GEORGIA-CAROLINA DEBATE
Stipulations Have Been
and the Debate is Assured
At last the Georgia debate is a
certainty.
The two college last year could
not come to any agreement satisfac
tory to both sides. A tfirst itseemed
that such would be the case this
year, as the Georgia people wished
to admit law students. But they
have now agreed to renew the stip
ulations under which we formerly
debated. As this is what we wish
ed all along, they have been signed
by both sides and the
assured.
The next thing in order is for the
contestants for positions on our team
to present a query, and then get
down to work. Georgia has always
been our strongest rival on the
rostrum, winning three of the six
debates we have had with them.
To win this series means, not only
to work off the tie, but to firmly
establish Carolina's claim to the
southern debating championship.
For this reason it is hoped that our
best men will enter the contests.
The following is a copy of the
stipulations:
On this, the first day of October,
1903, the Phi Kappa and Demosthe
nian Societies of the University of
Georgia, and the Dialectic aud Phil
anthropic Societies of the Univer
sity of North Carolina enter into
the following agreement: .'
First: There shall be a series of
three annual debates between the
said Universities.
Second: These debates shall take
place on the first Friday night in
April of each year, beginning with
1904.
Third: These debates shall be
held alternately in Chapel Hill,
N. C, and Athens, Ga., the first to
be held in Chapel Hill.
Fourth: Each University shall be
represented by two debaters, the
same to be selected by the Lit
erary Societies or their respective
institutions.
Fifth: The societies at the Insti
tution where the debate is held
shall bear all expenses except trav
eling expenses, of the visiting
debaters.
Sixth: The President or Chan
cellor of the Institution at which
the debate is held shall with the
concurrence of the President or
Chancellor of the other Institution,
choose three judges who shall de
cide the debate. But no one shall
be a judge who is a student or
alumnus of either Institution; or
who is officially connected there
with. Seventh: A query for debate
shall be submitted by the societies
at whose institution the debate is to
be held, by the third Saturday in
October, and the societies of the
other institution shall inform those
submitting the query of their choice
of sides within two weeks of the
time the query is submitted.

Philological Club
The Philological Club held its
first meetiug for the college year
debate on luesday night, in the Alumni
Building. Papers were read by
Prof. W. D. Toy and Dr. C. A.
Smith.
Prof. Toy's paper was on "Cer
tain Points of Comparison Between
Tatian's 'Harmony' and the Old
Hiirh German Translation." The
substance was as follows:
Tatian's Latin Harmony is a
life of Christ made out of the four
Gospels in such a way as to pre
sent a continuous narrative. The
German version was the work of
a monk at the monastary of. Ful
da in the year 825, and is a
literal translation of the Latin.
Attention v.as called to a number
of points in which errors of the La
tin produced striking results in
the Old High German translation.
These results were made clear by
tabulating the . readings of the
Greek original, the Latin and the
Old High German Version.
Dr. Smith's paper "Two Notes
on Conditional Sentences in En
glish." (1). The . indicative mood in an
unreal conditional ("If Washington
xuas alive") is declared by all the
grammarians, American and for
eign, to be of comparatively recent
date. It has not hitherto been
traced earlier than Richard Brin-
siev oneriuan U'i-ibio;. it oc
curs, however, in Bunyan's Pilgrim
Progress (1684) II, 77: "As if one
was awake."
(2). In his Shakespeare Gram
matik (3) Franz quotes the fol
lowing sentences from Antony aud
Cleopatra III, 4, 31: "As if the
world should cleave, and that slain
men should solder up the strife."
There are many sentences of this
sort in Shakespeare, and even in the
writings of Steele, Addison, and
Swift. The problem is to explain
that, which is used as a substitute
for ij. I have found this construc
tion occurring twice in Chaucer's
Parson's Tale. It is not known in
Alfredian English (See Wiilfing's
Syntax in den Werken Alfred's des
Grossen (448-450). I suggest
that the word in question is merely
a remnant of if thai which Chaucer
and Shakespeare often use instead
of the simple that.
The following ofheers were elect
ed for the current year:.
President, W. 1). Toy.
Vice-President, C. A. Smith.
Secretary and Treasurer, T. J.
VYsUon, Jr.
