A Course hi Ornithology
Mr. T. Gilbert Pearson is again
tills spring giving a course in orni
thology. This course consists of lect
ures on the bird life of North Caro
lina, including such topics as their
nesting habits,, migrations, and
their general life histories, together
with the relation which they bear
to Ag riculture. The course is sup
plemented with field excrusions and
laborator- work in practice of
skiniug and mounting specimens.
Mr. Pearson has done much work
along this line and has made some
valuable contributions to the litera
ture of Ornithology. In an article!
entitled "Nesting habits of some
Southern Forms of Bird life in East
ern North Carolina" published in
the Journal of the Elisha Mitchell
Scientific Society of November 1898
he shows that Worthington's Marsh
Wren, Florida Cartnorant, and oth
ers, which ornit hoi ovists have hith
erto overlooked as occuring" in this
state, may be found nesting in num
bers in suitable localities in our
eastern counties. These'-interesting
discoveries were made by. him
the past year while on a five months
collecting trip a'ong the Carolina
coast for the State Museum at Raleigh.
Shall We Have an Instrucor in
Elocution?
The return of the spring term re
minds us of our great need of an in
structor of elocution at the Univer
sity. That there is an imperative
need- for such an instructor we
think no one will question. The
University is as itshould be, the ed
ucational head of North Carolina: it
is here that the deserving youth of
the state may come to take their final
show to shield, and buckle on the
full armor for the battle of life. A
great-many of our students will en
ter the professions in which good
delivery is a primary requisite to
success.
Now, the question is shall the Uui
versity procure an instructor and
train its students in delivery for
certainly it is impossible for a per
son to become a good deliverer with
out such training and long prac
tice, or shall it 'neglect 'this part
of their education and thus send
them forth to do battle with the
world, awkward and uncouth? We
feel sure the authorites of the Univ
ersity will agree with us in saying
that the latter is one that does not
commend itself very favorably as a
means for the uplifting of the Uni
versity and of the State.
Last y e a r Mr. Cowan d i d
a great deal of good in this direction
although his course was not all that
could have been desired.
Can't we have some one again
this year? w. With the Georgia de
bate, two interesting debates, the
annual contests in the two societies
and the Dramatic Club all of
which would receive untold
benefit from such an instructor, to
say nothing of the great number of
others who would avail themselves
of the opportunity. Can we offord
to be without some one? We think
not.
Mr. J. A. Caldwell, '99, who has
been with the State botanist at
Plymouth, N. C, returned to the
Hill Monday night.
1 Philanthropic Hall;
Feb. 18,' 1890.
Whereas God in His infinite
mercy has seen lit to take from a
mong us one, who was beloved and
honored not only by his Society, but
also by his University, his State,
and his count ry, we, the members
of the Philanthropic Society, while
bowing in humble submission to the
call of Almighty God and realizing
our great loss in the death of Dr.
Manning, know that the example of
his noble life will continue in the
future to exert an influence upon
our lives even as it has in the past
Whereas we the members of the
Philanthropic Society having gath
ered together out of respect and in
memory of Dr. John Manning, our
esteemed Professor of Law, have
hereby drawn up the following- res
olutions;
Resolved ist. That this Society
as one, extend to the sorrowing
family their deep and most sincere
sympathy.
Resolved 2 id. That our Hall be
draped until after Commencement
Resolved jrd. That a copy of
these resolutions be sent to the fam
ily.' ' : : "
, Resolved 4U1. That these res
olutions be spread upon the records
of the Society, and to be published
in the Tar Heel, University Mag
azine and the State papers.

Society Work.
For the meeting: of Feb. 11, '99, Mr
J. R. Reynolds made the best debate
in thePhi. Hall and Mr. Kluttz was
awardedthat honor in the Di. Hall.
It will be noticed that both of these
are new men and that fact goes to
prove what we have said before, that
the coming- class of freshmen will raise
the standard of debating-in the Univer
sity. For the meeting- of Feb. 18, 1899,
Mr. Harding was reported as the best
debater for the evening in the Phi.
Hall and Mr. Swift made the winning
speech in the Dialectic.
The Phi. debated the query: Re
solved "that the present jury system
should be abolished." '
The Di. discussed the dispensary
question. It can be seen from the
nature of these questions that the
Societies try to keep up with and dis
cuss questions o f to-day, questions
that we must meet in after life.
A man on entering the University
should join one of the societies as soon
as possible and get to work that he
may learn how to express himself as
he stands before his fellows. To do
that is an art which can be acquired
only by practice in a literary societ
where every man is given a chance to
develop himself. By no means is the day
of oratory gone. The day of declam
atory speaking is past but the age of
the clever debater, the graceful speak
er, the true orator is ours.
Mr. O. S. Thompson' '02, spent
a fewr days at his home in Raleigh
this week.
Mr. Lynn Mclver who was for
some days confined to his room with
La Grippe is out again.
Mr. II. P. Harding made the best
debate in the Phi. Society last Sat
urday night.

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 with scis
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. - :
attention ff'von to Urosciog . La
dies' hair. Cutting done with exquisite and
srtistis skill by the old University Barber
of twenty years' experience.
The singing machine is highly recom
mended by scientists throughout the country.
