"If you never loved another,
How then learned you to embrace?'"
Joyous, he pressed her to him,
Whispering in her ear in haste,

She nodded sweet permission;
So we went to press, and I rather guess

ALUMNI AT NATIONAL
CAPITAL HOLD BANQUET
Washington Association Hears Dr.
O. Coker Dr. Wade Atkin
son
W,
In Washington, D. C, on February
26, a meeting of the Washington alum
ni association was held at the Garden
Tea House. Dan Grant, General Alum
ni Secretary, was present at this meet
ing, and so was Dr. W. C. Coker, Uni
versity professor of botany. Professor
Coker was the principal speaker of the
occasion.
Tho object of the meeting was to
discuss plans for raising money for the
"boautineation" of the Carolina cam
pus. Dr. Coker has been for some time
interested and active for tho improve
ment of the rumpus, a largo part of the
work of tho campus committee being
done under his supervision. J lie Alum
ni Association in Washington lias a
membership of about 180 members.
Following the talk of Dr. Coker, Dr.
Wade II. Atkinson, president of the
Washington association, made a talk 'in
which he declarod that education con
sists of more than a study of text-books.
He said he has found that environment
controlled to a very large extent tho
mental and moral attitudo of individu
als, and he concluded by urging that
the Washington alumni consider it a
personal privilege to contribute to the
physical beauty of their alma mater.
There were about 60 alumni and a
number of ladies present at the Wash
iugtou meeting. Mangum Weeks, sec
retarv for the association, read letters
from persons unable to attend express
ing their desire to help in the cause.
The money that the Washington alum
ni have set out to raise has been char
acterized by Professor Coker as "m
worth while sum," a minimum of $1,009
being the aim, with $2,000 hoped for.
WAKE FOREST STARTS

Medical College of Virginia in the fall of
1S70. and is the oldest and one of the
Inrgest medical fraternities in Amerien.
Dr. .T. D. Kceder. Professor of procto
cology at the I'niversity of Maryland,

Coach Bob stated in an interview to
day that all arrangements for the meet
which is to be held in the Star brick
warehouse have been made and that a
general improvement in lighting and
other features has been made over last
year.
Since arrangements have been made
to hold the high school part of it in
the afternoon, the events will not be so
crowded as last year. They attempted
at that time to hold both on the same
night and the result was a great deal
of confusion.
Ten Highs Entered
Ten high schools are already entered
fur this year. The main ones that will
be represented are Greensboro, Sclma,
Durham. Chanel Hill. Oxford, Golds-
boro and Burlington. The main con

At the regular meeting of the North
Carolina Club Monday night at 2X
Phillips Hall papers were read by W.
Barnette and L. II. Moore on "The Prim
ary Reforms in North Carolina," and
"Home and Farm Ownership."
Barnette's paper dealt with the evils
of the present primary system and its
reform. The present primary law is
unsatisfactory and is much criticized,
but not with the idea of returning to the
convention system. It is very regret
table that North Carolina is one of the
few communities in the world that tol
erates a crooked ballot. There are
ample opportunities for fraud and vote
buying in our primary ; there is no
secrecy about it.. It is easy enough for
a candidate, or some of his supporters,
to mark a considerable number of bal
lots and give them to indifferent voters.
Ib-publicans can vote in the Democratic
primary as well as the Democrats. There
is no law to punish offenders in the
primary and until this is changed, cor
ruption will continue.
The remedy for the corrupt practices
of the primary is the Short Ballot. The
principle of the Short Ballot is : first,
that only those olhees should be elective
which are important enough to attract
and deserve public examination; and sec
ond, that very few olliees should be filled
at one time, so as to permit adequate
public examination of the candidates, and
make it possible for individuals to pre
pare their own ballots without the help
of a trained politician.
The greatest evil the Short Ballott
would abolish is the blind voting that
exists everywhere ' in North Carolina ;
very few voters care how they vote ex
cept for the most important offices. No
state has wholly adopted the Short Bal
lot, but most of them have shortened
their ballot to some extent. To shorten
the ballot small offices are either made
appointive or are raised in importance
so as to arouse interest in thein. The
leading men of America are in favor of
establishing the Short Ballot.
There should also be some provision
to insure secret voting, such as the Aus
tralian Ballot. To this there should he
added some form of Corrupt Practices
Act, to combat crooks. The primary
should not be held so early in the year,
because it makes the last lap of the race
too long and involves too much expense.
And lately there should be a law fixing
a lawful expenditure for the candidates
and committees.
If North Carolina is to keep pace with
the other stales of the V'niou she must
remedy the defects of the present prim
ary system.
Moore's paper dealt with the evils and
remedies of tenancy. The, tenancy prob
lem is much greater than formerly and
has become a real menace. Almost two
thirds of all the farm tenants in the
country are in the southern states, and
of this number the majority is found in
the cotton and tobacco growing sections.
Farm tenancy is not only a negro prob
lem but it has become more anil more
a while man's problem until now there
are more white tenants than negro.
Tenantry is detrimental to any Ntute
or country. Farms are exploited and
robbed of their productiveness, and farm
equipment is demolished by tenants. As
a result of the continual moving of the
tenant the church and school suffers, but
the children of the tenants sudor more.
Illiteracy and non-church connection go
hand in hand with tenancy. The evils
growing out of tenancy are.

its cheineKs. Besides bcin UHed for
business purposes, he assured his audi-
iudustriul i ence that ninny young lucii tire utilizing
instability, irresponsible citizenship, nnd
porerty. Tenants are ideal subjects for
the spreading of Bolshevistic ideas, while
home owners are responsible citizens.
The negroes are settling and bu.ing farms
faster thnn the whites, nnd the standards
of living are lowered because of the in
ferior mental qualities of the negro.
These evils must be stopped and the
most practical and most easily operated
plans for- relieving the situation are:
state aid to farm ownership: a progres
sive land tax; an improved system of
rural credits ; a written contract between
landlord and renter; the adoption of a
crop lien reading in terms of food and
feed crops as well as money crops; nnd
the establishment of co-oiiorntive market
ing associations which should be joined
by tenants.

ing. In tho United States, Southern busi
ness men can transact sales in Xew
York in tho space of live minutes by
tho use of the telegraph. Even the
smallest of towns can bo. reached from!
any point in an hour, and the average
is 20 minutes. South America is joined
to us by a steel link which separates
her only by ten minutes. Even Chile,
on the other side of the Andes, bus been
reached. To get connections with Chile,
it wag necessary to tunnel the Andes,
becauso tho soil on tho mountains is
constantly shifting. Labrador and oth
er far distant points have also been
reached.
Mr. Miner urged tho importance of
young men learning to use the telegram,
learning when to use it and how to
secure the quickest, cheapest and best
results. A knowledge of the use of the
telegraph system is invaluable to any
one in business life, he said.
