Heel closes. Examinations are here and we must drop other work for them. ."'Before leaving The Tar Heee to our successors, we wish to thank the members of the JBoard of Edi tors for their assistance and g-ood work for the past term and to com pliment the Business Managers for their good management and con gratulate them that they finish the year with a gain instead of a debt. Our best wishes go to those, who will serve on the Board next year. May they be successful in their efforts and make our college paper a thoroughly wide-awake and inter esting sheet. That has been, our aim and we hope that the work has not been all failure, but futher iuv provement can be made by our suc cessors. We expect to see The Tar Heel grow and prosper and shall be very much disappointed H does not. . and w ho have done all in their pow- ' As we pass out the west end of er to make our gatnes a success the campus along Cameron Avenue and our visits pleasant.

" we uoubt it there is a town in the South, where it would be prac ticable to play, which is m6re neu tral or fair minded as regards the two teams. Let us1 go back there next May and see if that old Vir giuia pot can't make another four teen to six stew. During the past year, we . havt lifid nt-ilr aiip ictnrlonf nllK1 irn tmri ' ns. the Magazine decided to retire at the first of the year. This action was at that time necessary and though many regretted it, nothing else could be done. But such an action made it a fact that we art the only University in the South which is without a monthly Maga zine. This v: rather a reflection on our literar- ability or our loyalty to our alma mater. Surely our lit erary societies, not to speak of stu dents not members of society, have ability to edit the Magazine and to make it creditable, too. It is something that is a great deal of trouble to the Editors, but they are, or ought to be, improved by reason of their work, or if they do not believe this, have not the Societies enough loyalty to the University' to resume the publica tion of the Magazine?' The existing condition is one which sadly fail to reflect credit on our societies and our University. Can not this be remedied? ' The Societies are the onlv ones who can remedy it. Will they do it? By making" their plans now and work ing during the summer, it is proba ble that publication could be resum ed next term. We hope to see an effort made in that diraction, at any rate. The hospitality and kindness, and above all the good attendance at our recent yaiues in Danville have bcjn very gratifying to Chap el Hillians and wearers of the White and Blue. We have there many loyal friends and admirers who have been as kind as' could be There is a clause in the constitu tion of the Athletic Association which says that any member of the Tar Heee board who does not at tend to his duties for three succes sive issues shall be dropped from the board. The experience of the past past proves' tins not rigid lough. We think that it should be one issue instead of three and that it should give a definite power the Editor-in-Cheif to drop the name of the offending- editor from the board. And not only that, but that it should be his duty to publish the name and reason of expulsion in the next issue of Thh Tar TIeee. We believe that this is the only method of stopping the present custom of doing as you see fit and allowing the Editor-in-Chief no choice but to i do all the work. Had such a rule been in existence during the present term, the names at the head of these columns would have been changed. We hope that the Association will adopt the above suggestion before the election of the next board of editors. There is no other place in Chapel Hill that' needs a walk so badly and wp hnne the inconvenience will be remedied before Commencement be o-iiis. Such a walk could be mad R - - without any great expense and should be made at once. Dr. Huttie in Warretitoii. Dr. Hume goes to Warrenton.Va where he lectures Friday night on the "Sh: k p.'riau Sidelights on Old English Life." Our faculty has been quite in demand this spring by those who seek commencement ad dresses. Dr. Hume alone has de clined four invitations, and for no other ' reason than these occasions would come during the examination period and he refuses to give up his college duties for other less impor tant matters. However the Doctor has accepted an invitation tn speak to the Teachers' Assembly in Ashe ville on "The Uses of Literature.' This address will" take place on the 18th of June when all exercises here will have been suspended. The Tar Heel is glad to htai of the success of Mr. W. B. Fer guson, Jr., "()7. in. the competitive examination for the United States Naval Academy, at Annapolis. Mr. Ferguson vm the appointment, leading all competitors by six p.Vints his own mark being ninety-five,' out of a possible hundred. , Mr. 'Ferguson has a brother at West Point, and another brother, Mr. H. L. Ferguson, who graduat ed from Annapolis with the highest honors, easily standing at the head of his class. The Tar Heel wishes him much success in his chosen profession. The University of North Caroli na requires a graduating senior to either deliver an oration at Com mencement or to present a written thesis. Only six can speak but all are allowed to contest for these places. A thesis is required of a law student graduating B.L. but he is not allowed the privilege of ever contesting for a place to speak at Commencement, Is this a iust distinction between a law and an ac ademic graduate? The law class has been an important part for over fifteen years, and it ,is nothing but right that it should have at least one representative at Commence ment. Those aspiring to such an honor might contest with the other speakers on May 1st and under the same conditions. This year there are only five senior speakers, six be ing allowed. Should not the law class have a I. L. graduate on the list? We hope the authorities will consider this and give the law class its just representative. NOTICE. To Our Sub raiders: The Ath letic Association is in debt; .The Tar HEEL is in debt, and you alone are able to relieve them both, sim- plv bv sending in your subscription dues. Now, do this, please, with out further delay, so that next year we may start afresh, unenguniberet with a load of debt and with fresh izeal. We will be unable to get our paper out another season unless, this matter is attended to and this at tention we wish to lie remembered The Managers.
