port of the student body will encour
age those interested in debating to do
better and more splendid work.
It is maintained by some that the
University ought to pay the expenses
of the debating teams. This we believe
to be true, but the fact remains that
so far the University has never done so.
At the next meeting of the trustees aj
petition will be presented asKing that
such a provision be made in the Uni
versity budget, to become effective next
year. If this is granted (and we be
lieve that it will be) the student fee
will not be charged after this year.
The plan now under consideration is
more or less a temporary measure which,
if passed, will make possible the carry
ing out of a good debating program
this year.
The Tar Heel approves the proposi
tion, and asks the students or the Uni
versity to pass it, when presented to
them.

THE RED CROSS
Another year, and another Bed Cross
Boll Call. The same enthusiasm and
commendable spirit characteristic of the
leaders last year is in evidence, and
Carolina is responding in a fine manner.
Fraternities and various other or
ganizations last year went in for the
Bed Cross Boll Call a hundred per cent,
and the result was that Carolina's en
rollment was something admirable.
Frank Graham was here then to show
the students the light, and the good rec
ord was due largely to his efforts as
chairman of the Boll Call Committee.
Carolina cannot fall down this year.
Christmas time is coming and the Bed
Cross spirit is in the air. The virtue?
of this great organization and move
ment are too well known to mention.
No dollar could be more worthily spent
than for a Bed Cross membership, and
no pin should be worn more proudly
than the little Bed Cross button that
goes with one of these memberships.
The Bed Cross is no ordinary charity.
It is something big and fine and won
derful. Its influence is too far reach
ing to be estimated in mere statistics
SHOULD BE PASSED
ABOUT THE DEBATE FEE
To the Editor of the Tar Heel:
That the proposed plan for financing
the debating program is worthy of Bup
port and necessary for the future suc
cess of debating at the University is
well brought out in the clear-cut opin
ions of two representative students and
two members of the faculty who have
the best interests of the students at
heart. Following is a symposium of
student and faculty opinion:
"I am for the proposed plan of fin
ancing debates for four reasons. In
the first place, the amount is smali.
Any student can afford to pay 50 cents
a year for such an important college
activity. It only means giving up the
"Pick" two and a half times, or fore
going three or four packages of cignr-
ettes, or cutting out ten coca-colas. In
the second place, debating is a student
activity. It is run by the students, not
by the faculty or university adminis
tration. It represents one of the or
ganized features of student life and
depends entirely for its success upon
student support. In the third place,
the debating fee will place debating
upon the same footing as athletics. A
debating fee is just as imperative-as
an athletic fee. The reasons for the
two are the same. In the fourth place,
debating teams represent the wholi
student body and reflect credit or dis
credit on the whole University. All
students are obligated to finance ade
quately the activities of their repre
sentatives." Professor Walter J. Matherly.
"I am in favor of the proposed
change in the methods of support and
management of intercollegiate speak
ing contests and debates. Intercolle
giate orators and debaters should be
representative of the whole body of
students and should be supported by
the whole body of students."
Professor George McKie.
The wearing of caps by the freshmen
would probably do more to help class
organization, a thing which is sadly
lacking with them, than anything else
It would, be a great help to them in tha
annual soph-fresh snowball fight, too
Also, at the beginning of the yenr it
would do a lot toward getting the fresl
men acquainted with each other, for
naturally a man wants to mix with his
own classmates, and the wearing of
caps would enable a man to know which
are fresh and which are not.
On the other hand, I think it will
have a tendency to promote hazing,
something we don't want it to do. For
if a soph is not quite sure whether a
man is a freshman or not ho is a little
afraid to fool with him, but if he has
on a cap he is a mark for all eyes. But
you may say that anyone can tell a
fresh as soon as he lays eyes on him
anyway. But that is not always true.
Tor there are great numbers of fresh
who don't in the least look or act the
part. And I dare say that if the count
were taken, there would be as great i
percentage of upperclassmen who loo'v
and act like fresh as there are among
the first year men. If you aren't hit,
don't bark.
I am acquainted with the fresh cap
question, having attended a school
where it was the ruling of the student
body for them to wear them, and I
am not for it here. It will do no good
to have only a part of the freshmen
wearing them, and all will 'not wear
them until forced to do so. To force
them to do this will mean some sort
of punishment if they don't, and that
will mean hazing. The State laws de
fine hazing as "interfering in any way
with a man's personal liberty." So
the forcing of them to wear caps will
be hazing in itself. I do not say that
anyone IS trying to force this, but if
it is carried out, it seems to me that
it will have to be forced. '

SERMONS WE SEE
I'd rather see a sermon than hear one
any day;
I'd rather one should walk with me
than merely tell the way.
The eye's a better pupil and more will
ing than the ear;
Fine counsel is confusing, but exam
ple's always clear.
And the best of all the preachers are
the men who live their creeds,
For to see good put in action is what,
everybody needs.
I soon can learn to do it if you 'll let
me see it done;
I can watch your hands in action, but J
your tongue too fast may run,
And the lectures you deliver may be
very wise and true,
But I'd rather get my lessons by ob
serving what you do;
For I may misunderstand you and the
high advice you give,
But there's no misunderstanding how
you act and how you live.

EAT AT
THE ROYAL CAFE
The Most Up-to-Date Restaurant in the State
"EAT WHERE ALL THE CAROLINA BOYS EAT''
An open forum article in this issue
of the Tar Heel shows that all the rep
resentative men among the students
and in the faculty, who have been call
ed on for their opinion about the com
pulsory debate fee, are heartily in favor
of the plan. We have personally dis
cussed the matter with a number of
others, leaders in various campus ac
tivities, and so far we have not heard
a single dissenting opinion.
On the face of it is the plan is not
so inviting. Why should those who are
not in the least interested in debating
have to pay in support of this activity?
The answer is simply the old axiom,
that the individual must contribute for
the good of the whole. Debating is a
worthy activity, and Carolina has made
a particularly fine record in forensic
contests. Why should not all students
help to support the teams, just as they
help support the athletic teams? The
societies realize that they can no longer
bear the burden, and if Carolina is to
retain her enviable position in this field
of student activity the student body
must be willing to do its share in sup
port. Fifty cents a year, a little more than
fifteen cents a quarter, is a very small
sum, and this little assessment will
work no hardship on any student in
the University. But the sum total col
lected will enable Carolina to have the
most extensive and finest forensic
schedule she has ever had, and this sup-
"I favor the 50 cent fee because it
is the only present way to prevent a
curtailment of our already insufficient
debate program. Success in debate re
dounds to the credit of the University
as much, or more, than any other activ
ity. The fee may not be exactly th.i
proper way, and it is open to objection
but it is the only means to maintain
our forensic standard, and as a tempor
ary measure (until the trustees meet)
the student body can well afford to
forego a J' Pick" or two in order to
vote for this fee."
Tommy Turner.
"In my opinion, the proposed plan
for financing debating activities is an
exccleut measure in that it removes the
unjust burden from the literary socie
ties and it will result in stimulating in
terest in this important student activ
ity. The small fee suggested is well
within the ability ,of all students to
pay-" ..'.,.".' ,
Allan McGbee.
The above opinions constitute the
sentiment of careful and thorough
thinkers, and students may well con
sider their arguments before voting on
the measure. C. B. C.
ABOUT FBESHMAN CAPS
To the Editor of the Tar Heel: '
A lot has been said lately about whe
ther the Freshmen should wear caps
or not, and the argument still goes on,
I am going to try to set forth what, in
my mind, seems the most important
arguments on each side.
