Th query was, Resolved: That labor unions are detrimental to the in dustrial development of the United States. Karl Jansen Does Some Stunts. Mr Karl Jansen, the Swedish impersonator, entertained a fair sized crowd in Gerrard Hall last Friday night. The entertainment, although it jarred once in a while on account of its sudden and inco herent changes, was nevertheless a success. Mr. Jansen won his au dience from the start by his kindly smiles and constant good nature. His speaking of English is hiudered but little by .his native brogue. He has an easy address on the platform and his appearance is helped con siderably by his animation and large athletic build. His program was spicy and was as varied as the wares in Doctor Kluttz's empor ium. Mr. Jansen began with a short description of his home, "the land of the midnight sun;" he followed this with quick change impersona tions of Swedish and Norwegian characters. Incidentally he empha sized the power and the use of the voice and took off Bryan in his speech on "The Cross of Gold" and Tillman on the "niire"er." With one bound he returned to Sweden, gave some Swedish dialect speeches and songs and imperson ated the Spartan-like death of an old Viking. Mr. Jansen in his hu man way then gave a humorous im personation of a German emigrant just over as he wanders about and rubs against American life in such cities as Raleigh and Greensboro. The next number, an impersonation of Richard III. on Bos worth Field was the best on the program. His rendition of this difficult character was very good; it showed careful study and keen interpretative power. One of the most interesting fea tures was the fencing tilt of Mr. Jansen and Mr. C. D. Wardlaw. The tilt was lively and realistic but was cut short by the breaking of one or the toils. Mr. Janse stressed the importance of knowing how to fence. He emphasized physical culture of all sorts and showed the importance of the body to the intellectual and moral life. Mr. Jansen's thoughts Were ever recurrine to his native lane Sweden. He spiced his entertain ment by introducing Swedish char acters at every . turn. He brough the entertainment to a fitting close by singing in Swedish, "Home Sweet Home. " Inter-Society Debates. The query for the Commence ment debate is. Resolved: That interstate railway lines should be incorporated under the federal gov ernment. Messrs. Milo J. Jones and O. C. Cox of the Dialetic So ciety will uphold the affirmative Messrs. John W. Umstead and W Munroe Gaddy of the Philanthropic Society will defend the negative. The query for the Soph-Fresh debate is. Resolved: That the merging of all the cotton mills o the South into one great corpora tion will promote the industrial de velopment of the South. The Ph men, Messrs. J. A. Highsmith and J. A. McKay have the affirmative, and the Di representatives, Messrs. S. H. Wolfe and C. R. Wharton have the neerative.
