With the kindest sentiments, The Tar Heel greets its readers, students, faculty and friends of the University. As it starts on its course, it is animated by the hope that this year it may reach higher things and a farther goal. This year we should join hands to make it a student publication of which no student need ever be ashamed. A survey first of some of the defects of The Tar Heel, and, second, the suggestion of some plans of reform should be of value to this end. We shall speak with that candor which the time and subject urge. A main trouble is this: It has become a custom here for the ap pointed guardians of The Tar Heel to treat it with indifference and ne glect. It has been a step-child. And the whole burden has often been thrown on the chief, who can not do the work unaided. It has been a contest among the editors to see which could be the most careless and indifferent. Small ef fort has been made to put attrac tive garments on our little Filipino. We have been content that it should be barbarous, and bare. And while the foster-fathers have neglected the child, thefother members of the household, the stu dents of the University, have usual ly been engaged in bespattering it with mud and occasionally in threatening it with lyddite. If works are a criterion,, however, the real interest of the students in The Tar Heel has been slight. There is no general sentiment such as to incite its editors to do their best. Fault-finding has followed most of the issues; yet there has been little effort honestly to point out defects and propose reforms. It is easy to find flaws. De struction is a "pud" and the work of a day. Babies can play at it. Construction is another matter, and takes time. The Tar Heel will be a better paper if its readers will be helpers. Sensible suggestions about its con duct will be welcomed, for they will do good. Fulminating on the campus won't. If you know any thing of interest, give it to us. We need short items about campus doings. Qur columns are open. Short poems and humor will be welcome. het it not be said that the apathy of the college is the cause of the apathy of the editors. jTli.it a college paper cannot be a success without the hearty and cor dial co-operation of the students is a truism. The Tar Heel will be a better paper if every member of its board, seeking refuge behind no excuse, will try x to do his whole duty. The hours spent in such a service are not lost and should not be be grudged. Finally, brethren, The Tar Heel asks and expects that every stu dent take enough interest in it to try to help it. Give it less abuse and more assistance. It is the student's publication and we all share in its success or failure. Which shall we make it? football'prospects. We present with pleasure in this issue an article on the present status of the live subject of foot ball at this institution. Before returning to the Hill students were discour aged over the outlook; but now it is certainly growing more encourag ing. When asked his opinion, Manager Carr said he thought the prospect was good. The presence of Coach Reynolds, whom we have proved and not found lacking in any quality that goes to make up a coach, ertainly makes that pros pect better. The presence of a larger number of students on the side lines than last year is a eood sign. Every student ought to take off a little time in the after-noon to come out and enjoy himself and help his representatives. And when a man makes a good play give him the applause he so richly de serves, f Stndents should not come to nasty conclusions about the team. Manv a team that began the season appa rently without prospects has de veloped great strength. We have seen that kind of thing here. The men have started to work right and whether we think we are to have a winning term or not, we should give them all the assistance we can. If we have such an esprit du corps, we will have taken a long step toward victory. Commons Hall. We have it on the'highest author ity that Commons is on probation this year. Unless it is patronized by a larger number of students than in the past or at present the inten tion of the authorities is to close its doors, for it won't .'pay to keep them open. This would be a col lege calamity. The price of board here' would go up like a thermome ter in a simoon. We urge the stu dents to patronize this great uni versity institution urge them for their own interest. Its food and service for $8.00 areunequaled any where. The closing of Commons will touch the pocket-books of us all. It will place the boon of Uni versity education out of the reach of many deserving young men. Although no boast has been made of it, it is a fact that the Univer sity has opened this year with the brightest prospects it has ever known. The registration for the year will almost certainly be the largest in the history of the insti tution. We congratulate the ex ecutive on the outlook. We con gratulate the University that such a hand is at the wheel. The rowdyism at the Y. M. Ci A. reception deserves severe Con demnation. We have nothing to say against innocent fun. '.But'this exhibition had vieiousness in it; it would not have continued after the appeal made by the President if it had not had such an element. Let us have a college sprrit that will put such uncivilized practices un der a ban. Youth and exhuberant spirits are no, excuse for rowdyism. Col. Waddell's Ancestor. In the course of a class room lec ture on North Catoiina colonial his tory Monday, Dr. Battle brought out an interesting fact in connec tion with a University graduate and on an eminent citizen who is now a candidate for Senator. He stated that Col. Alfred M. WTad dell is a direct descendant of Sir John Yeoman's, the Barbados plan ter who made a settlement on the Cape Fear in 1677. The colony moved thence to the present site of Charleston. RALEIGH. N. C. Fine Photographs of Every Style and Finish. Water color, Pastel and Crayon p traits, made at low prices. U. N.
