LOCAL NOTES. Registration at 11:00 o'clock this morning 675. The Modern Literature Club will meet tonight at 7.30 in the Alumni building. The election of Chief Ball Man ager will take place in the chapel Saturday afternoon at 3.30. Question: To whom of the scrubs were the sweaters and suit of clothes offered last fall awarded? Mrs. W. H. Hester, mother of Mr. F. B. Hester, of the Junior class died of pneumonia after a two day's illness at her home near Raleigh last Thursday. The members of the Yackety Yack board met Tuesday afternoon and did honor to themselves and the University by dedicating the annual to Dr. K. P. Battle. At a meeting of the Athletic Advisory Committee soon after the close of the football season Mr. J. M. Robinson, '07, was elected man ager of the 1906 football team. At a recent meeting of the first Pharmacy class the following offi cers were elected: Messrs. C. M. Fox, president; C. T. Council, vice president; h. Birdsong, secretary. At a meeting of the Dialectic society Saturday night Mr. L. R. Rudisill, '04, was elected as that society's orator for the Washington Birthday exercises. The Phi has not yet selected its. representative. At a meeting of the members of the track team Tuesday after noon Mr. W. H. M. Pittman was elected captain, Captain-elect Rey nolds having left college. Earnest efforts will be made to turn out a team that will bring victory this spring, The final steps looking towards the debate with Georgia were con cluded sometime in December when Georgia chose the affirmative of the query, "Resolved, That the tariff policy of the United States should be revised upon the basis of a tariff for revenue only." Carolina will therefore, defend the negative. A rather important change has been made by the Faculty in the grading system. Beginning with the next year the meaning of a "5" will be "from 60 to 70 per cent." instead of "from 50 to 70 per cent." as now and heretofore. This means of course, that those receiving 59 or lower will please accept the grade as a request from the Faculty for an encore. -Dr. Charles L. Raper delivered a lecture before the American His torical Association in Baltimore, December 27 on the subject: "Why North Carolina at First Refused to Ratify the Federal Constitution." On December 29 Dr. Raper at a meeting of the American Economics Association in Baltimore led the dis cussion of the subject:" The Eco nomic Future of the American Ne gro." The societies met in regular session last Saturday night for the first time in the new year. "Resolv ed, that Japan would have been jus tified in accepting Russia's tr;a ty," was handled by the Di. The decision for the best speech was awarded to Mr. W. H. Jones, and the negative won. In the Phi the question was "Resolved, that taxes for school purposes should be distri buted among the races according to the taxes paid in by each." Mr. J. W. Umstead was voted the best speaker and the decision was won by the negative. Fair Warning. The board of editors of the Yack ety Yack for 1906 have gone to work in thorough earnest, deter mined to get out a publication worthy of this institution, and to get it out on time. In order 1o do this the material must be in the hands of the printers by March the 1st next. This makes it necessary that cuts of all pictures for the Yackety Yack, whether of individ uals or groups, be back from the engravers by that time. This will be impossible unless the pictures are in the hands of- the 'business managers by February the 1st. To give the photographers time in which to get these pictures ready, the negatives must be made next week. Mr Holladay will be on the "Hill" next week from Monday un til Saturday. He will be in his studio from 8 A. M. to 3 30 P. M. for the purpose of making negatives of individuals and after 3.30 he will be on the campus to take groups. All persons are hereby notified that unless their negatives are made sometime next week their pictures will not go in the Yackety Yack. This can work no hardship on any one, and we are forced, under the contract with the engravers, to make this regulation. Yackety Yack Board. WHITE ROLLS Cigarettes ARE NOT THE CHEAPEST, BUT THE BEST.

It had not occurred to you that there was any Christ mas on the Hill? Or perhaps you thought that if there were any it would be like the case of the pro verbial oak falling in the primeval forest. If there were any Christ mas there would be no one to bear vvituess of its having graced the place with its presence. But in either case you are wrong and lamentably far from the truth. There was Christmas in Chapel Hill, and the village was not wholly uninhabited. True, the day was much like any other. The sun rose and set ac cording to his custom. It was not a "red day" as McNeill's kid com plained that it should be. " Its bleak matter of factness compelled one, in order to realize it, to assure himself over and over again, "This is Christmas." There was really, however, no getting around the fact. The calendars were unanimous in asserting it. The colored natives lost no opportunity to remind one of it, making one feel as if he could sympathize with the author of that famous ragtime classic: "You Must Think I'm Santa Claus." Nothing exciting occurred beyond Doc. Kluttz's free fire works exhi bition Saturday night, and the oc casional starting up of the heating plant. The train, it is true, was so late coming in, on several occasions that, like the traveler in the crooked road, it met itself going back on the return trip, but this was not unexpected.

'Twas as cosmopoli tan a bunch as the University boasts. Some were from the ice locked regions of the North, some from sunny Florida, some from the chilly mountains of the West. Some stayed because their homes were far away. To some the Hill was as home, and they stayed from choice. Some had not their till ot work and stayed to get it. Some were "strapped" and waited for checks that never came. Gifts. Dr. Isaac E. Emerson, of Balti more, has given to the University the sum of $5,000 to be used as an endowment for the library of elec trical and mining engineering. The gift is timely, and most highly appreciated. It will prove of the highest usefulness in helping to equip the new library and in em phasizing the importance of special departments, so essential for a library adequate to the needs of a great University. Coming upon the heels of this gift is the establishment by Mr. Shephard Bryan, of Atlanta, of an annual prize of $25. in the Univers ity Law School. This will be known as "The Henry R. Bryan Prize," and will be awarded annual ly to that candidate for the . degree of Bachelor of Laws who presents the best thesis on the law of in- surance. i?or mis also the Uni versity is trrateful.
