Everywhere the marks of chafing are distressingly ap parent. Somewhere about the camp us is a germ insideous and irksome that is affecting the whole Univer sity with a disease that has flung ns all into an orgy of ill controlled scratching. Great ulcers of disease have blistered out of clean and healthy parts of campus life. The great vital body of the Univer tty m as alive and sweet As ever in its history but the skin of it, the surface, twitches with marks' of the itching that has been stirred up by etcretiess of the genfe Smear th piate of public opinion aad place it under the microscope of pure thought and rub the, lenses clean of sentimentality and prejudice aad tinder the glass will come the festered editorial policy of the Car olina Magazine. The literary publication of th University has changed during the last few months during the editor ship of Mr. Horner from a calm and representative mirrow of literary activity and thought to a rabid journal of intolerance and prejudice, The loss of a literary magazine on the campus was in itself an unfor tunate thing, but that that magazine should become the forum of the acrid bitternesses of a little man, is a tragedy. Such caustic mouthing of platitudes that irritate without healing is like probing a wound with a rusty finger nail file. Mr. Horner snarls at the "Small Washed" and catching his shadow from the flame of his bitterness feels himself the baying leader of horde of revolt which lie calls the "rraat unwashed." , . Pitiful is the lone howling out of he open night, that failing to frighten men yet disturbs- the' quiet of their peacef ulness slowly builded and rooted in firm f oundatidns. evils furnished the theme tor lany bull sessions and the question of com pulsory laundry added much to the vagaries of campus conversation. So we sang our mighty, indignant song and the laundry sputtered rather fu tilly for a little before it at last be. gan to sing. The laundry has risen under the curses of the campus to a point where the college and community it ready to give it its blessing and as the first week bt last quarter was devoted to curses we think that as an anniver sary the firs! of this quarter should be devtotdd to praise. The laundry has so far advanced in the few -short month since it was first installed here thai new it is doing regularly and well the wash ing of the student body and hag in creased it field by taking now the laundry of the townspeople. Beyond that it would increase its activity by establishing a pressing due for the whole student body. At the present moment a petition is being signed by members o! the student body to make rare the reality of this project. Such a thing would be excellent for the men of the University who are now sending their clothes to the various pressing clubs where they re ceive very uncertain treatment. B hind the laundry and its hew propo sition the student body will stand with a faith that has been born of experience and as a token of it The Tar Heel for the student body would like to express its thanks to Mr. Paul, sen for the very remarkable achieve' ment of the University laundry.

Ain't it fine to be back? And find out that you made a six on that course when you thought that you had captured a three? But don't let that worry you, those New Year resolutions that you made will cause you to make the honor roll from now on. Like Hell. Pack in the first of November one dear brother checked out of school one of his professors turned in grade of three on his course. - Mail us your check for five and we will, give you the name of the course. , uon i inings jook natural! Even the weather is doing its part to give us those home again blues. You'll get used to probation in time, -why we have even got to the point where we are used to war tax. The laundry problem again. If you owed the cleanery money, you kicked, and if you got any returned. you were ashamed of hot being as neat as the average. Did you learn any Christmas? new dances There is a new one called "Dump mg the Garbage," it ain't nothing else but the stuff. We saw in the papers that there is going to be a committee formed to go into the "W. T. Johnston Case." Reminds us of a high school de bate on the question, "Resolve, That the IT. S. was1 justified in fighting Germany." THANKS TO THE LAUNDRY Last fall when we cast at the feet of the treasurer eight and one-half silver disks thai had engraven there on u succinct statement -of our na tional religion and political philosophy for the weekly cleansing of our seven or less changes of raiment somehow we felt in our suspicious thrifty sonls that we were being crooked. Indeed we felt sure of it when the green sock with the red stripes failed to come back in the brown bundle. Most of us were filled with a deep feeling of righteous indignation and either wrote bitter words to the Tar Heel or expressed ourselves venomously to roommates. And so for the first two or three" Weeks V wore dirty shirts and cursed. The laundry was si fluke and the University was trying Co put over' another money-making scheme with poor results. So beginning: of the last quarter with. It would take some considerable several committees to erase that 7 to 3 score. After spending a quiet Christmas, don't let the -wild life of the Hill get your goat. Take if on gradually. How was the old girl this time, still loving you? The Christmas season.. Stores crowded with people buying gifts for other people who don't want them. Air fowl with the breath and bodies of people. Tired shop girls waiting on tired customers. Trinkets, tinsel, baubles, colored cards, tissue paper and ribbons. High prices. Exhaust ed mail clerks. Late trains. In sincere greetings. Stamps to be licked. Christmas presents. Green ties, Pen wipers. Diaries, Patent pencils. ; Egg nog made from corn liquor. Christmas dinner. A gorged stomach. A tree. BroTceit toys. Col ored paper. Bills. All of which Is intended to cele brate the Birth of Christ. It seems that the Shop owners with' their trip pie prices are the greatest gainer from this commemoration. B. T. Nineteen-twenty-two is here. We do not pretend to be giving this as news but rather as food for thought. This can be the best year that the University has ever had if we all pull together. That interesting fact was equally true of last year and the year before that, etc., but it is the usual thing to remind everybody of it and who are we to turn up our nose at the great God custom? B. T. AT THE PICKWICK by Mme. Elinor Glynn, is included in spends a part of his time here and "The Great Moment," in which the a part in Raleigh. He will return beautiful Gloria Swanson makes her to that city in a few days. i i t j. -a m V- ! aeoui as a paramount star, ww do On Tuesday evening the Pick will presented at the "Pick" on Monday In this story Miss Swanson is seen as the half Gypsy daughter of an present Margareta Fisher in "Pay- evening, the 19th. ment Guaranteed," a drama of ro mance and intrigue in five acts. Emily, portrayed by Miss Fisher, ' English lord, whose father fears her is able to see no flaws in the man! in strict Seclusion, fearing that her to whom she is engaged, Harry Fen- mother's nomadic Instincts will as ton. a "hieh finance broker." Even sert themselves over the subdued When he compromises her good name , English culture. Later, however, on socially she troves that "love Is trip to America, the girt falls in The college physician was in chapel the other day, his text was "Cleanli ness is Next to Godliness," and the 'Doc" evidently thinks that this is a most devilish community. And af ter looking all around to see if the coast was clear, our beloved M. D. vpuchsafed the startling information that not much more water per capita flows over the gentle hills and through the pleasant vallies of fem inity, than dashes down the rocky streams and seathing cataracts of masculinity. Evidently the doctor's war experience has enabled him to See the truth through all sorts of Camouflages from Hoyt's to Coty's. B. T. Do you remember the old master piece that went like thist? There was a youhs? lady naftied " Menus, i ' : ' Who went to a ball dressed as Venus. But her hostess demurred At her costume absurd, And fetched her a leaf front the green-h'us. The modern ydiing flapper would most likely put the leaf over one Of her ears. B. T., Sr. The other day a young lady asked us why it was that though the" aver age male made valient efforts to heck" (pardon the vulgar phrase, is so expressive) everythine in sight, he never cared for those whom he had Don Juaned with success. Having heard this question often We have figured out. this answer: The modern social relation between young men and young ladies is a friendly war. The male tries to brake down the defense of the female and plant his lips in the vicinity of her mouth. The lady is skilled by experience, or intuition, to frustrate the attack, the blind." Fenton tries to negotiate a loan from Stephen Strange, the mil lionaire, to prevent his business fail ure. The deal depends upon the for feiture of Emily's honor and good name, but that does not deter Fenton. Strange permits Fenton to put through his scheme, willing to be party to it in order to awaken Emily to Fento'n's true character. His own genuine love for her precipitates the climax and Emily finally turns to the man who is worthy 6f her. The chief attraction for WedneS day evenme will be Alice Lake in John Fleming Wilson's "Unchartered Seas," directed by Wesley Buggies.- Briefly, the story deals with Lu cretia Eastman, whose husband is a moral derelict, addicted to opium and loose women. Lucretia's cup of dis gust brims over at last, but Tom's father entreats her to give him one last chance. The test is the finding of a deserted steamship, loaded with ten millions of Klondike gold. Tom is given a seaworthy craft, and a rotting vessel, manned with desper adoes, is foisted on Frank Under7 wood who loves Lucretia and is loved by her. The cowardice of one, and the contage of the other, as they go through Echring Straits leads to the heart clutching climax. The support ing cast includes Rudolph Valentino, who scored such a remarkable suc cess in "The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse." What may well be described as a classic of the silent drama is Mar shal Neilan's spectacular, colorful and thrilling production, "Bob Hamp ton of Placer," which will be shown on the screen of the Pickwick Thurs day evening. One of the most picturesque periods of American tilstory figures in "Bob Hampton of Placer" name ly, the Indian uprisings which fol lowed the Civil war. And In the cli max td this production, General Cus ter's faittous" last stand against the Sioux is reproduced And immortal ized on the screen in a most fascinat ing and dramatic manner. Inter- love with a ybuhg mining engineer, is bitten by a rattle-shake and taken by him to his mountain cabin. There, intoxicated from the whiskey which he had given her as an antidote, she feels the Gypsy spell and brings about a situation which results in many dramatic and highly emotional episodes. Milton Sills plays the leading sup porting role, Sain Wood directed and the story was picturized by Monte M. Katterjohn.
