The Tar Heel solicits ad vertising from reputable concerns only. Entered as second-class mail matter at the Post Office, Chapel Hill, N. C. Saturday, January 29, 1927 PARAGRAPHICS The co-eds. Too bad that the co-eds couldn't support the anti otherwise caressing bill in the Di Senate. If they had opposed it, they might have been accused of advertising. The co-eds didn't know tilfi boxing season began what K. O. stood for. Till then, Mr. War ren had been known at the co ed house as O. K. After Thursday's issue, Mr. Al Moore comes into the office and puts the editor on the car pet. If .we looked like Al, we'd like to have our picture in every issue. It's all very well to play with the Tar Heel on Saturday, but heaven help us Tuesday. At any rate the Open Forum will have '''some lovely letters. Mr. A. K. Smith reports that the Yackety Yack will have more deadJhead stuff than ever be fore. Pictures of the faculty will be included for the first time. The co-eds were already con scious of an inferiority complex, and now, in the new Carolina Magazine comes R. K. Fowler with a burlesque, "For Men On ly." Right, woman's place is in the home,lf .they can't have any fun when they do get put. If s all very well to call a spade a spade, but why go as far as the intelligentsia and call a spade a soiled shovel? OUR POLICY Knocking is the most naive ex pression of a feeling of inade quacy, the natural outlet for an inferiority complex. The Co-eds, in spite of the fact that they are greatly outnumbered are con scious of no alarming inade quacy. Therefore, they are grate ful to the editor of the Tar Heel for turning the publication over to them, not as an occasion when they may give way to the accu mulated spite of the fall quar ter because they feel none but as; an occasion when they may show openly their gratitude for the many kindnesses of the condescending sex, and as an opening to express their desire to work for the best interests of the University, of which after all they are a part. If we go back as far as Aesop's fables we will find, of course, that it is easier to destroy than to construct, and lots more fun. Everybody knows that and we blush to revert to such time worn platitudes as a base for our op erations, but, nevertheless, we prefer boosting to knocking. Pos sibly there are necessary chang es that could be made on every hand, but until we find some thing better to substitute for the thing we destroy, we do not in tend to find fault. We are wait ing to be rushed by the Rotari ans. If this be female Babbitry make the most of it. ON CO-EDUCATION Today the co-eds are to issue a Tar Heel for the first time in Carolina history of co-education. At first they were elated at the prospect of seeing them selves in print but as they thought further they were filled with vague fears. First of all, being women, they knew that they must write Sunday supple ment stories on the usual fem inine . topics sex and love and ideal men. And having ex hausted that field they were to sigh wistfully, look dumb and lay down their pens. Then their Tar Heel would be read indul gently but skeptically and the world would know ordy what it knew before, that co-eds adore dances and dates and big strong men. "And then, the Di Senate would pass a resolution which would read at the beginning that co-education ought to be abolished, but which" would re solve itself at the end into a mild bill stating that the Di Senate disapproved of co-eds. And co-education -would be ex actly where it started. And even in the beginning it was a mixed blessing. The co eds themselves are ' the first to admit that but the fact that they are aware of any "shortcomings in their sometimes unenviable position is generally overlooked as the men students continue to cry their indifference to the whole unit of , conscientious grinds, and to proclaim their righteous indignation1 against the more attractive ones, whose A's are always gained dishonest ly by an unfair combination of the old lorelei tactics with bold flattery and a modern line. The' co-eds are not resentful of the attitude of the campus, but every now and then when one of them is aware that be cause she is a co-ed she is not wanted, because she is a co-ed she must needs rate just a little below par; because she is a co-ed she has yet to prove herself a ady she is for the minute sorry that she came to Carolina. It is not as if she were trying to usurp the power and the glory of the men. She is willing to ad mit that she cannot attain their distinction, but she is desirous of being honestly friendly with them. She came to Carolina, not to find herself a husband, but to- equip herself to endure life pleasantly and profitably with or without one. True, she is a woman. But before that she is a human being with some ambition, a measure of persis tence and a definite goal. It is her duty to develop whatever talent she may have just as it is a man's. She is on the same level with him, yet it is impor tant that they both should un derstand the other's viewpoint. It is quite possible that they nay pursue the same subject and with the same object--the' at tainment of some ultimate goal. And it is possible that there be friendliness between the. two. It is all a question of living and let ting live. The co-eds believe in the Uni versity, root -for its teams and work for its interests. They are keenly interested in its activi ties. And they have come to stay. So might they hot get a little more actual ' friendliness from the University of which they are a part?

Confidential Connie TALKS ON THE CO-EDS- Of course I think this idea of having the girls get out an edi tion of the Tar Heel is just too adorable for words -really a wonderful opportunity for them to show the campus their talents and all like that, but my dear I can't possibly resist telling you a few things about them just between us and the gatepost and don't you ever dare repeat a word of it to a single soul. If you do and it gets back to me I'll swear that I never heard it before. My reason for telling you is to help you see the girls in somethinsr besides a literary light. ' Literary light isn't really becoming to people anyway. I don't pretend to say that there aren't lots of brainy girls among us why Katherine Johnson is simply my idea of a genius. Any body can tell that when they no tice that she never gives a date to anybody except the campus literati intelligentsia though, I believe is the preferred word. What I want to get over though is the idea that we hav so much besides brains I do seem to have a terrible time making myself clear anyway, I think that there are features about these girls more attract ive than their brains. And some of them are so different from girls you meet other places? When a girl goes to a perfectly new place she is most always bound to meet with some kind of trouble and when it is Chap el Hill she comes to.'tio matter what the trouble, all she must do is find Virginia Parks and she is sure to get exactly the right advice on any subject in the world. There isn't anything Virginia doesn't know about, but at the same time she is aw fully cautious with the advice she gives. ! . , i As I said, Virginia can help you with most anything, but if its love affairs you need advice about, we have a perfect Doro thy Dix in Tobie Tanenhaus. Tobie came down here all the way from New Jersey and I really do( think she was a gift of Providence. Its just uncanny the wayshe knows when to say to a man, "Mebbe yes," "Mebbe no," and sometimes "Just meb be." . ;:-;'. One of the very cutest girls in the house' though is Sarah Purrington. Of course she doe3 make a lot of fuss and is what some people would call a tom boy, but she really is darling with her boyish bob, bow-tie anji little straw jockey cap. I would give anything in the world if she would wear that little cap to class some day so the boys can see how cute she really is. She has an awfully close rival in Miriam Sauls but of course hers is a different kind of cute ness. Miriam does so many at tractive things plays the pianoj dances, rides horse back, sings, recites well, not to mention play ing an excellent game of bridge and being a perfectly marvelous tu:tn)i!!imiiiiini"imwmnu Co-ed Cora Says SEND IT TO Johnson Cleaners Inc. for it's' "BEST IN TOWN" actress. I think it would be won derful to be so versatile. Speaking of cuteness, you just ought to know that little Edna Jones' Nixon. She is the most intriguing little thing you ever saw with her head full of nat ural golden curls. Her popular ity is almost unbelievable she has to keep a date book two weeks ahead and even with that can't keen the little boys from having fusses among themselves. Katherine Martin is the house mystery though and the funny part is that she evidently has a patent on her methods. She is always dating, '' getting tele phone calls and going to the Pick, but drags down an A on every single course Of course one can boot but one would hard ly accuse K. of that she just has a way. We have lots of other kinds of girls too one especially that I think you ' ought to know is Enita Nicks. Snicks is the nic est but most unusual combina tion you ever saw. While her scholastic interests .center a- round engineering and biology, she is a very gifted actress perfectly capable of transform ing herself from a demurely soulful bid "fashioned belle to an exotic heathen Chinee on a mo ment's notice. ' Another entirely defferent per son is Nora Carpenter she nev er misses a church service, no matter what the weather. She takes all sorts of interest in the Enworth League, keeps the church supplied with flowers and is the preacher's very right hand man. An extra sized crown will have to be ordered to accommodate all her stars. I certainly am glad I am get ting a chance to tell you about all this before Pinkie Boyd leaves town. She is going soon, much to our regret since she just naturally knows the gossip I don't care who or what it's about or how hard it is to get, she never fails to have it. She is a welcome addition to any bull session and is never too busy to have one. ; Leona 7 Lewis is interesting too. You can tell that by look ing at her, but she can't be ap reciated until you know just how sweet she is and the best way I know to find that out is to hear nwnMmnnnmmnma "Well Pressed is Well Dressed" : SWAIN TADLORING CO. i essed while you wait, we wont: make you late. nder Sutton-Alderman Drugstore; Phone No. 295 Chapel Hill i Bn8llllm8ltKtHH8H BIG REDUCTION on entire stock of.'-' ' " SHOES next fifteen days LACOCK'S Always have plenty of Kodak Film Unexpected picture chances are bound to crop up any day always have plenty of Kodak Film.
