OPINION AND COMMENT
The 125th I'ommeiR'cmciit e'elebratcd June 1:5-16
was notable in two very ilefinite i)artieuhirs : (1)
Rarely has a baccalaureate address met
A Notable with more instant and unanimous ap-
Event proval than that delivered by Hon. Ro-
land S. Morris, Ambassador to Japan ;
and (2) Never has the University, as represented by
Trustees, alumni, and faculty, been more completely
committed to a program involving immediate expan-
sion on the part of the institution adequate to the
needs of North Carolina. In still another respect it
was also most notable. In graduating the class of
1920 the University sent from the campus into the
activities of the State 156 men and women, and there-
by set for itself a record, both as to numbers and as to
quality of campus citizenship.
nan
Ambassador Morris filled the appointment of Sec-
retary of State Bainbridge Colby, who was detained
in Washington by imperative business.
Roland S. His coming and his whole performance
Morris were of the sort to cheer the hearts of
men. With a background of distin-
guished service for three years in Tokyo, and
with a simple directness which appealed to
everyone, he had the courage to tell the grad-
uating class that even in these days of the profiteer
and "America for Americans," the secret of success-
ful living, for nations as well as individuals, is the
standard contained in the century-old paradox that
the man wIkj would find his life must lose it.
nnn
Alumni Day was notable in that practically every
word spoken at the Alumni business meeting, at the
Alumni Luncheon, and at the meet-
Getting Down ing of the Trustees on the night of
To Brass Tacks Alumni Day, related to the press-
ing needs of the University and the
necessity of combined, unremitting effort to carry out
a program which will enable the University to play
its full part in the rapidly-expanding life of the State.
The accounts of Alumni Day and of the Luncheon
(which appear elsewhere), indicate clearly what
these needs are and what must lie done to meet them
adequately. President Chase sounded the first note
when he declared in his address to the alunuii that the
University had reached, under )iresent conditions,
the absolute and final limit of its resources in every
direction ; that it stood today facing a blank wall
which the implements at its command simpI^' will not
suffice to scale ; that not only the University, but every
college in North Carolina, needed to double its ca-
pacity instantly to meet the full educatioind require-
ments of the State.
nnn
In su]iport of these propositions President Chase
drew upon the record of the j-ear for an array of
facts the seriousness of which cannot
Study These be minimized and which every alum-
Figures nus and citizen of the State must rec-
ognize and act upon if the situation is
to be properly handled.
Seven hundred and ninety-five men roomed in
dormitories last .year which were intended to be occu-
pied by onl.y 469. Crowding in the town was on the
same scale and Swain Hall and the Inn (which it was
hoped would never be called into use again) carried
an over-capacity load of 300.
Last fall a number of classes met under the trees
on the campus. In the laboratories three shifts oc-
cupy the desks daily instead of the one which form-
erly met in the afternoon. Lectures have had to be
crowded into afternoon periods, and class rooms have
had to be used so steadily as to make proper ventila-
tion impossible.
But this is only a part of the story. With 3,000
graduates this May from the State supported public
high schools against 100 in 1908, the number of fresh-
men seeking admittance this fall adds to the impos-
sibility of the situation. Two thousand students are
seeking admi.ssion this September and already every
room on the campus has been filled, while there are
on file for places in the Medical School almost twice
as manj' applications as can be filled.
nnn
Bad as the situation for the regular term is, that
308
THE ALUMNI REVIEW
of the summer session is, if anything', worse. In 1919-
20 seven hundred school houses
Isn't This A in North Carolina were not
Pretty Howdy Do? opened for lack of teachers. Of
the 17,500 white teachers in the
schools, 2,000 were so poorly trained that the State
Department of Education could not give them its
lowest grade certificates. And yet, in the face of this
appalling situation in a State which stands 44th from
the top among its 48 sisters when ranked in the terms
of educational eiSeiency, the Director of the Summer
School has had to turn away 500 teachers. Here, cei--
tainly, is "a pretty howdy do."
nnn
The Harvard Alunuii Bulletin for June 10 contains
a statistical table and an editorial which present Car-
olina 's plight in another light.
Harvard Has According to this table Harvard
An Easy Job has 10.6 per cent fewer freshmen in
1919-20 than she had in 1913-14 and
19 per cent fewer than in 1915-16. Yale, for the same
dates, suffered a loss of 4.3 and 11.9 per cent, respec-
tively, while Princeton had two freshmen less in
1919-20 then she had in 1913-14 and thirty-three more
than in 1915-16.
In other words, Harvard and Yale, from which we
hitherto have drafted our instructors and with whom
on account of the exceeding scarcity of new teaching
material, we are in competition, have only one finan-
cial problem — that of securing funds to raise salaries.
Harvard is just completing a $15,000,000 drive and
has raised her salary scale to $6,000 to $8,000 for full
professors with all other ranks in proportion. Pui'-
thermore, she has no extensive building program to
take care of because she already has ample buildings
and Massachusetts high schools are not just beginning
to function as are ours. She is not forced to catch
up witli a belated building program, but Carolina is.
And there is the rub, or, rather, the blister imder
the rub.
nnn
No comfort is to be had from a comparison with
the Middle Western State Universities. IMichigan, for
example, has its buildings, and
A Brick and owing to the fact that it has a
Mortar President mill-tax scheme, and values have
recently increased, its mainten-
ance fund is amply taken care of. Minnesota is not
so fortunate in its building program. Like us, it is
sorely pressed for buildings, but imlike us it already
has had appropriated some $6,000,000 to provide the
buildings with. So mucii building is in pros])('ct that
President Burton, who recently resigned to become
President of the University of Michigan, gave as one
of the reasons for leaving Minnesota, the fact that he
"didn't want to be a brick and mortar President"!
The president of Carolina must of necessity be this
and a money raiser as well.
nnn
One significant statement made by President Chase
in his address to the alumni was that in spite of the
competition between institutions
The Lure of for teachers, and in spite of the
"Larger Fields" fact that salary scales elsewhere
in institutions of our class ranged
from $500 to $1,000 on an average above those paid
here, the faculty had remained practically intact.
This, to be sure, is fine and many of the members of
the facult.y may be counted on to continue their serv-
ice to the University regardless of offers elsewhere.
But there is another side to this picture. Diiring
the pi'esent year we drew one instructor from an
institution which since hfs coming to us, has increased
salaries 50 per cent. Last fall still another member
of the faculty refused an offer involving a 20 per
cent raise above what he was receiving here. In
xipril, the president of that institution announced an
average raise for 1920-21 of 29 per cent over 1919-20
salaries. And only recently a professor receiving the
minimum full professorship salary here of $3,000
turned down an offer of a professorship at $3,600,
which, for 1920, as a resi;lt of an endowment drive
and a gift of $400,000 from the General Education
Board for salaries, has been increased to $5,000!
Guessed wrong, maj'be, but now that salary scales
elsewhere are being announced and the differences
between the salaries here and elsewhere are more
marked, we may expect more men to do as Smith and
Mims and Herty and Ro.yster before them did — go to
"larger fields" or "fields in which the grass grew
longer."
nnn
To substantiate what has just been said, attention
is directed to the salary scales of two institutions
which are not so far away as not to
Hard Facts know about Carolina's work — and to
want some of its workers. On April
7, President Thompson, of Ohio State University, an-
nounced the following scale : Professors, $4,000 to
$(),000; assistant professors, $1,800 to $3,300; instruc-
tors, $900 to $2,700. His announcement also carried
the information that 127 professors receive an average
salary of $4,139; that 81 assistant professors (the
THE ALUMNI REVIEW
30!)
rank of associate professor has been abandoned by the
institution) receive an average of $2,601; and 110 in-
structors an average of $1,788. The statement also
frankly recognizes the fact that the average salary for
])rofessors is not as high as that of Michigan and Chi-
cago and concludes with this sentence: "The budget
has been adopted early in order that new instruction
as provided maj' be secured at an earl\- date and those
who are iinwilling to accept the appointments as pro-
vided may have as much time as possible for negotia-
tion elsewhere."
The other scale is that of the Universit.y of Texas,
which runs as follows: Professors, $4,250 to $5,000;
associate professors, $3,250 to $3,750 ; adjunct pro-
fessors, $2,400 to $3,000 ; instructors, $1,800 to $2,200.
nan
What, then, is the answer to this situation ? Presi-
dent Chase suggested the doubling immediately of
the University plant. Another speaker
What Is urged the welding together of the alum-
the Answer ni into an organization that would
bring all of its combined influence to
bear upon the State to meet the situation. Another
proclaimed the doctrine that the State was rich and
that the young men should be called on to work out
its destiny.
From these and many other suggestions one big
fact emerges. Unless every one interested in the Uni-
versity lines up squarely behind a big-scale program
and works unfalteringly to put it across — trustees,
administration, faculty, student body, alumni — Caro-
lina will inevitably fall behind her sister imiversities,
and to stand still today, is, more than it has ever been
before, to recede. And that, for Carolina, is unthink-
able.
DDD
Organization and work are absolutely essential to
this program. They need, however, to be supple-
mented in one other particular — giving.
One Other We do not hesitate to say that an
Essential alumnus of a State-supported university
should contribute of his means to its
welfare. We do say it and are prepared to maintain
the ])ro|K)sition through thick and thin. We grant,
of course, that the burden of support is upon the
State. But that does not relieve the alumnus from
co-operation.
There are a number of ways in which alumni can
rightfully contribute to their alma mater. It is al-
ways in order to give to distinctively alumni projects
such as the Alumni Loyalty Fund and the Graham
Memorial Fund. Similarly, the opportunity is con-
stantly offered for underwriting the expense of special
investigations or research which the University could
not otherwise undertake, but which, if successfully
carried out, would add greatly to its scientific or
scholarly standing. And there is always the privilege
of establishing scholarships, fellowships, lectureships,
etc., from which individuals or the whole student bodj-
may profit, but which the State cannot supply.
Another fact which should not be lost sight of, too,
is that an hour can come in the life of an institution,
just as in that of a business concern, when the lack of
ready cash spells disaster. When such an hour ar-
rives — sometimes midwaj- between legislative sessions
— a gift for some specific purpose (such as that of the
Kenan professorships, for example) may mean the sal-
vation of the institution.
nnn
Recently it was our privilege to attend a meeting of
the Association of Alunuii Secretaries held in the Stu-
dents' Union Building of the Univer-
Michigan As sity of Michigan, a building costing
An Example $1,200,000 erected by 17,000 of the
43,000 alumni of the Univer.sity of
Michigan through contributions ranging from 50
cents to $10,000. During the discussion centering on
the topic of alumni giving, the following summary
of large alumni gifts to the University of Michigan
was made by the secretarA- of that institution :
Alunmi Memorial Hall $150,000.00
Hill Aurlitorium 2fli\00(,'.00
Martha Cook Dormitory for Women ."jOO. 000.00
Betsy Barbour Dormitory 200,000.00
Barbour Fellowship for Oriental Women .... 100,000.00
Barbour Property in Detroit for Oriental
Women .300,000.00
Clements Library of Americana and Build-
ing to be Built 600,000.00
Michigan Union 1,200,000.00
Alumnae House 18,000.00
Hudson Professorship 100,000.00
La Monte (telescopes) 50,000.00
$3,418,000.00
nnn
What the alumni of any State University do by
way of example is always stimulating. Certainly
this record of Michigan is of the
Virginia Starts pe])])ei-y sort. It is the story of
Something something big already achieved.
A recent ainioimcement made by
the University of Virginia is to the effect that the
alumni of that institution will present their Alma
Mater with a birthday gift of $3,000,000 in 1921
when she celebrates her centennial anniversarv.

THE ALUMNI REVIEW
Oiu'-third of the amount will g'o to provide increased
salaries, oue-thii'd to provide buildings, and one-
third to the improvement of the entire present plant.
The alumni offiee, which through its splendid or-
ganization made a great reputation for itself among
American universities through its activities connected
with the American Universit.y Union in Paris, is
thoroughly organized to push the matter to comple-
tion.
nnn
In so far as words can express the feeling of the
University over the retirement of Professor William
Cain from the headship of the De-
Professor Wil- partment of Mathematics and his
liam Cain acceptance of a retiring beiietit from
tlie Carnegie Foundation in order
that he may prosecute special investigations in his
tield of study, that service was beautifully performed
by President Chase on Commencement Day.
In making the official announcement, and in con-
veying to Professor Cain the appreciation of the
Trustees for his long distinguished service to the
University, he expressed his feeling as one of sorrow
mingled with joy : of sorrow, because Professor Cain
was terminating a notable service in the classroom ;
of joy beeaiLse his retirement from the classroom made
possible increased devotion to scientific investigation
in which Professor Cain had achieved high distinction.
The Review does not attempt to add to President
Cliase's statement. But it does take this opportunity,
as the representative of the alumni who for the past
thirty-one years have known Professor Cain as teach-
er, scholar, gentleman, to voice the high esteem in
which he is held bj' them today, and to assure him of
their affectionate regard in the days to come. Through
sound teaching, scholarly investigation, and rich per-
sonalit.y his contribution to the University and to the
advancement of mathematical science, particularly in
the field of engineering, has been at once extensive
and signal.
nnn
The Review undertakes no summary of the year
so far as the activities of the alunnii are concerned.
However, it does point with consider-
"We Point able pride to several incidents grow-
With Pride" ing out of alumni activity which fea-
tured the commencement occasion.
The first is the record of the infant alumni group,
1920. This cla.ss since December, 1918, has served the
University as few classes have been privileged to
serve their Alma Mater. It was its opportunity to
maintain Carolina traditions during a period of dis-
organization and shock and to lift to a higlu>r level the
ideals of the campus. Furthermore, it has perfected
a permanent organization from which alunuii per-
formance of high order may be exiiected, the first
objective of which is the provision of a s]ilendid por-
trait of the late President Graham for the Graham
Memorial building.
The classes of 1910 and 1860 are to be commended
for quite a different matter. Through the activity of
Maj. W. A. Grahm, '60, the record of that class has
been brought up to date and j)ut into print, a task
that has required long, painstaking effort, the com-
pletion of which adds to the total completeness of the
records of her sons which the University is attempting
to compile. Similarly the class of 1910, through a
committee consisting of Joe R. Nixon, J. H. Boushall,
and L. N. Taylor, has issued a most distinctive rec-
ord of its 192 members since commencement ten
years ago.
Two of the classes holding reunions came bearing
gifts to the Alumni Loyalty Finid. Nineteen fifteen
returned with .$650 and 1895, at its 25th anniversary,
pledged $2,500, thereby setting a precedent for
quarter-century classes.
nnn
The Review wishes to lay special emphasis upon
the following matters of interest to the alumni which
should receive attention during the sum-
Announce- mer.
ments 1. Messrs. E. R. Rankin and Beemer
Harrell will represent the University in
the interest of new students ; of increased support for
The Review ; and of information concerning alumni
for use in the compilation of almuui records.
2. Mr. A. M. Coates is assisting the alumni office
in securing information concerning the war service
records of University men.
3. Subscriptions due either to the Graham Memo-
rial Fund or Alumni Loyalty Fund should be sent
to the treasurer of the University.

baccalaureate sermon by chancellor
Mccormick
The opening day of the 125th commencement, Smi-
day, Jnne 13, was mai'ked by two sermons, the bac-
calaureate by Dr. Samuel Black McCormick, Chan-
cellor of the University of Pittsburgh, and the Y. M.
C. A. vesper sermon by Dr. W. D. Moss, of the Chapel
Hill Presbyterian Church. The seniors in cap and
gown attended both of these in a bodj-, the first in
Gerrard Hall, the second on the campus under the
Davie Poplar at twilight.
Chapel Hill has rarely known a more beautiful day.
The first warm rush of summer, tempered and soft-
ened by breezes which rustled through the high tree
tops of the giants of the campus, brought out a
crowd which filled the chapel to the doors in the
morning and which spread itself in a huge circle,
row on row around Parson Moss in the afternoon.
Dr. McCormick 's sermon was a powerful and
searching appeal to the men and women of Carolina
to resist to the utmost the present-day attack on all
established institutions and to carry forward to ful-
fillment the dream-s of their fathers for religion, for
freedom, and for the future of America.
"As that man is greatest who becomes the servant
of all, so only can America achieve greatness by be-
coming the servant of all the nations," said Dr. Mc-
Cormick. "America must be content to develop itself
as a comitry within the boundaries set for America,
but as a people and as a nation America will attain
to its God-intended destinj^ only as the arms of the
people are extended wide and the hands of the people
are full of blessing, abundantly and generously ex-
pended upon all people who need sympathy and kind-
ness and help."
Vesper Services Held
The last rays of the sun were shining through the
trees on the campus as the seniors, their families, rela-
tives, and friends gathered to hear the vesper sei-mon
of Dr. Moss. Taking his text from the familiar verse,
"I will lift up mine eyes to the hills from whence
cometh my help," Dr. Moss told the seniors that
their Jives would be made up of living in the valley
and on the hill tops, in the valley witli the dead
level of experience, with its limitation and change
and desire, and on the hills with their wholesomeness,
their universal sweep, their calmness, strength, and
vision.
"You will have to live in the valleys, for that is
existence," said the "Par.son." "But don't fail to
turn to the hills for their breadth of vision and in-
spiration. ' '
CLASS DAY EXERCISES
Dominating the campus for the last time the Class
of 1920 finished on Monday evening vmder the Davie
poplar their class historj-, reviewed their career, made
their last will and testament, and turned over the
campus to the rising seniors.
The final day of leadership on the campus began
at 9 :30 with a farewell chapel service in Gerrard Hall
conducted by Professor H. H. Williams and Rev. W.
D. Moss. This service over, the class later returned to
the chapel to present the class gift, which is to be
an oil portrait of the late President Graham, and to
hear the contests for the Mangum Medal. Thomas C.
Wolfe presented the gift and Messrs. J. P. Wash-
burn, Thomas J. Brawlej', Columbus A. Hoyle, and
F. L. Townsend contested for the oratorical distinc-
tion.
At 5 :30, under the Davie poplar, with hundreds of
friends and alumni present to witness the last scene,
E. E. White read the class history, R. B. Gwynn an-
alyzed and interpreted the class statistics, Thomas
C. Wolfe read the class poem, Thomas S. Kittrell
presented the last will and testament, and F. J. Liip-
fert looked beyond the present in the role of class
prophet. J. P. Washburn, president of the class, lit
the pipe of peace, spoke the last word of coiuisel to
his classmates, and turned the guardianship of the
campas over to W. R. Berryhill, president of the
senior class-to-be.
FIRE DESTROYS BUSINESS HOUSES ON
FRANKLIN STREET
The business section of Chapel Hill suffered from a
disastrous fire on the early morning of June 22 which
completely destroyed a row of frame stores on Frank-
lin street between the Kluttz store and Tankersley res-
idence. The stores were occupied by Foister's book
and art shop. Peace's barber shop, Gooch's cafe,
Pendergraft's grocery store, and a store room used
by the Kluttz Company. In addition, space on the
second story and in the rear of several of these stores
was being used to store furniture belonging to stu-
dents, professors, and citizens of Chapel Hill. The
stock of Foister's store was saved, but all other stock
and all the buildings were leveled to the groimd. The
total damage was estimated at $35,000, about half of
it covered bj' insurance.
All the buildings were old landmarks m Chapel
Hill, the Macaulay building (used by Pendergraft)
being a familiar sight to manj' generations of Carolina
men. Gooch's cafe, scene of many a midnight ham-
and-egg, was another familiar haunt.

ALUMNI DAY
Reunions of Classes Ranging From 1860 to 1919 Feature the
Celebration of Alumni Day
Featured by the class reuiiiwis of ten of Alma
Mater's most loyal classes, ranging from 1860 to
1919, by President Chase's clear presentation of the
vital, pressing needs of the University to the General
Alumni Association, by the response made by the
alumni in taking steps for a reorganization of their
Association on a business-like basis, by the Alumni
Luncheon, by the splendid performance of the Caro-
lina Playmakei's, and by the faculty reception, the
celebration of Alumni Day on Tuesday, Jime 15th,
proved a most happy and profitable commencement
occasion.
Business Meeting of Alumni Association
The General Alumni Association held its annual
meeting in Gerrard Hall on the morning of Alumni
Day, with R. D. W. Connor, president of the asso-
ciation, presiding. President Chase spoke on the
needs of the University. The University must imme-
diately, he said, double her present plant, if the de-
mands which the State is making on her now are to
be met.
E. R. Rankin, secretary of the Association, made a
report on the work which has been done during the
past year in the keeping of records of the alumni.
The new features consist of card-index systems for
all the living alumni of the University. These
card-index .systems for keeping records of the alumni
are ari-auged alphabetically, geographically, and ac-
cording to classes.
Dr. L. R. Wilson pointed out the great needs which
the University faces now, first, in lack of buildings
and equipment, and, second, in lack of money with
which to pay adequate salaries to the members of
the faculty. He showed especially how a working
organization of alumni could be of vast help to Alma
Mater. He called on the members of the General
Alumni Association to make of their Association an
effective, business-like organization dedicated to aiding
Alma Mater in the solvuig of her pressing problems.
President Connor made a report on behalf of the
committee which has been at work for some time on
plans for a reorganization of the General Alumni
Association. The plan proposed involves the securing
of a full-time, reasonably well-paid Alumni Secretary

THE ALUMNI REVIEW
COMMENCEMENT DAY
Ambassador Morris Delivers Baccalaureate Address —
165 Degrees Are Conferred
Substituting' in splendid fashion for Secretary
Bainbridge Colb.y, who was detained in Washington
at the last minute by important business, Roland
Morris, American Ambassador to Japan, just arrived
in Amei-ica on a vacation, told a crowd that overflowed
Memorial Hall at the 125th commencement exercises
that the principle of luiselfish service applied to
America's international relations was the chief hope
for the establishment of the friendliest relations be-
tween America and Japan.
"If we are to realize our best national develop-
ment, ' ' Ambassador Morris said, ' ' we must apply the
same rules as in the development of the individual.
Unselfish service is the only principle for the develop-
ment of the best in an individual and in a nation, and
the international relations of the country in the fu-
ture should be based on that principle. ' '
It was a typical Carolina commencement, with the
Sim shining full blast on the huge crowd that surged
across the campus. Orange County turned out her
usual quota of coimtry folk, and hitching posts and
parking space for Fords were at a premium for many
hundreds who were out for a picnic day of fun. The
alumni were back in large numbers from Ma,ior
Graham and 80-year-old boys of 1860 down to the
youngsters of '19, back for their first re-union and
almighty • proud of their standing too. Mothers,
fathers, brothers, sisters, cousins, aunts, and best girls
of the graduates helped swell the crowd, and every-
body asked everybody else "Isn't it hot?" and passed
on without stopping for an answer.
Secretary Colby's failure to come did not upset a
single plan. As a matter of fact no one at Chapel Hill
knew of the change in speakers until Secretary Dan-
iels, down to see his son, Worth Bagley Daniels, grad-
iiate, rode up to Alumni Building thirty minutes be-
fore the procession was to start and introduced Am-
bassador Morris to. President Chase. The speech was
well delivered and well received, the Ambassador mak-
ing the personal hit of the day with his pleasant man-
ner, his clear address, his sturdy exposition of fun-
damental principles of conduct, for the individual and
for the nation ; and President Chase uiidoiibtedly ex-
pressed a imiversal sentiment when he said that Mr.
Morris' kindness in substituting at the last moment
was one of the most splendid gifts ever made to the
Universit.y.
The exercises were preceded with the usual acade-
mic parade, the seniors in front, then the trustees and
alumni, followed bj' the faculty, with President Chase,
Secretary Daniels, Mr. Morris, and Governor Biekett
at the rear. At Memorial Hall the procession tele-
scoped on itself and the platform group marched in
first between opened ranks of graduates.
The Rev. B. L. Baskin, of the local Baptist Church,
opened with the invocation, and President Chase in-
troduced Secretary Daniels, who in turn introduced
Mr. Morris as fully qualified to appear before a North
Carolina audience because an alumnus of the Univer-
sity, William A. Graham, Secretary of the Navy, had
sent Commodore Perry to open the doors of Japan to
western influences, and because Mr. Morris had come
to Asheville, N. C, for his wife.
Professor Cain Retires From Service
Following the address. President Chase made the
announcements about changes in the faculty. Of es-
pecial interest was the news of the retirement from
active teaching of Professor William Cain, since 1889
Professor of Mathematics, and the election of Pro-
fessor Archibald Henderson as his successor. Pro-
fessor Cain has been offered and has accepted a pen-
sion from the Carnegie Foundation and stops teaching
after 31 years at the University and many more at
other institutions.
New Kenan Professors Announced
Announcement of the election of three new Kenan
professors was also made bj- President Chase, who said
that the policy formally adopted by the Trustees
■'provides that Kenan Professorships shall be awarded
on the basis of distinctive and outstanding work in
productive scholarship, in teaching, in organization
and administration, and in service to the University
and the State."
The three new Kenan Professors are William C.
Coker "for productive scholarship . . . natural-
ist of merit ; author of many admirable papers in
his field"; Henry Horace Williams, "for outstand-
ing merit as a teacher; for thirty years a vital influ-
ence in the lives of students who have come under his
teaching and in the life of the University ' ' ; Louis
Round Wilson, "for distinguished service to the Uni-
versity and the State ; translator of the extension
idea into practice; creator of an extension service
without parallel in the South."

MUSIC DEPARTMENT CONCLUDES SPLENDID
YEAR WITH PRESENTATION OF
"THE MIKADO"
The climax of the first year of organized music in
Die University was reached May 21 witli the produc-
tion of Gilbert and Sullivan's opera, "The Mikado,"
under the direction of Paul J. Weaver, Professor
of Music.
Memorial Hall, which has seen many sights in its
day, had one of the largest crowds of the year that
night, on hand to see the first musical comedy, chorus
and all, on which the memorial tablets have ever
looked down. A cast of nine principals, a male chorus
of twenty, a female chorus of twenty, and an orchestra
of eleven pieces combined to make the largest musical
undertaking the University has known, and the suc-
cess of the production, it is hoped, will lead to others
of a similar nature.
Professor Weaver, in charge of the production, paid
especial attention to the music, and Mrs. Weaver to
the dramatic work. The principals were : Mrs. G. A.
Harrer, Misses Alma Stone, Lou Shine, and Aline
Hughes, and Messrs.^ James Howell, I. B. Newman,
LeGrand Everett, Charles Nichols, and George Hunt.
The costumes were unusually effective and the entire
production went across with a sure and increasing
success.
Professor Weaver has had charge of the Glee Club
and Orchestra this year and both of them, under his
direction, have been lifted to a high level of achieve-
ment. The Orchestra particularly has come to occupy
a definite position on the campus, where it has co-
operated time and time again this year with other
University productions and events. Two trips, of a
week each, have been taken hy the Glee Club, one in
THE ALUMNI REVIEW
321
the western and the other in the eastern part of the
State, and in addition Professor Weaver has made a
number of extension lectures on community music
and has conducted several community sings, notably
in Raleigh and in Rocky Moiuit.
Four courses in music were offered during the year,
in appreciation of music, in the history of music, in
sight singing and ear training, and in harmony. At
the Summer School further progress will be made in
music through the work of Mr. William Breach,
formerly of Rochester, N. Y., now director of public
school and community singing in Winston-Salem, who
is giving courses in voice and piano, and in puMic
school music. Professor Weaver has added courses in
community music and in sight singing, and will di-
rect a production of "Hiawatha's Wedding Feast"
at the Summer School.
Plans are being made now toward the obtaining of
teachers of voice and instrumental nnisic for the
University in the near future.
STATE UNIVERSITY FINANCES
The Review reprints below two studies recently
appearing in the University News Letter dealing with
the amoimts invested by the various States in their
State Universities and with the funds with which
they maintain them annually. The studies cover the
college year 1918-19 and are based on the reports of
the State universities to the Federal Bureau of Edu-
cation and on answers to inquiries sent out by the
Department of Rural Economies and Sociology of this
University. Massachusetts, Maryland, and New
Hampshire maintain no State imiversity or college
of liberal arts at State expense in whole or in part.
No reports have been secured so far from Mississippi,
Missouri, and Vermont. These studies so vitally
concern the University that The Review reprints
them in full in the hope that each alumnus and
Trustee will give them most careful consideration. —

STATE UNIVERSITY PLANTS
Carolina is the oldest State university in America.
On paper it is as old as the Declaration of Independence,
having been provided for in the Halifax Constitution of 1776.
As old as the Federal Constitution, having been charterea
by the State Legislature in 1789.
The cornerstone of the first building was laid in 1793, and
two years later the doors of Carolina swung open to students.
In very fact Carolina is the oldest State university in the
Union.
The oldest but not the richest in campus properties — in land-
values, buildings, apparatus, and equipments. Among the
forty-one States reporting in 1918-19, she stood twenty-fourth
from the top of the column.
The latest authoritative summary makes North Carolina by
long odds the richest State in the South in per capita wealth.
Nevertheless six Southern States outrank us in the value of
university plants, as follows:
1. Texas $2,941,535
2. Virginia ^2,432,560
3. Georgia 2,000,000
4. Tennessee 1,662,889
5. Oklahoma 1,.'358,365
6. Alabama 1,480,000
7. North Carolina 1,355,000
It is reasonable for Texas and Virginia to stand ahead of
us in university properties. Texas is five times the size of
North Carolina, and her people are nearly twice as many,
while the civilization of Virginia is around a half century
older than ours.
Outstripping Carolina
But we had a running start of Georgia by eighty years or
so. Nevertheless, her university plant overtops ours by more
than six hundred thousand dollars in value!
And a running start of Alabama by forty years or so, but
her university plant at Tuscaloosa already outvalues Carolina's
plant at Chapel HUI, and the Alabama legislature has recently
authorized a million-dollar fund for campus buildings, equip-
ments, and extension. Even Mississippi has just appropriated
$700,000 for university buildings and equipments and .t300,00C
for annual maintenance!
As for Tennessee, Carolina's fair daughter, she outstrips
the mother State by $300,000 in university properties.
And Oklahoma in less than twenty years has created a univer-
sity plant worth $200,000 more than ours, wliile her annual ap-
propriation for maintenance is nearly $150,000 a year greater.
Gasoline and Culture
At present North Carolina has 54 cents per inhabitant in-
vested in university properties — and 50 dollars per inhabitant
invested in automobiles !
In 125 years we have built up a university plant worth one
and a third million dollars. In ten years we have bought up
a hundred million dollars worth of motor cars!
We are buying motor cars faster than any other State in
tlie Union, says the National Automobile Chamber of Com-
merce — fifty milUon dollars worth a year! A hundred and
forty thousand dollars worth a day, including Sunday.
We are skyrocketing toward the top of the automobile col-
umn; but in common school and university investments we
soar aloft like Icarus of old, like ' ' Darius Green and his
riyiug Machine ' ' !
But in the end the lift and level of Carolina's civilization
will be measured by the brain power of her people and not
by the gas engine power of her motor cars.
The classroom, dormitory, and mess hall space of the Uni-
versity need to be doubled.
Her 1500 students in the regular college and summer
school terms already demand almost exactly twice the space
available today — to say nothing of the future.
Nothing but buildings and eiiuipment and working income
limit the ability of the University to serve the State. The
322
THE ALUMNI REVIEW
University is a tried and at last a proven agency of developing
democracy and nothing limits its power to serve the State but
the will of her people to equip it for service.
We could just as easily have 5,000 as 1,500 students here,
if only the State would provide the facilities.
Rip van Winkle
We are not abaslied by the way tlie Middle Western and
Pacific coast States have outstripped us in university invest-
ments and supporting funds — by Michigan 's eight-million-dollar
plant, or Wisconsin 's nine-million-dollar plant, or Minnesota 's
elevon-million-dollar plant, or California 's si.xteen-million-
dollar plant.
But when six Southern States move on ahead of us in uni-
versity properties, and foiu' in university maintenance funds —
little Arizona among tlie number — we begin to wonder whether
or not Carolina with all her wealth will be content to idle
along the way in the march of Southern commonwealths.
And the Federal Education Bureau reports eight Southern
States ahead of us in university properties or State mainten-
ance funds — in one or the other or both particulars: they
are Arizona, Oklahoma, Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, Ken-
tucky, Virginia, and Texas.
North Carolina has been lovingly called tlie Kip van Wiidde
of the States.
What wa.s once said in love Ijy one of her own sons, may
soon be said in derision by aliens and strangers.
UNIVERSITY SUPPORT
In State appropriation for maintenance in 1918-19 North
Carolina ranked twenty-third among the forty-four States
that maintain State universities or colleges of liberal arts.
Which is to say, twenty-two States support their State uni-
versities more liberally. Four of these are Southern States as
follows :
North Carolina $194,106
Arizona 2:!9,747
Kentucky 299,096
Oklahoma ;i6.i,4.55
Texas 8:i9,.'i65
Our State appropriation for tlie calendar year 1918 was
$165,000; for the calendar year 1919 it was $215,000. The
college year running from July to .July was thus supported
by two legislative appropriations, one smaller and the other
larger than $194,166.
But bulk totals are never a fair liasis on wliich to compare
States. Reducing these State ajipropria.tions to per capita
amounts per year, whites alone considered, the table stands as
follows ;
North Carolina 11 cents
Oklahoma \',',
Kentucky 14
Texas 22 ,
Nebraska 5'A
Arizona 80
Eleven cents a year is what on an average the University
of North Carolina costs a white inhabitant — less than that if
he has less than $400 worth of property on the tax books.
Less than three cents if he has less than $100 on the tax
list! And only fifteen cents if he has $500 on the tax list!
Eleven cents is less than a movie show ticket nowadays.
A single pound of middling cotton pays a man's University
tax in tliis State for iicnrly four years; a single ]iound of
average tobacco, for nearly six years ; and a single bushel of
corn for nearly twenty years!
Great University Areas
Thirteen States of the Union give more than a half-million
dollars each to their universities. Seven of these, more than
a million, and one of these, Illinois, more than two million
a year!
Except New York, all these States are in the Middle West
and the Rocky Mountain regions. They believe in university
culture and technical training, in high schools, elementary
schools, in schools of every grade and sort. They show their
faith by their works, and a pocket-book faith is the real article.
But when it comes to total working incomes, which include
fees, gifts, endowment proceeds and the like, the figures are
amazing. They run beyond two million dollars for seven of
these State universities ; over three millions for five of them ;
and over four millions for the University of California.
We've a long way yet to go in North Carolina in common
school, high school, technical school, and University support.

PROFESSOR CAIN RETIRES
After thirty-one years as Professor of Mathematics
at the University and many more years as a teacher
at other institutions and as a practicing engineer
Professor William Cain has retired on an allowance
from the Carnegie Foundation. The announcement,
made by President Chase, at commencement, aroused
wide interest, not only from the long roll of students
who have worked with Professor Cain, but from nu-
merous others who have known of his signal achieve-
ments in the field of mathematics and engineering.
"It is with sorrow and joy that I make this an-
nouncement," said President Chase, "so.rrow because
the University is losing the services of a great teacher
who has labored long in her behalf ; and joy because
he is now able to devote all his time and energy to
the things in which he is most interested. The Uni-
versity is not officially associated with the Carnegie
Foundation, and the fact that Professor Cain is one
of the small group picked for this honor is pleasant
proof to all of us of the high esteem and respect with
which the educational and scientific world regards
Professor Cain. On behalf of the Trustees I am in-
structed to express to Professor Cain the gratitude
which this University has, and always will have, for
him, and the deep appreciation of his splendid serv-
ices."
Professor Cain will be i>iicceeded as head of the
Department of Mathematics by Professor Archibald
Henderson.
Professor Cain, or Major Cain, as he has been
known in Chapel Hill, came to the University in 1889,
and has been head of the Department of Mathematics
from the day he arrived, thirty-one years ago, imtil
the present. Into the daily task of instruction he has
poured the vigor and enthusiasm of a great teacher
and the ripened scholarship of a student who has
kept in close touch with his profession all over the
world and has dug out for himself much that he
could not get in any other way. "During all his
years of service he has consistently .stood for high pro-
fessional ideals and standards." said President Chase.
As a mathematician and as an engineer Professor
Cain has won for himself a reputation that is rec-
ognized by research workers and technical engineers
as authoritative in his field, and his advice has been
sought frequentl}' by engineers, not only from the
United States, but from many European countries
and from Aastralia. He has been called the greatest
master of the science of engineering ever produced
in the South, and he is a recognized authority every-
where on such subjects as bridges, arches, dams, bins,
reenforced conci-ete, retaining walls, and earth pres-
sure.
Among Professor Cain's books, many of them pub-
lished in Van Nostrand's Science Series, are: A
Practical Theory of Voussoir Arches; Maximum
Stresses in Framed Bridges; Voussoir Arches Ap-
plied to Stone Bridges, TuiuielSy Domes, and Groined
PROFESSOR WILLIAM CAIN
Arches; Theory of Solid and Braced Elastic Arches;
Symbolic Algebra and Notes on Geometry; Steel-Con-
crete Arches and Vaulted Sfrurtiires; Earth Pressure,
Retaining Walls, and Bins, and others. In addition,
Professor Cain has contributed jiapers, reports, and
bulletins on these and allied subjects to many scien-
tific meetings and periodicals.
Professor Cain's theories have been put into prac-
tice in the construction of the water-works system of
New York City, in many operations by the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad, and in the computations of the engi-
neers for the arches of the Brooklyn Bridge and many
other bridges.

THE UNIVERSITY IN PRINT
In the "Roads aucl Streets" issue (June, 1920)
of Engineering and Co.'tracting appeal's an impor-
tant contribution by T. P. Hickerson, Professor of
Civi.' "^.ngineering, entitled, "A New Field Method for
Locatins. '''ircular Curves by Deflections from the P.
I." B\ the use of this new and original method of
handlir,;' an engineering problem of great practical
importanc!^, many advantages are secured, not the least
being the reduction of time by one-half, according to
the author's claim. Accompanying the paper are three
elaborate tables, fully worked out. In form for con-
venient use in the field, the article, with subjoined
tables, will soon be placed at the disposal of all the
State Highway Departments throughout the country.
crties of the nitrotoluenes. The investigation, which
has now been in jirogress for two years, bears directly
on two important industries, explosives and dyes.
In November and December last, four papers were
published in the Journal of Industrial and Engineer-
ing Chemistry reporting progress up to July, 1919.
Other papers are now in preparation dealing with
further work since that date. Two of the luiblica-
tions, one by J. M. Bell and J. P. Sawer (B. S. 1919),
and one by J. M. Bell and C. H. Herty, Jr., (B. S.
1918), have recently been translated into French and
published in Monitenr Scientifique (April, 1920) an
important monthly journal in general science.
• In The Psychological Review (vol. 27, No. 2, March,
1920) appears an extended paper, "A Comparison of
Complete versus Alternate Methods of Learning Two
Habits," by Professor J. F. Dashiell, of the Depart-
ment of Psychology. The experimental work, which
forms the basis of the paper, was done in the Oberlin
College laboratory. It was f(nind that, by employing
two methods, defined as the Complete and Alternate,
learning by the Complete method is more economical
than learning by the Alternate method. The experi-
ments, which were conducted over a long period of
time, are fully illustrated by accurate charts and
diagrams.
Interesting evidences of the work of Frederick H.
Koch in the stimulation of the dramatic interest in
our midst as in the production of folk plays, are
afforded by recent articles in the Theatre Arts Mag-
mine (vol. iv, No. 2, April, 1920). This is an "edi-
torial review" from an article by Professor Koch,
entitled "Folk Playmaking, " in which it is pointed
out that members of Professor Koch's class in dra-
matic comi:)osition have already written folk plays
based upon the rich material native to North Carolina.
In The English Journal (May, 1920) is an article
contributed by Professor Koch, "The Creative In-
stinct and Playmaking", — being a paper read at the
meeting of the North Carolina English Teachers'
Association at Greensboro, N. C, May 2, 1919. After
a broad survey of the dramatic literature of the world,
in its relation to the problem of stimulating popular
imagination, the author describes what has already
been accomplished here, and points forward to the
greater possibilities which the future holds. "As did
the Greeks and our far-seeing Elizabethan forebears,"
fuiely says Professor Koch, "so should we, the people
of this New Day, find a fresh interpretation of our
awakened folk consciousness in new dramatic forms
adequate to express the ideals of our new democrae.y,
of our rebirth in liberty, of our larger conception of
the kingdom of humanity."

tribution : " A Progressive Program for Building and

ways in North Carolina," by Mr. John Sprunt Hill
(U. N. C, class of 1889), of Durham. In order to

j-ear, by means of direct ad valorem tax of five cents
on the hundred dollars valuation, and the remainder
raised b}' issuing "long-tei'm road bonds'" at a rate
not to exceed two and a half million dollars per year.
In this vigorous address the author says: "Let us
truthfully and honestly and strongly and attractively
place the whole facts and the whole argument before
our people. We will then be sure to lift the vision
of our lawmakers away from county lines, penny-wise
economj' and mud turtle philosophy."
In The Biblical World (vol. liv, No. 2, March, 1920)
appears a striking article : ' ' The Second Coming and
the Kingdom,'" by the Rev. F. H. Argo (U. N. C,
class of 1898), of the Memorial Church of the Holy
Nativity, Rockledge, Pennsylvania. In the author's
view, the "coming" througliout the Gospel is a spir-
itual coming.
The issue of School and Society for May 29, 1920
(vol. xi, No. 283) contains as its leading article the
inaugural address of President Chase: "The State
University and the New South. ' '
The fourth of the interesting and suggestive series
of papers by Professor G. A. Harrer, of the Depart-
ment of Latin recently appeared in The American
Journal of Philology (vol. xli, No. 1, January-March,
1920), with the title: "Tacitus and Tiberius." In the
light of the authorities uijon which Tacitus drew, and
on the basis of recent works, which Professor Harrer
cites, he concludes that "Tacitus did not create the
Tiberius whom he describes," "did not himself in-
vent his various characteristics," and indeed, "some-
times expresses a view more favorable to Tiberius
than does his source."
The latest issue of Studies in Philology, entitled
"Elizabethan Studies: Fifth Series" (vol. xvii. No.
2, April, 1920) contains seven papers, varying in
value and interest, and dealing with Scott, Shakes-
peare, Spencer, Milton, the Elizabethan theatre, the
"metaphysical poets," and William Elderton, Eliz-
abethan actor and ballad writer. It is a pleasure to
see again the name of Professor Thornton S. Graves,
of Trinitj' College, as a contributor of one of his
stimulating and thoughtful papers on the Elizabethan
theatre — after the temporary interruption of such ac-
tivities, entailed by his patriotic service as captain in
the A. E. F.
ueetion with this department, which he has conducted
since the first issue of the Alumxi Review. Uui'ing
this period it has been a matter of pleasure and pride
to call public attention to the contributions, whether
great or small, of the members of the faculty here,
and of the sons and daughters of the University scat-
tered to the far ends of the earth. If the space was
limited, the task by no means an easy one, certainly
the effort was always made to give due credit and
to do full justice to the useful, interesting, and valu-
able contributions of all those who constitute the
greater miiversity of todaj'.

With attendance sweeping up to the 1,200 mark,
a limit fixed onlj' by the capacity of the University
to accommodate students, the 33d session of the Uni-
versity of North Carolina Summer School swung into
its second week on June 28, facing a more varied ac-
tivity than Chapel Hill has ever known in any one
summer.
In addition to the more than 700 North Cai'olina
teachers who are studying courses in education and
the 400 students taking i-egular college courses, a
series of institutes has been announced lasting almost
to the very opening of the University for the 126th
session next fall. The public welfare institutes, con-
ducted jointly by the University and the Southern Di-
vision of the Red Cross for social workers of all kinds,
will continue until September 13, the last two weeks
iconsisting of field work away from Chapel Hill.
A special child welfare institute will be con-
ducted July 5-10 imder the auspices of the National
Child Welfare Association, with Mrs. Ira D. Has-
brouch, field secretary of the association, in immedi-
ate charge. The commercial secretaries of North Car-
lina, secretaries of chambers of commerce, boards of
trade, and other industrial and civic bodies, will hold
an institute, August 9-14, the first of its kind in
this State.
Overlapping that institute will come another, the
commimity service institute, at which W. C. Crosby,
secretary of the North Carolina community sei'vice
bureau, will have his 40 field agents for a conference
and discussion of their problems. At the same time
the second meeting of the State and coimty council
will be held, August 17-19, with representatives from
many of the State and countj' departments which are
closelj' connected, present for a rehashing on both
sides of the difficulties of their work.
The new public welfare institutes, the beginning of
the school of public welfare in the Universitj', have
attracted a large number of social workers.

THE ALUMNI REVIEW
A Pioneer in the Stoker Field
Westiiighonse was one of the first among the pioneers in
the stoker fiekl.
Although power stations have grown to enormous size,
with sudden peak loads in some instances reaching as high as
300 and 4U0 per cent normal rating, the remarkable fact re-
mains that the design of the Westinghouse Eoney Stoker remains today practically the same as it was thirty-three
years ago and that it still retains its firm position in the combustion field. This speaks for tlie accuracy of tlie original
design. The Roney Stoker is particularly suitable for stea ly power demands with moderate overloads of 25 to 50 per
cent, and it burns a wide range of fuels satisfactorily. Simple design, low first cost and ease of installation, strongly
recommend it for plants of moderate size. Over three millini horsepower have been installed.
Industrial expansion, however, has wrought many changes in power plant practice since 1887. Today mechanical
stokers are called upon to burn everything from high-grade coals down to refuse. They are also called upon to meet
the sudden and enormous steaming capacities. Hence, two additional stokers were added, and our line now includes
the Chain Grate Stoker, particularly adapted to the burning of low-grade, high-ash fuels; and the Underfed Stoker,
which is unequalled in its ability to handle the sudden and enormous overload demands of central station service with
the highest degree of efficiency.
It is a fact of vital importance to the stoker buyer that we
manufacture the three general types, because stoker applica-
tion should be approached with an open mind and the stoker
manufacturer should be guided in his recommendations purely
liy the facts that develop from a study of fuel apd load re-
(|uirements.

The
Nitroglycerin Wheeler
No baby tucked in its cushioned carriage ever had more
watciifiil care and skillful attention than the nitroglycerin
wheeler gives the concentrated power carried in his rubber-
tired wagon.
Back and forth he pushes it between the nitroglycerin store
house and the mixing house. He follows a sniooth planked
walk made exclusively for his use. At one eiiti of his trij;
the buggy is filled. At the other he pours the nitroglycerin
into a mixing machine by means of the long rubber tube
attached to the buggy. With this act he gives life and
power to Hercules Dynamite.
Soon, before the breath of this modern Hercules, great
motintains fade away; rivers change their courses; waste and
arid lands are changed to fertile fields; metals and minerals,
all important in our modern life, are blown from the earth.
The man with the nitroglycerin buggy plays an iinportant
part in supplying the enormous force necessary to produce
the coal and other minerals and metals which are the pillars
of our iTiatcrial civilization. Look around you as you read
this. Wherever you may be you will find, if you trace it
back, that dynamite made possible luost of the necessities
and conveniences on which your eye will fall. And a very
large part of the dynamite used in this country bears the
name Hercules.

and has put himself into a position where he can draw upon its accumulated
business knowledge and experience, he is especially fortunate.
We shall be glad of the opportunitj- to serve you in any way in our power.
