The foot-ball game with V. M,. I.
has been cancelled, owing- to the
fact that they would not give us a
satisfactory guarantee to go to Lex
ington; and would not come to play
us on our grounds on the same terms.
We are sorry that this game will
not be played. The soldier boys
usually put out a strong team and
would no doubt have given us a
good game.
We understand that the Manager
of the William Bingham School
foot-ball team and the Manager of
the Horner School team have re
quested to be allowed to play their
teams here on our field. We hope
that the request will be granted.
Here is a good chance to give a
stimulus to Preparatory School ath
letics. Every student in college
will be interested in this game and
will give the visitors much encour
agement. At this writing the an
swer has not been sent to these
managers, but we trust that when
it is sent it will be favorable.
So far we have received very few Ex
change. We send The Tar Heel to
a great many different Schools and
Colleges hoping that they will favor
us by sending in return copies of their
paper. The following have been reg
ularly received. Red and Black,
Harvard Crimson, Trinity Archive,
The Hustler, F. and M. Weekly, Brown
and Vhitet Guilford Collegian, College
Message.
College Topics made its 1st appear
ance this week. ' We earnestly ask you
who get The Tar Heel to place us
on your exchange list or notify us at
once to stop sending the paper.
Let's have a Tennis Tournament.
We understand that the ambitious
3Toung tennis champions of Trinity
College are anxious to try their skill
with us. :Why not? It might
serve to stimulate a general inter
est in this healths' sport. , At least
it's worth trying.
It seems that we have published
a sufficient number of "communica
ted" articles telling the public of
the absolute worthlessness of some
of the Tar Heel, and Magazine
Editors. Without pay in advance
we will not give the use of our col
umns to such advertising in the fu
ture Honored Editors, you know
what you were elected for and
whether you ought to resign or not.
Lecture on Persia.
A very interesting lecture was
given at the Chapel Thursday even
ing by Rev. Mr. Yonan a native
Persian. Mr. Yonan is a graduate
of Lonisville Theological Seminary,
and intends to return to his home as
a preacher and teacher. He shows
a deep knowledge of the customs,
and character of his people and
country.
He began his lecture by pointing
out places of interest on the map
and showing the important position
of Persia with regard to the inter
ests of Great Britian and Russia,
and the Eastern Question. Then
he gave a brief sketch of the rise of
Persia more " than three thousand
years ago, giving stereoptican views
of the tomb of Cyrus and other an
cient structures, following these
with the picture of the present be
ing, and views of his palaces the
most beautiful and the most costly
in the world.
After describing at some length
the cruelty and dishonesty of the
Persian rulers, he told us of the
Nestorians, a little band of Chris
tians, who have remained among
the heathern tribes since the time of
the Apostles. He told of their suf
ferings at the hands of the cruel
Turks, picturing in his own graph
ic way the Mohammedans, and the
great faith of his interesting little
band of Christian people.
"Persia the laud of the Fire-worshipers,
the home of Zoroaster, and
Mohammed. It is the home of al
most all the Eastern religions".
These points he brought out in a
most interesting way, dipping light
ly into the doctrines of Zoroaster,
and showing the cause of the phe
nomenal success of Mohammedanism.
He ended his lecture by a thrilling
picture of the sufferings of his peo
ple, martyrs for Christianity.
His lecture was profitable not
only to the student interested in the
progress of Christianity, but to the
student of the political and social
problems of the day.

Dippers Needed.
It is a very nice thing to drink
out of a well bucket but when there
are so many to drink it would be a
good deal better if we had about
three dippers fastened to the well
for the use of the public. If they
are placed on or about the well it
will only be a question of time when
they will find a resting place on the
bottom of it. Then fasten a few to
the curb with chains and they
in all probability will last longer.
