NOB SHALL WE
LOAF HEREAFTER
The Junior class has inaugurated
a clean-up movement on the campus
and in Chapel Hill. This week has
been designated as "clean-up week."
But if the movement is to be com
pletely successful ever week must be
a clean-up week and this must be
the inauguration of a new movement.
Nor must - the total responsibility
rest on the members of the Junior
class alone. Various criticisms have
been made of an inferior janitor
service and the blame for untidy
rooms has- been put on our Ethio
pian servitors more than ever. Is
it possible that a self-governing
student body will shirk, a funda
mental responsibility of their campus
life 'here and put the blame on the
University authorities?
The principle that every man's
home is his castle is nowhere better
exemplified than pn our .campus. . A
student is literally monarch of all he
surveys when he! enters his own
room. Yet many are willing to live
in slovenly surroundings ajid shift
the duty of the clean-up to a
janitor who has fifty such rooms .to
attend to. -
Most students who, in their de
velopment here, come to have a deep
feeling for; the University do not
cherish the spiritual attributes of
the place alone. There is also an
honest' pride in the natural beauty
of the surroundings, in the quiet dig
nity of the old buildings, in the
clean-cut appearance of the campus.
It is much the same pride with which
a man will exhibit his own home.
The University authorities are
playing square. A member of a
prominent faculty committee said the
other day, in reference to the build
ing outlook: "This campus is about
to see big things." Our years of
poverty seem to be over, but in this
new era of prosperity let's regard
ourselves not merely as guardians
of the campus moral life, but also
as guardians of its physical appear
ances. Every week is clean-up
week!
EDUCATION IN MUSIC
Mr. Paul John Weaver, the Uni
versity's musical director, gave the
first of a monthly series of Sunday
afternoon piano recitals last Sunday.
There is a significance about this
greater than the mere announcement
of the new musical program.
The most interesting conclusion
perhaps, is that the University is
finally alive to the need of some
of the greater touches, some of the
more refining influences that go into
the making of a man here. Carolina
life, as it stands now, is analygous
in its unpolished strength to an
unhewn lump of granite. Nowhere
in the nation, we believe, are the
fundamentals of manhood grounded
more firmly than on our own cam
pus.. Yet the subtle polish to be
derived from the musical and dra
matic arts has been somewhat lack
ing. And a student here cannot
afford to ignore these refining influ
ences, even if he stands on a granite
rock.
The Carolina Play makers have in
one brief year achieved a success
that is not short "of phenominal,
The dramatic element that we have
lacked has found a place in our life
here that is not to be denied. , Will
Mr. weaver achieve a like success
with his musical program? Perhaps
the sight of a raw, crude Freshman
Sunday afternoon, knotting his big
red hands as he was stirred by the
appeal of something he couldn't un
derstand, is an answer.
CATCH THE SPIRIT!
This week the Junior class in con
junction with the Y. M, L. A. is
inaugurating a much needed move
ment in the campus and in the town
of Chapel Hill a "Clean-up Move
ment." The movement has as its
purpose the cleaning up and keeping
clean of the campus, dormitories, and
the Main Street of Chapel Hill. To
notice the campus or the conditions
existing in the business section of
the town would establish convincing
evidence as to the need of such a
movement. The University authori
ties, Campus Cabinet, town authori
ties, and Community Club are whole
heartedly supporting the Junior class
and Y. M. C. A. But the real
responsibility for putting the move-
ment over in a successful style rests
argely on the student body. These
different organizations, notwithstand
ing the support that they may be
able to give this worthy movement,
can do very little without the aid
of the : students. The share and
responsibility for crowning the move
ment with success rests very largely
upon the shoulders of each student.
Ninety -nine men out of a hundred
may refrain from throwing rubbish
on the campus but if the hundredth
man does it, then the work of the
ninety-nine is practically without
avaiL Catch the spirit which calls
forth such a movement and contribute
vitally to its success by carrying out
your part. Let's make the campus
and Main Street clean and keep them
clean!
STUDENT FORUM
MOVEMENT
THAT MOVES
Clean-up week as clean-up week
is about over. Which is one wav
of saying that a good start has
been made on a good movement.
This week was but a means unto
an end the end being an era of
cleanliness to which there will be no
end-which may sound crazy, but is
not.
Our calling the idea a movement
means that it is going to keep mov
ing until some future student body
decides that the idea of keeping our
campus and our town clean is un
American and out of keeping with
the Carolina spirit.
On this principle the movement
has a fine chance to make Dr. Pat
terson reconsider his statements
about the impossibility of perpetual
motion. For friction is at present
the chief hindrance to perpetual
motion, and no friction can come
into the working of this plan except
from a natural friend and ally of
dirtiness. And we will all deny that
there is such an animal at large on
our campus.
The movement has already done
much moving. It has moved a good
bit of trash into its natural habitat,
the trash-can. . It has moved several
of our alleged dormitory janitors
out of their annual and year-long
nap, to clean up the buildings. And
it has moved by the Y. M. C. A.
to plan a banquet for the occupants
of one room in each dormitory which
is judged to be cleanest at an in
spection to be held Monday.
Besides all this, the movement has
nioved out into Chapel Hill and
allied itself wtih a kindred movement
in the town. President Kerr of the
Junior class which has been chief
promoter of the movement so far
had an interview with Mayor Robin
son and one with the ladies of the
Community Club.
"I'm with you," said the mayor.
Anything we can help you in just
let us know. We are planning to
beautify Main Street considerably,
and your plans work in nicely."
Mrs. Collier Cobb, president of the
Community Club, wrote a letter to
Mr. Kerr endorsing the movement.
"The Junior class," the letter said,
"received quite an ovation in the
Community Club when the clean-up
movement was announced."
Thus our friends out in Chapel
Hill say the idea is good, and our
old friend Common Sense agrees so
it must be good.
But, this is no job for one class
in the University, or for one cam
paign committee. It is up to the
.whole body of students to' carry the
movement on and show themselves
Carolina men instead of college
boys.
When you were a child you spoke
as a child and threw trash as a
child. . But when you came to Caro
Una you put away childish things.
So look for the trash-can when you
finish that pack of cigarettes. And
when you have read "Mutt and Jeff"
in the newspaper, don't throw it on
the campus or on the street or even
in the postoffice.
THE CAMPUS CABINET
The Campus Cabinet, which - was
organized for the purpose of re
ceiving and considering suggestions
that might in any way add to the
betterment of the life of the stu
dents, and which has already played
an active part in bettering campus
.conditions, not to mention the part
it has played in putting new life
into class athletics, and the plan
ning of chapel exercises, is now
planning an extensive clean-up cam
paign, in conjunction iwth the Junior
class. The Campus Cabinet under
its present organization, which has a
representative , from every phase of
college life, covers the entire student
body with its broadness of scope. As
result ' of its broadness of scope
it has been able to accomplish many
things, has received many sugges
tions that have heretotore never
reached the proper organization.
In the clean-up campaign that is
soon to start, plans are being made
to place trash-cans in convenient
places for the use of the students,
that it may be less difficult and more
pf an incentive to keep, not only the
campus clean, but the town as well.
t is hoped that the student body
will take advantage of the oppor
tunity that will be given them to
cast their trash in the proper place,
and not permiscously on the campus
and side-walks, as in the usual cus
tom. The motto is "keep the campus
clean." ;
Not contented with the above
plans, that , have been and will be
put in operation, the Campus Cab
inet is now organizing a fire com
pany which will have charge of the
fire4iose. The fire fighters will be
headed by a fire chief, who will have
charge of both reels. There will be
an assistant chief for both reels, as
we have two on the campus. This
fire fighting organization is organized
in order that a few man may know
what to do in a cool and deliberate
way, should a fire break out at any
moment. This organization, it is
reported, is worthy of your best
support.
READ THIS!
In order to be proud of our new
post office it is only necessary to
remember the old one. But when
the relatively, small part of the floor
space of the new building, which
those who planned it saw fit to allot
to the general public, is crowded
during mail time, the building looses
some of its attractiveness.
With the old post office the stu
dents saw the futility of the whole
student body trying to get into the
.building at one time, and so did not
attempt it. Now the students recog
nize no such condition, so Carolina
packs itself into the postoffice to
wait for the mail and gazes with
a large quantity of emptiness. We
could wish the architect who planned
the building no worse luck than that
he be a part of this crowd..
During bad weather this condition
can . scarcely be remedied but with
the coming of the spring months the
students should co-operate in alle
viating the effect of this unequal
division of floor space by not trying
to all crowd into the building at
once. Keep moving.
A REMEDY URGED
, Every year now the problem of
getting out student publications here
is becoming more difficult. Every
year student managers of the
Yackety Yack, the Tar Heel, and
the Magazine are finding it harder
po get the financial support of the
students who in the end enjoy the
benefit of and the credit for these
publications.
The result is bad in two ways. In
the first place the men who have
been elected to publish these periodi
cals are so hampered by an effort
to overcome the handicap of insuf
ficient funds that they are unable to
give the proper attention to the
quality of a media they are affording

for the expression of the work of
the editors. In the second place
a hardship is inflicted upon those
men who willingly give their support.
The subscription rate to them is
much higher than it would be were
the entire student body giving its
support. '
Any man on this campus who
believes that the student publications
should live and improve cannot deny
that the present situation should be
remedied. It can be remedied.
Every student who registers here
should pay along with his regular
registration fee a "blanket fee" for
a subscription to all student publi
cations. Vanderbilt has recently, by
unanimous vote, created a "Campus
Tax" to meet the same situation.
Many northern colleges have long
since had this plan. With the ad
vantages offered by it, and the
immediate need of our publications,
North Carolina delays its adoption
only at the cost of its publications.

Child Welfare Will
Be Club's Next Subject
The next meeting of the North
Carolina Club will be held on Mon
day night in Gerrard Hall. The
public welfare committee, of which
Mr. T. J. Brawley is chairman, will
have charge of the meeting. This
committee will conduct the next three
meetings. The question of public
welfare is one that has just come
to the front in North Carolina and
deserves the thoughtful consideration
of North Carolina citizens. The
topics for discussion . at the Monday
night meeting are child welfare and
juvenile delinquency. C. T. Boyd and
W. H. Bobbitt will read papers on
these two topics and the findings of
the committee will be summarized by
T. J. Brawley.
Judgment
In the selection of your
Clothes need not neces
sarily be based on tech
nical knowledge of clothes
making.
When you come to a store like
this you've taken the first in
Jd udgment.
You place your reliance for good
quality and good style upon the
reputation of the store or the
makers of the clothes we handle.
Cy Thompson Says-
To Ex-Service Men:
President Wilson has signed
the Sweet law recently passed
by Congress, making many de
sirable changes in the six per
manent forms of Government
Life Insurance. The choice of
lump sum settlement to your
estate is one of them.
Come in to see me in my of
fice opposite the campus and
learn in detail how you may re
instate your lapsed policy or
convert all or any portion of
yours.
Unless you need additional
coverage, particularly for pro
tection to credit, we will not
even discuss the advantages of
the superior service that the
first-chartered purely mutual
Amercian company offers over
most commercial companies.
