We will send mimeographed copies of the above to those of our acquaint ances we haven't already said it to. Speaking of the rain and mud re minds us of another peculiar endow ment of Chapel Hill, namely dogs. From casual observations it seems that many of the town's canine citi zens have not as yet returned. They are" probably recovering from the after effects of summer school. Mud and dogs suggest another pecu liar edowment of the University. The Co-eds. Absolutely no slanderous hint is wrapped up in putting in the co-eds as the third member of the local tri umvirate. They just naturally deserve a place. It is rumored that the pro verbial co-ed motto of "Quantity if not quality'' may be cast aside. of disappointments in finances, room mates, courses and the like, will want to pack up and leave for home. Every year this is the case with several men. Efforts are being made by the Dean of Students, his helpers, the Y. M. C. A and similar agencies to keep the newcomers busy and interested. The 6rst few weeks of college are always the hardest for a man to undergo. Real perseverence is required of many freshmen to stick it out and really give college life a chance. The Uni versity officials are especially urgent in their request that the new men re main in -school. Assimilation, once begun, will take place rapidly. The burden rests large ly upon the shoulders of the first year men. They must not' throw- in the sponge until they have had time to get accustomed to their new surround ings, v v;. REGARDING CIRCULATION It will not be possible to send the Tar Heel out to the students through the mails for the first few issues be cause of the usual' and unavoidable confusion in the mail delivery situa tion at the beginning of school. Copies of the paper will be left around the campus at much-frequent ed places and students are requested by the circulation department of the paper to secure their copy in this manner. The circulation manager is hard at work preparing for an early delivery system which will give im proved service on the paper. Publication dates have been chang ed from Tuesdays ' and Fridays to Wednesdays and Saturdays so that better service can be rendered. Sub scribers will please cooperate with the management until the campus be comes settled down to normalcy. The directors of the "Carolina spir it" organization entertained at a fresh man-sophomore love feast Thursday night in front of the old South build ing. Guests were treated to a very snappy the rope snapped tug-of-war contest, a huge bonfire and a shirt- tail parade. It is predicted that the wooing and amorousness of the fresh and sophs will continue on and on. Plans are now being made for the installation of gas mains in the vil lage. The town and University plant is determined to have all the conven iences of the modern age. It is a pity that with the amount of surplus gas and hot air around Chapel Hill some of it could not be utilized. We suggest that some inventor get busy on a contrivance to salvage this loss. It is estimated that if hot air were water Chapel Hill would be a seaport. Observation , of football practice -gives high hopes of a winning eleven this season. A large array of promis ing candidates for the varsity posi tions insures the coaches of excellent reserve material. Several well bal anced backfield combinations will give opposing teams a chance to use all sorts of defensive tactics for the Fet zers will probably depend a lot on a slashing offense. After all a good of fense is a mighty good defense in it self. . THE SETTLING-DOWN PROCESS With the usual handshaking and greeting period past its greatest point the campus is raoidlv settling down to its regular session routine. The old students have resumed their former pastimes with a few new ones added to the list. Sophomores, in the usual sophomoric style, are showing the freshmen how to be collegiate. Jun iors, just recovered from their rah rah boy stage, are looking down in disdain upon the pranks and haughty bearing of the class just below them. The seniors, with the usual senior cynicism already developing, are be ginning their last year's residence on a college campus. -. Meanwhile the freshmen are divid ing their time between diligently pre paring their daily assignments, visit ing home town friends and avoiding the sophs. Quite naturally there is probably some cases of dissatisfied nd discontented men who, because A SUGGESTION Although it is not our purpose here to try to act as advisor to any new man who has taken up temporary resi dence here-as a campus citizen, we do believe a few suggestions in regard to the relative value of college friendship would not be entirely out of place. The University holds a very funda mental position in the educational sys tem of the state. It is the University and no other institution that can pre sent vividly the problems confronting the state at large. The ideas and or dinary plain "notions" of the people of the western part and those of the eastern are far different and even sometimes conflicting. One of the main tasks of the University, is to mould these two contrasting opinions into a broader and wider conception of the fundamental problems of the state. One of the main ways in which the two extremes of the state are brought together is through the personal con tact, the elbow rubbing and mind re vealing process which is wrapped up in that institution known as the stu dent body. A man prominent in politi cal life in the state recently made the statement that four years at the Uni versity would be worth the time to a Norh Carolinian even' if he never saw the inside of a book. ' This man was not advocating any anti-scholastic pro gram. . He merely took this extreme statement to stress the value of friend ship in collge. Friendship means un derstanding and understanding means harmony, unity in purpose and hence, progress. Friendships fostered at the Univer sity, where a man can mix with peo ple who represent every county in the state, who represent every thought of the state, who represent the state it self, are bonds of understanding that will lead to a greater and more en lightened citizenship. The mountain eer will understand why the easterner wants the port bill passed. The east erner will understand; the problems that his fellow westerner goes up against. The plea we are making is for a development of friendship not for so cial purposes alone but also for that education that will come from an un derstanding of the problems that con front every section of the state. In college life there will be many bull ses sions. Bull sessions are good things. They should be encouraged. But en courage those topics of discussion in the bull session that will give an in sight into the conditions of the home community of the co-sharers in the bull feast. Do not get us wrong. We do not at all overlook the importance of study in the college schedule. But many of us do overlook the importance of inter mingling with the students from other sections and gaining their ideas re garding any or all matters of citizen ship. Loafing should not be the word applied to bull sessions and bull ses sions should not be the term applied to loafing. They are entirely different. So if we are permitted to suggest or even hint at a suggestion to the new men it is: Cultivate your fellow man's acquaintance, for by doing so you will cultivate your own self. Cultivation of self means enlightenment, understand ing and progress. Individual enlight enment, understanding and progress applied to society, means social en lightenment, understanding and prog ress, Pickwick Theatre Shows: 3:30,7:00 and 8:20 Regular Admission 25c.
