T. Swenning, associate profes sor of business administration will speak on "Scientific Person nel Management." In his talk Dr. Schwenning, who has been intensely inter ested in personnel "work for many years, will; discuss the question of whether or' not mod ern personnel management is paternalistic. This question is one that has come 'to the fore during the many recent discus sions of the relations between labor and industry-' ' ' : Dr. Schwenning is Well quali fied to speak on this subject, for he was director of" he industrial relations department of Spring field College, Springfield, Mass., for four years, and for several years he has spent his summers visiting different industries to obtain first-hand information concerning the labor relations in them. ' During the year 1925-1926 Mr. Schwenning was abroad . doing research work on labor relations in both Europe and China. This period of research work was sponsored by the Rockefellow, Foundation. ; In addition to spending some time in European countries and in China, Dr. Schwenning spent a month at the International La bor office of the League of Na tions at Geneva. During the past year Mr. Schwenning has done research work on the subject of ' pater nalism in the southern' indus tries, including textiles. A paper summarizing this work was pre sented by Mr. Schwenning be fore the North Carolina Club at one of its recent meetings. '' The subject oh which ne will speak this evening is related to the general topic of paternalism in that he will discussT the ques tion previously mentioned, whether or not modern ' person nel management is paternalis tic. - V' " : Personnel management, on one . branch of which Mr. Schwenning will speak this eve ning, is one of the several fields of work in which upperclassmen in the school of commerce can specialize. Dr. Schwenning is instructor of the courses in per sonnel work as well as of those in business administration. The officers oT the society state that the meeting will last only one hour, beginning at 7 o'clock. As the meetings of the Taylor Society are open to the public, anyone who is interested in the topic to be discussed1 this evening is invited to attend. During the remainder of the quarter there will be two more meetings of the 'group. At one of these E. S. Draper, a land scape architect of Charlotte will speak on the planning of cotton mill villages, and at the other Thorndike Saville, professor of hydraulic and sanitary engineer ing, will present one phase of power plant management.

Magill, secre tary of the students' southern region of the Y, which was fol lowed by a speech of Miss Smith, national secretary of the Y. W. C.

EASTMAN KODAKS FOR SCHOOL KIDS Millions of American children whose 12th birthdays occur some time this year are anxious ly awaiting Thursday, May 1, when the Eastman Kodak Com pany's gigantic offer of 500,000 free cameras goes into effect. The half -million cameras have been distributed among the thousands of Eastman dealers! throughout the country and will be given to those children who become 12 years old this year, provided that the mother accom panies each child. Chapel Hill children will be among the fortunate ones, as both the University Book Store and Students' Supply Store are well-stocked vith the free cam eras. The motto of the day, ac cording to Eastman dealers, will be "first come, first served," until the supply is exhausted. Photo-Phone Will Be Demonstrated Here Infirmary List COUNCIL TAKES ACTION AGAINST CHECK OFFENSES . : (Continued from firH page) within 48 hours after he receives notice of the offense, he is auto matically put on probation. He is given ten days to make good the worthless check to which he signed his name, and if he does not attend to the matter by the expiration of this time, he is suspended and must report to the student council. By more, stringent dealings with bad check offenders the new student council in cooperation with Mr. Williams hopes to re duce to as few as possible the number of students who are in this way careless with their finances, j Frequently Mr. Wil liams receives letters from many different business organizations asking aid in collectings bills which have been made by their acceptance of college boys' checks. Quite a few students would be much embarrassed if they should head their names in cases like the following : The Philadelphia Neckwear Com pany wrote a letter to Dr. Harry W. Chase, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, N. C, stating that Mr. Blank, a stu dent in his university, had giv en that firm a bad check and that the company would appreciate it very much if he would attend to the matter ; the manager of a certain hotel in New York City wrote the following to Dean Bradshaw: "I thought the stu dents of the University of North Carolina were all honest, upright and decent fellows who did not rely on a working man to pay their expenses when they come to New York." - The General Electric Company will give a demonstration of its photo-phone Friday night, May 2, in 205 Phillips hall. The public will be permitted to view the demonstration. A representative of the Phila- deipma omce 01 tne company will show the apparatus to all who may be interested. The photo-phone is the actual equip ment which is used to produce and reproduce sound pictures. The unique feature of the ap paratus to be demonstrated is that there is no actual mechani cal production or reproduction of sound. All of this is done by light. The sound waves are recorded on the film and are re produced from that by light.

B Dike', T. W. Breman and Eliza beth Ried, confined with colds and O. S. Steinrich with a cut foot. The infirmary attendants were forced to send J. H. Shu- ford to Watts hospital in Dur ham Sunday evening because of an infected leg that had become too serious to be taken care of ANTI-TRUST LAWS SECOND SUBJECT PARKER LECTURES ' (Continued from first page) what it is presumed Congress intended to forbid. "The provision of the Clayton Act which forbids local differ ences in prices has not been the subject of any significant litiga tion that has reached the su preme court. A variation in sell ing prices in different localities that is not within the exception or pro vise of the Clayton Act itself, is, it seems to me, always in derogation of the public ..in terest." Mr. Parker explained that the Federal Trade Commission Act declares that unfair methods of competition are unlawful, and it gives to the Federal Trade Com mission the sole authority to en force that provision. "What constitutes unfair methods of competition, so far as precise definitions are concerned," he said, "is not and can never be All Women Love Him! s 1 1 " the most glamor- ; - J ' ous lover in Par-. v - s I j is!
