basketball team starts on its trip
through the Old North State on
February 4th. After success in the
two opening games of the season, the
men feel confident of a successful
trip. Davidson does not play Car
olina on account of a conflict of the
schedules of the two teams when
Davidson is in the vicinity of Chapel
Hill, and Carolina is not making a
Southern trip" this year, so ' the two
teams will not meet unless it is at
the South Atlantic meet in Atlanta.
The following games will be played

BY
STATEJEHWAY LABOR
Work Rapidly In Progress On Four
Mile Stretch Leading Into
Chape Hill.
TOWN WILL BE HELPED.
The construction of a four mile
stretch of the Pittsboro road is now
well under way by the J. H. Mullikan
Contracting Company of North Wil-
kesboro for the State Highway Com
mission, A top soil road, extending
from Pittsboro west to the Orange
county line, has already been com
pleted and the task for the above
mentioned company is to finish up the
remaining four mile stretch leading
into Chapel Hill and covering Orange
county's portion.
A road thirty feet wide is being
constructed, departing from the old
one in several places to remove
crooks and bends. Instead of coming
into Cameron avenue at the Tar Heel
Tavern as at present, it will extend
through the woods about two hun
dred yards east of the old road, cross
the railroad at the shack near the
Arboretum extension, and meet the
concrete boulevard slightly to the
right of Mrs. O'Daniel's at the West
gate entrance. There is not a single
bend in the road from Purefoy's
mill to Andrew's Cash Store. The
road, extending from Pittsboro, has
been practically completed as far as
the University's construction camp,
formerly used by the State convicts,
about a half mile from town.
Work is now being done on two
steel bridges along the road. One
is being built across the crew at
Purefoy's mill, a short distance from
the present one, and the other across
Little creek a few miles beyond the
mill.
Petitions have been sent to the
State Highway Commission asking
for another top soil road reaching
from Chapel Hill to Hillsboro.
If this project is successful, there
will be success from three different
sides into this corner of the State
once practically isolated on account
of the impassable roads. Also since
Durham is the principal market for
tobacco in this section of the State,
the farmers can with greater ease
and less expense get their crops on
sale.
About seventy-five negro la
borers, with thirty-five teams of
mu lee, are at work daily. At places
where the road is being widened, sev
eral trees and stumps are being re
moved, and several teams with wire
cables are at such work in the clear
ed portions, of woods just back of
Peabody. It is as yet unknown when
the new- road will be passable.
LEISURE AMONG STUDENTS
J. Theocrastus Smithkins, Junior,
Has Diary Read by English
Professor' in Chapel.
More leasure, quiet thinking and
meditation was the recommendation
of Professor Hibbard to the studi.t
body in chapel Wednesday morning.
The talk, interrupted by the bell the
previous morning,' was concluded
Wednesday.
Professor Hibbard began by read
ing a selection from an imaginary
diary of a typical political aspirant,
one J. Theocrastus Smithkins of the
junior class. The college life of this
young man; according to the diary,
was one continual round of com
mittee meetings, prof-booting, bull
sessions and petty organizations. He
was mixing up in everything, he said,
not for the sake of the thing itself
but for what it would get him next
year. ' ' .
"The fault I have to find with this
man;" said Professor Hibbard, "is
that he is confusing multitudinous
activity with scholarship. Every stu
dent has a right to a reasonable
amount of leisure for thought and
meditation. Education without this
calm effort to secure poise is nothing
but a dish of scrambled eggs cold
storage eggs at that. A goal I would
set before every student is expressed
in these three words thought plus
action." . ,
' Mentioning the growing agitation
on the campus for more culture and
polish, Professor Hibbard declared
that this ban only be secured through
meditation. As an individual test for
each student he proposed a list of
questions regarding the manner of
spending spare time and the amount
of reading done beyond what was
required.
Pure Gold Not Best for Coins. ,
The Tuscun sequin was the purest
coin known In all blstory, being 909
parts of pure gold to one of alloy.. The
6-ducut piece of Naples, another his
toric com, was 096 parts of gold and
four parts alloy, while the old Byzan
tine coins ' were next.) 986 parts gold
and 14 alloy. , Pure coin Is soft and
loses rapidly by abrasion, and alloys
are used to harden It.
Soap Will Stop It
An ordinary piece of kitchen soap
(s one of the best lubricants. A cor- ;
oer-of the cake nibbed an the metal
of a latch that will not work, on the
cords of a ;wlndow that sticks, on bu- ,
reau drawers or doors that will not
open and close easily will remedy the
trouble In remarkably quick time, ,
Oh, You Kid! ;
"Even In those early days when a
child Is feeding from the bottle," re-,
marked the Observer of Events and
Things, "he shows his predilection for
something more substantial by trying
to get hls toes In his mouth." .;
CLUB CONTINUES STUDY
OE FARM TENANCY EVIL
Paper bv F. A. Grisette on Subject
' Read Before Regular North
Carolina Club Meeting.
Continuing its study of home and
farm tenancy, the North Carolina
club heard a report Monday night by
F. A. Grisette on the effects of ten
ancy at its regular bi-weekly meeting
in Phillips Hall.
Mr. Grisette discussed his subject
from various angles, showing the evil
effects of tenancy upon personality,
family life, community enterprise,
citizenship, industries, and on the
church. He contrasted the status of
the farm owner in a country like
Denmark, where practically all the
farms are operated by the owners,
with the condition of the lowly ten
ant farmer in North Carolina and the
United States.
But in the cities home ownership
was stressed even more than the
ownership of farms, because of the
great predominance of tenancy in
our cities, e-pecially in industrial
communities, showing the relation of
home ownership to labor problems,
law and order, and other industrial
problems.
- One point effectively stressed by
the speaker was the effect of ten
ancy on the country church, showing
that it threatens the country church
as much as any other institution, and
that the problem of tenancy is a
problem that the church should at
tempt to solve if it is to save itself.
