THE T A II HEEL
The Campus
,. By Joe Jones
Our campus is essentially a creature
of moods. . It lives and moves and
has its; being in varying qualities of
the gamut from ecstasy to despair.
It is changeable as the weather and
as sudden in its variations.
, There is the homecoming campus
of September; when friends are hand-to-hand
in greeting; when hearts are
light and optimistic; when freshmen
are the veriest initiates, happy and
bewildered at once. This, is the glad,
hopeful, bustling campus.
Then we have the humdrum every
day campus; interesting or boring,
according to what one makes of it.
Its days and hours are oiled with the
lubricant of routine, making theni to
run smoothly, though somewhat mon
otonously. This is the campus of
work, play, eat, sleep; work, play,
eat, sleep.
There is the carefree, hilarious
campus of big footballday with its
accompanying dances. This is the
collegiate Mardi gras, dryland regat
ta, and Feast of Xianterns combined.
Whether in victory or in defeat it is
given over to uncurbed merrymaking.
Its rumbling crowds, its hawkers
crying their wares, its twenty-two
knights jousting in the bloody lists,
its sound of revelry by night, all hark
back to the medieval tournament
day. It is the campus in its gayest
gala attire. . Some love it best of all.
There is the red-eyed campus of
exam week work, work, work; bone,
bone, bone; grind, grind, grind. One
may sense the grim depressive spirit
in the very air. This campus is in
deadly earnest, stern and quiet-mouth
ed- Its back is against the wall, and
it has forgotten all save staring down
the 'wolves of failure and ineomple
tion. It is a fitful sleeper with dark
circles under its eyes. It has no
lovers.

But there is one which few sons of
Carolina have come upon, and which
is hard to let slip by with only, pass
ing mention. . This is the mood of the
quiet and deserted campus which'
hovers over the Hill for a fortnight
at Christmastime. Remaining on the
Hill during the midwinter holidays
is a distinct adventure, this thing of
finding solitude where before one has
known only irksome turmoil. The
complete change from perpetual con
fusion to serenity in one's habitual
haunts is more profoundly soothing
than is the same change of atmos
phere accompanied by a change of
surroundings. It is like something
strangely square to forest without
moving a step. There is something
strangely new about a suddenly
peaceful Chapel Hill, a suddenly quiet
campus. -
Quadrangles silent and dark save
for starlight and moonlight are to be
remembered longer than quadrangles
noisy with inmates and ablaze with
study lamps. Old oaks and august
buildings deserted and peaceful, lie
closer in the heart than a campus
active and agog. But this, no doubt,
is a matter of introspection.
Class To Celebrate
Fiftieth Anniversary
TTnivrsitv Graduates of 1789 Will
Have Reunion at Commencement.
One of the most interesting events
scheduled for the University com
mencement this spring is a reunion
of the class of 1879, which was the
first four year, class to graduate af
ter the reopening of the University
in 1875. In this class upon gradua
tion there were eleven members, and
when the seven surviving members
meet here in June they will be cele
brating the fiftieth anniversary o:
their class.

JrMn M Mannine' Durham: Dr
Richard B. Henderson, Franklinton
William T. Will. Faison: Alvah C
Springs. Charlotte; Judge Rober
W. Winston, Chapel Hill, and Judge
Francis D. Winston, Windsor.
tVim-a will be a meetinf? of the
class held next Monday at the Man
Park hotel in Raleiirh for the

Interesting Prcgram Including
Address on Timely Topic
Has Been Planned.
The Cercle Francais will hold its
next . meeting in the " social room of
the Baptist Church Friday evening,
February 8, at 7:30. An attractive
program is being planned. This will
include an address on some timely
or interesting topic given by Dr. J.
C. Lyons. Following the talk, a quar
tet made up of members of the
French department will sing some
popular songs from French "musical
comedies, written by Maurice Cheva
lier, -and, Mile. Mistinguette. This
feature of the program has been
postponed from .... previous meetings
because those taking part were not
able to meet, at the same time. -It is
certain, however, that they will be
present Friday. In addition to the
singing," a few selections from fa
mous operas as well as some lighter
French songs will be heard through
the medium of- a victrola.
It us urged that more conversation
in French be indulged in by those
attending the meetings. This would
not only enliven the atmosphere, but
would greatly aid each one who
makes an attempt to express himself
in the language. One should try to
speak more French and come to the
meeting with more of a vocabulary
than "Bon soir" and Bonne nuit."

Campus Beauty.
The publication of several books
hat were announced in the Fall list
was delayed but are now on sale.
These books are:
"Liberty in the Modern World" by
George Bryan Logan, Jr. Mr. Logan
was a former Research Librarian at
the University of North Carolina, and
he held that position until his death
December a year ago.
"Welfare Work in Mill Villages" by
Harriet L. Herring. This book con-
ains the story of extra-mill activi
ties in North Carolina. It deals with
problems connected with the Mills
and Churches, mills and schools, and
discusses the economic activities of the
people of North Carolina.
"Public Poor Relief in North Caro
ina" by Roy M. Brown. How North
Carolina organizes and administers
its public poor relief and what things
it might do differently such is the
scope of this carefully , documented
volume. It grew out of the author's
association with the State Board of
Charities and Public Welfare, for
which he made his original survey in
1925. His analysis . of the develop
ment of public poor relief in the state
from colonial times to the present
makes a needed addition to our know
ledge of public welfare. This book
compares North Carolina and Vir
ginia in this relief work and explains
some changes that have been, and are
being made in the relief work. It
shows the tendency to depart from
poor houses by converting them into
hospitals. , "
Debate Class Will
Hold Meeting Tonight
The debate class will hold its week
ly meeting tonight at 7:30 in 201
Murphey. The query to be discussed
is: Resolved that the United States
should enter the World Court with
out reservations." This question will
be used in coming contests with Em
ory University and possibly the Uni
versity of Texas. '
The meeting will be somewhat dif
ferent from the usual type of debate
class meetings, as two members of
the Law School faculty will conduct
a general discussion. Usually the
lecture method is ''used.
Bishop Mouzon To
Speak Here Sunday
Bishop Edwin D. Mouzon, of Char
lotte, will preach at the Chapel Hill
Methodist church next Sunday morn
ing at 11 o'clock. Bishop Mouzon is
in charge of the third Episcopal dis
trict comprising North Carolina and
South Carolina. This is his first
sermon in Chapel Hill.
As a result of a debate try-out held
Monday night two teams were chos-
en to represent the University of
North Carolina in forensic combat
with Marquette University and the
University of the South. J. C. Wil
liams, of Linden, and E. H. Whitley,
of Pantego compose the affirmative
team which will debate with a team
representing the University of the
South at Sewanee, Tenn., on the night
of March 2.
W. W. Speight of Spring Hope, J
C. Harris of Inez, and H. H. Hob
good of Bunn compose the negative
team which will vie with a team rep
resenting Marquette University at
Chapel Hill on the night of February
18. .
The query to be used in both con
tests is "Resolved that the public
should own and operate the hydro
electric .power plants of the United
States."
"The Carolina campus, said to be
the most beautiful in the south, is be
ing ruined by the many paths that
are being beaten across the grass,
said Mac Grey, president of the Y.
M. C. A. in a chapel talk Tuesday
morning. "The faculty or the grounds
committee cannot make us keep off
the grass. The thing depends en
tirely on the students."
In urging the Freshmen ,to try to
create a sentiment for" keeping off
the grass, Grey said that the Fresh
men are the ones who have not yet
formed their habits of campus ac
tions, and that they better than any
other class can put the proposition
across because they will be here for
three years more.
"At one time there was a rule that
anyone who walked on the grass paid
a fine of a dollar, but that rule was
removed when it was thought that
the students had 'enough pride in the
campus to stay off the grass of their
own accord. This pride was shown
for a while, but the spirit of it has
died down, and now there are paths
across almost all of the grass plots
on the' campus. ... ;
Grey also said that other schools
have beautiful grass that is kept in
such a condition by the spirit of the
students. At Davidson and at the
University of Virginia, if anyone
walks on the grass, someone shouts
at him? The result is that the grass
is always well kept. What is needed
here is a spirit similar to that at
these two schools.

Lo an outsider, the time and trouble taken to
produce a Chesterfield might seem as unneces
sary as the sabre-scars so proudly worn by
students of pre-war Heidelberg. But popularity
is mucli the same the world over you don't
get it for nothing. ,
But any short-cuts in the time it takes to
cure and mellow the Chesterfield tobaccos, or
one step the less in blending and balancing them
would end up in something that wasn't
Chesterfield. And you wouldn't like that.
So we'll; stick to our old systemgetting the
right tobaccos, blending them the Chesterfield
way, never sacrificing character body, flavor to
mere mildness.
We want to keep our popularity, now that
we've earned it and we know no better way
than to keep on earning it!
