UNIVERSITY ATTENDANCE SHOWS NO MARKED DROP Winter Quarter Begins. With a Large Registration (Syeelal te The Star) CHAPEL HILL, Jan. 8.- With students still pouring in from incom ing trains and automobiles, and with long lines in front of the offices of Dr. T. J. T7ilson, Jr., registrar, and J. A. Warren, treasurer, the University of North Carolina began its winter quar ter yesterday. Although figures on registration were not available today, there is not yet any indication of any unusual falling off in attendance due to finan cial reasons. President Chase said that he had no reason to expect any thing but the slight normal decrease that always comes at the end of every quarter by reason of students dropping put for failure to keep up with their work. The large number of loan funds which the university has for needy students is thought to have held many men. Through the Deems, Martin, Holt, Hewitt, and Hogue funds the university has approximately $85,000, the interest on part of which and prin cipal of the remaining-is available for loans to students who need help and Treasurer Warren said today that no student who applied for aid has been refused it. General satisfaction . was expressed by the 750 students who eat at Swain Hall at the news that board there has been reduced from $25 to $22.50. The decreased cost of foodstuffs was as signed by the university authorities as the reason for the cut in prices. Swain Hall is run' on the cost plan and its price of $25 last fall was the highest it has ever charged, but with falling costs there is promise of still further reductions.

Sadi Lecointe, in a record breaking performance over v a four-kilometer course recently at Vil lacoublay when he averaged 194.5 miles per hour, negotiated one of the kilom eters in 11 seconds flat, or a little bet ter than 200 miles an hour. Lecointe drove the same Nieuport machine with which he won the Gordon Bennett cup last September. He went the whole distance 10 feet from the ground, -sweeping down from a great height before crossing the starting line each time. s "I didn't think one could feel, as cold as I did," Lecointe said when asked as to his impressions.

N. B. Josey Guano Company WILMINGTON, N. C. Of In terest to Prospective Users of Lumber On January 5th, 1921, we revised our current price list, making substantial almost all items, this being ihe fourth reduction since the price decline in lumber started. Our preseritTprices are based on replace ment valuer regardless of cost, plus what we deem neces sary to covet- cost of operation and a reasonable profit. Based on our own experience and from information furnished byj reliable contractors, we feel that we are justified in stating with the utmost sincerity that the efficiency of all classes of labor required in building has shown a remarkable improvement during the past few weeks. We are not endowed 'with the gift of prophecy but if f uture conditions do not prove that "NOW IS THE TIME TO BUILD," we will be greatly surprised. Clark-Lynch Lumber Co. WILMINGTON, N. C.
