ot our whole nattaiion or scnoou, collewes and departments, while the entire faculty of seven now consolidat ed into one ; Universlt jc and supported y a rearguard of eighty trustees, con ferred upon lunresisHng genius tne grand Insignia of doctor ot divinity or doctor of laws. We-. had as great an affair as ever John Locke Invented In his ' "Original Onstltutlffna for the Province of Carolina,',' with carefully graduated orders of society, from cooks, scullions and plow boys to landgraves, marquises and caciques It required many years to eieoorate our present system o(,.instructlon. The faculty aiscussionB tneiuens inereto. covering a great variety of toplqs, were usually prolonged far Into the .night with little satldfastion to the partici pants and lass to the gentle dames who presided over expectant households awaiting the return of professorial de bauchee Irom the Joys- of a weekly faculty meeting. But. If the faculty meetings lost us occairtolially the con fidence of our better half es, they drew us closer to each other, and threw In teresting side lights upon attractive characters. "Professor DeBernlere Hoop.", said ln we t;na.nej .-runups after a heated discussion as to the righteousness of the Southern causes and the Justice of Its overthrow 1n war, Professor Hooper, l cannot under stand how a mail who believes in the wisdom, goodness and power of Al mighty God can doubt that whatever He has made to be Is Just and right and for the best." This Was a difficult problem for a man whoso two eternal verities were Almighty God and the Southern Confedenacyr I wondered what would be or could pe th solu tion. "'Doctor Fhlllips," waa the calm and measured reply, "I have given much study and even prayerful con sideration to this most difficult prob lem, and I am forced to the reluctant though deliberate conclusion that the result ot the late unhappy struggle be tween the North and. the South Is a case of the . temporary circumvention of providence by the Yankees." Whatever difference of opinion exist ed on matters of organlzatlon.there was unanimity on one point, that the spirl! of the new University should be, it pos sible, the spirit or the old; a spirit which emphasised character' above scholarship,! and -co aside red the best equipment for life to be genulnu man hood.

'. The old University has nobly done Its wark. During the better part of a cen tury It upheld for State and nation pure and kitty standards ot public and pro fessional Ufa. Well might Its banner float again (over the new laboratories and the new theories of the new Uni versity, .We flung It proudly to the breese; and held up before a new gen eration of young men as the chief Jewel for them to seek; that which the old University had always sought to fash Ion, the sterling character ot a South ern gentleman. ' : To complete fhe organisation of the new University along the (tries it Is now loiiowing requirea run twenty yean. via customs ana, old traditions wers not always helpful. There was opposi tion to every change and frequently the wuksi measures - were accomplished with the greatest difficulty. II required nrteen years to overcome the Inertia of not using books; to consolidate Into one working library three separate and comparatively useless collections of books. The cblianthropie library, locat ed In the top of the new east building and the dialectic In the top of the new west, contained tolerable colectiona In general literature, which had been pur enea--or-donatecrrby.iaents and Used mainly for - entertainment and amusement. Much money had been wasted In foolish rivalry; and there was large accumulation of useless dupli cate The society librarjes were open only three hours a week; one hour on Wednesday afternoons and two on Saturday mornings. The college library, carefully guarded under lock and key, waa never open, exempt When inquisitive students breaking 'down-the door or Climbing through the windows, dUturbed the ac cumulated diwt and cobwebs, rendering themselves liable to faculty summons and severe reprimand. it Is said that the latest book added to the college llbiary had been some time In the 30s during the presidency of Dr. Caldwell, ana that It bore on the fly leaf this In scription, written In the doctors hand, 'This book perlalneth to tie library of the University of North Carolina." The new University realized that a student'a life is nourished by books; that a real University Is a great collec tion of books. After long efforts and violent opposition the three libraries above named were consolidated into one and moved Into the present library building. A trMncd librarian was em ployed, the doors were kept open from 8 in the morning till in the evening, and a purpetual fund, growing larger year by year, was jvrovlded for Its In crease and Improvement. This founda tion of a real working library made pos sible a revolution In all departments of the University Instruction. The stu dent was now sent to the library, where Ife could be reader, thinker and critic as Weil as listener in the class room. His menial horlxon was enlarged, his Judgment strengthened, and a begin hlng was made of Intellectual indepen dunce. What the law JiUrary Is to the attorney, or the medical library to the physician, the library of hlBtory, liter ature ami philosophy became to the collfge student Every atudy offered subjects of special Investigation for which the library furnished material; and every student became In some de gree a specialist and an investigator. An Improvement equally great in the worn or organisation was the provision of scientific equipment, From the old University no equipment hud been In herited, excepting "the Vienna cabi net of minerals," whose1 chief func tion Boetns to have been to fill a page In the annual catalogue. If any age might be called the age of science, it waa that in which the new University, was ttorn. such wonderful advances had betm achieved In all departments of science, such universal applications of scientific knowledge In the industrial arta, Buch Tar. reaching theories con cerning the phenomena of life and mat ter, such marvelous Invention of tools, apparatus and machinery for work and experiment, that no teaching 6f science was now possible without ample equip ment of teachers and apparatus for ex perimental work of the most delicate and accurate character. This was nec essary not only In physics and chemis try, whose varied applications in prac tical life gave t'hem commercial as well as educational value, but especially In the new science of biology, which was now established as an Indispensable basis for tha study of all problems re lating to man. Geology too and miner alogy with new theories and new appli cations In life nw demanded new methods of Instruction. Not only stu dents and Investigators, but the public mind, too, was strongly aroused to the deepest Interest in science.

A chemical laboratory was provided, with new equipment and bw met bods ot Instruction, Apparatus was secured for physical experiments; geology and mineralogy were organised ln:a a separate department, with work?' mg laboratories ana neja excurstons: and a biological laboratory, modern and well equipped, was established In the ball ot the old Philanthropic Library. The new University made provision for modern Instruction In every science ex cepting astronomy. ach step takes was In accord with the spirit of the age and In harmony with the requirements of the new educations Everything was accomplished that could be done with the limited resources available. Grad uates of this University might now go tor advanced Instruction to the great universities ot the worlJ, confident that they would have nothing to unlearn, but only to extend their knowledge by means of the -greater facilities -which were afforded elsewhere by . greater wealth There Is scarcely a leading university in America where .graduates of this In st tuition, during the last 25 years, win ning scholarships and fellowships In competition wWr men from other col leges and universities, nave not achiev ed ihonor and distinction by scholarship in letters, Investigation In science, apec- ulation in philosophy or research in rib tory.. The new University planted on high ground Its standard of scholarship, not only for the few leaders who wore Its honors, but for every man that carried, Its diploma. The real work and the high achievement requisite to gradua tlon stimulated a desire for more work and ' still loftier, achievement : after graduation and led of advanced course of post-graduate instruction and the conferring of ad vanced degrees only in recognition of work actually penormeiWunaer the guidance of the University faculty. It is not the least glory of the new uni versity that it . maintained from the very first high requirements of scholar rfhlp, thereby elevating the teaching standard throughout the State. This was accomplished mainly by the selec' Hon of well qualified and competent professors for all the chairs of Jnstruc tlon. .No considerations of personal popularity, political necessity, family Inlluence, aeetarian !ntereat, or local demand availed to place unworthy men In the faculty of the new university. Oue of the greatest problems before the new University was, how to make Its opportunities accessible to lada of talent and character without means to bear the expense of education away from home. It was the problem ot free tuition and cheap living. This problem appealed more strongly to philanthrop ists than ull other problems before the University. At the very beginning It moved the Legislature to establish scholarships for every county, and year by year it touched the hearts of men and women longing to lift up struggling lands to higher opportunities in life. Fund after fund was established and additional scholarships were provided the Deems fund, the Alary Ruitln Smith fund the iMary Ann Smith fund, the iMary Shepherd Speight fund, the Martha and Varina tMason funds, the Thos. F. Wood scholarships and the Paul Cv Cameron scholarships, with free Instruction for lada preparing to serve the State as teachers or preach era, or handicapped In the struggle for lite with bodily Inflrmity; until it could truly be said that the doors of the new University were practically open free of charge to every lad who was worthy to enter and unable to pay. It only re malned to reduce the expense of living, which was accomplished in 1896 through the combined generosity of the alumni In don ning the use of yonder building, and of Mrs. iMary Baker in supplying the funds for the equipment ot Cam mons Hall,; as a token of appreciation of the benefits recelvcd-by her son In this institution. May those facilities for cheapening the cost of education In this Institution continue to grow and multiply. IMay we behold at an early day upon this catnpus a commodious and well-furnlshecf dormitory for the free lodging of lads who have climbed to these splendid heights along the steep paths of poverty and labor. In completing Its organisation, the new University Was not unmindful of student lite and of the larger oportunl ties demanded by modern education for the exercise of student activities. The old literary societies which had train ed In forensic and 11 1 era ry culture the foremost men of the nation, were still retained and fostered. For scientific study and research the Mitchell Society was organised; for Shakespearean study the Shakeapeare Club; and for linguistic the Philological Society. scholarship olub, a doxen Green letter fraternities, a sophomore Society, German Club, various class organixa tlons, baseball -teams, football teams, tennis dubs, bicycle clubs, track ath letlc teams, these and possibly others, not reporled to the executive at that time by then members, were organised, equipped and set n motion.
