Thursday, June 9, 1927 WELCOME The Tab Heel has the good "fortune to appear the first morn ing of the summer school. It bids you good morning and a hearty welcome to the campus of the University of North Carolina."- ' "- ; The authorities have let no pebbles lie unturned nor , have they spared a mite to prepare for the biggest and best summer school in the history of the sum mer sessions. ' Director Walker felt that the students would need a newspaper of their own, so he arranged to have the Tar Heel, the' student newspaper during the regular scholastic year, con tinued during both terms of the summer school. A balanced program has been worked out for the students dur ing the summer. Six entertain ments will be given under the auspices of the Summer School authorities. Every Sunday af ternoon the department of music will , give a musical concert. Those who delight in Terpsi chore will enjoy the weekly dances at Bynum Gymnasium. The Tar Heel wishes to ex tend a cordial welcome to the summer school students. May the work of the coming term be profitable, interesting and entertaining. r CLIPPED, J DOING A NEW ONE With this issue of the Tar HeeiA the publication attempt ing to do what has not been done in the past. In short, the TAR Heel is appearing Jor the first time in its history during the sessions of the University sum mer school. , Several years back there was published the Summer School News,' which was the official newspaper of the University summer school. It was aban doned in 1923, Since then the summer school has been without a paper issued purely for circu lation among summer school students and the faculty. The Chapel Hill Weekly ably took the place of a campus publication when the Summer School News expired. Through the cooperation of Dr. N. W. Walker, director of summer school, it has become possible to issue the Tar Heel every Thursday during both terms of the summer, school. Those in charge of the paper are working on the premises that there is a need for a campus newspaper during the summer schools just as there is during the regular scholastic year .of the University. The Tar Heel will endeavor to fulfill the needs of the students by disseminating the news and information which the , campus will demand. Somebody's been singing a new song on the campus. It goes like this: "Be it ever so humble." We didn't hear the rest. ' The Literary Lantern ' The Literary Lantern loses Telfair, Jr., and acquires Archi damus, Jr. It will continue in the Sunday Daily News, under new direction but in the same spirit. v There is. the Daily News thinks, an admirable achieve ment here. Telfair, Jr., as good many readers of this news paper know, is Addison Hib bard, dean of the school of lib eral arts at the University of North Carolina. The Li cerary Lantern is his achievement. He conceived it and he made it. It has continued its news and its comment on books and writings about the south and by southern men and women for more than three years, not only in this newspaper, but m nearly a score of others, all the way from Vir ginia to Texas. It speaks to a circulation of almost half a mil lion, which means rriany times that number of readers; and with a very considerable propor tion of them it has become a sat isfactory guide and always a pleasant companion. That is because it has had coupled with alertness and a high degree of thoroughness a sanity and a balance which have been unusual assets at a time when writing in and writing a bout the south is changing so rapidly that it is difficult to keep up with it. Mr. Hibbard has viewed this scene with the ut most good humor but with a keen and pertinent insight which was never hidden behind his warm approval, gentle raillery or frank debunking. He has been intensely sympathetic with hon esty and sincerity, and he must have given strong encourage ment to any number of young writers who wanted to fight their way through. But he has been just as insistent in hand ling the rapier with which he has pricked outworn convention alism and sectionalism, and on occasion he has resorted to the broadsword. His Literary Lan tern has been an important part of the new interest and the new effort to see the south as it is and not as it has been too often heaven knows painted. The duties of a dean of a col lege of liberal arts, to which Mr. Hibbard came from the English department at the university, have been weighing too heavily ; and so Telfair, Jr., turns over The Literary Lantern to R. W. Adams, himself a member of the same English department, who is equipped in point of both in terest -and experience to main tain a column which many read ers of the Daily News do not wish to be deprived : of. The first Lantern of Archidamus, Jr., lasf Sunday, will assure those who want its rays to continue to shine. Greensboro Daily News. Use of Liberty Walter Lippmann, editor of the New York World, made an excellent speech to members of the graduating class" at Chapel Hill, but there is one expression in the curse f his address that stands out pre-emkiently. "It is not enough to maintain liberty," he said, "but it is the peculiar mission of education to teach people how to use liberty. : The modern generation is not gov erned by the older moral tradi tion,' nor inspired by the ancient purposes of their , forefathers. The result is an immense a mount of experiment and error." Had Mr. Lippman searched through the encyclopedia for a greater menace to modern life than liberty, his quest would have been fruitless. Liberty unbridled, becomes little short of lust, and when lust becomes paramount, decay of the body politic is imminent.' Indeed, world history recalls that few people in the history of man have understood how to use liberty. : Through the ages, lib erty has been a mirage, a chim era around which centered the dreams of the downtrodden ; the hopes of the enslaved. Moses, leading the Children of Israel from the dominion of Pharaoh, gave them liberty, but the pathway toward a utilization of that liberty was beset with numerous pitfalls, from which the Israelites did not always es cape.' -;V ' ; ;' Modern examples of the ina bility of all peoples to use liberty properly is furnished by Russia and China. The former under imperial rule envisioned a day when liberty and freedom would be the lot of all its people. Came the war, the spread of red prop aganda and the murder of the ruling house. Kerensky strove valiantly to build upon the ruins of monarchy a stable and free government. He was ousted by Bolshevists, and in place of the republican government, he plan ned, there came into existence the Soviet Union. Liberty was wasted, because Russia, so used to oppression, was blind to every principle of liberty in modera tion." .' : : " .' China's case is not entirely dissimilar from that of Russia, Suddenly thrust into the midst of liberty, teeming millions find themselves intoxicated by its fumes. Our own national life is not free from corellary instances. Prohibition offers a battleground between liberty and license, with the dividing line so close as to virtually defy distinction. Mod ern youth, as Mr. Lippmann points out, freed of ancient re straint, is in much the same po sition. Graduates of the Uni versity and other institutions of learning may gain more than a minimum of wisdom from his advice. -." . j Wilmington Morning Star. WOMEN ADMITTED TO U.N. C.

Women are to be given mem bership on the faculty of the University of North Carolina for the first time in the 133 years of the institution, it was re vealed when President Harry W. Chase made the annual com mencement announcement of additions to the faculty during the final exercises. t - The precedent is broken as the result of the action of the board of trustees at their meeting here Saturday when they approved the recommendation of the exe cutive committee that women be admitted to the faculty of the school of education. "In order to facilitate the service of the school of education in advanced and graduate instruction for elementary school teachers and supervisors." This is part of a plan to en large the school of education, so that 'teachers may receive courses at the University for which they have formerly gone to such places as Columbia Uni versity, University of Chicago, and Peabody Teachers' College. These first two women in structors are Miss Sallie B. Marks, now supervisor of grades, in the public schools of La Crosse, Wis., and Miss Ceci lia H. Bason, now head of the department of primary methods in East Tennessee State Teach ers College. Both are to have the rank of assistant Professor.
