C A.'S piggly wiggly honor table is one of tile greatest bargains that has ever appeared there. If the advertisement carries truth with it, then there's a course credit in Chem istry 13 awaiting anyone who'll fork over two-bits. The poster says, "Pass Chemistry 13, Spots, 25c, On Honor". There are two sheets of spot questions, neat ly printed and clipped together. We suppose that this is a self help venture but, begorra, it's about the most unusual stunt in that line that's been pulled up here. The open vendoring of " such questions, within two weeks after a course gets under way, gives rise to some mighty interesting speculation on colleges and college students. We should think the professor con ducting the course would resent such a come-to-pass and would be mighty careful to ask none of the spots. Any how, figuring on a 25c basis, a uni versity degree carrying with it 30 courses is worth exactly $9.00 Hur rah for higher education. DON'T EXPECT TOO MUCH The Greensboro .JSfexvt views with mock horror the use of the Austra lian ballot in the recent student election. The Gate City paper, in fact, fears that some of the students here may want to introduce the sys tem into the state elections when they shall have put away their child hood. ' But we don't expect too much to be acomplished here. Students ab sorb : new notions quicker than the citizen who has become set in his ways. But the process , here isn't much faster. Almost every last one , of the students is a bona fide chip off the old block and he differs little from the folks back home. One finds here much the same prejudices and customs as are found in the localities from which the student comes. Chapel Hill is really a sinal edi tion of North Carolina. Ideal con ditions under which to study and live put students a few jumps ahead of the state as a whole, but Chapel Hill is a very good reflection of the state For the first time the children of Chatham county were brought together March 29 in a production of Miss Ethel Rockwell's pageant, "Children of Old Carolina." Eight hundred children from all the schools in the county were sent to Hills lioro to take part in the massive pageant given at the natural theatre on the Oceo neechee farm. Three hundred of the costumes were home made, and the rest were furnished by Miller, of New York and Philadelphia. Miss Mabel Evans, of Mantea, former superintendent of the schools in Dare county, who is now do ing graduate work in the University, took churge of the direction of the pa geant. Miss Evans will be remembered for her direction of "The Lost Colony," which was filmed on Roanake Island and which has been shown throughout this and other states. She. was ably assisted by Miss Anne-Ruth Metcalf, of the So ciology Department, and by the teachers of the Chatham county schools. The pageant was a huge success and is quite an accomplishment for the schools in the county and a 'personal triumph for the directing ability of Miss Evans. Playmakers Planning to Present Play in French . . j("S$ Tfc8' Hg Uefej Pet The Playmakers are attempting quite a novel departure from custom this spring in giving "Le Maladre Imagaire" by by Moliere on the 2r-22 of May in the Theatre building. The play will be spoken in French and will be directed by Professor Holmes of the French de I partment Professor Holmes will play the leading part of Argon, which is the same part that Moliere was playing at the time of his death. Professor Holmes played the part of Argon at the University of Pennsylva nia, where he directed this and otheT French plays. He has studied the French Theatre in Paris, and the public is as sured a delightful evening in the perfor mance of "Le Malade Imagaire" and something that is entirely different. Sev eral other members of the French De partment will also take part in the production. CHAPEL HILL GIRLS NINE TO PLAY MEBANE TEAM The girls baseball team of Chapel Hill High play their initial game with the Mebane "lassies" today at Mebane. For several weeks Miss Atkinson the High School athletic director has been getting them in form, limbering up the batters and getting the pitchers' in shape. Their spring workouts have consisted of a series of lessons underhand and other requisites of the indoor- rules, which they use. Next week the Mebane players come here for a game with the Chapel Hill team. The game' will be played in the high school tin can. The exact date has not been made as yet. The next game to be played here will be interesting especially, to those who like girl's sports. The team will show better form than in the first game of the season. But that time they will carry along better the training of arm wielding which the director has given them. , The first issue of the Ex-lIi-Y will be published Friday, April 16. 1 : Calenbar Thursday, April 15 Night school debating starts. : 2:00 p.m. Geology Club meeting, New East. 7:30 p.m. Deutsche Verein meeting, Episcopal Parish House. . -: Friday, April 16. 3:00 p.m. High school track meet, Emerson Feld.

When Moral Yearnings Assert The outraged public throws exemplary fits when some free lancer pops up and tells them about their own sins. The pop in vox populi worked, but it picked up a hot coal when it meddled with Mr. Mencken and his April Mercury. And lie bus already started his come-back. Some day Mr. Mencken is likely to be squelched by intolerant public opinion- martyred to truth when the moral yearnings of rural communities assert themselves more fully. Then he will be kapoot, ausgespiel, blown up, busted and bedamned. Real Estate Art The Carolina Playmakers foster, nur ture,, and promote art but they can't hold thsir best men. It was unfortunate when their manager decided that there was more art in the dollar mark than in the mask, and sneaked out backstage and went off into western Carolina and started cutting up the earth to suit the purchaser. But real estate is so fasci nating; and has art there too a very gentle art. Tenderness of Nature Spring is a mood as well as a season. It starts the roots of new hopes and as pirations in the mind as well as the sap from the roots in the ground. There is a quicker leap of life, and Nature seems to stir with a kind of tenderness. New resolves take root as well. Such as the one to "study hard after Easter and make the Spring quarter count for some thing." . Ketriev or React Since the work of moral regeneration has been going on on the campus during the long period of banned dances, the hops to come off shortly should be as pure as a box party at Turkey Ridge School on Saturday night. But has the said moral regeneration been sufficiently thorough, or will there perhaps be a reaction? We shall see shortly, sir. Ideal of A Day If I had the power to remake men and women at a stroke, I would not know what to do with them, except that I would ask for more pretty women and more friendly men. I would ask the men to let me alone and take me for what I am. . I would ask the women to be everlastingly charming. - Then I would go about my business, quite without Messianic delusions, living today, fully and fearlessly, without moralistic com punctions. Independence! Walter H. Page once said that there had been enough brains and character wasted in North Carolina in the last one hundred years to have managed the civi lized globe. Wasted ! Indeed, but the people lived simply and raised big- hearted kindly children. They have kept open house and independence and have envied no man. There are, in little towns in North Carolina, those who have the straight strain of Anglo-Saxon breed- gentle, brave men who might have ruled a world and are content to govern a family.. Wasted? Not quite. Develop ment is coming surely and everybody will be educated. Perhaps when North Car- oliniuns are "nationalized", they will go out and conquer by bigness. And in the meantime, thank Heaven for the waste. Self -Confidence College students, looking upon all things as equally fair targets for their flippancy, froth and levity, yet are per haps the most easily deceived and the most impressionable group of persons to be found. Much of their cynicism is sim ply a method of escaping truths and ex alting their own egoes. Sometimes this builds up self-confidence, which is a. val uable thing to carry away from college. It is perhaps the biggest- thing ,we can carry away. y f O Temporal - A curse on the lamenessof a pen! One would forever write abrttt things he does not want to write about, Or else he is palsied In his efforts to 'deduce inter est from practical things. The big, surg ing things In our aspiring souls are dumb. I cannot write. Words arc too precious to profane by misuse. This is toe last brew of the Melting Pot It hai been filled with everything from baldtrdash to mediocre literatures cock-suretiel' and contradictions; padded sentiment and puerile observations for a year now. But nevertheless, they have been the emanations of a soul kindly disposed to ward the whole world. The Assfetant Ed. gladly steps aside for his succrw-or, conferring upon hira nothing but sy);H thetic good wishes. Taps have souiitli'd. C. W. B.
