C, WEDNESDAY, FEB. ;..tfi, 1910 NO. 30 OFFICIAL ORGAN OF THIS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION FIRST BANQUET OF 1912 PROFS. ROYSTER, HERTY, BER NARI), AND NOBLE SPEAK ROMANCE OF WM. CAMERON AFTER HEROIC STRUGGLE WITH POVERTY DIES WEALTHY entering Sophomores seem to be finding their place in college existence The first banquet in the history of the Class of 1912 was held last Friday evening at the University Inn. Serv ed by "Marse" Jesse as only h-e can serve, presided over by F. P. Barker, and attended by four of the strongest members of the faculty, the banquet was most enjoyable. The speeches made by the members of the faculty were serious, and each had a purpose, yet was livened with enough wit and humor to hold the attention and inter est of every sophomore. The responses by members of the class showed hat 1912 has found her place in college life and is going to fill it. Pres. Bark er sounded the keynote when in his in troduction he said, "Our sense of class spirit is deep and our love for our alma mater great." His pirting injunction of "Lay on, lay on, MacDuff, ami curs'd be he who first cries hold, enough," was obeyed with surprising alacrity. Prof. Wm. S. Bernard was the first speaker from the faculty. His subject was "College Government". Mr. Ber nard characterized the system of self government, ot freedom bound by law, in vogue at Carolina as the crowning f fliA institution.

(C!.ntimu;d on Fourth Page) A man or high social standing forced to do menial labor for a liberal education If William Cameron had known when he was preparing himself for college that a legacy of several thou sand dollars would fall to him in the middle of his freshman year would he have waited a year before college? And had he waited a year, witli that Knowledge, and had not been re quired to undergo the physical and mental strain necessary in overcoming the problems in his way to a college edu cation would the fatal stroke have been warded off? Does the. mind have such an influence on the body that it would briii"- on death in the form it struck him? Two problems faced William Cam eron when he determined to get collejre education, ana wiien lie was considering ways and means for such an education. One was social emir on men t.' which demanded a college ed ucation and yet at the same time op posed doing menial labor for it, and the other was poverty, now were these problems to be solved? The first he solved when he determ ined to o-et a coll care education, re gardless of family penates and menial labor.

For tho his board cost him nothing, nor his room, nor his tuition, there were other expenses to defray, incidental, but necessary, to college life. Registration fees must : be met, clothes bought, and books. He solved this problem by working through the summer previous to his college year. It required nerve to face the prob lem of his social environment to which he was used, and to face poverty, that he might accomplish the end at which he had aimed. But William Cameron was a lighter. He faced his troubles with the unflinching courage of a sol dier and even with a happy heart. He was a born fighter. He was High land Scotch. In him flowed the blood of the chief's family of the Camerons of Lochiel, Scotland, and of the chief's family of the clan MacGregor, of Gleu- orchv and of Glendochart. He was descended-ioo, from the Moores of the Cape Fear. His great great grand father, Judge Alfred Moore, was pro minent among those who worked for the establishment of the University. His great grandfather, Hon. Alfred Moore, was an honor graduate of the Universit- when seventeen years of ae-e. . ' He had just finished his first term; he had worked daily for his board, and had been successful practically with all his studies. He went home for a visit after examination, was stricken with paralysis, and died. William Cameron was the only son of Allan Jones Cameron and Emily Turner Sutton, his wife, and was born in Norfolk, Va., Feb. 4, 1893. He died at his home in Hillsboro Feb. 3, 1910, and 'was buried on his seven teenth birthday. (Jnci inl on fourth page. ) International Secretary of Y. M. C. 4. gives irrefutable argument for foreign missions The argument of Mr. E. T. Colton, International Secretary of the Y. Mi C. A. on fonign missions was deliver ed to the most attentive audience as sembled in Chapel Hill since the speich of President Woodrow Wilson on Lee's Birthday in 1909. Mr. Col ton's speech was vivid,' cleancut and understanda ble, and his conclusion in favor of the foreigti missionary movement in our own day seemed irrefutable. Briefly, in part, he said: The national instinct of the real lumberman has taken him from the de forested portions of the United States into the -virgin woodland of Canada The spirit of statesmanship in Eng land's ministers has inspired them to extend Great Britian's empire over eve ry part of the globe. Surely the true Christian should feel '-himself animated to go among the non-Christian nations where heathenism is as yet unbroken; the true statesman in the Kingdom of God should strive to see this Kingdom broadened to include the whole world. Materially we have exploited the heathen nations. Anglo-Saxon busi ness enterprise recognizes no foreign country. We have placed ourselves in contact with these darker peoples. To a large degree we have broken down their faith in their own religions and thereby destroyed the moralistic in fluence that these religions exerted. We have given them our vices and en hanced their own. History teaches that when two races come into close contact the moral standard of each is either raised or lowered. It remains for us to decide whether we shall per mit our morals to be contaminated with the vices of the' non-Christian nations, or by converting them, shall bring them up towards our own level. Mr. Colton spoke in the afternoon at the real missionary study rally. Prof. E. K. Graham who presided at the meeting presented the list nf courses that would be given in this department. Miss Aniee Bright ren dered a beautiful solo during the ser vices. . At night Mr. Warner, who is the head of the Y. M.C.A. Missionary movement in Brazil, told 'of the tre mendous possibilities of this field. He J (lescrinea me immense natural re sources ot the country and araiust this background drew a 'picture of (he awful moral conditions existing in this country. Mr. Col ion and Rev. Mr. Ilogue made short addresses at the evenimr services, impressing upon the audience the fortune that was theirs in beinjr permitteu toparuauy support Secre tary Barnett in the new field to which he has been called. Mr. Ilogue stated that the plan to raise live . hundred dollars for Barnett's support was based on the assumption that there could be found ten members of the faculty Who would give ten dollars, twenty mem bers of the faculty' who would give five dollars, one hundred students who would give two dollars, one hundred who would give one dollar, and two (Gout iiiticd on fourth flgf.)
