Reverend S. S. Bost of Durham, rector of St. Phillip's Episcopal Church, preached on Sunday night the University sermon for October. The large crowd of students and townspeople present heard a force ful and helpful discourse on faith. The speaker chose as his text a part of the 27 verse of the 11th chapter of Hebrews: "For he en dured as seeing Him who is invisi ble. ' He said in part: "Man's faith in the Invisible makes him do something, endure something and be something. By faith Abel made a more acceptable sacrifice than Cain, Noah endured the taunts of his people, built the ark and preserved life, Abraham was severely tried and became the father of the chosen people. "Moses did and endured more than these 'as seeing Him who is invisible.' Who is the meekest man? The greatest law-giver? Who the most patriotic? Who suff ered most? Always the answer is the same, even childish lips would stammer Moses. Moses suffered many disappointments. He asked God to let him go over into the promised land but he was denied this privilege and was only allowed to see it from a mountain; he asked God to allow him to see His face but was likewise denied this privi lege. He was misunderstood, he was maligned but he rose above and endured it all. The secret of his life, the mainspring of his heroic action was his walking , with God. 'He endured as seeing Him who is invisible.' f "John Adams attained to many high stations in life, among them the presidency of the United States, but he never once during all his life retired to rest at night with out first repeating the prayer learned at his mother's knee: Now I lay me down to sleep. Thomas Paine, a contemporary of Adams and a most brilliant man, never prayed at all. He missed the whole secret of life communion with God. He was not honored of man because he did not honor God. "If I have," continued the speak er very earnestly, "any message for the students of North Carolina's oldest and greatest institution of learning it is this: You have life be fore you, you have but one time to make the most of it; therefore, when the failures, disappointments, and distresses come, endure them all 'as seeing" Him who is invisible " had commanded, and he mut obey. "Tax! Whatcher givin' us? I ain't runnin' no bloomin' bar-room." "Well, you know you must have license before you can sell clothes." "The devil you say. Who said I must have license?" "It's a town law. It's been oassed bv the board of" aldermen." I "Where's your mayor? I'd like to see what sort of a fool law this The'agrent thought he would An Injustice by False Statement About sixty per cent of the state ment made in last Week's Tar Heel iu regard to a horse getting unmer ciful treatment at the hands of the foreman of the grading- gang of the athletic field is false, and I think it was not a gentleman who made it. It is to be hoped that hereafter he will let other people's business alone, as his judgment has proven very poor in this case. (Signed) Foreman Grading Gang Der Deutcher Vereln. A dozen or more students and members of the Faculty met in the Y. M. C. A, ; Building Monday night for the purpose of organizing a German society to be known as Der Deutcher Verein. The pur pose of the society will be to have free discussion of affairs relative to German life and literature, and practice in German conversation. The idea of the society is to have an organization, the spirit and at mosphere of which shall be thoroug ly German. This purpose will be partially attained by having the re quirement that all conversation be carried on in German. Officers were elected as follows: President, Prof. W. D. Toy. Vice-President, Mr. S. R. Logan. Sec.-Treas. Mr. P. H. Royster. Der Deutcher Verein will meet weekly, Monday evenings at 7:30. The Policeman and the Agent. The policeman was hanging around the door at the Central Ho tel. The agent wondered what the policeman wanted. The agent knew he had not sinned openly. Presently the policeman took his courage in both hands and walked briskly in. Then, as if his courage were oozing through his fingers, he paused; but not to be driven from his purpose, he faltered in his soft voice: '.. "What about a little tax?" He hated to ask for it; it was a disa greeable task, but the stern mayor is. do the bluffing stunt, "He's right here in Squire Bar bee's office. Squire Barbee's may or, you know." To the office they went and the policeman introduced the agent with: "Here's another one of them agents what's kickin' about paying the tax," "Yes, sir, you must pay it." The mayor was brisk and business like. He was sure of his position. "State law gives us power. Judge McRae says all agents must have license and he's town attorney. Just look this up," handing the agent a reference to a law book. The agent argued, pleaded, swore, but the mayor was adamant. With a resigned expression the ag-ent went out to see if among seven hundred students he could find a friend with the needful ten-speck in his jeans. Mass Meeting Tonight.
