Ve . predict that thefy will , come home victorious everybody, in, college, for that matter, does that. .. , Dr. ' George Tayloe Winston, President cf the; University, was , 41 years .old) Iastf Thursday. He ; . celebrated the event, by giving an elegant entertainment in the Gym nasium hall of the Universitv to the students of the University , and his any friends from the town and .. surrounding, country; . University Day and Drs Winston's, birthday fell on. the same, date f ' the 12th of October. Nearly all the students say tnat in - the future , they hope the doctor will have two birthdays per year, and that ; he -will give a . reception both days The Univer-, sity and the. State is proud of the career of the young president oi this great institution, and hope for him numerous happy returns of his . natal day. u:',-vu The old University yell, which has served its time and purpose, has become superannuated and worn out. It was never a very melodious yell, and ladked something which - u j.i , 110 one couiu uexerrnine. ; 11 was long enough; it took enough wind to run a cyclone to yell it; it was monstrous; it was something like a yell that one would expect to hear from a prep school; but it never had the dignity of a college yell. ; There fore we are pleased to hear the new yell is being warmly received by the students. , The new yell is: ' 'Hackie t 'r Hackie ! ! , ; Hackie ! ! Sis Boom Bah! Carolina! Caro lina! Rah! Kah!! Rah Hi : , Last year THE Tar HEEL, , had nearly 300 subscribers in college, 'this year thehumher of men who take itdoes not exceed 125. This is a very good showing for t college spirit. . i ne editors do notfwant to force a man to take it, but they do think that it. should be patronized more than it is. We have nearly 400 students at the University, and cf this number at least 300 ought to take it. ) We cannot succeed uri less the students take the interest in it they should. The paper is run by the Athletic Association, and all that it makes over expenses goes to the Association'. The; As sociation' is now several', hundred dollars in debt, and this' could be very easely paid off if ever student would take the paper. There are some students in; col lege who are able yto take "The Tar Heel; but when asked to sub scribe they say why, I can read so and so's. Why a man that will do that, we do not wan't on bur sub scription list, he is too mean to have his name Written ' by decent people.- It is riot absolutely neces sary for the salvation and success of the paper that you take it, but it certainly would show a better col lege spirit if you would do it. ' Let every student in' the ' University who has a desrire to see the Uni versity upbuild and take its place among the leading Universities of the land, do at least as much as ; to recognize its weekly expornent, so that it will be able to tell the out side world what we are ; doing' here. The Editor in Chief would a.iin call the attention rfrthe , associate Editors that it is imperative that they should hand their copy in b" Monday morning. THE Tar HlIEL, is not a large paper, but the , work of getting it out is too much for one man, and especially for one so poor ly equipped as the Editor-in-Chief; In the future it is ' hoped that all' LIBRARY IMPROVEMENTS During the past few months' the library received such numerous ad ditions that there are now eight thousand volumnes without shelf room, and lying stacked up in sun dry corners and alcoves. To pro vide for these books, including the very valuable Iibraryiof the late Dr. Thos. Wood of Wilmington, the authorities have caused to be .pur chased several iron frame cases. These will be placed where now stand the two large centre - tables and beside rendering useful - service will be of real ornament to the al ready attractive library equipment; It'is the further intention we hear,' to remove entirely the old wooden shelves arid substitute these new style rests.- Surely' we are progressing.- ' '.;;":'; '-V:d i D.

The foot ball season has again opened up in all its glory and the question that would naturally agi tate the placid breast of a "Varsity marris "Where will our teani be at the final roll call ?" Well, ai mat ters now stand, this; js a very .hard problem to solve. We certainly have "got this year some of the finest sort of material but the boys dc ! not seem fully inspired.' The team naturally lacks" snap and vim, both of which are characteristics at our last: ysar's game.1 Why don't the. fellows go into. the game with all their souls and if they would the life of the team could be-chronicled in a . few; words; iWe i would -then be' sure of success.
