mob of Virginia sympathizers who
crowded upon the field, we gave up
our claim to the title of Champions

Had we been defeated in a fair
game and on an open field we should
utter no word of complaint or pro
test,
North Carolina teams have been
defeated in other years by those of

be said that an N. C. team ever
sought an excuse for a fair defeat

victorious rival. Our teams have

A Wonderful Invention
Zoology teaches that the hairs of the head
are hoU-w, and contain an oil that gives
them life. In clipping the hair with scis
sors, tins hollow is left open, and the hair
loses its life-giving properties.
I have a. Machine named the Singeing Ma
chine, which removes the hair and at the
same time closes up the hollow, causing; the
hair to retain its life-giving properties, and
therefore stopping the hair from falling out
or dying, and giving it a sett growth.
Call and examine this machine and have
your hair singed.
