We have been sorry to see, at some of the recent entertainments in Gerrard Hall, that the behavior of the students has been such as to ex cite comment. We recognize, of course that no impoliteness is meant and that it has not been done in a rowdy, rough spirit. Rather has it been done through the feeling that we are at home and can afford to amuse ourselves as we see fit. Nor do we wish to be understood as censuring" a good Matured -joke on fellow students but"f when the carelessness extends so far as to fail to notice a lady walking up the aisle, and the noise of the applause and whistling is kept up, the lady, of course, feels embarrassed and displeased. -Then, be the intention what may, the act becomes impolite, and we hope that, hereafter, nothing more of the kind will happen. 1 he establishment of the North Carolina Section of the American Chemical Society in Raleigh las week reminds one of the number excellent men the Chemical Depart ment has turned out within recen years. There is Dr. Battle of the Experiment Station, Df. DeSchw einitz of the Bio-Chemical Labora tory in Washington, Dr. Basker- ville in pur own faculty, Dr. W, B. Phillips, chemist to the Tenn. Coa and Iron Co. with his first Ass't J. R. Harris, Frank Dancey, Chem ist and General manager of the Old Dominion Carolina Fertilizer Co., Hugh h. Miller of the Navassa Guano Co., W. M. Allen of the Ex periment Station, W. R, Kenan, chemist to the Acetylene-Gas Co. in Niagara, Prof. R. H. Mitchell in the Pacific Methodist College in Santa Rosa Cal., and Mr. Clark the present Assistant in the Chemical Laboratory of the University. 1 hese are all men of whom the University should be prond, and in turn is the University indedted to Dr. F. P. Venable for them. For a long time we have talked and thought of a Dramatic Club. ! But it is only lately that any orga nized effort has been made in that direction. And the result of that effort has been both ; gratifying to the Club and of interest to the whole college. The success of the Club, in their first effort, has clearly demon strated the fact that we. have much ability and talent among us and that it soon will become one of the most popular branches of bur col lege life. And as such we think it deserves recognition on our Com mencement -programme. To the great majority of our visitors, ; it would be more intesesting than any other form of entertainment we could offer them. oo we nope tnose wno arrange such things, will give it their con sideration, and endeavor to give the Club the recognition they deserve For some reason, which we have never understood, many of the chairs in the Library have been chained to the floor beside the tables, thereby, in our opinion, diminishing the com fort and convenience of students and visitors. If a man wishes to work, is it not reasonable to suppose that be is best able to decide how and where, in the Library, he can do that work to the best advantage and with the greatest degree of comfort.? If he wishes only to read, sure ly he can do so better in an alcove or corner than chained in the.mid- dle of the room, where he is apt to be interrupted and annoyed by those passing in and out of the room. In cold weather, it is not only an in- convenience, Dut a discomfort, to be compelled to sit away from the stoves, and in warm weather much pleasanter to be near an open window, where fresh air could also be enjoyed, than to be uncomfortably Chained in the centre of the room. Let us hope, then, that the fetters will be loosed, so that one may en joy the advantages of the Library according to his own pleasure and comfort. The PhiosoPhical Society. In pursuance of a call a number of students met in the English Room for the purpose of forming a club for the discussion of philosophical and psychological problems. Dr. Williams being called -to the chair expressed his gratification at such a voluntary expression of the philoso phical spirit in the Univerity. . A constitution containing the fol fowing was then adopted. article 1 The name of this organziation shall be the University Philosophical Club. ART.2. Seel Its purpose shall be to promote interest in and discussion of problems of psychological, philosophical or ethical na ture, Sec. 2 Its officers shall consist of a President Vice Pres. and Treas.

PRESIDENT WINSTON, , Chapel Hill, N. C. Ward's New Restaurant, Opposite Pritchard's Store is the headquar ters for Fresh York River Oysters and Meals at all hours. Few Regular table boarders can be accomodated. Four years ago Psychology and Philosophy were considered, by the majority of students as subjects pu into the curiculum to prevent men from graduating. No benefit - was to be derived from such work bu instead, it tended to make one dis satisfied and skeptical. This is changing; there is grow ing up among thoughtful men of the University men a genuine apprecia tion of the benefit to be obtained from such courses. Men no longer regard-them as stumbling blocks, but rather as the climax to the college course. It has been seen that what is most essential in after life is their pur pose a knowledge of self and those with whom we come in contact. The formation of a Club, whose aim it will be to advance original think ing has given this philosophical spirit a permanent place in our life This Club will serve as a com mon meeting ground for all thinking men and as such will serve to widen and to make more lasting the ideas of all. But unless men come to the meetings with the subject of the evening well in hand the Club will all short of the purpose for which it was formed. Its life is discus sion-and by this alone can it live.

In clipping the hair with scis sors, this hollow is left open, and the hair loses its life-giving properties. I have a Machine named the Singeing Ma chine, which removes the hair and at the same time closes up the hollow, causing the hair to retain its life-giving properties, and therefore stopping- the hair from falling out or dying, and giving It a soft growth.
