" The above sentence is 'a brief but excellent survey of the self-help situ ation here. The Y. M. C. A.s bureau of self-help last year provided employ ment and various forms of self-help assistance to over 700 students. Under the guiding hand of' the Y. M. C. A. this phase of college need has been wonderfully taken care of and much , good has come out of the work. 1 But the statement in the catalogue should be read carefully enough to see that the student must really deserve the help. We have no fault to pick with the self-help bureau or with any of its policies. What we do find fault with is the man who takes the work and then does a half-handed job. Not only will such action on the part of a few students ruin the whole system, but it will create a hostile atmosphere againBt the self-help man in general, there are a few men who accept the positions and odd jobs about the campus and town that do not repre' sent the spirit of the "meritorious stu dent of slender means." The business man or professor who takes this sort of work wants results from his em ployees. He is not in the position of a philanthropist who hands out easy money to men with slender means who merely apply for the job. The money that he is spending is not to help the student primarily; it is to help him self. Unless the self-help man can render service that will please the em ployer and make him feel that he is getting value for money expended, then he is not performing his duty to the employment agency or to his fel low self-help students. - We have heard men who employ stu dents here in Chapel Hill say that they had become disgusted with student help. This disgust on the part of many men who support the movement here will mean -that this institution will lose its reputation for the oppor tunity of self-help. This reputation and condition of facts is a wonderful asset to the University and its exist' ence should, be carefully safeguarded. Men who apply for jobs to earn a part of their expenses should have this fact in view. ' . t " There is no criticism here of the self-help man. He is a valuable and necessary part of the campus. He has achieved a great deal on the campus in scholastic and activity lines. In fact he is very prominent in the activi ties of the community. No man can better appreciate the value and need of a college education. But at the same time there are a few who are masquerading around in the clothes of a "meritorious student of slender means" and who do not do justice to the name of self-help. The best thing to do in such a case is to nip the first noticed offense right in the bud. No such attitude towards the employment afforded in the com munity can be tolerated. If allowed to exist it will cause the whole sys tem to rot and crumble. If it is hard to oust the practice itself, then oust those who practice it. . OPENING GAME Carolina opens her football schedule for 1924 next Saturday against Wake Forest on Wake Forest's grounds. large number of Tar Heels will jour ney over to the nearby town to see the opening game. It is predicted that the contest will be one of the hardest of the games to be played in the state this year. The Baptists are reported to have their entire squad of last year back and have been working hard and consistently in preparation for the ap proaching gridiron battle. Being the first game of the year it will,-of course, be the first college game which the freshmen will witness as belligerents. The cheer leaders have been exceedingly active in teaching the yells and songs to the new men and also telling them of Carolina sports manship. But this last thing cannot be too heavily driven home. The game "of the bleachers" should be just as sportsmanlike as the game on the gridiron. It has always been the custom of Carolina cheer leaders to guard against any unsportsmanlike display from their stands, but much help and cooperation is needed from the entire student body in this respect. Any unfriendly demonstration on the part of the Carolina stands, no matter how small, will have its effect on out side opinions ' formed regarding the student body. NEARLY THREE-QUARTERS OF A MILLION TEACHERS The total number of public school teachers in the United States in 1923 is estimated by the Bureau of Education to have been 729,426. This estimate does not include superintendents, supervisors, and principals. Forty-three .per cent of these teachers, or approximately 313,805, are classed as rural teachers. In this classification rural is interpreted to in elude open country, country villages, and towns not maintaining independent city systems. KANSAS CLAIMS LEADERSHIP IN EDUCATIONAL BROADCASTING A $20,000 radio broadcasting station is to be erected at Kansas State Agricul tural College, Manhattan. With the Uni versity of Kansas building a similar sta tion, the state is claiming first place in broadcasting stations in state institu tions. It is expected by staging "con tests in the air" that listeners-in will ex perience some of the thrills of the on lookers and that it may be one of the means of bridging the gap between the town and the gown."

Smith, '27, of Monroe, La., deserted Carolina this year and is meet ing classes at Tulane university. Joe McGhee, '26, and Charles O'Neill, '26, of Spartanburg, S.
