SUPPORT THE "Y" IN ITS
I '; NEW FINANCE PLAN '
The new plan of finance that the
Y, M. C. A. will adopt next fall is
perhaps the most practical plan for
securing student support that can
be evolved. . . - . .-' ;
The work done by the "Y" on
the campus is of a very valuable and
far reaching nature. The publishing
of the f reslunan bible and the student
directory fills a need that no other
agency could do, but the "Y" has
not received the support that is due
it in return for the good that it has
accomplished. This fact is due partly
to an innefficient system of canvass
ing and still more inefficient system
of collecting the pledges.
The making of a pledge to be paid
at a future date is a very, simple mat
ter, but when the time "conies to pay
up that same pledge the same old
cry goes Up every time. The "Y" is
carrying several hundred dollars in
unpaid pledges at the present time.
These accounts not only are trouble
some to collecf but they -usurp ; the
nine pr me ciencai rorce in tne 01
fice'and take up space in the records
that coultl be used more advanta
geously as records of paid pledges.
The Y. M. C. A. is run on a bud
get system and an annual canvas
furnishes the funds to continue, its
work. This budget is never over
subscribed, so that when any one
fails to pay np his pledge it becomes
necessary to cut the appropriation
of some deserving agency.
The plan to be used next; year is
to station workers at the door of the
registration hall and give each man
a card on which to make his pledge
to the 'Y' for the year. This card will
be turned in and when the man pays
his quarter bill his 'Y pledge will be
charged on it.
This system will make for a more
certain appropriation and will elimi
late considerable trouble and expense
i.i collecting.
The Tar Heel believes that the
plan is sound, practical and will
work well for the "Y". '

SPARROW SWIMMING POOL
OPENS FOR THE SUMMER
Many improvements; have been made
on the Sparrow swimming pool in prep
aration for the summer season which
opened Saturday. About 200 people vis
ited the pool on the opening day and
many sought refuge there during the in
tense heat of Sunday. ' '"'
A new application of paint has in
creased the beauty of the place, and set
tees have been placed near the springs
for convenience of the patrons.
Thorough preparation has been made
for larger crowds by doubling the capaci
ty of dressing rooms and by making an
addition of 100 bathing .suits for rental
purposes. Caps for women will be pro
vided. Sometime in June Mrs. Jack Sparrow
will give a swimming contest and to the
winner of the event she will award a
prize. '';.': '"'.. ':
A branch of the Carolina "Smoke Shop
has been installed to satisfy the appe
ties of spent swimmers. -The same con-:

available. '
- The Theta Rho fraternity initiated the

A fee of twenty-five cents will be
charged for the privilege of parking
cars on the campus of the University
of Kansas during school hours ' on
school" days, the purpose of such
action being to make the campus
more safe, for pedestrians and to les
sen the use of cars by university
students. If local authorities insti
tuted such a ruling here, the Univer
sity wouldn't have to worry about a
budget. "
; Expulsion from college of he edi
tor and a staff reporter, suspension
of the assistant editor, dismissal of
the paper's staff and suppression of
the edition containing the offending
article were the pyrotechnical con
sequences recently when the Index,
strident newspaper of Pacific tiniver
ty, reprinted an article entitled "In
Defense of Necking." Just another
proof that we have more freedom
around here than is found at most
schools.

DR MIGHT TELLS
OF DENMARK TRIP
University. Professor Has Writ
ten Series of Articles for
State Papers.
BE PUBLISHED SUNDAY
Tells About His Experience With Dan
ish People.
Dr. Edward W. Knight; Professor of
Rural Education in the University, who
has recendv returned from a year's stay
in Denmark where he studied social, eco
nomic and educational , conditions, has
written a series of articles relating his ex
periences and impression's of Danish life.
A description of his interesting visit to
the agricultural colleges i and farms of
Denmark will, appear in the state papers
tomorrow. ., ,
, Dr. Knight describes in a clever manner
several amusing incidents of his visit to
a prosperous Danish farm where he found
an irritating number of servants. Accord
ing, to the professor, ''Nothing could be
more luxurious and yet to delicate and
modest and unexposed to coarseness and
excessive pride, as breakfast in bed in a
Danish farmhouse," and after the firsj
morning, the luxury became 'for him a
real necessity. He' recommends breakfast
in bed as a cure for all the ills from
which the Committee of One Hundred
seems to suffer.
North Carolinians, should know about
the twenty-one agricultural .colleges of
Denmark, in a territory one-third as large
as North Carolina, without a single foot
ball team, military band, or class yell.
Dr. Knight tells of his visit to one of
the oldest agricultural institutions in Den
mark which offers courses, in all phases
of farming, including the breeding and
care of domestic animals and even horse
shoeing, and the classes are conducted in
a very systematic manner.
To many pf the Danes a large part of
the- United States is ; undeveloped and
primitive. One' young lady inquired of
Dr. Knight, "Where do the Indians live?,"
to which he replied that the most of those
remaining had become civilized enough to
play football and to sell real estate and
fire insurance. Th genial professor must
have relajted some wild tales of our West
ern frontier for the same young lady
dreamed that night of being attacked and
massacred by Red Skins.
In the course of his visit to the farm,
Dr. Knight" discovered that his host was
a certificated count and .that e had been
taking lessons in agriculture from a pedi
greed countess. Neither this discovery nor
the lady's dream of the Indian massacre
hastened him away, however, but the real
reason for leaving . was his scarcity of
clothing. So he left this noble family and
farm and breakfast in bed because he was
in need of a change. '
Professor G. 0. Ferguson, of the Uni
versity of Virginia, will give a lecture
on "Kaclal JJlUerences In Psychological
Traits" in room 29 Peabody building,
Friday night at 8i30 p.m,
.'. The following letter was received by
Lee Kcnnctt, chairman of the Di Senate
committee appointed to invite Represen
tative D. S. Poole here to speak his views
on .the. teaching- of evolution in " State
schools, explaining why Rep. Poole was
unable to fill his speaking engagement
Tuesday, May 18. . .
"My dear Mr. Kennett: '
" ; ' - I was ready and
waiting for a train, when I received a
'phone message that my brother-in-law
was critically ill, so I regretfully aban
doned my . trip to Chapel Hill.
The best I can do now is to send you
a synopsis of the speech I would have
made, had I gone, and this I am enclos
ing. I trust this will ' he, sufficient ex
planation, and I thank you for the cour
tesy of extending this invitation to me,
giving me the opportunity of making my
self understood.
Very truly yours,
(signed) D. S. Poole."
Below is a- brief synopsis of Represen
tative Poole's speech which the Campus
was deprived of hearing Tuesday night.
Much interest has been manifested by the
student ' body regarding Mr. Poole's
speech, and there is a general feeling of
regret on the Campus because' he was un
able to detiver it in person.
VThe reason for this Resolution - is
hereinafter explained.
''Teachers in State paid schools have
taught that the Bible is Jewish myth and
the Christian religion a superstition. I am
not a member of any organization. I
consulted not "a human on earth: ' intro
duced the Resolution from a sense of duty
to my State, for reasons hereinafter given.
. "Evolution that means improvement,
growth, advancement, progress in any line
is not questioned.
Science is not called into question.
If a new discovery is made we are not
to ask, "It is in conflict with the Bible,
but IS IT TRUE?" If it is true, it is
not in conflict with the Bible. There is
no conflict with the Bible and TRUE
science. I am not an enemy to educa
tion) or I would not have devoted forty
per cent of my. sleeping time for nearly
half a century in efforts to better equip
myself for life's duties. , . ." ,
"Briefly, I state the fundamental belief.
In the beginning God created man, and
breathed into his nostrils the breath of
life, so life is a Divine gift, and cannot
be otherwise accounted for. To deny the
ACT of 'creation is to deny the FALL,
and to deny the Fall is to deny the fact
of sin as sin. To deny sin as sin is to
deny the remedy for sin, the Redeemer
from sin, and to deny the Redeemer from
sin is to deny the life everlasting, "For
He brought life and immortality to light."
The Bible is Good's revelation of Himself
to man. God created man holy and happy,
but man, under the Covenant of Works,
fell from the estate in which he was cre
ated by sinning against God. j
"The Fall brought man into a state
of sin and misery. By the Fall man lost i
communion with God. Man became to
tally apostate. A new covenant was made
with man by his Creator, known as the
covenant of grace favor to the under
serving. By grace are ye saved, and that
not of yourselves,' it is the gift of God.
"God communicates with man through
His Word, by His Spirit and through His
works, nature. To the Christian God is
an ever-ruling Providence, a Defense,
a High Tower, a Heaveny Father, to
Whom appeal may be made and from
Whom an answer may be expected. The
Bible is the key to all true experience of
religion, and once it is lost, we wander
in af labyrinth of paganism. It must
have, come .from God,' as it' invariably
leads toward God. : Those who follow its
teachings are the model citizens of the
earth. The Modernistic idea can "never be
harmonized with . .the teachings' of the
Bible, the basis of Christian faith. To be
lieve that God set certain natural laws in
motion, and then retired, and what we
now see in all its ordered beauty resulted,
makes Him a far removed, impersonal
Being to whom appeal - is made in vaiii.
"According to this theory, man could
not have fallen, fdr, how could he have
fallen, when day by. day in every way,
he was getting better and better? By terms
of the first covenant, .man was condemned
to die for his disobedience, and by the
terms 'of the second covenant God in
carnate took upon Himself humanity, ful
filled the demands of the law, and suffer
ed the penalty due sin, and "though He
knew, no sin, He became sin for us." The
acceptance of this is Justification by Faith.
To the Modernist, religion is merely eth
ics. Altogether different. Through faith
as above outlined is the only ray of light
to - light up the, cold dark valley and
shadow of death. ; Would you extinguish
this? '
"But this does not give ground for leg
islation. Under the laws of our land every
man has equal rights, and a man has a
right to accept or reject the tenets of the
Christian religion. But if the State has
through.' its schools invaded the domain
of the Church, , when it : teaches as to
the Creator, mode of creation, and man s
final destiny, then there is ground for
legislation, for Church and State must
forever be kept separate. We all believe
this. ' , . '
"Reasons for legislation:
"First, Because parents, not the State,
are .responsible for the religious training
of their children.
"Second, Organic Evolution, speaking
as it does of Creation, the Creator, the
Bible and the Philosophy of Life, may
be classed as religion. "; , : 4
"Third, Because State schools have no
right to teach religion.
- "Fourth, Because the evolutionist has
no more right to teach his religion than
has a Christian fundamentalist to ask the
State to teach his belief. Toward all re
ligion the State should take a neutral
stand. . ,
"Fifth, Debarring 'evolution from pub
lic schools will not in any way infringe
upon the right of evolutionists to speak
or write" as they may choose, so long as
they do not do so that the expense of
the taxpayers.
I' I believe the people who built and
maintain the educational system in this
State should control it. Civilization will
totter and fall when the Christian religion
is no longer its mainstay and brace. The
teaching of some scientists of this day
will utterly . destroy Christianity if they
have their own way. ' My desire is to
prevent an impending conflict between
Church and State."

FOREST THEATRE IS
PRAISED BY BLACKMER
Well Known Theatrical Man Is One
of Finest Open Air Theatre
Critics in Country.
The Forest Theatre, in which the Caro
lina Playmaker give their out-of-door
productions, is one of the finest open-air
theatres in the country, according to Sid
ney Blackmer, who has toured with the
Ben Greet Players, acting in most of the
larger theatres in America. In the even
ing with the multi-colored lights gleam
ing on the dark green of the shrubsj
through the trees overhead, the stars in the
night blue of the sky, there is a setting
for romance or drama more suitable than
a darkened hall and the glamor of foot
lights. ' .'
Since' their first production in the For
est Theatre of Shakespeare's The Taming
of the Shrtv) in 1919, the Playmakers
have "given there Twelfth Night, Much
Ado About Nothing, As You Lite It, The
Comedy of Errors, all by Shakespeare,
Houseman's and Barkers Prunella, Sheri
dan's The Rivals, and Eleanor Gates Tlte
Poor Little Rich Girl.
The Comedy of Errors was produced
in 1921 in commemoration of the Ter
centenary of the publication of the first
Folio of Shakespeare. After the perform
ance the actors, still in costume, planted
a willow oak on the stage, in place of
a tulip tree, which had died, as a memo
rial of the occasion..
In The Taming of the Shrew, the part
of Petruchio was interpreted by Professor
Koch. This is the only time he has acted
since coming to North Carolina.
Sheridan's Tlii Rivals vas given in
1925, on the hundred and fiftieth anni
versary of the original production of the
play in Covent Garden Theatre, London,
in 1775.
'This year the Playmakers have rhosen
a play of romance and delicate sentiment
for their spring performance in the For
est Theatre. Rostand's Tlie Romancers,
which will be given on, May 28th and
29th, is a delightful satire on those youth
ful "romancers" who believe that oppo
sition and intrigue, duels and heroics, are
fundamental to true love. - The lesson
which they-learn is expressed by Syl
vette, a charming "romancer": "I know
nor that poetry and romance are in the
hearts of lovers; they have nothing to
do with other' things."
The . Administrative Board of the Col
lege df Liberai Arts decided at a meeting
Friday, that the" credits received by stu
dents for Tar Heel work would be in
Journalism instead of in English as it
has been in the" past. . Revision of the
present system of giving one-half to one
course credit for this work was consider
ed, but no arrangements were decided
upon. This question of credits will be
definitely decided at an early meeting of
the Administrative Board after the open
ing of the Fall term.
