. Good breeding, .as that "It the
term applied to personnel, conduct

Good breeding can as well be found
In the cottage of the peasant as

point. Both made "ones" on all
their Fall Term work.

body in acholarsnip, each in his own
way demonstrated the fact that a
man can make good grades and at
same time do other tilings. Young
Linker by working at the Univer
sity Print Shop four hours a usy

what a student can accomplish
notwithstanding the apparently In
surmountable difficulties in his way.
The report sent home to Mayor
O. B. Baton, young Clifton's father,
bore the words, "The best report
in the Freshman Class,". Young
Eaton, in addition, won the Fresn

Washington's Birthday, Feb. 33,
was celebrated here throughout the
day by the cessation of all college
duties and crowned at night by toe
36th celebration of the Clio Liter
ary Society. j
The chief item in the society s
celebration this year was the de
bate on the Preparedness Policy of
the Wilson administration, in which
Chas. N. Whitelock, of Huntington,
Ind., and Zab Vance Young of
YoungsviUe, N. C., earnestly up
held tbe administrations program.
'lhe affirmative began their ar
gument by accounting for the pres
ent unsatisfactory defense situa
tion in which the country, finds it
self, charging the conditions up to
the political necessity on the part
of congressmen to reduce the high
cost of living, bolstered up) on the
outside by the "peace at any price
advocates.'' They disclaimed any
intention or desire to enter upon
a militaristic program, but felt
sure that the Wilson program is
nevertheless an absolute necessity.
As reasons for their conclusion they
urged that war is alWays possible;
that the United States has always
maintained a policy of separate
ness from European politics and
foreign alliances in accordance with
Washington's famous farewell ad-,
dress, which policy by single-hand
edness and aloneness must be per
sistently adhered to and this in it
self cannot be possible without
some such policy of defense as that
now advocated by the Wilson ad
ministration; and finally that the
differences, racial commercial, po
litical and idealistical between the
nations of the world are such that
conflicts however much we may de
sire them to cease are not likely
cease within a millenium.
The opposition to the Wilson pro
gram was represented by Messrs.
W. P. Msrley, Ramseur, and Eugene
H. Rainey of Gasburg, Va. J These
?entlemen explained thav while
hey are peaceably inclined they
were far from being pacificists at
any price. They urged that a sure
guarantee of war in America is the
enactment into law of some such
measure as the Wilson program for
preparedness. They set great store
by majority leader Kltchin's speech
delivered recently, in which he urg
ed that our preasnt defenses are
for any conflict may threaten us.
They pointed out that the flpal suc
cess of the administration's diplo
matic correspondence and asserted
that international disputes have to
be settled by arbitration even after
war and could see no reason why
they should not therefore be set
tled without war.
They found serious objection to
the program on the ground that it
would make an entire change in the
policy of our government; necessi
tate unbearable taxes, stand as a
constant challenge to every nation
in the world to undertake to defeat
us if they can, and that military
preparations in the past far from
preventing war have aggravated it
They were eloquent In their dis
cussion of America's opportunity as
peacemaker for the world and de
plored the tendency of the jingoes
and militaristic voiclferators to
throw away this priceless oppor
tunity for doing lasting service for
mankind by bringing about such a
policy of preparedness as that now
advocated by the Wilson adminis
tration.
The rebuttal speeches were as
usual full of spice and ginger ana
were frequently interrupted by
outbursts of applaus from the au
dience. The negative won.
Preceding the debate two ora
tions were delivered, one by El
wood N. Pearce of Franklin coun
ty, who spoke on "Determination''
as the dynamic of the world'sprog
ress, ana the other by Irvln C. Wil
kins, of Suffolk, Va., who spoke
from the theme "Education that
Counts," in which he took issue
with many of the vocational and
materialistic tendencies of present
day education.
Mr. W. R. Mabry won the orator s
medal.
