February Magazine
We have before us the February
issue of the North Carolina Maga
zine. It is the third numbsr of this
collegiate year. "The Least of a 1
Lands" is the title of the first arti
cle, and it immediately attracts our
attention. The writer carries us
with him far across to the far famed
Holy Land. He has but recently
re4 u rued from a visit to this inter
esting region and writes from per
sonal observation. Another writer
has wondered why the Hebrews left
rich and fertile Egypt for thebar-
ren and rugged hill of Judea. The
explanation is easy, and one readily
appreciated by Americans. Egypt
was fertile; the Hebrews were com
fortable, even wealthy rTlhas
world's goods. But comfort,
wealth and all were worthless for
they had not that priceless boon for
which thev and all men have risked
all liberty. To seek this, tode
velop their civilization and worship
their God the Hebrews left fair E
gypt for unpromising: Judea. And
like New England, Scotland, and
Switzerland, in their rugged and
barren country "produced what the
world needs' most men; men of
character, men of God." Then fol
lows a vivid description of this won
rous land of so much interest and
importance to Christendom. An
historical sketch of "Edmund Fan
ning" next greets us- His life is
briefly sketched. He is shown to
have been the best educated man in
North Carolina in his day. Has he
been rightly represented in history?
Was he vile, wicked and without
honor? Our historian says not and
produces strong- evidence to show
that history has not dealt justly by
Edmund Fanning-.
"The Melancholy Days", is the
only poem that finds its way into
this issue. We hesitate to criticize
and so leave it to each reader to
form his or her own opinion.
An essay by Mr. C. L. Van Nop
pen next greets us. In '94 he won
the Mang-um Medal at the Univer
sity by an oration on the "Influence
of Holland on American Institu
tions." This oration he has kindly
consented to give for publication to
the Magazine. . He shows that the
great American government did not
grow out of the aristocratic Engiish
institutions, but from the Democra
tic institutions of Holland, and that
the fathers consciously turned to
Holland, not to the mother country
for, their precedent and example.
The readers of the Magazine
will welcome another article from
the pen of Mr. T. Gilbert Pearson,
on bird life. His former contribu
tions on this subject have attracted
attention, interest and favorable
criticism.
The South is faced with a mighty
unsolved problem. "The Negro in
the South," is a well written and
practical article on this subject.
The negro as a race is shown to be
unfit for the burdensome duties and
high responsibilities of citizenship.
Therefore, it log-ically follows that
as a race he should not be allowed
to play such a controlling- part in
the government of our land. Dis
franchisement of the ignorant mass
of negro voters, is the only solu
tion. . , . ,.
A synopsis of "Cyrano de Ber
garac,' follows. 'Tis well written.
We are unfortunate in not having
availed ourselves of the opportunity
to read this great play. We can
not therefore express an opinion.
The writer evidently looks for the
early death of "Cyrano." The
theme is not a one for a great
tragedy, he says. But it will be
a great stage success.
The editor discusses some inter
esting topics in"The Editors Desk."
He should not, we think, enter into
the athletic field. The development
of our literary life is the field for
the Magazine and it is a 'great big'
field too, with ample room for
growth, and development and dis
play of ability.
Let us join the editor-in-chief in
his effort to make the Magazine
what it should be. Three more is
sues will appear before June. It is
no small work. Help it on. Sug
gestions will be willingly re
ceived a n d-i f vort ii-y-adopted.
And above all try a hand at writing.
The pages of the Magazine are
open to all. We are here for acquire
ment of culture and knowledge.
There is nothing better than to bea-
ble to write well and forcibly' You
can't do that without practice. We
have the Magazine to offer a field.
It is to the literary side of our life
what the athletic park is to ath-
letics-to practice on. Why hesitate
anymore to take advantage of one
than another.
Of f icers of the Alpha Theta Phi
4A committee of Alpha Theta Phi
looked recently into the standing of
the classof '99 and found that Mr.
John R. Carr was entitled l the
presidency of the society, Mr. Jes
se K. Dozier to the secretaryship,
and Mr. Marsden Bellamy Jr. to
the treasuryship. Tne President
requests all Juniors who are eligi
ble to the society to hand in then
grades to him as soon as possible so
as to avoid the trouble of looking up
the standing of so great a crowd.
A meeting will soon be held and the
Juniors eligible to the society will
be initiated.
Washington's Birthday.
The 22nd. of February is fast
drawing near, bringing to us a hol
day so that we may celebrate the
birth of our immortal Washington.
It is a time honored custom for
the students of the University to
have some appropriate exercises on
that day, and this year unusual in
terest has been taken in it, and ex
traordinary efforts have beeen made
to make the programme an excel
lent; one. The speakers one from
each Society, are men of ability'
and all may expect splendid ad
dresses from them.
The exercises on that day will
doubtless be the best we have had
in years, any everybody should at
tend and hels make the celebration
an enthusiastic oue.

A Wonderful Invention.
Zoology teaches that the hairs of the head
are hollow, and contain an oil that gives
them life. In clipping the hair withscis
sors, this 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 soft growth.
Call and examine this machine and have
your hair singed.
Special attention given to dressing La
dies' hair. Cutting done with exquisite and
srtistis skill by the old University Barber
of twenty years' experience.
The singing machine is highlj' recom
mended by scientists throughout the country.
