It was one of those accidents which would not hap pen again in a thousand years. While the afiair Friday morn ing was horrible, to say the least, it was not much worse than what happened at A. & M. College a year or so ago. Hazing of any kind should be stopped, even if the colleges have to be closed. North Carolina is aroused as never before to the purpose that these hazings must end in the colleges and the StateUniversity, The death of young Rand has called direct attention again to the evil, and the college authori ties are called upon to see that it ends. Else they will be derelict in their duty.—Sundays News and Observer. A college should teach a young man to be fair and open and gen tlemanly in all of his dealings. There is nothing more co hardly than hazing. A bunch of fellows band together and take out a lone fellow student, and submit him to all forms of embarrassing antics, when not one in the crowd would not attempt the job by himself.—Charlotte News. CVilF : Il ’ The schools and colleges and the people generally over the State have expressed deep re gret for the very unfortunate affair, and great sympathy for the University and the bereaved relatives and friends in the tragic ending of young Rand. Presi dent Harper, in a communication to The News views the matter from a broad standpoint. “No amount of sympathy for those affected by this tragedy should darken our vision of the real issues involved. Hazing is wrong, not because young Rand is dead, but because it strikes at one of the primal constituents of gentility. A gentleman will not enjoy himself at the expense of another. College men should never engage in any sort of fun- making in which all the partici pants cannot enter with relish and equally enjoy. “It is no excuse for the hazers to say that the death of young Rand was accidental. It was accidental in the sense that it was not premeditated, but it was not accidental in the sense that young Rand was to blame for it. He was forced into the circum stances that led to his death. No citizen has the right to force an other to do anything, save by due process of law. “The way to stop hazing is to put in the hearts of the hazers a higher principle. The gospel of Christ, the golden rule, lived in individual hearts, will put an end to it, If the sentiment, tie spirit, of oar colleges shall be come essentially Christian we shall see an end of hazing. Haz ing cannot thrive in a Christian atmosphere.” What We Never Forget according to science, are the thing’s associated with our early home life, such as Bucklen’s Arnica Salve, that mother or grandmother used to cure our burns, scalds, sores, skin erup tions, cuts, sprains or bruises. Forty years of cures prove its merit. Un rivaled for piles, coughs or cold sores. Only 25 cents at Eubanks Drug Co. Rey. W. A. Stanbury, pastor of the Methodist church, preached to a large congregation Sunday night, the first time the church has been crowded since the stu dents departed for their homes the first of the summer. Mr. Stanbury referred to the hazing episode at the University Friday morning, in which Freshman Rand lost his life. He expressed himself freely on the hazing ques tion. He declared that the soph omores who engaged in the hazing were deserving of no sym pathy. That it was cowardly when they entered the room of freshmen under the cover of masks and that they were hardly human when they deserted the young man right on the verge of death, and lastly, the cold-blooded attitude which the four sopho mores had assumed since the death of Rand. Mr. Stanbury struck some keynotes which sounded loud in the ears of some of his congregation. He laid the blame of the awful tragedy and hazing in general to more deep- rooted causes. The authorities of the University, the citizenship of the town, and the student body, he thought, each must bear a portion of the responsibility of the crime, which was directly the work of hazing. Especially to the authorities of the University did he lay a share of the blame for allowing hazing, citing exam ples where the authorities could interfere with the practice of the barbarous custom. Themm- ister knows whereof he speaks and it seems that he does not mind whose ox is gored. New Home to be Built. The plans for the building of the new $60,000 home for the North Carolina Children’s Home Society, which will be located near Durham, have been ac cepted. The contract has been let to a Durham contractor, and work on the building is expected to begin at an early date. The site of the home will be on the Mineral Springs road, about two miles from Durham, and is an ideal location for such an institu tion. This will be a great thing for the homeless children of the State. W. B. Streter, of Greens boro, is manager of the home. New Fly Killer. A new discovery for the ex termination of flies, which may be effective in paving the way to complete eradication of the pests, has been tried at the Washington (D. C.) Star’s headquarters. The new method consists of charging the atmosphere with an alcoholic distillation of the long leaf pine. This is a discovery of Dr. Joseph C. Shepard, of Wilmington, N. C. The demonstration was given by Dr. L. J. Morel, who is Dr. Shepard’s representative. After a trap containing several hundred flies had been opened in the room. Dr. Morel dusted a small blower for charging the atmosphere with the mixture, and within a few minutes the insects began to drop to the floor lifeless, and it was not long before all were dead. Several water insects which .had been turned loose on the floor expired in the same way. It was explained that flies breathe through the pores in their bodies, and that the long leaf pine product closes the pores and thus stops respiration. It is stated that the mixture is not injurious to human beings, who, of course, breathe in an entirely different way. The health department at Washington may conduct experi ments to determine the effective ness of the preparation in de stroying the breeding places of flies. “Generally debilitated for years. Hadsickheadache, lacked ambition, was worn-out and all run-down. Burdock Blood Bit ters made me a well woman.”— Mrs. Chas. Freitoy, Moosup, Conn. Dogs killed twelve turkeys be longing to D. E. Belvin, near Fayetteville, a few days ago.
