TOILETS ON CAMPUS
INSULT TO STUDENTS

SOME MORE ATTENTION NEEDED.
First, we wish to thank those responsible for the response to an
article and editorial we carried some time ago with regard to the bathing
conditions, and the promised correction of this condition so far as it is
physically possible with present equipments.
Today we are bringing to your attention in a concrete way another
matter of equal, if not more importance. We are at a loss to understand
why the health authorities have not already discovered and remedied the
conditions in the campus toilets, and in the dormitories genei-ally. To say
the least, the conditions are disreputable. "Highly unsanitary" only ap
proximates a description.
In the first place, as brought out in this article, the work of the jani
tors is not what it should be. A janitor for a building should look after
the building not only for an hour in the morning, but all during the day.
And then, they should be co-operated with by the students. At present,
neither is happening, and for the comfort of the surroundings, to say
nothing of the health, something should be done at once to remedy the
existing conditions. We present this investigation to those responsible for
what it is worth, and in the confidence that when this matter is brought
to the attention of officials it will be corrected.
With men living crowded in dormitories as they are here today too
many safeguards cannot be taken. A contagious disease would spread like
wildfire.
v : HELP FOR STUDENTS.
As announced elsewhere in this issue, the Y. M. C. A. is inaugurating
a system whereby some member of the faculty will be in the Y building
for one hour every afternoon to talk over with students any problem, or
difficulty that any of the students may need help on.
This is a significant move, and capable of tremendous good. It is a
strain for any young man to be pitched from a high school where every
thing is either done for him, or he is directed to the minutest detail in do
ing for himself, to this campus where everything is different and with
nothing to help him over the rough places. The change is tremendous, and
it takes a well controlled, and self-mastered man to really make the change
without a considerable loss to himself. And just at the time when a man
is in the deepest water about the things he is up against, he is afraid to
ask anyone anything for fear he will appear "fresh," and so they lumber
along, some coming through, and some going through.
Nor does his problems lessen as he goes on in college. All along, in
every man's life, things are continually coming up about which he wants
to talk to someone; and there are many men in college who have no very
close friends to whom they can talk to advantage.' And so they are left
in the dark.
This proposal of the Y provides someone to whom any student is free
to go, and someone who should be able to help a student when consulted.
We congratulate the Y on inaugurating this program.
THE COMING MUSICIANS.
The Letz Quartet that comes here the fifteenth of February under
the auspices of the Department of Music is reputed by many papers at
places where this quartet has been heard as one of the best organizations
of this sort in the entire country. The Pittsburgh Gazette-Times has to
say of it "Though one of the younger organizations of the sort, it already
plays with the unity and plasticity of one of the greatest," while the New
York Times says "it has reached excellence in the difficult art of quartet
playing." '';.': -
But regardless of whether it is the best in the country or not suf
fice it to say that it is one of the best and far above what we are accus
tomed to hear in Chapel Hill. We are up against particularly great diffi
culties here. We scarcely ever have an opportunity to hear any really great
artists, and when by chance a thing of quality is brought to Chapel Hill
we stir ourselves too late to realize it, because it is sandwiched in between
things of no particularly great importance. But the Department of Music
is persisting in its effort to bring to the University community some of
the best things in the country. It has already brought two programs of
the first quality. On both of these money has been lost, but the depart
ment is persistmg in the hope that when the community really learns that it
" " 6 um soa nlngs at it will always respond to music depart
ment programs. And so the Letz Quartet comes to us Tuesday.
The purpose of this statement is not to urge any man to attend this
program just to make it a financial success, but it is to call to your atten
tion beforehand something that is reputed to be worth while. And to urtre
the community that if it really wants to hear things that are worth while,
to come to this program. It will entirely be worth your while. You will
begin to become interested in the finer productions, and by your presence
and interest you will underwrite future programs that you shall naturally
want and expect. We have to pay the price of our isolation in thorough
co-operation for the best things.
Florida University's
team, on its northern trip, stopped
off at Raleigh long enough last Mon
day to administer a 39 to 18 defeat
to the State College team. The
game was never close, the Southern
boys leading at every stage. N. C.
State was also defeated by Trinity
College on January 29.

' When things come to' such a pass

is inadequate, but no kick is made
about that. The toilets that are
here can be, and should be, kept in
a decent condition, and since there
are plenty of janitors on the campus,
the writer can discover no valid ex
cuse why they should not be.

After a bully-good .
dinner
After a bang-rp meal, a smooth
smoking Meditation just tops off
in fine style. It affords thirty
minutes of solid comfort before the
afternoon work begins.
The skillful blend of fine, mild
Havana gives a delicate taste and
subtle aroma that makes one
hungry for another Meditation.
Meditations lead In popularity. Try
of these quality cigars and
