In the debate with Pennsylvania Saturday night, the University's rep resentatives won the fourth of series of five debates. Of the four already held, this is the third in which Carolina was victorious. This, of course, means - thai -the; series is won bj( the University, even though Penn sylvania. should win the debate next year. . , The. fine record of the two literary societies in inter-collegiate debate has often been, commented on and needs not to be repeated; It may be well to say, however,; that the view sometimes expressed, that? the societies are less powerful than they once were, is not justified, if success in debate is an in dication of their power. Trpe, the functions of the societies were at ; one time more numerous than they are now; their influence extended over a wider field For instance, at one time they owned and operated the Univer sity library and policed the campus. They were undoubtedly a larger part of the University than they are now. But the societies, having been relieved or these extra duties, have, as their primary purpose today, the training of men in debate. That they are doing this with marked success; their records are ample proof. information in the University curricu lum, still a little innocent fun is most refreshing after listening for day after day to discourses on our moral welfare, or being told by the physical authorities that we ought to bath often, when we know at the time that there are only about three decent baths in the Uni versity to keep eight hundred students clean. ,.. Royal & Borden Furniture Company Durham, North Carolina DEALERS IN High-Grade Furniture furnishings for Students, Every thing for the Home LET THE COLLEGE CATERER, "cMarse Jesse" HOW. The "Higher Criticism' There is a certain type of college boy who passes judgment upon his teachers as if from some lofty altitude, whence he is overlooking the sins and follies of a vain world. Typical criti cisms are that such and such a man will not grade fairly unless one has a. "boot" on him, and that the pro- lessor does" not know how to give a quiz anyway, etc. It sometimes makes us feel really sorry for the poor, be nighted faculty to hear suclra fellow converse; all ot which is intended to call attention to the pure, unrecogniz ed, unrewarded merit of this poor, ground-down genius who has been awarded a five or six on his course. Right here it may not be amiss to say a word or two on the much, dis cussed subject of "booting" or "get ting on the good side" of a professor. There is but one sort of boot that counts for much at this University and that is nam work, xet some men, when they see a fellow-student going to visit a professor, will wink at him and saJ .'Vet-n a Doot on mm, are your' The University stands for thorough year, told a story ot I nesa and all that is best in education and the moulding of character.

BARKER, College Representative JONES & FRAZIER ' (Incorporated) " . Durham, : North Carolina CUT FLOWERS The University of North Carolina 189 Head ofthe StateJSystemof Education UT, Kerty, last how he overheard two chemistry stu dents conversing, one of them saying Let's invite Dr. Herty to the ban quet;" to which the other replied "Bet ter invite Dr. Davis; he gives the I marks." Whether, this conversation was in jest or earnest it shows the un- J udging from the demonstration by the students, Mr. Winston's few words in the chapel Friday constituted just about the best chapel exercises of the year. It. was not so much what he said as his whole-hearted radiation of good fellowship that struck the stu dents. Surely no speaker ever turned an introdution to better advantage than he did when, after being happily introduced by Dr. Venable as "an old boy still young," Mr. Winston arose, graciously acklowledged the applause with a bow, and began his speech by stating that while he had been intro duced to many audiences by various and sundry titles, this was the first time he had ever been introduced as "the Old Boy," This won the hearts of the students at once and the atten tion and; applause given the i istin guished speaker was rivaled only -by that accorded Dr. Venable 'when he read the humorous account of the tele graphic report; of the football game between Yale and Princeton. Surely a little fun in chapel now and' then is not out of order; Realiz ing the ' necessity' for serious talks since the chapel has aptly been said to fulfill the needs of a chair of general er s shoulder wno nas lust remarked 'Gee, but you are a rough booted" Talk like this, even though most of it be in fun, has its effect on the mind of the freshman; he is led to- meet his nstructors trembling1 with apprehen sion, expecting to nnd either a friend or an all-powerful enemy; there is no neutral ground. For this reason, a few words to the freshmen may no,t be ill-timed. First, let them ' bear in mind that it is no pleasure whatever to a professor to give bad marks. He would much pre fer to give good ones;- but when he grades a man a certain per cent, he has thereby set his seal, so to speak, on that man as knowing so' much Latin or mathematics or whatever it is. Secondly, let them realize that if hard, and will show ever so little gen-1 U. tlOfltS uine interest in their work, they will FlirnKhin'K find in their nrnfessnr a cvmthofir 1 Ul IllOlllliya friend and a willing helper.
