Thursday, March SI, 1927 THE TAR HEEL Page Three The Driftwood Fire By Dave Carroll Howzatf orapurtypicture ? We put this cute little cut at the head of our column in order to lessen the tension of pre-election days. Students weary of the smiles and smirks of politicians may find the Tar Heel more interesting since these pictorial features are to be added. Some students will no doubt find it hard to under stand the relation between the cuts which will be printed and & "Driftwood Fire." But the reason why we accepted this job was that it gave us all sorts of license and so far we haven't used it. Today we have chosen to write about something which is of great interest to every Car olina student that is, a trashy nothing in particular. The columnist intended to re print a cartoon featuring "Moon Mullins" for the delight of his boy readers. But he later de cided that the appearance of Moon in this paper might be mis taken for an attempt to give un fair publicity to a certain can didate who looks like Mr. Mul lins. (We offer a prize to the student who guesses the name of the candidate. Professors and co-eds absolutely will not be allowed to make nasty compar isons between the whole student body and Mr. Mullins) . 1 Bostonian Charm! Gitcha gun. The following appeared as an advertisement of a book published in New Eng land recently: Warning! "People all around you are us ing the mighty force of magnet ism to get what they want. Over 700,000 copies of this great work have been sold ; thousands more are being sold weekly, It is quite likely that someone is using mag netism on you. So, if for no oth er reason than to protect your self, you should master the se crets of magnetism without delay.",--";, The Student Council has sent in a rush order for this potent means of convincing enemies. . Niggahs Up Nawth Some heartless schemer in At lantic City has been swindling negroes by the sale of various cure-all "powders." Among the brands of this powerful medi cine are: Guffer Dust (New Moon) "No. 1 for $50.; Happy Dust, $40; Black Cat's Wish bone, -$1000; Easy Life Pow ders, $100; Tying Down Goods, $50; Chasing Away Goods, $50; King Solomon's Marrow, $1,000; Boss Fix Powders, $15; Buzzard Nest, $100; Black Cat's Ankle Dust, $500. .. The New York World offers this explanation of these trouble chasing roots and herbs: " 'Bringing Back Powders,' it was learned from credulous res idents in the negro quarter here, are designed to bring an errant wife or errant husband back to the fireside on the trot. 'Tying Down Powders', administered to the object of one's affections have the effect of making your sweetie come closer to you. 'Chasing Away Goods' does just the opposite. It makes undesir able lovers leave your presence pronto, never to return. 'Boss Fix Powders' are the best in the world when you want an extra vacation, a, raise, shorter hours, or an executive position." The names appeal to us. The Student Council is said to be try ing feverishly to exchange a box of ','Chasing Away Powders" for wise "King Solomon's Marrow." Owners of self-help honor box es are clamoring for the "Tying Down Goods." - The infirmary here is being mobbed by students who demand "Easy Life Pow ders." 1 Yet, anybody who cannot read tragedy in that advertisement should have the letters raised for him. Political News The columnist wishes to com mend these men, or their friends, for the information which they have voluntarily given him concerning the politi cal support of the following candidates : " Judson F. Ashby, Billy Ferrell, Bill Sharpe, IL.V. Chappell, Joe Bobbitt, Galen; El liott, Phil Dawson, Charlie Lips comb, "Swampy" Twif ord, "Red" Ellison, "Soap" Sandlin, Bill Adams and .Walter Kelley. This information, which in nowise binds these men into a ticket cannot be furnished .;; at this late time for lack of space. Although we were requested to publish the news in this edition, it must be reserved until Satur day's 'issue.

If the staff were larger, probably the cam pus could read a better Bucca neer. v ' However, with all its faults and defects, the funny thing is extremely well balanced. The make-up, which quite often means a great deal in regards to the potency of a college comic, is good. And the exchanges "which play hide and seek among the advertisements take unto themselves a certain degree of pertinence. Considering everything, the Dead Number is about as good as the average Buccaneer quite a bit better than many college comics and quite a bit worse than some we have read.
