OPINION  AND  COMMENT 


INTERNATIONAL      The  occasion  wliicli  recently  wit- 
GOOD  WILL  nessed   the  meeting  here  of  two 

exchange  professors  from  foreign, 
countries  to  the  United  States  could  do  no  less  than 
quicken  one's  consciousness  of  the  new  era  in  inter- 
national communication  of  ideas.  Such  an  occasion 
is  something  more  than  educationally  significant ; 
indeed,  there  is  about  it  an  air  of  historical  signifi- 
cance. The  one  visitor  was  Dr.  Shosuke  Sato,  the  third 
of  the  American-Japanese  exchange  professors,  who 
was  at  the  time  giving  a  course  of  lectures  here; 
the  other  was  Dr.  Karl  Kathgen,  the  eighth  incumbent 
of  the  Kaiser  Wilhelm  exchange  professorship.  It 
happened — though  in  this  era  of  international  com- 
munication the  hajjpening  cannot  justly  be  described 
as  accidental — that  Dr.  Kathgen  was  for  eight  years 
(1882-1890)  professor  of  political  science  at  the  Im- 
perial University  in  Tokyo,  Japan.  iSTo  longer  can 
roll  trippingly  under  the  tongue,  in  face  of  such  a 
conjuncture,  the  familiar  lines  of  Kipling: 
■■'  East  is  East,  and  West  is  West, 
And  never  the  twain  shall  meet." 
For  such  a  meeting,  nowadays,  symbolizes  the  arrival 
of  the  cosmopolitan  spirit  which  has  already  set  its 
mark  upon  the  face  of  this  century. 

During  Dr.  Sato's  visit  here,  attention  was  called 
conspicuously  to  the  memorable  fact  that  it  was  under 
the  regime  of  a  son  of  this  University  as  Secretary  of 
the  Navy,  William  A.  Graham,  that  was  prepared 
Commodore  Perry's  expedition  to  Japan  in  1853 
which,  as  the  lecturer  himself  graciously  observed, 
marked  the  beginning  of  the  era  in  which  the  real 
Japan  has  emerged  from  international  obscurity  into 
the  charmed  circle  of  world-powers.  In  this  day  of 
Mexican  imbroglios,  exclusion  acts,  and  rumors  of 
Japanese  designs,  i't  is  refreshing  to  have  the  air  once 
more  cleared  with  the  message  of  peace,  good-will, 
and  friendship  brought  by  Dr.  Sato.  And  to  an 
audience  of  typical  Americans,  profoundly  interested 
in  problems  of  political  economy,  it  is  invigorating 
and  enlightening  to  hear  the  pregnant  declaration  of 
Dr.  Eathgen  that  stability  in  trade  relations  among 
the  great  industrial  and  manufacturing  nations,  com- 
peting for  place  in  world-markets,  and  not  the  ideal- 
istic utterances  of  the  perfervid  orator,  is  the  true 
guaranty  for  the  maintenance  of  world-peace. 


Assuredly  the  time  has  come  to  raise  the  vital 
question  whether  the  nations  of  the  world  are  not 
sufticiently  versed  in  the  arts  of  self-control  to  cease 
preying  upon  and  oppressing  one  anotJher.  In  order 
to  live  together  as  "  fellow-sharers  in  a  world's  civili- 
zation," it  is  imperative  for  nations  in  their  cor- 
porate capacity  to  exercise  the  fundamental  princi- 
ples of  morality  which  the  individual  citizen  so  ar- 
dently professes.  It  is  peculiarly  needful  for  Ameri- 
cans, in  the  hour  of  a  grave  international  crisis,  to 
ponder  these  things.  For,  as  Dr.  Nicholas  Murray 
Butler  has  recently  said,  "  We  Americans  need  the 
international  mind  as  much  as  any  people  ever  need- 
ed it.  We  shall  never  be  able  to  do  justice  to  our 
better  selves  or  to  take  our  true  part  in  the  modem 
world  until  we  acquire  it.  We  must  learn  to  sup- 
press rather  than  exalt  those  who  endeavor,  whether 
through  ignorance,  selfishness,  or  malice,  to  stir  up 
among  us  antagonism  to  other  nations  and  to  other 
peoples.  If  we  are  to  take  the  place  which  many  of 
us  have  fondly  hoped  America  would  take,  at  the 
very  forefront  of  the  movement  for  the  establishment 
of  a  world  peace  based  upon  even-handed  justice,  we 
must  first  learn  to  rule  our  tongues  and  to  turn  deaf 
ears  to  those  who,  from  time  to  time,  endeavor  to  lead 
us  away  from  the  i>ath  of  international  rectitude  and 
international  honor  with  false  cries  of  a  pseudo-pa- 
triotism." 

The  visit  of  such  picked  men  as  Dr.  Sato  and  Dr. 
Kathgen  has  a  two-fold  significance.  To-day,  they 
convey  to  us  the  results  of  the  most  advanced  knowl- 
edge and  refined  research  in  regard  to  the  conditions 
and  problems  of  their  respective  countries.  Tomorrow 
they  will  convey  to  'their  respective  countries  the  im- 
pression of  the  trained  observer  in  regard  to  the 
United  States,  her  spirit,  her  people,  her  institu- 
tions. This  reciprocal  relation  can  only  result  in 
benefit  to  both  the  nations,  the  one  which  sends  and 
the  one  which  receives ;  and  this  is  guaranteed  by  the 
quality  and  high  principles  of  the  men  chosen  to  fill 
this  exceedingly  important  position.  A  deepening 
and  broadoiing  of  the  streams  of  world-culture, 
the  discouragement  of  strife  between  nations,  the 
stimulation  of  friendly  rivalry  in  trade  relations  in 
the  markets  of  the  world,  the  cultivation  and  foster- 
ing of  the  international  spirit — these  consequences,

we  venture  to  hoiJe,  shall  eventuate,  these  mutual 
benefits  accrue,  in  God's  good  time,  from  the  ex- 
change of  these  ministers  of  good  will. — A.  H. 

nnn 

THE  LOCAL  Jn  many  towns  in  ISTorth  Carolina 
ASSOCIATION  there  are  groups  of  alumni  who  are 
not  organized  into  a  local  alumni 
association.  This,  obviously,  should  not  be;  for  a 
properly  organized  association  not  only  brings  the 
alumni  together  for  an  occasional  social  evening,  but 
promotes  the  welfare  of  ;the  University  and  increases 
the  influence  for  good  of  its  members  in  the  com- 
munity. 

Organization  in  and  of  itself  is  of  no  special  value. 
T!he  association  must  work  for  something.  It  must 
have  some  definite  purpose.  Fortunately  the  field  of 
activity  is  wide.     The  association  can 

(1)  Keep  potentially  alive  and  active  the  power 
represented  by  the  local  association. 

(2)  Keep  the  General  Association  informed  con- 
cerning the  attitude  of  the  people  toward  the  Uni- 
versity. 

(3)  Bring  before  and  keep  before  the  people  of 
the  community  correct  ideas  concerning  the  work  and 
purposes  of  the  University. 

(4)  Support  the  work  of  the  General  Association 
for  the  University  by  co-operating  heartily  with  it. 

(5)  Keep  the  alumni  informed  as  to  the  activ- 
ities of  the  members  of  the  local  association  through 
the  Keview. 

(6)  Keep  in  touch  with  promising  young  men 
who  should  have  an  opportunity  to  secure  a  college 
education,  and  help  them  to  secure  it. 

(7)  Take  an  active  interest  in  co-operating  with 
the  Bureau  of  Extension  and  help  to  make  its  work 
effective  among  the  people  of  the  locality. 

(8)  Devote  time  and  energy  to  local  affairs,  par- 
ticularly educational. 

The  alumni  of  the  University  scattered  throughout 
the  State  constitute  the  best  argument  for  or  against 
the  sujjport  which  it  receives  from  the  public.  Upon 
the  local  association  falls,  in  large  part,  the  responsi- 
bility of  determining  whether  this  argument  shall  be 
favorable  or  unfavorable  to  alma  mater. 

nnn 

FOR  EXAMPLE  Qn  Friday,  March  20,  the  State- 
wide contest  for  the  Aycock  Me- 
morial Clip  projected  by  the  High  School  Debating 
Union  will  be  held  in  one  hundred  and  fifty  towns  list- 
ed elsewhere  in  the  Review.  This  occasion,  which  is  a 
development  of  thei  work  of  the  Dialectic  and  Philan- 
thropic  Societies  extended  to  the  High  Schools  of 


Xortli  Carolina,  will  furnish  the  alumni  a  specific 
object  in  which  it  is  important  that  they  interest 
themselves.  There  are  several  things  which  they  can 
do  to  make  the  contests  successful.  They  can  give 
them  publicity.  They  can  attend  as  individuals  or 
in  a  body.  In  the  event  that  both  the  local  teams 
win,  they  can  aid  them  in  planning  for  the  trip  to 
'Chapel  Hill.  Whatever  the  outcome,  they  can  rally 
to  the  support  of  the  University  in  its  effort  to  mag- 
nify the  importance  of  vital  public  discussion  in 
every  nook  and  cranny  in  North  Carolina.

COMMENCE- 
MENT   1914 


Commencement  this  year  begins  on 
Sunday,  May  31st,  and  ends  on  Wed- 
nesday, June  3rd.  The  address  on 
Wednesday  will  be  made  by  Secretaiy  of  Commerce, 
W.  C.  Redfield.  The  Baccalaureate  sermon  will  be 
jjreached  by  Dr.  Edgar  P.  Hill,  of  Chicago,  and  the 
Y.  M.  ,C.  A.  sermon  by  Dr.  0.  E.  Brown,  of  Nash- 
ville, Tenn.  This  is  a  group  of  notably  fine  speakers. 
Each  of  them  is  a  man  who  has  something  to  say  and 
knows  how  to  say  it.  Their  pi-esence  gives  assurance 
that  the  high  standard  of  past  commencements  will  be 
splendidly  ui^held.  The  main  feature  of  the  1914 
commencement,  however,  will  be  the  alumni  them- 
selves. This  is  to  be  a  Home-coming  Commencement 
and  everybody  is  coming.  Two  of  the  classes  that 
hold  reunions — 1904  and  1909 — have  been  at  work 
for  sometime  with  the  idea  of  getting  ercnj  member 
hacl\  There  is  every  indication  that  on  June  3rd, 
1914,  the  campus  will  hold  the  greatest  gathering  of 
Carolina  men  in  its  history. 

nnn 

IMPORTANT     Dates  of  importance  to  the  University 
DATES  and  the  public,  which  is  invited  to  the 

Hill,  are  those  for  the  forthcoming 
lectures  on  March  25,  by  Alfred  Noyes,  tlie  English 
poet,  and  President  Vincent  of  the  University  Minne- 
sota, the  deliverer  of  the  McJSTair  lectures  for  1914, 
April  15-18.  Interest  in  hearing  these  distinguished 
visitors  is  widespread  among  the  student  body,  hav- 
ing been  voiced  in  a  special  editorial  comment  by 
the  Tar  Heel.  Many  alumni  are  also  planning  to 
be  present.

THE  UNIVERSITY    The    University   finely   sustained 
AND  SOCIAL  i.fg  share  in  the  splendid  Confer- 

SERVICE  ence  for   Social   Service  held   in

and  Professors  Raper  and  Walker,  all  of  whom  made 
reports.  At  the  Social  Service  Couference  that  fol- 
lowed. University  meu  took  an  active  part  in  dis- 
cussioiis.  Governor  Locke  Craig,  Dr.  J.  Y.  Joyner, 
W.  H.  Swift,  C.  E.  Maddry,  A.  M.  Scales,  R.  T).  W. 


Connor,  A.  W.  McAllister,  J.  Sprunt  Hill,  and  Act- 
ing President  E.  K.  Graham  had  prominent  places  on 
the  programme.  Many  University  alumni,  leaders 
in  civic  and  social  reform  from  various  points  in  the 
State,  attended  the  meeting. 


SHALL  NORTH  CAROLINA  INITIATE  AND  REFER? 


Thirty  Thousand  Tar  Heels  Will  Have  to  Decide  the  Question  March  Twentieth 


Shall  the  Constitution  of  North  Carolina  be  so 
aniende<l  as  to  allow  the  Initiative  ami  Referendum 
in  State- wide  legislation  ^  This  question  will  he  dis- 
cussed on  ilarch  20th  hy  six  liundi-ed  student-de- 
haters  in  the  one  hundred  and  fifty  schools  having 
membership  in  the  High  School  Debating  Union,  and 
the  discussions  will  be  listened  to  with  interest  by 
fully  thirty  thousand  ?fortli  ^Carolinians.  Erom 
^lanteo,  Elizabeth  City,  New  Bern,  and  Wilmington, 
in  the  East,  to  Asheville,  Heiidersonville,  Brj'son 
City,  and  Andrews,  in  the  West,  the  high  schools  are 
everywhere,  in  every  section  of  the  State,  getting 
ready  for  this  gigantic  struggle  in  debate. 

The  High  School  Debating  Union  is  carried  on  un- 
iler  the  auspices  of  the  Dialectic  and  Philanthropic 
Literary  Societies  and  the  Bureau  of  Extension  of 
the  University.  A  large  amount  of  material  on  the 
question  to  be  discussed,  including  one  sixty-page 
Extension  Series  publication,  and  several  thousand 
■Congressional  speeches  and  documents,  has  been  sent 
to  the  schools  free  of  charge.  Doubtless  on  the  20th 
of  March  more  intelligent  consideration  and  lively 
discussion  will  be  given  to  the  "  Initiative  and  Refer- 
endum ''  in  Xorth  Carolina  than  has  ever  been  given 
it  on  any  date  in  any  other  State  of  'the  American 
Union. 

Every  school  in  the  Union  has  been  placed  in  a 
group  for  the  triangular  debates  on  fhis  date.  Each 
school  puts  out  two  teams,  one  on  the  affirmative,  and 
the  other  on  the  negative.  The  affirmative  team  de- 
bates at  home,  and  the  negative  team  is  sent  to  an- 
(►ther  school  of  the  same  triangle.  Thus  a  debate  is 
held  at  every  school  on  the  same  date.  Every  school 
which  wins  both  of  its  triangular  debates  will  send 
both  teams  to  Chapel  Hill  on  April  3rd  in  the  final 
contest  for  the  Aycock  .Xfemorial  Cu]i — the  prize 
which  has  been  generously  prDviih'd  fm-  the  school

WHAT  THE  NEW  YORK  ALUMNI  DO  WHEN  PLAYTIME  COMES 


Two  University  alumni  who  dwell  in  New  York 
City  were  discussing,  recently,  the  recreations  of 
other  members  of  itheir  colony ;  and,  as  a  result,  one 
of  the  two  had  the  whim  to  find  out  just  how  the 
University  of  North  Carolina  men  in  the  metropolis 
actually  did  spend  their  time  when  off  duty.  He  made 
the  inquiry,  and  he  learned  this  fact :  thalt  the  recre- 
ations of  the  alumni,  for  the  most  part,  were  not  such 
as  pertained  to  city  life  any  more  than  to  life  in  the 
country  or  the  small  town.  Theatregoing,  which  is 
ordinarily  ;thought  of  as  the  favorite  form  of  pleasure 
in  a  city,  ranks  first  with  none  of  them;  it  is  merely 
a  "  filler-in." 

The  New  Yorker,  though,  has  this  advantage  over 
him  who  lives  in  a  rural  or  semi-rural  section,  that  a 
wide  variety  of  sports  and  amusements  is  open  to 
him.  In  fact  it  has  often  been  remarked  that,  even 
among  cities  of  the  first  class.  New  York's  situation 
is  remarkable  in  this  respect.  The  sea  is  only  half  an 
hour  or  so  away  from  the  center  of  the  city;  the  Hud- 
son, the  East  Eiver  and  the  Harlem  River  are  close 
at  hand  for  the  rowers  and  canoeists ;  there  are  hun- 
dreds of  tennis  courts  in  the  city  and  the  nearby  sub- 
urbs; golf  courses  flourish  on  every  side,  and  more 
are  being  built  all  (the  time ;  miles  and  miles  of 
smooth  roads  are  open  to  automobilists;  numberless 
amateur  organizations  find  a  place  for  football  and 
baseball  matches;  in  Central  Park,  Van  Cortlandt 
Park,  Prospect  Park  and  on  Staten  Island  are  ponds 
and  lakes  for  the  skaters ;  it  is  only  a  short  journey  to 
ithe  trout  streams  in  New  Jersey  and  New  York  State ; 
and,  in  these  dance-mad  days,  there  are  literally  thou- 
sands of  places  where  one  may  exhibit  his  grace,  or 
the  lack  thereof,  at  the  hesitation  waltz,  the  one-step, 
the  tango  and  the  other  new-fangled  steps.     (By  the 


Itime  this  appears  in  print,  there  will  doubtless  be  an 
entirely  new  list.) 

These  things  for  those  who  want  to  participate. 
For  those  who  merely  want  to  look  on,  of  course, 
there  are  the  football  games  in  the  city  or  in  easy 
reach,  the  tennis  and  polo  and  hockey  tournaments, 
Ithe  Big  League  baseball  games  both  in  New  York  and 
Brooklyn,  the  "  movies,"  the  concerts  and  the  opera, 
and  theatres  and  music  halls  without  end. 

Then  there  are  the  social  diversions  that  are  about 
the  same  everywhere — dinners,  bridge  parties,  and  the 
like — and  the  University  alumni  are  active  in  tha't 
direction.  One  form  of  amusement,  if  by  courtesy 
it  may  be  called  such,  is  the  public  or  semi-public 
dinner.  Probably  there  was  never  such  a  place  as 
New  York  for  dinners  and  after-dinner  oratory.  Be- 
fore one  has  lived  many  years  in  the  city,  even  though 
he  lays  no  claim  to  being  a  "  prominent  citizen,"  the 
question  is  noit  how  many  he  shall  attend,  but  how 
many  he  can  escape. 

Judge  Augustus  Van  Wyck,  the  President  of  the 
New  York  alumni  association,  though  he  is  around 
seventy  years  old  now,  is  as  vigorous  and  alert  as  a 
youngster.  He  is  an  enthusiastic  automobilist,  and 
enjoys  looking  at  baseball  games  and  polo  matches. 
George  Gordon  Battle  is  so  busy  in  the  law  courts 
that,  in  the  winter  be  has  little  opportunity  for  out- 
door recreation.  In  warm  months,  though,  he  plays 
golf  with  great  regularity;  and  throughout  the  year 
he  is  a  prominent  figure  in  the  social  life  of  the  city. 
Dr.  Charles  Baskerville  is  another  who  is  active  in 
society ;  and  he,  too,  is  devoted  to  golf. 

Perhaps  golf  is  the  spoiit  which  has  the  highest 
favor  among  the  New  York  alumni.  Francis  A. 
Gudger,  James  A.  Gwyn,  Logan  D.  Howell,  Louis  G.

Toy,  Victor  Whitlock — these  are  all  devotees  of  the 
game.  It  is  second  choice  with  Ealph  H.  Graves, 
whose  favorite  diversion  is  fishing,  and  with  Louis 
Graves,  who  likes  tennis  best.  Until  recently  it  was 
first  with  A.  Marvin  Carr,  hult  now,  his  friends  de- 
clare, Mr.  Carr  enjoys  nothing  so  much  as  propelling 
a  baby  carriage  along  the  upper  stretches  of  Park 
and  Fifth  Avenues. 

Thomas  Hill,  formerly  of  Hillsboro,  is  now  partner 
in  a  concern  which  conducts  a  number  of  public-tennis 
courts  on  the  Upper  West  Side;  and,  though  he  does 
not  claim  to  be  an  expert  player,  he  has  acquired  an 
extensive  knowledge  of  the  theory  of  the  game.  Some- 
times, in  his  leisure  hours,  in  the  tennis  season  he  may 
be  found  diverting  himself  in  the  instruction  of  the 
youths  who  patronize  his  courts. 

Unquestionably  the  most  enthusiastic  tennis  fol- 
lower among  the  alumni  is  Preston  Gumming.  He  has 
a  wide  acquaintance  among  the  crack  players  of  the 
country,  and  has  made  a  good  record  in  a  number  of 
tournaments.  Dr.  Henry  C.  Cowles  often  plays  with 
his  fellow-physicians  on.  the  court  adjacent  to  the 
Woman's  Hospital.  Reston  Stevenson  is  another 
tennis  entliusiast.  And  both  he  and  Mr.  Cumming  are 
experts  at  all  kinds  of  water  sports. 

x\lfred  W.  Haywood,  Jr.,  has  perhaps  the  most 
catholic  itaste  as  far  asdiversionsareconcerncd  among 
the  alumni  in  New  York.  He  is  exceedingly  fond  of 
tennis,  which  he  plays  two  or  three  times  a  week  in 
the  spring  and  summer;  he  goes  swimming  and  ca- 
noeing whenever  the  opportunity  offers ;  he  plays  golf 
some;  and  recently,  having  joined  Squadron  A,  New 
York's  crack  cavalry  organization,  he  has  become  a 
skilful  horseback  rider.  His  brother,  T.  Holt  Hay- 
wood, is  more  attached  to  water  sports  than  to  any 


other  kind ;  but  in  the  closed  winter  season  he  goes  in 
for  gymnastics. 

Eufus  L.  Patterson  is  fond  of  auitomobiling,  as  are

Westchester  County,  dabbles  with  tennis  and  golf,  and 
is  fond  of  dancing.  With  Don,  Richardson  music,

THE  MERCER-HURREY  MEETINGS 


E.  C.  Mercer  and  Charles  D.  Hurrey  came  into 
the  life  of  the  University  aud  touched  it  at  many 
points  of  contact,  talking  straight  from  the  shoulder 
and  raising  the  faith  of  men  in  God  and  in  human 
life.  "  Ted  "  Mercer,  as  he  is  affectionately  known 
in  the  universities  of  the  East,  is  convicted  with  a 
sense  of  message  for  college  men.  Like  the  Ancient 
Mariner  he  must  tell  his  story.  He  would  burn  into 
the  hearts  of  young  men  the  fact  of  the  evolution  of 
sin.  When  temptation  charms  and  lures  with  its 
pleasures  in  the  subtle  beginnings,  Mercer  challenges 
the  college  man  to  look  at  the  other  end  of  the  line. 
You  can't  sow  wild  oats  and  get  aw'ay  with  it.  He 
put  his  i^lea  for  a  clean  life  on  the  basis  of  earning 
capacity  and  highest  eificiency  and  then  showed  the 
way  through  Christ  to  a  victorious  fight  for  character. 
To  the  three  hundred  freshmen  present  he  said  these 
significant  words :  "When  you  are  kidded  by  the  older 
men  as  being  green  in  the  things  of  life,  tell  them  for 
Ted  Mercer  that  you  had  rather  be  green  than  be 
rotten."  Seven  hundred  men  packed  in  Gerrard 
Hall  responded  to  the  thought  with  spontaneous  ap- 
plause. Mr.  Mercer  delivered  two  addresses :  "  The 
Fight  of  Every  College  Man — Purity,"  and  "  Down 
and  Out  and  Up  Again."  In  the  first  address  he 
talked  straight  out  on  the  facts  of  gambling,  drink- 
ing, and  sexual  impurity,  both  secret  and  social.  Tt 
was  simple,  practical,  clean,  and  uplifting.  In  the 
second  address  Mr.  Mercer  told  the  story  of  his  life, 
how  he  started  in  the  ways  of  the  crowd  to  be  popu- 
lar in  college  and  ended  in  the  gutter  of  New  York 


City.  The  story  of  his  come  back  is  both  a  warning 
and  an  inspiration  to  young  men.  "  Don't  try  it, 
fellows,  I  would  to  God  I  had  the  chance  to  start  in 
college  again — the  scar  remains." 

Mr.  Charles  1).  Hurrej-  was  the  directing  force  in 
the  two  closing  meetings.  ''  Men  of  Mettle  "  had  the 
ring  of  the  upward  fight ;  and  the  final  address,  ''The 
Challenge  of  Modern  Religion  to  the  Students  in  All 
Lands,"  was  charged  with  the  struggles  of  college 
men  everywhere  as  they  reached  out  for  a  larger  and 
deeper  life.  The  speaker  brought  to  bear  a  first  hand 
knowledge  of  life  in  Asia,  the  near  East,  and  South 
America.  It  was  a  splendid  address  in  which  was 
caught  the  spirit  of  modern  life  astir  the  world 
around.  His  j^icture  of  Christ,  the  central  figure 
in  it  all,  was  dynamic  with  power. 

What  of  these  meetings  ?  The  student  body  has 
been  touched  more  than  on  the  surface.  The  four 
meetings  averaged  over  five  hundred  men.  Over  two 
hundred  men  followed  Mr.  Hurrey  from  Gerrard 
Hall  to  the  Y.  M.  C.  A.  auditorium  for  an  after  meet- 
ing for  practical  suggestions  on  the  way  to  win  the 
fight  for  character.  One  hundred  and  twenty-seven 
men  signed  cards  that  they  were  taking  advanced 
ground  in  their  moral  and  spiritual  life.  In  the  closing 
meeting  of  the  series  over  four  hundred  men  came  out 
in  the  rain  to  hear  Hurrey.  Practically  the  whole 
crowd  remained  for  another  short  personal  talk  and 
more  than  half  stood  up  expressing  a  decision  for  a 
more  aggressive  .Christian  life.  Ervin  and  Parker

and  a  dozen  other  positive  minded  men  made  short 
talks  expressing  aggressive  decision. 

Mr.  Mercer  had  a  conference  with  Coach  Maelv  and 
thirty  men  in  the  baseball  squad  on  clean  living  and 
its  value  to  the  athlete.  Mr.  Mercer  and  Mr.  Hurrey 
had  a  joint  conference  with  the  fraternitymen,  em- 
phasizing the  big  opportunity  of  fraternitymen  in 
standing  for  character,  scholarship  and  the  good 
things  on  the  campus.  Mr.  Hurrey  had  an  interest- 
ing meeting  with  the  Jewish  Society  of  the  Univer- 
sity. One  of  the  most  significant  utterances  during 
the  meetings  came  from  Sam  Newman.,  a  Russian 
Jew,  who  is  now  a  hard  student  in  the  medical  school. 
Xewman  got  his  ideas  of  Christianty  from  the  cruelty 
and  rottenness  of  the  ecclesiastical  Greek  machine  in 
Russia.  It  has  been  burned  into  his  radical  socialis- 
tic heart  by  Russian  persecution  to  hate  the  tyranny 
of  the  Christian  Church  in  his  native  land.  Newman 
was  drawn,  to  the  big  friendly  heart  of  Charlie  Hur- 
rey and  saw  that  his  Christianity  was  somethiug  dif- 
ferent. He  stood  up  in  the  last  meeting  and  said  as  a 
loyal  Hebrew,  "  ]\Ir.  Mercer  and  ]\Ir.  Hurrey  have 
shown  me  more  clearly  the  ditference  between  church- 
anity  and  Christianity."  Mr.  Hurrey  made  short 
cheering  talks  to  the  Jewish  Society,  the  rural  Sun- 
day school  workers,  to  the  Bible  group  leaders,  and 
to  the  workers  in  the  night  school  for  colored  peo- 
ple. The  greatest  good,  perhaps,  was  accomplished 
by  the  iJersonal  interviews  that  ^Mr.  fiercer  and  [Mr. 
Hurrey  had  with  more  than  two  score  men  troubled 
with  life  problems,  temptations,  and  intellectual 
doubts.  Mr.  Hurrey  in  staying  over  for  the  Satur- 
day night  meeting  had  to  ride  all  the  way  to  Raleigh 
in  a  machine  on  a  rough  night  of  slush  and  rain  to 
catch  a  midnight  train  for  Xew  York  where  he  joined 
John.  R.  Mott  in  conducting  one  of  the  most  remark- 
able campaigns  ever   attempted   anmiLg  college   men 


in  America.     With  him  and  ^ifercer  went  the  warm 
hearts  of  Carolina  men. 

Whatever  else  was  done  or  not  done  by  these  meet- 
ings, certain  pictures  have  come  down  in  more  than 
one  room  in  college. 


PUBLIC   DISCUSSION  AND  DEBATE 

With  the  object  of  stimulating  public  discussion 
and  debate  in  civics  clubs  and  schools  in  North  Caro- 
lina, the  Bureau  of  Extension  has  just  issued  a  sixty- 
page  bulletin  bearing  the  above  title. 

While  the  bulleitin  is  intended  primarily  to  serve 
as  a  handbook  for  use  by  schocfls  in  the  formation  and 
conduct  of  literary  societies,  it  is  also  intended  that 
it  shall  serve  a  similar  purpose  for  rural  communities 
and  villages  which  may  care  to  form  clubs  for  the 
discussion  of  problems  incident  to  their  economic, 
social,  educational,  and  religious  upbuilding.  By 
whomsoever  used,  it  is  intended  'to  be  a  practical,  use- 
ful handbook  provocative  of  intelligent  interest  in  the 
(pitistions  demanding  solution  in  North  Carolina  to- 
day. 

The  bulletin  contains  six  distinct  divisions.  The 
first  discusses  the  importance  of  debate  and  gives  prac- 
tical suggestions  for  the  organization  and  conduct  of 
school  and  community  societies.  The  second  outlines 
the  formal  steps  to  be  taken  in  argumentation  and 
brief  making.  The  third  presents  a  model  brief  and 
complete  references  on  one  query  and  more  or  less 
complete  outlines,  with  extended  references,  to  eleven 
other  subjects.  Among  these  are  taxation,  good  roads, 
compulsory  education,  child  labor,  the  commission 
]dan  of  city  government,  j^rison  reform,  race  segre- 
gation, co-operation  among  farmers,  and  engineering 
assistance  for  counties.     The  initiative  and  referen-

diim,  woman  suffrage,  and  recall  of  judges  are  also 
included  in  this  division. 

The  fourth  division  is  devoted  (to  the  statement  of 
fifty  other  queries,  of  which  thirty  deal  almost  entire- 
ly with  North  Carolina  questions.  For  these  no 
outlines  or  references  are  given,  but  in  the  fifth  di- 
vision an  extended  list  of  other  debate  handbooks  and 
curremt  weekly  and  monthly  newspajDers  and  maga- 
zines is  given,  and  sources  are  indicated,  such  as  the 
University  Library  and  the  North  Carolina  Library 
'Commission,  from  which  material  can  be  borrowed. 

The  sixth  division  gives  a  complete  model  consti- 
tution and  by-laws  for  the  guidance  of  those  who 
wish  to  form  clubs  or  societies.  The  methods  of  pro- 
cedure in  putting  a  society  on  a  working  basis  are 
clearly  pointed  out  and  should  enable  any  school  or 
club  ito  organize  and  begin  work  without  any  diffi- 
culty whatsoever. 

The  bulletin  is  edited  by  Louis  E.  Wilson,  with  the 
assistance  of  Professors  IST.  W.  Walker  and  G.  M. 
McKie,  and  Messrs.  E.  E.  Eankin  and  F.  P.  Graham.

HERE  ARE  THE  FIGURES 

The  following  authorized  statement  of  the  finances 
of  the  Athletic  Association  of  the  University  has  been 
furnished  University  publications  by  Graduate  Man- 
ager Woollen.  It  will  be  noted  that  while  it  appears 
in  a  form  somewhat  different  from  the  estimated 
statement  appearing  in  the  December  issue  of  the 
Eeview,  there  is  but  slight  difference  in  the  two 
totals  indicated — a  difference  of  less  than  $200.  It 
should  be  kept  clearly  in  mind  that  this  statement 
represents  the  financial  condition  of  the  istudent 
Athletic  Association  with  which  the  alumni  are  fa- 
miliar and  is  not  in  any  way  to  be  confused  with  the 
special  alumni  athletic  committee  of  which  George 
Stephens  is  chairman  and  James  A  Gray,  Jr.,  is 
treasurer,  and  \vhich  is  responsible  for  the  alumni 
system  of  coaching  and  the  administration  of  the 
Athletic  Store.  The  statement  shows  an  increased 
indebtedness  of  $1,197.77  at  the  end  of  the  fall  term 
over  that  at  the  beginning.  The  statement  covers 
the  dates  Septemher  1,  1913,  to  January  27,  1914.

A  balance  of  probably  $200  is  still  due  from  the

Thanksgiving  game.  After  the  athletic  fees  of  the 
spring  term  ($1,745.00)  have  been  applied  to  reduce 
the  deficit,  the  Association  faces  the  expenses  of 
basketball,  track,  and  baseball,  $3,632.27  behind.

BASEBALL,  1914 

Baseball  practice  has  gone  into  winter  quarters 
and  a  few  snowball  fights  constitute  most  of  the  prac- 
tice to  date.  Coach  Mack  has  had  his  men  playing 
basketball  to  keep  in  shape  and  Assistant  Coach  Lee 
has  been  training  the  batteries  every  afternoon  in 
the  gym  throughout  the  snow  siege.  Unless  'the  Oak 
Ridge  boys  play  ball  in  the  snow.  Carolina  will  have 
an  equal  chance  with  them  in  the  opening  game  on 
the  thirteenth. 

In  the  lucid  intervals  the  following  candidates  have 
been  on  the  field :  Catchers,  Hart,  Kux)wles,  Burnett, 
C,  Woodall,  Eagles,  and  Woltz;  pitchers,  Aycock, 
Williams,  Foust,  Watkins,  Cagie,  Johnson,  and 
Coleman ;  first  basemen,  Patterson,  Norris,  and  Rob- 
ert Burnett;  second  basemen,  Bailey,  K.  (captain) 
and  Dobbins;  third  basemen.,  Lewis,  Groom,  Jack- 
son, Harper,  Love,  and  Loughran;  shortstop,  Rous- 
seau, Royster,  and  Fuller ;  lef tfielders,  Litchfield  and 
Long;  centrefielders,  Hubert  Bailey  and  Turbyfill ; 
and  rightfielders,  Julius  Johu-^on,  iSTanee,  Alderman, 
and  Williams. 

A  number  of  men  are  ineligible  on  the  various 
grounds  of  professionalism,  residence,  and  scholar- 
ship. In  this  outlaw  league  will  be  found  "  Shag  " 
Thompson,  DeWit  Kluttz,  Raymond  Lee,  Groom, 
Cagle,  Tandy  and  Cowell.  Gooch  and  Edwards 
failed  to  make  the  necessary  eight  hours  and  with- 
drew from  college. 

Coach  Earle  Mack  had  his  squad  of  thirty  men  over 
in  the  T.  M.  C.  A.  for  a  group  interview  with  Mr.  E. 
C.  Mercei",  who  was  in  the  University  making  ad- 
dresses on  the  value  of  clean  living.  Coach  Mack 
is  a  clean  athlete  himself  and  stands  for  the  best  on 
the  athletic  field.  His  baseball  experience  includes 
substitute  work  on  the  Athletics,  a  season  with  Scran- 
ton  in  the  ISTew  York  State  League  and  the  manager- 
ship of  Raleigh.  His  father,  Connie  Mack,  wishes 
his  son  to  stop  baseball  and  study  violin  in  Europe. 
There  were  perhaps  few  more  appreciative  musicians 
in  the  audience  that  heard  Kubelik  than  Carolina's 
baseball  coach. 


TRACK  SCHEDULE 


L'nder  the  direction  of  Coach  Xat.  J.  Cartmell  the 
training  for  the  track  season  has  been  consistently 
nonnal  through  many  weeks.  Joe  Hoffman,  the 
holder  of  the  Southern  record  in  the  440,  is  back  in 
college.  The  candidates  for  places  are:  two  miles, 
('oilier  Cobb,  Jr.,  James  Harrison,  and  M.  E.  Rob- 
inson; one  mile,  R.  C.  Spcnce,  Seymour  Whiting, 
and  L.  H.  Ranson ;  the  half  mile,  L.  H.  Ranson  and 
Seymour  Whiting;  the  440,  Iloffniau,  Patterson  and 


Blalock ;  the  220,  Smith  and  Joe  Hoffman ;  the  100, 
B.  B.  Sears  (captain) ;  hurdles,  Woollcott,  Hoffman, 
Tom  Price,  and  Struthers;  the  high  jump,  Woollcott 
and  Johnson;  broad  jump,  Blalock;  pole  vault, 
Strong  and  Homewood;  shot  put,  Axley;  hammer 
throw,  Parker,  Axley  and  Meyer. 

The  Natmen.  have  won  the  State  championship  for 
several  successive  years  and  have  called  out  the  met- 
tle of  the  contestants  in  the  Southern  meet  at  Balti- 
more. 

Manager  W.  P.  Whitaker  has  given  out  the  fol- 
lowing schedule  of  track  meets : 

March  28 — Class  meet  at  Chapel  Hill. 

April  4 — Wake  Forest  College  at  Chapel  Hill. 

April  II— V.  P.  I.  at  Blacksburg. 

April   i8 — University  of  South  Carolina  at   Columbia. 

April  25 — -(Pending). 

May  2  and  3 — S.  I.  A.  A.  meet  at  Baltimore. 


BASKETBALL 

The  basketball  season  has  run  au  up  and  down 
course.  Tandy  and  Edwards  through  deficiencies 
in  studies  disqualified  themselves  at  a  critical  time 
and  Virginia  turned  the  next  game  into  a  rout.  Vir- 
ginia would  have  won  decisively  anyway.  Carolina 
did  not  have  the  reach  of  the  tall  Virginians  and 
could  only  look  up  as  the  Raleigh  crowd  looked  on. 

With  Johnson  going  fast  at  centre  Carolina  made 
it  two  straights  from  Guilford  by  the  score  of  38  to 
13.  Homewood  was  all  over  the  floor.  Long  and 
Dowd  shot  goals  with  easy  accuracy. 

Wake  Forest  came  back  and  took  the  deciding 
game  in.  a  close  and  exciting  contest.  Chambers  per- 
sistently covered  the  brilliant  Holding.  Dowd  and 
Long  excelled  in  goal  tossing  but  Holding's  passing 
on  fouls  was  a  decisive  feature  of  the  game.  This 
game  put  the  State  Championship  among  the  mooted 
questions.

THE  UNIVERSITY  IN  LETTERS 

European  Dkamatists.     By  Arcliibald  Henderson. 

'Cincinnati:  Stewart  and  Kidd  Company,  1913. 
Pages  395. 

In  all  that  Dr.  Henderson  writes  there  is  the  ring 
of  subtle  thought,  wide  reading,  and  equally  wide 
generalizajtion.  He  pi'efers  and  has  always  preferred 
frontier  themes  and  frontier  (thinkers, — those  that 
challenge  the  critic's  power  to  interpret  and  to  cor- 
relate. As  a  thinker  he  shows  on  every  page  the  ad- 
vantage of  a  rigid  training  in  higher  mathematics, 
and  as  a  writer  he  has  so  focused  his  attention  upon 
the  modern  drama  that  his  reach  and  vogue  are  more 
than  national.  In  spite  of  the  remarkable  achieve- 
ment already  to  his  credit,  my  own,  feeling  about  him 
is  that  something  greater  is  yet  to  come, — a  feeling 
tha4;  I  do  not  have  in  reading  Ches)terton  or  Huneker, 
with  whom  one  instinctively  compares  him. 

The  present  volume  falls  naturally  into  three  parts : 
The  essay  on  Strindberg  is  new;  the  treatment  of 
Ibsen,  Maeterlinck,  Wilde,  and  Shaw  is  essentially 
that  of  Dr.  Henderson's  former  volume.  Interpreters 
of  life,  and  the  Modern  Spirit;  while  the  last  essay, 
that  on  Granville  Barker,  though  it  has  appeared  in 
English  and  French,  differentiates  itself  sharply  in 
style  and  method  from  those  that  precede  it. 

Public   opinion   has   hardly   begun   to   crystallize 


about  Strindberg,  but  the  outlines  of  the  man's  life 
and  character  and  distinctive  achievement  are  here 
firndy  sketched  on  a  broad  canvas.  In  style,  however, 
this  essay  seems  to  me  to  fall  below  the  other  five.  The 
introductory  paragrai>hs  \vill,  we  feai",  bar  many  a 
reader  instead  of  enticing  him.  The  essay  does  not 
leave  the  impression  of  having  been  as  finely  fused  in 
the  author's  mind  as  were  the  other  sketches.  The 
subject,  it  is  true,  was  one  of  rare  difficulty;  but  the 
language,  instead  of  being  marked  by  studied  sim- 
plicity and  economy,  seems  at  times  to  writhe  help- 
lessly about  its  thought.  Instead  of  saying,  as  Dr. 
Henderson  would  say  elsewhere,  that  Strindberg 
now  "  began  to  hate  women,"  he  says  that  he  "  began 
to  be  obsessed  with  the  monomania  of  animadversion, 
against  the  female  sex  "  (p.  26).  And  yet,  but  a  few 
Images  further  on,  one  meets  a  sentence  as  memorable 
in  its  originality  and  simplicity  as  this :  "  Life  with 
him  was  a  form  of  excuse  for  art."  That  sentence, 
elaborated  clearly  and  concretely,  would  make  a  com- 
pelling introduction  or  a  compelling  conclusion  to  the 
entire  essay.  This  short  sentence  means  far  more  to 
me  than  to  know  that  Strindberg  was  "  antipodal  to 
the  reflective  and  anemic  mollycoddle"  (p.  29),  or 
that  his  method  was  the  "  method  of  focal  concentra- 
tion, of  magnification  of  interest  through  inten- 
siveness  of  treatment"  (p.  56),  or  that  his  trilogy 
To  Damascus  blurs  the  vision  "  with  its  kinetoscopic 
heterogeneity  of  spiritual  films  "  (p.  70),  or  that  he 
was  "  obsessed  with  'the  chimera  of  exaggerated  ego- 
ism, the  delusion  of  referential  ideas  "  (p.  71). 

The  essay,  in  other  words,  does  not  seem  to  have 
been  re-read  at  a  sitting.  The  quotation  from  Words- 
worth on  page  5,  like  the  quotation  from  Browning  on 
page  153  and  from  Shakespeare  on  page  155,  is 
strangely  inaccurate,  and  would  hardly  have  escaped 
a  careful  re-reading.  We  are  told  also  on  page  19 
that,  if  Strindberg  became  a  pessimist,  ''  his  was  a 
pessimism  not  of  disillusionment  but  of  contempla- 
tion." The  point  is  an  important  one  if  true,  but  in  at 
least  five  other  passages  Dr.  Henderson  affirms  or  im- 
]dies  directly  the  contrary.  Thus  on  page 29  :  "Here,  as 
elsewhere,  Strindberg  reveals  himself  the  disillusioned 
idealist ;"  and  on  page  33 :  "  It  is  indubitable  that 
Strindberg  finally  reached  the  stage  of  disillusion- 
ment." On  page  35  he  speaks  of  ''  Strindberg's  life 
of  disillusion  "  and  on  page  52  declares :  "  It  was 
the  tragedy  of  Strindberg's  life  never  to  rise  above  the 
sex-disillusionment  which  came  from  early  excess." 

The  four  succeeding  chapters  make  an  interesting 
stitdy  in  the  development  of  Dr.  Henderson's  style. 
I  have  compared  ithem  closely  with  the  corresponding 
chapters  in  his  Interpreters  of  Life,  a  book  which  I 
have  read  many  times  with  increasing  pleasure  and

profit  and  loaned  as  many  times  to  students.     The 
additions  and  omissions  are  comparatively  slight,  the 
chief  dilTerence  being  that  Dr.   Henderson  shows  a 
gi-owing  confidence  in  the  carrying  power  of  English 
when  pitted  against  the  tongues  of  Europe.     Thus

tery,'" "  epater  le  bourgeois"  to  "shock  the  average  in- 
telligence," "  ballons  d'essai  "  to  "  plays  of  fancy." 
This  wholesale  elimination  does  not  mean  that  Dr. 
Henderson  has  decided  to  forego  the  foreign  phrase : 
it  means,  as  I  unders;tand  it,  that  no  foreign  phrase 
need  apply  unless  its  credentials  are  better  than  the 
credentials  of  the  corresponding  English  phrase. 

A  still  further  simplification  is  seen  in  'the  last 
chapter,  that  on  Granville  Barker.  Beaders  of  Dr. 
Henderson's  George  Bernard  Sltaw,  which  appeared 
in  1911,  will  recall  the  handsome  portrait  of  Mr. 
Barker,  facing  page  368,  and  the  footnote  on  the  same 
page  promising  that  "  in  a  subsequent  volume,  deal- 
ing with  Ithe  dramatic  movement  inaugurated  by  ^Ir. 
Shaw,  the  production  of  his  plays  at  the  Court  The- 
atre will  be  fully  discussed."  This  essay  seems  to  be 
a  partial  fulfillment  of  the  footnote.  As  Mr.  Barker 
has    wi'itten    nothing    since    the    appearance    of    The 


Madras  House  in  1910,  a  year  before  Dr.  Henderson 
published  his  gi'eat  work  on  Shaw,  the  space  thait 
would  have  been  given  to  Mr.  Barker's  later  plays  is 
given  to  the  Court  Theatre.  "  The  Stage  Society," 
says  Dr.  Henderson,  "  has  played  in  England,  though 
in  a  somewhat  less  conspicuous  way,  the  role  which 
has  been  played  on  the  continent  by  the  Theatre  Libre, 
L'CEuvre,  and  the  Freie  Biihne.  From  iit  came 
Bernard  Shaw — and  Granville  Barker — soon  to  be 
united  in  an  enterprise  at  the  Court  Theatre  which  is 
without  a  parallel  in  the  history  of  the  English  stage. 
From  that  fecund  school  of  drama  came  also  the  late 
St.  John  Hankin,  a  dramatisit  of  rare  promise,  and 
Mr.  John  Galsworthy,  the  author  of  the  original  and 
powerful  dramas.  Strife  and  Justice." 

In  mastery  of  the  facts,  which  are  known  to  but 
few,  and  in  ease  and  clearness  of  expression,  this 
chapter  leaves  nothing  to  be  desired.  The  book  as  a 
whole  is  a  distinct  addition  to  our  knowledge  of  the 
modern  European  dramatists  and  deserves  a  wide 
reading  not  only  by  students  of  the  drama  but  by  all 
those  who  would  approach  intelligently  the  complex 
problems  of  modern  society. — C.  Alphoxso  Smith.

CHANGES  IN   THE  BASEBALL  SCHEDULE 

The  baseball  schedule  which  includes  twenty-three 
games  has  been  changed  in  several  dates  since  it  was

the  second  game  with  Davidson  at  Fayetteville  have 
been  cancelled  on  account  of  the  time  limit  for  days 
off  the  Hill.  The  Washington  and  Lee  game  was

DR.  KARL  RATHGEN  SHOWS  THE  TRUE  BASIS 
OF  PEACE 

The  University  has  recently  been  honored  by  the 
presence  of  a  distinguished  guest.  Dr.  Karl  Rathgen, 
of  the  Colonial  Institute,  Hamburg,  Germany,  and 
Kaiser  Wilhelm  Exchange  Professor  of  Political  Eco- 
nomy at  Columbia  University.  Dr.  Rathgen  has  re- 
cently given  a  course  of  lectures  at  Columbia  oh  "The 
Economic  Problems  of  Germany;"  and  in  addition  to 
conducting  a  seminar,  he  has  also  delivered  a  course 
of  lectures  in  German  under  the  auspices  of  the  new 
Deutsches  Haus  on  "  The  Origin  and  Aims  of  Ger- 
many's Colonial  Policy."  Dr.  Rathgen  accejated  an 
invitation  to  come  here  and  lecture  before  the  Uni- 
versity, during  his  tour  of  the  South,  which  will  carry 
him  as  far  as  Panama.  His  lecture  here,  which  was 
in  the  highest  degree  interesting  and  instructive,  con- 
cerned itself  with  some  economic  problems  of  the 


Germans  of  today.  With  a  facility  in  using  the 
English  language  which  was  nothing  short  of  re- 
markable, and  a  masterly  command  of  the  most  intri- 
cate array  of  economic  and  industrial  statistics,  the 
lecturer  portrayed  the  mutual  actions  and  interactions 
of  agriculture  and  industry  in  Germany  in  the  past 
few  decades.  Intensive  development  of  Germany's  ag- 
ricultural resources  finally  reaching  its  limit,  there 
necessarily  ensued  a  tremendous  quickening  and  de- 
velopment of  the  manufacturing  industries.  As  a 
result  of  the  competition  of  Germany  with  the  world, 
the  lecturer  showed  how  and  why  Germany  has  won 
and  held  the  position  of  generally  acknowledged  lead- 
ership. Basing  hisiargument  upon  an  impressive  series 
of  incontrovertible  facts,  he  drew  the  inevitable  con- 
clusion that  the  great  manufacturing  countries  are 
mutually  their  own  best  customers.  ''  International 
competition  is  the  life  of  international  trade."  The 
cause  of  one  is  the  cause  of  all.  The  solidarity  and 
mutual  trade  interests  of  individual  nations  are  the 
real  factors  which  conduce  to  the  maintenance  of 
world-peace.

Johns  Hojikins  University,  has  been  a  careful  stu- 
dent and  keen  observer  of  national  life,  and  brought

edly instructive  and  provocative  of  international 
friendshii^.  During  his  stay  at  the  University,  he 
was  accompanied  by  his  secretary,  Mr.  Ileckleman, 
a  missionary  to  Japan  at  home  in  America  on  vaca- 
tion, who  also  spoke  before  the  Y.  M.  C.  A.  and  the 
student  body  on  the  religious  life  of  Japan.

THE  DRAMATIC  CLUB  DELIGHTED  THE  EAST 

The  University  Dramatic  Club  left  for  its  annual 
eastern  tour,  February  17-22,  visiting  Greenville, 
!N"ew  Bern,  Wilmington,  and  Clinton.  Tlie  trip  was 
satisfactory  not  only  from  the  standpoint  of  the  Club 
but  judging  from  the  cordial  reception  given,  it.  it 
was  satisfactory  to  the  cities  visited. 

One  sentence  clipped  from  the  Raleigh  News  and 
Observer  sums  up  pretty  well  what  was  said  about 
the  Club  at  each  point:  "'The  Magistr.ate,'  pre- 
sented by  the  Dramatic  Club  of  the  University  of 
Xorth  Carolina  last  night  in  the  St. -Mary's  audi- 
torium, made  an  unmistakable  hit." 

Coggins,  Weeks,  Kerr,  Hoover,  Blal/)ck,  Potts,  and 
Cox  won  special  mention  and  every^  member  of  the 
cast  played  in  such  a  way  as  to  give  balance  to  tbe 
presentation.  / 

The  management  of  the  Club  is  arranging  a  west- 
ern schedule,  to  include  Salem  College,  Salisbury, 
and  Charlotte,  immediately  after /Easter. — J.  Shep-

CAPT.  L.  L.  ABERNETHY  LEAVES  COLLEGE 

While  ■'  Big  Abby  "  had  talked  of  leaving  college 
before,  it  was  quite  a  sorrow  to  his  friends,  who 
include  the  whole  University,  to  hear  ilonday  that 
he  had  decided  definitely  to  withdraw  from  college  as 
it  will  be  impossible  for  him  to  graduate. 

"  Capt."  left  Tuesday  for  his  home  near  Charlotte. 
The  football  season  and  his  brother's  sickness  and 
death  after  that  took  so  much  of  his  time  that  he  was 
unable  to  keep  up  with  his  work,  which  requires  an 
extra  amount  of  laboratory  work.  He  was  taking 
Electrical  Engineering. — Tar  Heel,  February  19.

JUDGE  WELLS  THOMPSON 

Judge  Wells  Thompson,  '59,  died  at  his  home  in  Bay  City, 
Matagorda  County,  Texas,  during  the  morning  of  Saturday, 
January  17.  igi4,  at  the  age  of  "6  years,  one  month  and 
live  days. 

Judge  Thompson  graduated  from  the  University  of  North 
Carolina  in  the  class  of  1859  and  later  entered  the  Law  School 
of  the  University  of  Georgia  at  Athens,  where  he  was  at  the 
beginning  of  the  War  between  the  States,  and  where  he  en- 
listed for  twelve  months  in  an  artillery  company.  Having 
served  his  term  of  enlistment  he  went  to  Thermopolis,  Ala., 
where  he  was  born  December  12,  1837,  and  joined  in  the  en- 
listment of  Company  I,  36th  .'Kla.  Infantry,  of  which  he  was 
elected  captain,  and  with  which  he  served  in  the  Army  of 
Tennessee,  participating  in  all  its  battles,  until  it  was  sur- 
rendered under  General  Joseph  E.  Johnston,  at  Greensboro, 
N.  C,  April  26,  1865. 

When  a  small  boy.  Judge  Thompson  removed  with  his 
parents  to  Matagorda  County,  Texas,  where  he  grew  to  man- 
hood, and  which  was  his  home  during  his  college  days.  After 
the  surrender  he  returned  to  his  home  at  Columbus,  Texas, 
and  began  life  anew.  Possessed  of  great  power  as  a  forceful 
and  effective  speaker,  he  was  thrown  to  the  front  in  the  terri- 
ble political  conflict  with  the  carpet-bag  government  of  Texas, 
canvassing  the  entire  State,  before  the  days  of  railroads.  In 
1871  he  was  the  candidate  of  his  party  for  Lieutenant  Gov- 
ernor of  Texas,  and  though  elected  was  counted  out,  but 
the  fight  made  by  Judge  Thompson  and  others,  sealed  the 
doom  of  the  party  in  power,  which  two  years  later  received 
its  Waterloo,  from  which  it  has  never  recovered.  At  that 
election  Judge  Thompson  was  again  elected  Lieutenant  Gover- 
nor, serving  as  such  through  the  administration  of  Governor 
().  M.  Roberts.  He  was  elected  State  Senator  in  1876,  and 
President  of  the  Senate,  was  again  elected  Lieutenant  Gover- 
nor in  1878,  was  the  codifier  of  the  Texas  laws  in  189s,  and 
at  the  time  of  his  death,  and  for  several  terms  prior  thereto, 
served  as  Judge  of  the  23rd  Judicial  District  of  Texas. 

Judge  Thompson  was  a  member  of  the  Episcopal  Church. 
He  was  married  late  in  life,  and  his  widow  survives  him,  with 
no  children. 

Judge  Thompson,  accompanied  by  his  devoted  wife,  attended 
the  reunion  of  the  Class  of  '59  at  commencement  in  1908,  and 
is  the  third  of  the  12  who  attended  that  reunion  to  "pass  over 
the  rive'r."

The  athletic  young  man 

doesn't  carry  much  baggage  as  a  general 
thing,  but  you  will  most  always  find  a  pack- 
age of  Fatima  Cigarettes  somewhere  on  him! 
This  is  the  cigarette  that  only  a  few  years  ago 
was  introduced  in  the  college  towns— it  was 
a  try-out  for  pure,  good  tobacco,  and  the 
success  that  happened  you  all  know  about. 

Today  Fatimas  are  the  biggest  selling  ciga- 
rettes in  the  country— a  triumph  never  be- 
fore equalled  in  cigarette  annals— which 
simply  goes  to  show  that  real  quality  is  the 
true  winner. 

In  an  unpretentious  package — quality  the 
best — quantity  generous.
