We welcome all the old fellows back and hope - each man spent the holidays most' pleasantly, The good rest after the examina tions seems to have done many of the fellows much good, for most of them are fat and rosy cheeked. To the new ones we extend a cor dial greeting and tell them not to mind being "freshed" a bit. It comes in a life time. Now fellows lets each one of us start out with the determination of do ing something not only for our selves but for the University. The. 'University offers us untold advantages, let us utilize these things as they should be. And in turn let us show our apprecia tion by each man doing some thing for the University. Dr. Winston our faithful .and progressive president, 'works like j a Trojan for us. Let us help him Each man knows some fellow at home who will go off to college next year. Bring him here. You can do it if you will. Do it. - There are so many ways of our helping Dr. Winston in his efforts to place lis where formerly we stood, not abreast with, but head and shoulders above, every other iJnversity in the South. Work for the baseball team, make it win " the championship, we , can if we will encourage the applicants for the team applaud them in their efforts don't be continual ly criticizing the manager. Have a rattling tennis tournament. Get out a good Hellenian. Have the best Glee Club that has ever been in the South. Write for the Magazine don't be so con founded wrapped in self and cig arettes.: ; We need a more thor ough awakening from our leth j " argy. While we have athletics and make a stir in one portion of the University, the other part sleeps on.v Emerson has said: 'Nature arms one man with some faculty which enables him to do easily same feat impossible to any other. ' ' , All of us cannot . be on the base ball team, but many of us can sprint, can put the shot, or jump, or what not, if we would. More of us can help the Magazine. This publication now is the best of its kind in the Union (we speak not unadvis edly) but there tis a dearth of real student work in it. Write some thing only begin write stories. Every fellow has had some ro mantic experience our profes sors in those departments will be only- too glad to help us ; smoothing and polishing them up. Do more debating in the societies. Law students, make your moot court proceedings so interesting and exciting that- you' will be come pressed for room. There is more inspiration when facing a large and interesting crowd. You can have this crowd only by ex citing the interest of the other students who will swarm there to hear you. Have ambition-'tis the lack of that which seems to affect most of us. Let a man have it known that when it is noised about that he will speak that night at the moot - court ft the hall will be crowded long before time for beginning in anticipation of li'is speech 'tis that which tells in after life. Make the Y. M. C. A. more in teresting. Have a cessation of luke-warmness students will al ways go where they will be en tertained. Cease our hard feelings towards our president, who we think curtails our liberties. Realize coolly that he does nothing but what will result Jn some good for us. ' , .- ;'.:. , In short, let's be men. The University is a place for men on ly not children. The upper class men make themselves more worthy of the respect of the lower classmen. Make a freshmail' re alize more that he must work to also claim that respect when he becomes a senior, and not regard it merely as a matter of revoul tipu and his time is sure to come. Help the University if not di rectly, then indirectly in some of the ways, a few only of the pos sible ways, alone mentioned. It will never be a source of regret. OUR YOUNG ALUMNI. ! Charles Ernest Shober, '85, is with the" Lillian Ruell Opera Co., which is now playing at the Casino in New York city. June Parker, '89, is practicing law in Durham, N. C. "Snake Wills," '91, is on the Forum, in New York city. John A. Gilmer, '93, is attend ing Eastman College, Poughkeep sie, N. Y. News has reached here of the marriages of J. S. Worth, Jr., '92, and of O. L. Sapp, '91. The Tar Heel extends best wishes to both the young benedicts; but wonders how it was possible. Phil B. Thompson, who was here in '89, .is attached to the American Legation at St. Peters burg, Russia. I "Skinny' Williams, '93, is in Washington, D. C, where' he has a position in the office of the Third Assistant Postmaster Gen eral. " Ben Green, '91, is in the mer cantile, business in Petersburg, va. ; : J. Garnett Smith, '94, is book keeping for a large wholesale drug house in New York city. James F. Gaither, '93 is Sup't of the Salisbury Roller Mills, Salisbury, N. C. John Watlington, '93 is teller in a Bank at Reidsville, N. C. J. U. Newman, '85, is one of the faculty of Elon College, N. C, the rapidly growing institu tion -.of the Christian church in this State. The following gentlemen have been elected ball managers : Chief W. A. Graham. Subs. Di W. L. Scott, V. E. Armstrong, Pat Harty. Phi. - M. Mattocks, T. P. Wharton, E. C. Gregory. Harvard loses this year every member of her last year's victo? rious nine. Even the captain re signed dreading the labor neces sary to put out a good team this season. The University of Wisconsin recently held an ice boat regatta. We never had the pleasure of such excellent sport way down South. A ship canal of much importance to European commerce will be opened next year. It connects the North sea with the Baltic and has been constructed jointly by Prussia and the German empire. ' This great waterway is 66 yards wide at its bottom and has no locks, the water flowing through it on a level with the Baltic sea. Sluice gates at each end regulate the level. An invention has been perfected which will enable musical composers to tick off their.notes on the typewriter in stead of putting ' them down one at a 'time in the old, slow, painful pen and ink way. This will be a great boon to composers, though it will be rather hard on the rest of the world if the result of it is to let loose upon us more floods of va riety concert hall songs.
