With this issue the Tar Heel
begins the new year and the editors,
having- had more experience with
uqw year's resolutions than news
paper work, have refrained from
making- any new resolutions this
. year.
They will try, however, as here
tofore, to get out a readable paper
only hoping that they may meet
with better success in the future
than they have, in the past.
I he paper during the past term
has not been all that we hoped for,
but for whatever has been done,

We have made an earnest endeav
or to get contributions from alumni
and members of the student body,
but we have received practically
none.' '.'.;'.";.'
If the student body would realize
the fact the position of editors on a
college paper is no "snap," that it
is an empty honor a work for which
he receives no renumeration and
less thanks, that he sits up at night
grinding out copy often very unin
teresting to fill , up his columns,
they .might do much, to make his la
bor easier and the paper more inter
esting and more of a credit to the
University.
Since the Magazine lias been dis
continued the Tar Heel is our only
student publication and we wish
once more to ask that those who
can, will assist us in making i t a
publication that will be a represen
tative of the Universitv.
We wish to publish hereafter, un
der the head of communications,
contributions from students and
alumni. We shall be glad to have
free discussion of all questions of
interest, but shall reserve the right
of publishing only those communi
cations which we consider worthy
of publication and shall not be re
sponsible for the sentiments express
ed therein.
