When, spring elections are over, time will then be to settle down for a good case of spring fever. Politics, not dead or driven from the green earth, will hold sway here again today between the hours of ten and four. It is the duty of every loyal Caro lina man to pray and then pray again to J. Pluvius to desist while the high school lads and lassies are here Thurs day and Friday. Comes more flaying of Al from Winston-Salem. . It begins to look like if Smith is wise he had best go to the Camel City and smoke a few peace fags with the Forty Immortal insti gators. Being young and green, we" aren't amind to get mixed up in the row between some of the leading state dailies cropping out of the. Forty Im mortals fiasco, but it sho' do look lak somebody's in fer a sitback, as Uncle Josh would put it. One college editor, singing his swan song, says after the experience he feels qualified to say-anything about college " journalism' that he wishes. Well, probably so, Mr. Editor, but if that is about all you have gained from your labors, the time has been wasted. NOW AIN'T THAT NICE! Women, as Uncle Joshua has been prone to aver time and time again, are queer critters. The , lot of them are wonderful; and we know some who make one marvel and marvel day after day. They fascinate. Then times are when they irritate because of their fickleness and inconsistency. But if they be just a bit inconsis tent, what of it? Well, it is hard to say, particularly when it treats of woman suffrage. You have already read the apology, gladly given, that the Tab Heel offered a certain young lady, resident student here at the Uni versity of North Carolina, the insti tution fondly referred to by liberal ists as the "Wisconsin of the South," when the said young person became highly indignant and insulted because of a reference made in this worthy journal about her political activities on the day of campus elections. It seems that this young lady felt griev ance towards the Tar Heel when it published in its election extra that her car had been active during the -day. Now she says this was untrue, and, moreover, "I refuse to have you, in your paper, make an untrue, state ment and I demand a public apology." Naturally, we gave the "public apology." Yet what if the miss was politick ing? What if she did use her car to convey voters to the polls? (Mind you, mis3 this i3 supposition yea, hypothetical.) Isn't this a constitu tional right? For what did the suf fragettes labor, politic, wheedle, bull doze and revolt over an endless stretch of. years? The Nineteenth Amend ment of the Constitution of the United States doe3 it mean anything to you, Miss Indignant? One remembers the tales vividly pic tured of how the woman suffragettes braved rain, sleet, snow. and all the cruel rigors of the elements to picket the White House in fighting for en franchisement. From the time when Mistress Margaret Brent demanded a voice in the affairs of the Maryland colony in 1647 to that of the more re cent strenuous activities of Dr. Anna Howard Shaw and Mrs. Carrie Chap man, Catt it has been a death-dealing, a do-or-die struggle to win the prec ious right of women participation in governmental affairs in politics. And this lady was insulted because it was inferred that she was doing what her fore-mothers had battle to gain! Whew, shades of Charlotte .Carmiehael Stopes, Susan B. Anthony and the brave old Senator Sargent of California, who first introduced in Congress the Nineteenth Amendment! Yet she was indignant because she was accused of performing a consti tutional right. These women ! OPEN FORUM WHY NOT? Thursday and Friday the high school, debaters will be here. They come as the guests of the University and it is hoped that it will not be as it has been for the past few years, that the entertaining of these high school girls is left to the lower rank ing teachers in the University and the people of the town who are in no way connected with the University. There are those who have better ac commodations and can much more easily have these girls than we who have to move our family out of these rooms. Why should they not some time do their part to entertain girls asked here by Mr. Chase, their presi dent, as guests of the university which employs them and not leave it all to us associated professors' families and town people I MRS. R. B. LAWSON. MOUNT AIRY TEAM LOSES TO FROSH University Freshman Win Good Game by 6 to 1 Score "Lard" Money, ace of Coach Bob Sides' staff of Mount Airy high school hurlers lost a heartbreaker to the freshmen tossers on Emerson field Saturday by a 6 to 1 count. Money's performance was ably seconded by Johnny Hurt, ranking number one on the first year mound corps. Each hurl er gave up but three bingles in the best freshman cantest seen here this season. - The Granite City star breezed along for three cantos with only nine men toeing the rubber, then followed the historic fourth in which the freshmen scored five runs on two free passes, two errors, and two bingles. Crouch started the frame by working Money for a walk with the count standing 3-2. Rand then drew life on Coble's error of a grounder. Crouch going to second. The second sacker then counted when Money overthrew the keystone sack in an attempt to pick Crouch off the bag. Hinton followed with the first hit of the game, and scored Rrand "from second. Money pitched to Whitehead i before Jim Creed, All-State tackle two years ago, cpuld get in position after an attempt to catch Hinton off the second sack, and the freshman guardian poked one into right for two bases, pushing Hin ton to third. Hinton and Whitehead both scored when "Coon" Creed threw to second and his brother wasn't there, Shex, who had walked, went to third on the play, and scored the fifth tally a moment later on a fielder choice. The rest of the game was nip and tuck until Crouch made another, the sixth count. Hurt weathered three perfect cantos and struck out four of the visitors. Each club turned in three miscues, Rand being responsible for all of the f rosh bungles,, while the errors of the Granite City club were apportioned to three men. Mrs. E. M. Sentman and Mr. Jack Sentman of Statesville were the guests of Miss Sara Sentman over the week-end. Mr. Sentman attended the Senior1 dance while here. Miss Louisa Norwood of Marion, S. C. was the guest of Miss Mildred EIrod for several days last week. A Last Thrust By 7. Transition There exists a gulf between the job of columnist and that of- editor which must somehow be bridged. Let this "Last Thrust" of the columnist, then, be the nature of a transition. The Columnist Columnists are mediaeval jesters transplanted into the midst of modern life. To them falls the task of fur nishing "amusement for the Great A merican Reading Public, since verily the aforementioned G.A.R.P. is the sovereign lord of today - and sov ereign lords must ever be entertain ed. Wherefore let the columnist per form his mad antics, let him attempt the humorous quip, let him discovr er the ridiculous aspect of some mo mentous question arid cast it before the public eye. Let him ever invite laughter and let him never fail to bring it forth, for the jester exists only so long as he produces mirth in the heart of his king. The true colmunist fails in his vo cation if he deserts the cause of com edy. Never is he allowed to become serious even for the moment. If he wishes to promulgate an inherently serious conviction, even that must be done under the guise of htfmor or of mockery. The columnist like the jester and the clown is never him self but always the comedian. Such is the conception of a col umnist and such a one has this col umnist striven to be throughout the past year.. If . he has been able to bring forth a few chuckles every Tuesday by his "Random Thrusts," if he has in a small way lightened the heavy reading of a more serious type, if he has produced a smile or two over the foibles of the campus this his year's work has been successful and he may retire satisfied. If not, why then he retires anyhow and his very retirement should bring satisfaction! So much for the columnist. - And the Editor And as f or ... the editor why the! poor editor is often as narrowly con fined by a set of chain-like concep tions diametrically opposite to those binding the columnist. The editor must always be serious. Upon his shoulders and his editorial comments so they say lie. the burdens of the campus. He must ever strive for the improvement of the Alma Mater. Weakening institutions must be bol stered up; radical tendencies must be cropped in the bud; the campus must be protected, guided, and saved. Every word from the mouth of the editor is taken seriously; every line from his pen is regarded as a matter for serious consideration. Were he to lapse into a mood of frivolity or were he to make an attempt at light satire -why the humor and satire would be taken as want of stability or as serious attack! The dignity of editorial office must be upheld. That is all very well, but when the dignity of editorial office is to be upheld by a columnist then there must be some change, some sort of transition. An actor who regularly plays Falstaff can not be, taken seriously when he first plays Hamlet. For is a Court Jester promoted to Privy Councillor in one day. There must be transition. Bridging the Gulf Between columnist and editor there does lie a gulf. Now what shall be the transitional bridge that leads a cross? First, the recognition that there is a gulf therein does the col umnist achieve a note of seriousness and the first plank is laid across the gulf. Secondly, an attempt at trans ition, toward which purpose this "Last Thrust" is aimed therein does the columnist evolve a new method and style and the second plank is laid alongside the first. Thirdly, and most important of all perhaps, a bold jump into space from the realm of column izing to the field of editorializing which jump will be made in Saturday's issue. And now let us hope in truly Kiplirigesque fashion that "when the Cellar's last seepings have seeped, and the Spearman's last thrust has been made," the present columnist will find himself safely ensconced in the editorial chair! With one last intermingling of col umnist licence and editorial erudition, we should .like to massacre Milton's famous lines: "The youth arose and twitched his mantle blue, Tomorrow to fresh woods and pastures new" so that they, may more aptly fit our Last Thrust: The youth arose and dipped his pen ' in inky blue, Saturday to fresh columns and duties new. i SPEAKS TONIGHT if J COURTESY DURHAM MORNING HERALD" L.

Gentlemen: Two years ago my wife gave jrie an expensive pipe. I smoked it aT great - deal for two or three weeks, put it aside, then began smoking. it again. This time it was very strong Veterans told me that it had been smoked too hard for a new pipe and should be put away. v 1 he nine was inH a short time ago I got it out and smoked one of the common brands of tobacco in it. The results were disappointing. , I told the druggist of ray experience with it. He asked if I had tried Er;ge worth. I told him I never had. I fol lowed hi3 suggestion, and I am honest when I say that it has rtord , sweetness to the pipe, and has made me wonaer. was it the pipe or the brand of tobacco that cause! me to lay it away for the long period of time? As a novice, I prefer Edgeworth. I am going to stick to it, as I feel satis fied that there is none better on the market.
