The Army of the United Slates Is Shaved Clean O matter how a man shaved before he went into the Service, he is pretty sure to come out of the war a Gillette user. The first thing he'll note among his camp mates is that more of them are shaving with the Gillette than with all other razors put together. He'll see Gillette users in his squad lather up, shave clean, splash the soap off, tuck the razor away, and be standing at attention in the inspection line all in five minutes. When he gets Overseas, everything is the Gil- itself under extreme conditions as no other lette, from the left flank of the British line in razor has or can.

They belong together. Ten million up and doing men all over the world had discovered the Gillette before the war broke out. The war simply made the Gillette prove Blades on the Gillette principle of No Strop ping No Honing on the Gillette idea of a simple, compact shaving outfit, no strops or hones to clutter up the kiWon the Gillette con tention that a man's daily shave should be an incident and not a ceremony.

STATE BRIDGES DISCUSSED (Continued from Page 1) and piers," Mr. Fallis said, "In designing piers and abutments the size of the foundation should us ually depend on the foundation material." Mr. Fallis pointed out the fact that many bridges would not have been washed out by the flood in the western part of the State re cently had the construction of their foundation been more adequately supervised. A lively discussion followed Mr. Fallis' talk. Miss Vinton Liddell, of Char lotte, has been spending a few days on the "Hill" visiting her cousin, Miss Anna Forbes Liddell. CAPT. ALLEN'S CAMP FILLING UP According to Capt. J. Stuart Al len the applications for the sunv mer training -camp to be held at Bingham Heights, three miles from Asheville, from June 14 July 26, are rolling in faster each day, and great interest is being shown by the young men of eligi ble age throughout the state. The time is short for U. N. C. men, however, as the final date for re ceiving applications has been set at April 10th. The prospectus can be obtained at military headquar ters. It contains all necessary infor mation as to site, necessary equip ment, expenses, duration of camp, eligibility, and officers of instruc tion, besides pictures of the IT. N. C. battalion, Bingham School, and site of the camp. A schedule of the day's work gives "reveille" at 6:30 and "lights out" at 11:00. From 4:30 in the afternoon until bed time, the recruit is free to in dulge in healthy sports and other festivities. Supper is at 6 :30. Tom "Wolfe, of Asheville, ha3 been initiated into the Pi Kappa Phi fraternity. Chemistry Journal Club Meets At a meeting of the Chemistry Journal Club on Tuesday after noon presided over by Dr. Vena ble, an interesting discussion took place on the subject of titanium. H. G. Smith discussed the pres ence of titanium in minerals of North Carolina. P. O. Jarvis then discussed its preparation and its uses in ferrotitanium and ferro carbon titanium alloys. It. H. Sawyer showed some other uses of the element, such as coppertita nium and aluminumitanium al loys, and as a pigment for paints. These discussions were taken from an article by A. J. Rossi, who was recently awarded the Perkin medal for achievements in chemistry. Prof. Collier Cobb returned Monday from "a successful gas attack upon the eastern front" Currituck and other towns were visited. He left Friday for Raleigh. Capt. Allen left the "Hill" Thursday" morning to spend the next two weeks in Montreal, Can ada. . THEN FACE ABOUT AT HALF WAY BRIDGE AND MARCH ON SWAIN EN MASSE Battalion left 4:15; returned 7 :25. "Over the Top" at Swain. Monday afternoon it looked like the much-talked-of drive on Dur ham was to be a fact when Cap tain Allen led the battalion a mer ry chase all the way to the Half Way Bridge. At any rate the bat talion is able to go the necessary distance in the enviable marching time of slightly over three hours, in spite of the fact that all mem bers didn't keep up to "Teeny" Hall's stride. A person who was not with the battalion can not have the faintest idea of the effective ness of the "drive", 'the beautiful language used, and the tremendous hit made by Swain Hall on the return. The number of casualties was extremely small considering the great rapidity with which the drive was prosecuted, most of the "hoys" coming through" unseath ed except for a few blisters and the loss of valuable breath. The battalion left the environs of Chapel Hill, everyone was told to "shed" sweaters or coats, and was allowed to add our "voices" to the evening breeze. Our destina tion was unannounced so that there would be no sprained ankles or indigestion, diseases fatal to a hike to Durham. At one point hopes were lowered when the com panies faced about, back to Chapel Hill, only a moment later to be headed again towards the Bull City. "Dog-trotting" was in or der from then on all the way to the Half-Way Bridge, except for a few short intervals to allow Com pany D to catch up. Two miles from the bridge, the band, gamely playing, "We're Coming Over," was left as a rear guard. Expla nations still persisted, namely, that the hikers were to return and pick up their sweaters, but, at the point where it was just as easy to go on as to return, Capt. Allen led them back amid interjections, and cries of "On to Durham," and smiled triumphantly at the downfall. Some noble spirits attempted to get leave to go on to Durham but were unsuccessful; while a few were left on the field of battle no bly struggling to advance. When the final rush "over the top" was made at Swain Hill spir its were running high, and Mana ger York stated afterwards that the University would have to get the hikers "filled" some where else next time or close its doors. It is rumored that, on top of this, there was more hard work for the "Poor Feet" of some. But, as last week, Captain Holding again is silent. At least prepara tions for such a "spree" were in progress, the moon even beaming upon proceedings: During the last week, the inside and outside of many of the frat halls on the "Hill" have been re painted, preparatory to the dances ; the Kappa Alphas were so thor ough as to give their mascot, "Stan" Travis' aligator, a coating of golden paint, and funny to say, the reptile has so far stood the ex periment well.
