are enviable ones, and any man should
be proud to represent a college which
has such athletic record. We are now
needing men for the football teams.

Austin to the stand to speak on
College Publications.
In his impressive manner Mr. Aus
tin brought forth a "freshman's bible"
and declared it to be the best friend a
new man had in college, . "The Tar
Heel" was commended as that organ of
the Athletic association which gives
expression to the every day life of the
college. All students, old as well u as
new, were urged to support this pulse
of the campus. The "Bulletin," "Y.
M. C. A. Calender," "Directory,"
v "University Record,'' j and Yackety
Yack" received a share of the atten
tion of the speaker, and the nature and
purpose of the various publications
were explained. The speaker plead
for a greater support of these deserv
ing publications. ;
T At the close of Mr. Austin's talk,
the song- leader, Walter, Barbeo, called
for "I'm a Tar Heel Born," and it was
sung by the large choir with ringing
emphasis.
C.X.' Williams was introduced as a
man of high literary society attain
ments, and a promising candidate for
inter-collegiate debating honors. Mr.
Williams' speech was excellent to say
the least. His well rounded sentences
and occasional outbursts of eloquence
were splendid examples of the great
benefit of the literary societies. His
speech on the subject, "Literary So
cieties" appears on another page in
this issue.
The chairman announced that the
concluding address of the meeting
would be made by Mr. B. W. Turling
ton who was introduced as a "scholar,
debater, and President of the Y. M.
C. A." Mr. Turlington's speech was
filled with welcome to the new men
and his appeal for support of the in
stitution of which he is president
brought a happy response in the minds
of his hearers. His subject was
The Y. M. C. A. ' ..
A synopsis follows: The Young
Men's Christian Association believes
in the Honor System, in college publi
cations, in athletics, in the literary so
cieties, and supports all things that
make for manhood and true fellowship.
It believes in that fellowship which
allows all classes and kinds of men to
meet without distinction. The asso
ciation here is doing a great work. It
It furnishes B'ble Study courses,' Mis
sion classes, and sends 8 young men
throughout the country districts to
teach Sunday schools, which, mission
ary work,, according to Frank Gra
ham's speech last - year, "diminishes
the truth of the sayiny that the Uni-
versity.is a ..mighty. light J' house that
castsits 'clear light far across the bor
ders of state and nation, while its base

the responsibility of paying $500 an
nually for the support of a missionary
in China, and the Association sent as
their missionary, Mr.' E. E. Barnett,
who was at that time the Secretary
here. Besides these large tasks, it
aids the student by issuing the Hand
book and Directory," and securing work
for needy students. It also provides the
star course entertainments. To men
who have formerly been inclosed with
in the influence of a home in which
loe vwas the restraining power against
all temptations, ana who are now
where that influence is possibly J weak
ened by the temptations of associates,
the Y. M. C. A. offers ' an anchor o
right. This is your formative period,
and you should not neglect the religi
ous side of life. The Y. C. A. has
helped many and will help you. i .
Mr. E. P. Hall, secretary of the or
ganization here, was called to the plat
form and asked to say; a few words.
Mr. Hall came here at the beginning
of the year to take the place of Mr.
Barnett. He was formerly at the Uni
versity of Georgia where he graduated
this year, and at which place he was
president of the college Y. M. C. A.
His few words, which follow, won him
many friends among the old as: well as
new men. .;i 'r : 'r.'ul
Mr. Hall speaks: "I am exceeding
ly glad to be here.: We have debated
Carolina and lmow something! tbc
men she sends out. In coming to Chap
el Hill as secretary, it is my purpose
to be a friend, and to be of service to
every man in the University. , To new
men I wonld sav. eive us a chance of
your friendship; and to all the old men
I ask a renewal of friendship. I ask
you all to join and support the Young
Men's Christian Association." ? '
A hearty yell under the leadership
of "Ichabod" was given Mr. Hall at
the conclusion of his talk. Calls of
Tommie" were then made but the big
captain's modesty kept him silent.
Amid yells and songs, the meeting ad
journed and all repaired to the Y. M.
C. A, building where a reception to the
new men was in progress.
The Reception. '
The large hall was crowded to its
capacity to accomodate the large num
ber who had responded to the invita
tion of the Y. M. C. A. The building
was tastefully decorated in college
style, ferns, banners, and pennants be
ing used. Many of the faculty as well
as townspeople were present, and the
new men were introduced. A refresh
ment course of ices was served. The
occasion was highly enjoyed by many
and pronounced by some to be the most
excellent reception yet given by the
Y. M. C. A. 5-'Vv'':V:-:;--vH '

A Good Position
Can be had by ambitious young men
and ladies in ; the : field of i" Wireless"
or Railway Telegraphy. Since the
eight-hour law became" effective, and
since the "Wireless" companies re
establishing ! stations throughout the
country, there is. a great shortage of
telegraphers. Positions pay beginners
from $70 to $$0 per month; with good
chance of advancement. The National
societies. 3 They have had a long and
glorious history, have done great ser
vice in state and nation. They can
aid you in the self mastery which you
are here to acquire.
"Mental training is not all that you
should eret out of vour stay here. You
are to build characters for yourselves
In order to do this you must place your
.selves on the side of right, higher liv
ing, and truer manhood. Become
member of the Young Mens' Christian
Association, which stands for these
things. v, ;
Not only your minds and characters
are to be developed, but your bodies,
also, if you are to attain the greatest
possible success. Do not think of the
athletic work as a means of making
team. Making the team is secondary.
The main object is to train as many
men as possible.
"The government of the University
is in the hands of the faculty. The
laws of the state prevail here as else
where, and every student is expected to
behave. as a gentleman. The ideal of
self-government is also found here. It
should be remembered that underlying
such government there must be a sense
of personal responsibility. The Honor
System, whtcli"was long ago adopted
by the University, puts every man on
his honor and does away with the sys
tem of spying, both in class room and
out.

the warnings given to college men by
Prof. Winston. These "don'ts," he
said, sound trite because we have
heard them so' often. But the simple
earnestness and feeling with which
the speaker presented his argument
gave new meaning and power to those
oft-heard words of advice.
Dr. Mims on the Y. M. C. A.
In the opening of his address Dr.
Mims spoke of the great benefit which
he had derived from the Association
work while a high school and college
student. The Y. M, C. A. is one of
the great uplifting world movements.
It stands fot righteousness and Chris
tian service. You need the Associa

and service, in building for yourselves

work with men. Any great movement
that calls you out of yourself is a great
force i n your 1 i f e. '
Life has been truly represented as a
battle. It is a battle that each of you
must fight for yourself. You need the
