Kirkland, Chancellor of Vanderbilt University, will de liver the principal address here on University Day, October 12. So far as is known at present, the program of exercises on Oct. 12 will be similar to last year's program. University Day is al ways an interesting event. It is the first holiday during the year. It is the first time after the open- ing exercises of the new college year that the -whole University community comes together.

HEALTH IMPROVES 50 P'OT No Lydia Pinkham Vegetable Com pound Ad, but Plain Infirmary Note It is interesting and pleasant news that comes from the Infirm- afy at this time, saying that so 'TO ADVERTISE OUR STATE' Is Purpose of N. C. Club; 60 j At First Meeting More than sixty men came to the first meeting of the North Carolina Club on Monday night, at the Y. M. C. A No officers were elected but at the sugges tion of President Graham a com mittee was appointed to make nominations and report them at the meeting next Monday night. The club will hereafter meet in the Y. M. C. A. every other Mon day night. " 1 Sixty men is a rattling good start and the club promises tabe one of the best ever. Prof. Bran son stated the purpose of the club to advertise North "Carolina and gave the club a good send-off by making a number, of invalua ble suggestions as .to how it should be conducted and for what it should stand.. Besides this Prof. Branson offered a number of very fine topics which can be worked up by various members of the club. These topics cover Iverv well manv of the economic 1 problems with which the State ' has to deal, such as mineral and timber resources, water power 'and manufactures, soils and sea ' suns. It is Prof. Branson's idea to have these topics subdivided in such a way that each member of the club will have a good sub ject to work upon, which will not only be of value to the Universi ty students and members of the club, but will be of interest to counties, State and country at large. By this means the club aims to further iu North Carolina for home seekers, and those in terested in present economic problems. Growing from a mere handful of members, the club now has over sixty members, each interest ed in making the club a success. In less than a year, it has work ed out many problems which have received publication in a great many of the State publications and newspapers, and which have rendered valuable help to those interested in the economic prob lems confronting North Carolina. , .

For Carolina Boys DR. BROWN GIVES TALKS Lectcres on Ideals, Accom plishment and Bible Study Dr. O. E. Brown, Professor of Religions at Vanderbilt Universi ty, invited by the Y. M. C. to lecture here, spoke to the students in Chapel Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights. Friday night he spoke on "The Principles That Should Guide a Man in College Life;" Saturday night on "Liv ing Up With Christian Forces;" Saturday night he stressed the value of Bible study. Dr. Brown's first speech was one dealing with ideals and prin ciples. The substance of his talk was in part this: A college career is no episode in a man's life, but the place where he first has free ' will and therefore where he begins first to build principles to stay with him through life. He should stick to his ideals and follow the "vision spleudid;" he should think out things for himself and act true to his conscience;" he should always be a helpful factor in his community; should prepare himself for service to society and should line up with God. On the second night Dr. Brown gave some "don'ts." To sum up, he said. Don't be a snob, dod't be a bookworm, a miser of your knowledge and faculties, but line up with the active Christian forces in the woild, ami accom plish. In the final address of his se ries, Dr. Brown presented to a good audience in a masterly man ner the value of Bible study. The address was opened with the thought that the Bible is the greatest strengthening agency that man has, and that it has been the greatest force in the building of the greatest nations men and civilization that the world has ever knowu. : - 1112 Registered The registration Thursday morning at 9 o'clock had reached 1112.

MILK SHAKES PICK QUAKES--2 NEW MOVIE MANSIONS Bruce Stroud Builds Fine New Picture Show Brockwell Doing Likewise PICTURE IT TO YOURSELF More Pictures, Better Picture?, Five-Cent Pictures Two new film-flickering taler- nacles, canned-drama palaces, emporiums for kiuodrome exhi bitions, will soon be flip-flapping- away right merrily in -Chapel Hill, in addition to old Pickwic'.. Picture it to yourself. Impossi ble? Well, its so. From Arabian Nights rumor; and Baron Munchansen sp di lations the following facts 1 :i't been painstakingly gleaned: WTithin 60 days Messrs. Str u I and Robinson will put in operation a new movie show costing $5, iK 0, and having a seating capacity ol 480. It will be located back of the B. B. Auto Station where ground is already being broken up in preparation of its erection. It will be 50 by 100 feet; ti e Or ange Lumber Company b: s the contract. On the ground floor will be the picture show and a garage; the upper story will lime rooms for rent fitted out wiih running water and the latest con. veniences. The erection of this new'pic- ture show will naturally 1 it Mr. S. J. Brockwell, owner f. the; Pickwick, a hard blow. But he will rather burst the proverbial gallows than be outdone and is reported as saying that he will spend more than any five tlious. and rather than be run out of business. Therefore he is going to build another picture house himself. It will be exactl) t he west of the B. B. Auto Station, will have an auditorium 24 by 130 feet and will seat 600. It will be a 5 cent show, and will commence to dispense joy among the student body about tl.e time of the Christmas holidays. The picture show will not All the whole building. In a few words, Mr. Brockwell expects to have a combination movie, cafe, cigar stand, garage, dormitory, etc. running in full blast next floor to his competitor's theatre. Pickwick will continue to run as usual. Should these pictorial phantasies be realized an excep tional opportunity will be pre sented to students for the culti vation of an appreciation of the higher forms of amusmeut and the development of the aesthetic sense generally. And what though our culture may be called nickel-plated? We shall have bad a feast of films.
