Chapel Hill will immigrate to Dur ham next Friday night. .The plans for the big meet to be held there at that time have been completed and arrangements have been made for the comfortable accommodation of the large crowd that is expected to attend. .Not only is the meet open to athletes for a dance has been planned and all may enter the struggle. This meet is particularly Caro lina's. .Its very being is largely the result of the activities of Bob Fet zer who is coaching a team that will make the meet even more complete ly the property of the University. Carolina men will be there in force to cheer that team on as a track team has never been cheered be fore, in the state. . . . That night will be the first birth day of track as a sport worth men tioning in North Carolina.. It is to be a birthday party and it would be peculiarly fitting for the birth day presents to be kept at the Uni versity. . Coach Bob and the track men are doing their utmost to win the meet and they will win it but everybody is invited to the party and everybody should be ' there to help the team and Coach Bob win. that is the image we have when we speak the word Carolina. . . The love of Carolina is a thing that no man has a right to carry buried in his heart. It is the duty of every man who feels this spirit to spread the story of it to all young men who will some day go some where to college. It is not so much for the University that we should do this although the gathering of the best youth of the state will build to more splendid heights the prestige of the University. ' A number of the : county clubs have inaugurated a plan whereby this great gospel is carried to the men of their counties. .To every high school in their county they send the various University publica tions. The members of the clubs male it a point to see the prospec tive students when they are at home and in various ways impress upon them ' the many and great advant ages that Carolina has to offer to men who come to her. Carolina is to us the most magni ficent institution that has so far come into our lives. Feeling this we cannot fail to wish to give a part of her heritage of greatness . to other men who might come after us. So it is the duty of each one of us not only to support the customs, traditions, and activities of the Uni versity but to send everywhere the splendid story of her prestige and position. THE PINE BOX R. L. T Jr. Swain Hall was truly a hall of swains last Sunday when there were two female guests present. (Yeah, we know it's a rotten pun, but after that one the Dr. Hender son pulled in chapel about Isben and Hasben, we ought to be able to get away with it.) ' STUDENT FORUM THE CAROLINA PLAYMAK ERS PRESENT. Dear Mr. Editor; "Here lies Carolina Spirit, R. I. P." This is the second complaint gainst departure from that cherish ed thing which we call Carolina Spirit, to appe r in this column i.-i less than a week's time. Last time it was from the Pick. This time it is from Swain Hall. Last Sunday a Carolina man, whose name I don't know, brought two girls to dinner rt the Hall. Well, that was all right. Swain Hall welcomes any guests to the University. These erirls were loudly arid uproarously- received by the boarders m the Hall. That was all right, too. It was what the girls probably expected. But here's where the break comes in. Some mannerless swine of the Swinery be gan to throw rolls toward the table at which the girls were sittti;ig, and whether on purpose or accidentally. one roll got one of the girls right on the face. I don t know who threw that roll. If I did I think I would ask the student council to ship him, but whoever he was he had no busi ness throwing in the first place, as Swain Hall makes no allowance for this in the; board bill, but worst of all, to throw anything at, or even in the direction of a ladv is bevond all conception of Southern chivalry, and Carolina spirit, if there is such a thing. (I've begun to doubt it). At least, the scoundrel could have gone over and apologized to the lady, but no apology was forthcoming. (Signed) H. D. Duls. The Lenten Season. As all good Episcopalians and Catholics know, Lent, the season in which being good is considered the "correct thing," is on hand. This period is never extensively observ ed on the Hill bt as usual there are a few Freshmen and Seniors who are keeping it; Sophomores and Juniors never do. Statistics show that the percentage of students who are. members of the above mentioned churches is very small, so we do our best to describe the season to all who are not acquainted with it. Lent lasts for forty days, divid ed into six day periods; Sundays don't count. It is the time during which people are not supposed to do those things which they ought never to do. Society ladies use it as a period of athletic training and stop eating candy. This system allows them to be good and reduce at the jame time. Modern young things follow the footsteps of their elders d stop eating candy, smoking, and going to all night dances. Con sequently their skins improve and they are in better shape to enter the furious after Easter social sea--vo l. St. Mary's girls are not allow ed to have dates, this should im ove their .exam marks. And yd rj truly has stopped his mid night lunches at Gooch'. We are broke. NEW FOLK-PLAYS TO BE PRESENTED THIS WEEK Tonight ends one of the most suc cessful seasons ever enjoyed by any Carolina team. These boys have its..; honored by the whole South, . .t is u.i to us to do our little b.t Shell out with those gold bas .e: b lU and let's make them good (Continued From Page One.) entertainment. Elizabeth Lay has given a long list of excellent plays to The Playmakers. "The Lord's Will" is a tragedy of a religious fanatic with unusually well drawn characters. It promises to be one of the best of The PJay makers' creations and many believe it is the best work Mr. Green has done. The cast will include Kath erine Batts, Hubert Heffner, and Katherine Woodrow, some of the best talent that has been found by the University dramatic organiza tion. Mr. Stout's play concerns the life of a country poet and is written in the same style which made his first play such a success. The cast for this production is also unusually good. It is made up of Paul Trot ter, Ellen Lay, John W. Mobley, WilbUr Stout, and Mary Yellbtt "Blackbeard" is a melodrama for which The Playmakers have been waiting for three years, and has only come to the surface after Miss Lay's efforts covering a several year period of work and then the joint finish of the play with Mr. Green's aid. It deals with the last stand and death of Blackbeard, a famous pirate that kept all the Altantic coast terrorized for years. It is a famous story, well handled in dra matic fashion by these Carolina Playmaker authors and looks like one of the best things of the year. The cast includes some of the best veteran talent and some new actors also. These are J. E. Haw kins, Allan McGee, Robert L. Thompson, Anthony Combs, F. J. Haronian, and George Denny. Mr. Denny and Mr. Combs are listed among the best of Carolina's ac tors. The performance will start promptly at 8:30. Special music will be furnished by the Univer sity Orchestra.

It seems eminently worth while to set forth the results of this study, for certain perfunctory explanations and conclusions. The following is the average budget of the faculty: tal will shrink within the estimated amount which the economists tell us should constitute the budget of the average professor.

And if I didn't buy $1,000 and 11 cents worth of books every year I should have to give the same lectures over and over again. As for the clothes well, one just must wear clothes appropriate to one's station. Even so, the fact remains that the average college professor spends $3,000 more than his income. It must be so. The average budget above proves it. MORAL: You can't most always sometimes tell but figures is figures to most folks. Total .$ 6,706.55 ARCHIBALD HENDERSON IS AUTHOR OF MATH PAPER On Friday and Saturday nights of this week The Carolina Playmakers will produce another series of ori ginal folk plays. . . Lately the at tendance of students at these pre sentations has been pitiably small. Those connected with the Playmak ers have wondered at this and have made every effort to please the stu dent body in the kinds . of plays presented. . This is an unfortunate situation. The Carolina Playmakers, notwith standing certain adverse, criticism. is the only organization . on. the campus of a high creative and ar tistic nature. . Its sins have been many but the splendid virtue of its artistic aim. more, than balances worth in its favor. The programme for Friday night is made up of three carefully chosen plays that cannot fail to interest and please the student body. This organization has brought more of the cultures for which we have clamored to Carolina than any o'her agency on the campus. '.But culture is not a word to conjure with, it smacks too much of the educational. Rather let us say that the plays will be the stuff and will lay over the movies like a tent. ITEMS OF INTEREST The Murphey Club asks that The Tar Heel again call attention to the fact that the Roanoke Island Film will be shown at the matinee at Pielr- Kvick today, tomorrow and Thursday. mis picture has been very much in demand all over thd state for its his torical value. The admission will be only ten cents. I d Mr. President, wouldn't it be good idea to get a couple of extra j e ; nd give one to Coach Bill and -;e:id the other down to Major Boyer? - Damn "Damn" is the most versatile word in the English language, and especially so in the vernacular of the e.impus. There are eight parS of eeches according to our Foerster, and "damn" is used as five of them. Count 'em Noun: "I don't give a damn." Verb: "IH be damned." Adjective: "That damn math." Ad verb: . "He plays damn' well." In terjection: "Damn, I hate to study." And we have no doubt that there are some champion cursers that can use it as the other three. (Continued From Page One.)

Professor Collier Cobb will SDeak Wednesday night at Gerrard Hall on "Japan, Within anS Without." Now, Tar Heel, Look What You Started. Soaie .weeks ago the Tar Heel published a student forum letter entitled: Wanted: One thousand Co-eds. The following appeared in a recent issue of The Advocate of Alexander Graham High School of Charlotte: Wa.ited: One thousand-co-eds by the University of North Carolina xe aiuuents are anxious lor a .10 der, more social life, and ap peal to the fairer sex to come to their rescue. Come on girls! You don't . .uit to see them suffer. ale, the logical basis, for the evoca tion of such a world of number;" to "justify the introduction of the minus sign, the distinction between cardinal and ordinal numbers, the formal results of the operations of multiplication, using all different combinations of signs, the use of the symbols of the square root of minus 1, and the square root of minus "a," and so on;" and "to suggest the great and crying need for an ele mentary work on number and the fundamental algebraic operation, which may be employed in the uppei grades in the high school- and dur ing the first year in college." He shows that originally men used abstract numbers only, the integers used in counting. Other types (frac tions, negative numbers, irrationals, and imaginary) are inventions of the mathematicians in accordance with three fundamental conceptions: one-to-one correspondence, invarience, and principle of permanence, which he explains and illustrates. . Graphical methods of number rep resentation are used effectively to justify the fundamental laws and to show why the rules of reckoning are applied as they are to the extensions in the number system. I am reliably informed that the average salary of a professor or oth er faculty member at the University is $3,706.55 so that the above an alysis amply proves what I started out to show, namely that on the av erage the faculty is living beyond its means. Of course some of the items in the above composite, or average budget seem inordinately high. The item for clothes, for instance' may seem entjrely too large and out of pro portion. It must be remembered however that the seats provided by the University for the teachers to sit in are very rough and hard on clothes and that the social life of the faculty is extremely strenuous and exacting. The item of $1,000 for recreation and amusement is quite inclusive, covering automobile up keep, Pickwick (second show of course) Playmakers and Musical "Ex travagances," postoffice box, subscrip tion to the Greensboro Daily News, Ladies' Home Journal, and various other journals with which one may keep posted on the trend of current events. That a college professor should have to spend $1,000.11 for books is rather remarkable at first Mr. C. D. Snell left on March 2 for a ten-day field trip in the west ern part of the State. On March 4 he spoke in Brevard on the correspond ence work and other services offered by the extension division. Among other points visited were Asheville, Hendersonville, Murphy, and Waynes-ville. I. V. Wilson, a student in the University, was called home Satur day on account of the death of his mother. 5M THIN( LEAK Venus Everpointed and other MataJ Pencils "THE name VENUS is your guarantee oi perietiiun.

The lecture fund established by the will of John Calvin McNair, of the class of 1849, became available in 1906, and the interest there from rendered it possible to begin the lec- ture in 1908. Under the will the ob- ' jects of the lectures "shall be to show the mutual bearing of science and re 'ligion upon each other and to prove the existence of attributes of God i'. rrrn nature." j The subject of Dr. Dinsmore's lec 1 urcs will be: "Religious Certitude in an Age of Science" and the sub topics will be: 1. The influence of Science upon Religious Thought. 2. The Nature and Truth of Religion. 3. Religious Certitude and Beliefs. the freshmen will practice, but for the first few days they will be on Emerson field with the varsity. No freshman coach has been selected, although a number of men in school have applied for the job, among them Llewellyn, Cox, Spruill, and Shepherd. Patterson has withdrawn his application recently on account of his work in the medical school, and the place will go to one of the first three mentioned. Prospects for a strong freshman team are good. A number of good men have come to school from the ' -e"t H-h schools of the state with excellent record for high school - , eoted to show up well in college play. Manager Downing is arranging a good sched ule for the freshmen, including a trip through Virginia.
