JOHN SPRUNT HILL
John Sprvnt HilL
JOHN SPRUNT HILL was born near Faison, North Carolina, on
March 17th, 1869. His parents, William D. Hill and Frances
Diana Faison, were both descendants of families who moved to
the eastern part of this State from Virginia in 1770. Here
they acquired large property interests, and have ever been leaders in
the community.
Hill entered the University in September, 1885, at the age of six-
teen. He soon was mai'ked as a man of unusual powers as a student,
and as a man of affairs. He joined here the Sigma Alpha Epsilon
fraternity, and was one of the founders of the Order of Gimghouls.
He easily led his class in scholarship, graduating maxima cum laudew'iXh.
the Class of 1889. He delivered the Philosophical Oration at Com-
mencement, and missed being Valedictorian by a small fraction of
a point.
Li the fall of 1891, Mr. Hill entered the Law School of the Uni-
versity, where he remained a year, leaving here to enter the middle
class of law at Columbia. Soon after his entrance, he won a scholar-
ship in law. While at Columbia, Mr. Hill joined the legal fraternity,
Phi Delta Phi. Li May, 1894, he was admitted to the New York bar,
and in June of that year left Columbia with the degree of Bachelor
of Laws.
Immediately after graduation, he became managing clerk of
a prominent law firm in New York City. In January, 1895, he began
the practice of law on his own account. He is now the senior member
of the firm of Hill, Sturcke & Andrews.
At the outbreak of the Spanish War, in the spring of 1898,
Mr. Hill promptly volunteered for service, and was chosen as one of
the men who composed Troop A and represented the squadron in the
field. He did yeoman service in the Porto Rican campaign.
In the fall of 1900, Mr. Hill was nominated as the Democratic
candidate for Congress from the Fourteenth District of New York. In
this campaign, he conducted a most brilliant canvass in opposition to
the policy of the administration. He was one of the few Democratic
candidates who boldly declared against free silver, and, though support-
ing Mr. Brj'an, favored the gold standard. Although defeated, Mr. Hill
ran four thousand votes ahead of the Democratic ticket in his district.
On November 29th, 1899, Mr. Hill married Miss Annie Louise,
daughter of Mr. George W. Watts, of Durham, North Carolina. They
now reside at No. 264 West Seventy-second Street, New York City.
Mr. Hill is prominent in the social life of the metropolis. He is
a Mason, and a member of the New York Bar Association; the Reform
Club, Squadron A, the Southern Society, the Colonial Club, the Spanish
War Veterans' Association, and the New York Alumni Association of
Sigma Alpha Epsilon. He is a member of the Brick Presbyterian
Church.
Mr. Hill has always kept in touch with the University, and it was
by his generosity that the Hill Prize in History w^as established. He
w^as an honorary ball manager of the Commencement of 1900.
His thirty-one years have been active ones, and the brilliant success
he has attained in the city of his adoption in such a short space of time
speaks much for his energy and his ability.
Introduction,

new movement in the publication of a univer-
sity annual. Hitherto, this has been done by
the fraternities alone ; The Yackety Yack is issued by
the literary societies and the fraternities of the University.
The effort has been made to make it representative of
the whole life of the University. The editors appreciate
the support of the student body, and take tnis opportunity
of thanking all who have aided in this work. Good or
bad, we give it to you with the hope that it may be the
beginning of a permanent University Annual.

Francis Preston Vcnable, Ph. D.
rRANCIS PRESTON VENABLE, Ph. D., was born near Farra-
ville. Prince Echvard County, Virginia, on !N"ovember 17th,
1856. His father was the late Charles Scott Venable, a member
of General Robert E. Lee's staff. Professor of Mathematics,
and for a long time Chairman of the Faculty of the University of
Virginia.
After finishing his preparatory education in the High School of
Charlottesville, Virginia, Dr. Venable entered the University of Virginia,
where he graduated with high honor in 1877. For one year he was
assistant in the University High School at New Orleans, alter which he
returned to the University of Virginia and completed a year's post-
graduate work. In 1880, he went abroad and studied at the University
of Bonn. After he had cimipleted two semesters, he was elected
Professor of Chemistry in the University of North Carolina, which
position he tilled, in a very al)le manner, until elected to the presidency
of the institution on June 5tli, 1900. The spring following the year in
which he was elected Professor, he spent at the University of Gottingen,
where he received the degree of doctor of philosophy.
The reputation of Dr. Venable as a chemist is well known. He
has been regarded as the leader of Southern chemists. This fact is
shown by his election to numerous offices in the section of chemistry of
the American Association for the Advancement of Science. He is now
a fellow of the London and German Chemical Societies.
Dr. Venable has published over sixty contributions to scientific
knowledge. His most important works are, " Short History of Chem-
istry," " The History of the Periodic Law," and " Inorganic Chemistry
According to the Periodic Law" (the latter in conjunction with
Prof. J. L. Howe ).
Endowed by nature with great ability, splendid opportunities
coupled with close application on his part, have made Dr. Venable a
polished scholar and a cultured gentleman. To this he has added the
character of a Christian. Of splendid executive ability, admired and
respected by all that come in contact with him, the record of his first
year as president a brilliant one, it is confidently expected that the
University, under the control of Dr. Venable, Avill continue as it has in
the past, the head of the educational interests in the State.

Senior Class History.
THE Class of 1901 has the honor of being the first to go out from
this University in the new century. We spent most of our
university life in the nineteenth century; we leave, having
passed only a few months in the twentieth. It is fitting to
review, in part, the work done, and to say a few words of the life of
the Class during the past four years.
As we look tack over our four years of university life, there
come up memories and associations which we are unable to keep back.
We shall speak briefly of the more important events — those which have
impressed themselves so indelibly upon us.
The Class of 1901 entered the University four years ago, one
hundred and fifty strong. This was one of the largest classes in the
history of the University. In many ways, we were like other Fresh
classes which had preceded us, and not very difierent from those which
have followed. It did not take us very long to get acquainted with
some who are always willing to assist new men. There was one class
which we did not wish to know that we were here, but they, too, soon
found out that some new men had arrived on the " Hill," so they, in
welcoming us, made special inquiry where the Fresh were from, and,
in an indirect way, wished to know where each new man roomed.
The medicine usually applied to Freshmen (not internally, however,)
did not fail to have its eftect on us. The time came for the annual
watermelon feast, a collection was taken up, and we were especially
invited to attend. We paid for the melons, but failed to participate in
the feast. The remainder of the fall term was an uneventful one until
the December examinations. When English I was reported, a new
supply of red ink was ordered.
Iji the spring term, as it has for the past century, Washington's
birthday came around, and that historic holiday found us, for a part of
the day, at least, in Memorial Hall receiving our well deserved medals.
As time went by, the spring examinations found us in a better condi-
tion than the fall examinations had. We were becoming accustomed to
our surroundings and getting better acquainted with each other, and we
breathed a little more freely, until the annual visit of the Sophomores,
commencement week.
25
During our second year, many kinds of amusement served to
break the monotony of student life. It would be an injustice to the
Class to leave the impression that there was anything done contrary to
the wishes of the Faculty, although we frequently have been alluded
to as the "Naughty-ones."' "We were Sophomores, and acted as such.
AVhen we returned for the third year, our Class was much reduced
in numbers. Some had entered the professional schools — others did
not return. We had left the previous year our feelings of Sophomores,
and were thinking of more serious things — more serious than " Conies,"
even. But there were yet some things which troubled us. One was,
"The Study of Ourselves," catalogued as "Psychology"; another
obstacle in our way was, " The Study of the General Properties of
Matter," or "The Study of Energy." No new theories were advanced,
or any original ideas heard of. But the December examinations were
posted, and some said :
" It is better to be born lucky than rich. "
Others said :
" It is better to get a five than a six."
The spring term came and passed, and our Junior year passed into
history.
With fresh courage and renewed energy, we came back to the
University last September to resume our studies. There are iifty-two
of us. In athletics, our men have always stood well, furnishing some
of the strongest men for the football and baseball teams. On the track
team, our men have aided in winning honors for the Univert>ity. In
the Inter-Society and Inter-Collegiate debates, we have been well repre-
sented. Intellectually, the Class is very good, having furnished a good
number of men to the Alpha Theta Phi.
Now, fellow classmates, the time of parting is drawing near, and
we who have spent four years at the University, standing together in
victory and defeat, must say farewell. It has passed into a proverb
that success is reached through failure — repeated failure has come to
all. We have made many mistakes. Man, at best, only moves towards
what is perfect, and the goal is reached through the lessons taught by
repeated mistakes. We leave to take part in the larger world. We
shall alvv^ays think of our Alma Mater as the "Mecca" for North
Carolina. Historian.

Junior History.
OCCASIONALLY, in these dreamy spring-days, your Historian
gets to moralizing as he looks back over his college days.
What a complete little life those three years are ; a life that
had its birth and growth to higher powers ; a life, too, that
leads to another beyond it. These golden college days; they are indeed
an epoch, a period in the lives of us all. "VVe shall never see their like
again.
September, 1898, ushered us into this little world — little to those
beyond us, but how real and whole to us. We came silently, hesitat-
ingly, an unknown world lay before us. We were not even a class, just
ninety-six men gathering to a common goal. Among our ranks, we
counted men and hoys — from the smart youngsters of barely sixteen to
the man who had already faced the problems of the world and
found them a hard reality. Men from the east who had followed their
team across eastern loam under a blazing summer's sun ; men from the
west who in the depths of winter had " loaded " timber down our great
western divide. And yet all of them were become as little children,
the newborn, the youngest of the college world. The rude elements
were thrown together in the crucible. Much there was of good, much
of evil; some affinity, and much dissension. What would be the out-
come ? Time has shown. Standing now in the third phase of college
life, looking forward to the full manhood of Seniority, we can point
with pride to our record and say, " All is well."
As Freshmen, our lot was not other than that of most Fresh
classes. We realized in a way our newness and greenness; we may
even have been ashamed of it. The Sophs harried us, the Professors
laughed at us, our Class team was sorely defeated — there w^ere none so
low as to do us reverence — but yet we did not despair. The Sophs
indeed suggested that we throve and flourished like a green gourd vine.
The summer of 1899 passed and we came back again, but vastly
changed — in bearing if not in mind. The humble guise of Freshman
had dropped from us ; we were Sophomores rampant ; our voice was
37
loud in the land. Our ranks had thinned, but we had blood in our
eyes ; our day of tribulation was past. The Freshmen trembled before
our mighty raids and the Faculty, remembering perhaps their own col-
lege days, got off' ragged wit about " Sophomores and other fools."
"We aspired to athletic honors and our team made an enviable record.
In scholarship, too, though sorely tried by Conic and Chemistry, we
stood well to the fore.
And now, once more the wheel has swung round; we are Juniors,
upper classmen, envied by those below us. We do not claim perfec-
tion ; we are even disposed to be cynical, but not of our own merits.
At last: our class " knows itself "; the spirit of hearty cooperation has
entered. The year has not yet ended but already we can point to a fair
record. The class team tied for championship ; on the 'Varsity we can
count such men as Carr, Roberts, Brem, and Willcox. We have faced
Psychology and Junior Physics without serious disaster. Ten of our
men have made Alpha Theta Phi, the honorary society, — the largest
number that has ever come from one class. Kluttz, who helped win
last year's Vanderbilt debate, and Williams and Stern, our Georgia
debaters this year, are from our ranks. And now. Senior year is close
at hand and the gap that once seemed so far is almost bridged. The
year has been pleasant. Perhaps, as Seniors, we may look back with
ill-concealed amusement on our Junior year, and smile to think how
far we are above such follies. It is strange how readily one holds the
past as of little worth and fancies the present nearest perfection. But
I can not trifle longer; if you are interested let me commend to you
" Hoffding on Consciousness." And now your Historian yields the
scene. His task has been a pleasant one ; his only regret is that he
could not serve you better.
Historian.

History of '03.
T
** ^ I ^HE Class of 1903," said Dr. Alderman, "is the best prepared
class that has, within m^' experience, entered the Univer-
sity." Never has the efficacy of a good foundation been
more emphatically illustrated, for the Class of '03 has,
thus far in its career, always and in all things excelled. The Sophomore
year of this great class has been conspicuously successful. Last fall,
the boys of '03 returned to the University with eyes wide open to the
hardships of the course, but with eager confidence that they both could
and would surmount them. That they have done so, and that they
have done so gloriously, the books of the registrar abundantly attest.
Horace, Demosthenes, Trigonometry — all these are things of a beau-
tiful past. But the Class of '03 has been foremost not in the general
routine of their studies alone. The debating societies have felt the
weight of their eloquence. The University 31agazine has profited by
their literary talent. In short, the Class of 1903 has proved itself
invaluable to the University in every intellectual pursuit.
But let no one think that we are a mere set of thin-chested grinds.
As successful as the Sophomores have been in the intellectual, they
have proved themselves equally successful in the athletic. When, in
the autumn, there was a call for plaj^ers on the 'Varsity football team,
among those broad-shouldered, massive giants that went forth upon
the field, how many did we recognize as the boys of '03! And when
the pigskin, after a hard fought field, would finally be pushed heroically
over the line, how often at the end of those nine enthusiastic " rahs,"
would come forth the name of a Sophomore ! But, though with the
interest of our Alma Mater always first at heart, we lent the strongest
of our material to the making of that 'Varsity which proved itself so
successful, still in looking over the statistics of the class games, where
can we find so many and grand victories as those of '03 ?
After the exciting days of football came the slow lull of the long
winter months, when, by the precedent of all our ancestors, it was the
47
privilege of the Sophomores to salt the Freshmen. And, as in all
other things, so in hazing, the Class of '03 showed great spirit. Yes,
many were the home " lamb babies " that, after the departure of their
mysterious nocturnal visitors, by reason of a sudden change of color,
Avould not have been recognized by their own mother. But in our
dealings with the under-classmen we have always been kind and
pre-eminently generous. Witness as a proof of this the fact that on
the night before George Washington's birthday, even when the benef-
icent Faculty would have deprived them, we presented, amid great
hilarity, to the more deserving of the Freshmen, appropriate medals.
Now, when at last after the long winter, our beautiful campus
rejoices once more in the fresh verdure of spring, comes the season of
baseball and track athletics. Looking over the field, we find the Soph-
omores again at their posts, and the conviction forces itself upon us
that wherever is the success of our grand old University there also is
the Class of '03.
Did I say '03? Yes; these are numerals which throughout life we
will wear on our hearts, and of which we are justly proud— proud
because we feel that our Class is both an honor to the University now,
and that in years to come, through its alumni, it will prove an honor
to the State— prouder still because we know that, whatever happens,
whether successful or unsuccessful, the Class of 1903 will go forth into
the world true Southern gentlemen, every one.

History of the Foundation of the Dialectic and
Philanthropic Societies.
By Kemp P. Battle, '49.
THE Dialectic and Philanthropic Societies are almost coeval with
the University of JSTorth Carolina. Charles W. Harris, tutor of
mathematics for the first term January to July, 1795, and then
the first professor of that department, was an honor graduate of
Princeton College, whose legal name was "" College of ISTew Jersey."
There he was an active member of the Whig Society, still flourishing.
He induced the students of this institution to organize what was called
" The Debating Society " on the third of June, 1795. The first president
was James Mebane, of Orange, afterwards of Caswell; the first secretary
(then called clerk) was John. Taylor, of Orange; the first treasurer was
Lawrence Toole, of Edgecombe, who afterwards changed his name to
Plenry Irwin Toole; the first censor morum, was Richard Sims, of Warren.
All were good men. Mebane became Speaker of the House of Commons.
It is noticeable that he, together with the then president, Kemp P. Battle,
presided over the Dialectic Society in 1848, when their new hall was
dedicated. He died in 1857, leaving an excellent son, Giles Mebane,
Speaker of the Senate, to perpetuate his virtues. Taylor was a merchant
of Chapel Hill. Getting the Western fever, he exchanged his home, where
Mr. Alexander lives, for six hundred and twenty-five acres in Tennessee
owned by the University, and emigrated to that State. Toole was a highly
respected planter. He was grandfather of Bishop Joseph Blount Cheshire.
Sims was the first princijial of the Grammar School. He moved from
Warren County and I have been unable to follow him.
The objects of the Debating Society were expressed to be the cultivation
of lasting friendship and the promotion of useful knowledge. The niem-
131
bers pledged themselves under hands and seals to obedience to the society
laws, and due performance of the regular exercises. The following are
the names of the fathers of the Dialectic and Philanthropic Societies, as
entered on the journal:

There was no constitution eo nomine. In its place were " Laws and
Regulations," some of which are worthy of mention. The officers were
a president, censor moruni, two correctors, a clerk and treasurer. The presi-
dent and treasurer held office for three weeks, the others for double that
period.
The censor morum was clothed with powers and duties which would
not now be tolerated. He was " to inspect the conduct and morals of the
members, and report to the Society those who persevere in inattention to the
132
studies of the University, in neglect of their duties as members, or in acting
in such a manner as to reflect disgrace on their fellow members." This
powerful office was evidently modelled on that of the august censors of
Rome.
The Society met on Thursday evenings only, after supper. The mem-
bers were divided into three classes. These read, spoke, and composed,
alternately. There was a debate at each session, two opposing men, pre-
viously appointed, being required to open. After they finished, the others
had a right to engage in the discussion, but were not compelled to do so.
It was the duty of each of the class, whose turn it was to " read,"
to hand in a query, then called " subject of debate." Out of these one
was chosen by the Society.
By " reading " was meant the reading aloud an extract from some
book, not an original essay. Of the other members, some declaimed mem-
orized extracts, others read aloud short essays of their own composition.
Two votes were sufficient to negative an application for membership.
The term, " black ball," was not used. The new members were required
to promise " not to divulge any secrets of the Society."
It was made dangerous to " take umbrage at being fined," and to
" denote it by word or action." If the fine was decided to be correct the
offender was forced to pay twenty-five cents as a penalty for squirming.
There is no record as to how much sour looks or facial contortion was held
to be " denoting umbrage " by " action." Laughing and talking were not
punished unless they interrupted a speaker. The wearing of hats was
forbidden, although usual in the English Parliament, but the president,
at least of the Dialectic Society, was required to preside with covered
head for many years.
The admission fee was twenty-five cents. Three months' unexcused
absence required new admission. A member could leave the Society with-
out asking its consent, but could not be readmitted on any terms. Joining
was not compulsory.
The first motion ever made in the Society was for the purchase of
books. It passed unanimously.
The first speech was by James Mebane, who sustained the affirmative
of the first query ever debated in the University of i^orth Carolina; " Is
the study of ancient authors useful? " He was answered by Robert Smith.
The classics won the victory by a vote of the Society.
133
At the second meeting, June lltli, 1795, it was agreed to admit no
more new members. A great moral question was then discussed; " Is the
truth always to he adhered to? " The decision was that " breaches of faith
are sometimes proper." It appears from a subsequent entry that the right
to deceive an enemy in war caused tliis decision.
THE CONCORD SOCIETY.
On the twenty-fifth of June, 1795, Maurice ]\foore moved tliat the
Society be divided. The motion was laid over for one week and on dul\
2d was taken u}) and carried. The new organization was called the Concord
Society. No reason appears on the journal for the division. Tradition
says, and there is probability in it, that the movement was caused by
party feeling, which was hot throughout the land, and doubtless entered
to some extent tliese ch>istered j)recincts. Jeffersonian democracy claimed
to be tlie peculiar champion of " Universal Brotherhood " and popular
freedom. The name " Concord," and its substitute " Philanthropic," and
the addition of '" Liberty," to the motto of the other Society, Love of
Virtue and Science, seem to support the tradition that the chief members
of the new Society were inclined to follow Jefferson, rather than Hamilton.
A second reason was, I think, dissatisfaction with the powers and
duties of the censor morum. The office was omitted at first in the new
body, and when after many months it was restored, its duties were confined
to the behavior of the members in Society. Even this proved unsatis-
factory and the name was changed to vice-president.
For some weeks it was allowable to be members of both societies,
which met in the same room on different nights. The first student, Hinton
James, and the sons of Judge Moore, Maurice and Alfred, belonged for a
while to both. AVhen duplicate membership was forbidden they elected
the new.
The journals do not give an official list of the '' fathers " of the
Concord Society. After careful investigation, I think that the following
can be relied on :
Hinton James New Hanover
Richard Eagles New Hanover
George W. Long Halifax
William C. Alston Halifax

John Taylor Chapel Hill
William McKknrie C'lauk Martin County
David Gillespie Duplin
Edwin Jay Osborn . . Salisbury
Evan Jones Wilmington
Nicholas Long Franklin County
James Paine Residence unknown
Alexander McCulloch Halifax
David Evans Eduecombe County
Henry Kearney Warren County
Thomas Hunt Granville County
Leavis Dickson Duplin County
John Bryan Sampson County
Lawrence Ashe Dorsev Wilmington
Joseph Gillespie . . . . • Duplin County
The records of the Dialectic Society show that the foUowing remained
in the Debating Society, their fnll names and residences having been
ah'eady given: Messrs. Harris (Tutor), Houston, Toole, PI. and F. Burton,
R. Smith, Bennehan, Kinchen, Sims, Haywood, Rufhn, James, Green, A.
Osborn, W.Dickson, Sneed, J. and E. Pettigrew, H.Davie, Mebane, M. and
A. Moore. Of these, James and the two Moores soon joined the CN.mcord
Society and J. Pettigrew followed a year afterwards.
The above statement shows that Maurice Moore may be considered
the father of the Concord Society. He was a man of bright parts; was
a member of the Legislature from Brunswick, and as such made an eloquent
appeal in behalf of his Alma Mater, threatened with destruction by hostile
legislation. He challenged to a duel. Governor Benjamin Smith, who
had reflected on his father, Judge Alfred Moore, and shot his antagonist
in the hip. Afterwards he removed to Louisiana and stood high as a
citizen and as a planter.
The first meeting of the Concord Society was on August 10th, 1795.
David Gillespie was the first president, Evan J.ones, the first treasurer,
Henry Kearney, the first clerk. The first debaters were George AV. Long
and Henry Kearney on the question, '' Which is best, an Education or a
Fortune?" Long supported the afiirmative, and it is consistent with the
honorable career of the Society that the decision was by a vote of the
house in his favor.
The two bodies worked efliciently and uneventfully for about a year
when it occurred to the members of both that their names were not of
sufficient dignity.
135
On the twentv-fifth of Aiio-iistj 1796, in pnrsiiance of a motion made
by James AVebb, of Ilillsboro, a week previously, the name " Debating "
was changed to " Dialectic," a word of the same meaning, derived from
the Greek. Four days afterwards, on the twenty-ninth of Angust, 1796,
Philanthropic, likewise of Greek origin, replaced Concord, on motion of
David Gillespie. This Gillespie was a thonghtful and influential student.
He was strongly recommended l\y the Faculty for the United States engi-
neer service and did good work for our Southern harbors. James Webb was
afterwards an eminent physician of Ilillsboro, I^. C, ancestor of numerous
worthy citizens.
The fundamental laws, afterwards called constitutions, of the two
societies, were much alike. In the Concord, for a short while, members
were admitted by a majority vote, but if the applicant was under fifteen
years of age a two-thirds vote was required. It was not long, however,
before the strict rule of the old Debating Society was adopted.
A short statement of the regular work of the two societies may not
be uninteresting.
As to declamation, we miss Patrick Henry's " Give me Liberty or give
me Death," because his biographer, Wirt, had not then written it. In its
place were Cicero's invective against Varres, Demosthenes against Philip,
Micipsa against Jugurtha, and Brutus over the body of Lucretia. ISTo extract
from Otis, Adams, Henry, R. II. Lee, Rutledge or other Ee volution ary
statesmen, was given, nor was any selection from the great English orators.
The ancient classics ruled the day.
The " Readings " were from histories, poetry, the Spectator and the
like, generally very serious. Indeed, David Gillespie once chose for his
exercise an extract from the preface to Murray's Grammar. Occasionally a
comic piece was produced, for example, " The Stuttering Soldier "; " The
Bald-headed Cove "; "Anecdote of Miss Bush."
'Not many of the subjects of the compositions are given. I notice
'' Oratory," " Eloquence," " Unpoliteness " (not Impoliteness), and " In-
dustry."
The subjects chosen for debates, and the decisions of them by votes of
the members, throw greater light on the intellectual attitude of the students.
Public education was decided to be of more value than private, and
the schoolmaster than the preacher. Modern history was voted of more
136
value than ancient; and the French language, than Greek and Latin.
On the query, "Does travelling improve the niind^" is the following
curious entry by the clerk. " As the question intended for debate is not
thinkable, the opponents coincided in opinion. The debate was therefore
not a good one, but after the regular question we debated on this question,
' Does a man with a competency, or he who is in a very affluent station
enjoy most happiness?' " The vote sustained Solomon that a competency
was preferable. It sounds strange that it was seriously debated whether
''corporal punishment should be introduced into the University?" the
verdict being adverse. It must be remembered that there w^ere many
small boys in the Grammar School, then a part of the University, and we
learn from contemporary letters that they were often troublesome to their
elders.
On questions of religion and morals the decisions were usually ortho-
dox. The Bible was sustained as the word of God; polygamy and temporary
marriages were pronounced evil, and suicide never right, even Lucretia
being stigmatized as blameable. The thief was voted as worse than a liar,
but he was allowed to be satisfied with his nine-and-thirty on the bare
back, and to escape hanging. It was mercifully agreed that a minister of
the Gospel might accept money for his services. Lovers of fun should be
comforted by the vote that " Moderate fortune and good-humor are pre-
ferable to a large estate and bad disposition." Other decisions were that
" Health is better than riches " ; that " Love of mankind is more prevalent
than love of money " ; that " Man is happier seeking his own approbation " ;
that " the Immortality of the soul is not deducible from reason " ; that
" Beasts have no souls." It is certainly notable that high-spirited Southern
young men, in the wild days of the French Revolution, " debated with
warmth, but could not come to a conclusion on the question, ' Is it justifiable
to kill one who is threatening one's life? ' "
The auspicious beginnings of the Dialectic and Philanthropic Societies
are worthy of their distinguished careers of usefulness and honor. Thou-
sands of men eminent in all the walks of life have had, and now have,
grateful memories of the benefits received by participation in their exer-
cises, and the friendships contracted among the members.

The Non-Fraternity Element.
JSr the agreement for the publication of The Yackety Yack, it was
expressly stated that the Non-Fraternity element of the University
should be represented, as a class. This was but just as they make
up a large part of the student body, and are recognized as a sep-
arate class quite as much as the other societies.
The intention of the editors was, at first, to give a group picture of
them. The large number rendered this impracticable. We must be
content with a short sketch of what they are.
As will be seen, this part of the student body takes its name from
the fact that the men who make it up do not belong to the Fraternities.
It must not, however, be thought that all men who do not belong to the
Fraternities are N"on-Frats. There are some who stand on the slippery
middle ground. There is no regular organization ; but whenever it is
necessary in the different classes, organization can be brought about at
once.
Unfortunately, University politics has become a race between Frats
and Non-Frats. It is here that the whole University becomes most con-
scious of the existence of a strictly Non-Fraternity party. They have
quite their share of the Class officers. The officers of the Class of '01
are distinctly Non-Frat; likewise, the officers of the Class of '02 are also
Non-Fraternity. The officers of these two classes have been Non-Frat
since their Sophomore years.
But it is not merely in claPS elections that this weight is felt. In
every phase of University life where men excel, Non-Fraternity men are
found. Many of the strong men sent out of the University were Non-
Fraternity leaders. Among others may be named J. O. Carr, of the
State Assembly; J. E. Alexander; J. C. Eller, whose untimely death we
mourn; Allsbrooke; the Van Nappens; Herman Harrell Home, now of
Dartmouth College, and D. B. Smith. At the head of this list we should
properly place C. B. Aycock.
In oratory and debate, the Non-Fraternity men have taken the lion's
share. On the inter-collegiate debates, of the eight men sent up against
155
the Georgia boys, six have been Non-Frats; of the four men on the
Vanderbilt debate, two have come from this side of the house. All four
of this year's inter-collegiate debaters are Non-Fraternity men.
They have been only a little less conspicuous in inter-society debates
For this year, in the Soph-Junior debate, one-half of the debaters were
Nons. In the Junior-Senior debate, three of the four men belong- to
this side. All four of the Commencement debaters are Non-Fraternity.
Both literary societies are largely under their control.
Their record on the athletic field is not quite so good as on the plat-
form. Still, on the University's Roll of Honor will be found many a
good name that is on the ISTon-Frat list.
In scholarship, Non-Fraternity men start handicapped by reason of
the fact that a large majority of them have not had the advantages of
good preparatory schools. One or two years at the University serves
many to rise above this disadvantage. Of the ten or twelve strong men
of the Senior Class, one-half are Non-Frats. The same is true of the
Junior Class. In the two lower classes the showing is not so good,
owing to this lack of preparation.
Probably the l)est showing is made by the Non-Frats in the winning
of medals. The Mangum Medal and the Representatives' Medal are
considered the two highest. In the last eight yearly contests the Man-
gum Medal has been carried ofi six times by Non-Frats. In the last
seven yearly contests for the Representatives' Medal (it was abolished in
1900) it was won six times by Non-Frats.
It is not the purpose of this paper to vaunt the Nons — only to tell
what they are doing. They are known quite as well by what they do
not as by what they do. They do not dance, not because they would
not like dancing, but because they do not know how. They do not
wear dress suits, not because they would not look nice, but because they
have none. They do not go into society largely, not because they could
not carry themselves with grace and ease, but because society does not
send for them. They do not sport, not because they have no sporting
blood, but because they know by experience the worth of a dollar
They do not root, because it is beneath the dignity of a man.

Young Men's Christian Association.
N MAY, 1860, the Christian students at Chapel Hill met and adopted
a constitution modeled after that of the Young Men's Christian
Association of the University of Virginia, which was written by
an accomplished Christian student there, now one of our honored
professors. The first president of our Association was James Kelly, '60.
A. Hill Patterson was secretary. The aims of the order w^ere set forth
in the preamble to the constitution :
" We, the undersigned, desiring to promote Christian sympathy
and brotherhood, and to advance the moral and religious welfare of the
students of this institution and of others around us, and impressed wdth
the importance of united effort in accomplishing this object, have
formed an association."
But in one short year the dark war-cloud, so long brewing, burst
upon the quiet college town and drew the best blood of our University
into its whirling vortex. Two-fifths of the officers and committeemen
of the infant association sleep in soldier graves, martyrs to love of
country. In 1876, a reorganization was effected; Arthur Arrington
was president. Among the workers till 1886, Eugene L. Harris and
J. H. Southgate are prominent. Mr. Harris especially w^as enthusiastic-
and successful. After leaving here he devoted his life to the work, and
is now a most beloved advisor of our Association and leads our personal
workers' band.
The above-named gentlemen, with a few others, were consecrated
and eftective leaders in the religious movement, and raised a high
standard of Christian character and service. Then came a decline. In
March, 1886, the state convention met at Chapel Hill. Seven or eight
places were represented. L. D. Wishard addressed the delegates and
nominated the new professor of English, Dr. Hume, as chairman of the
State executive committee. After this time mone}' and men returned
to the Association, the University especially feeling the impulse. From
this point started the interest in the Student Volunteer Movement,
169
svhich resulted in the dedication of a large number of young men to
the foreign tield, like W. L. Wilson, George Worth, and Lacy Little,
preceded by K. T. Bryan, all students of ours.
The Association has lived through many trials, and is now in
a prosperous condition. During the present year an office and reading-
room has been furnished and adorned with beautiful pictures, the gifts
of our friends. About tifty men are in Bible classes, with daily study
of the Word. Several are working in the Sabbath schools of the com-
munit}'. A chapel on the University farm has been erected and a Sab-
bath school organized. The Association is in the hands of God-fearing,
earnest, Christian men. May our Young Men's Christian Association
grow and prosper.

University Record.
TllK University Uccord was established in 1896 by the Faculty and
students of the University. The purpose of this publication is to
give a coni})lete record of the more important events of University
life. It also aims to keep the Alumni in communication with the
University and thus bind them more closely to their Alma Mater. The
Record is now in its fifth volume and its value to the University has been
eminently demonstrated. It is issued quarterly under the management
of a committee appointed by the Faculty.
Journal of the Elisha Mitchell Scientific
Society.
THE Journal represents the Science Department of the University of
Xorth Carolina. It was established by the EHsha Mitchell Scien-
tific Society in order to publish the results of scientific investi-
gation in the laboratories of the University. It is now in its
seventeenth volume. The first was published in 1884 imder the manage-
ment of Professors Graves, Philips, and Harris. The University of Xorth
Carolina is the only institution of the South that has maintained a publica-
tion of this kind and it has done much to bring before the world that great
Southern chemist, now President of the University — Dr. Venable. The
Journal has now over four hundred exchanges from twenty-five different
countries, some of which are published by the most important scientific
societies of the world. The Journal stands as a memorial of what the Uni-
versity has contributed to the world's stock of scientific knowledge and is
a worthy monument of the great man whose name it bears.

place. It wonld seem that once Labooter had constituted a valnable portion
of the neighboring country's soil. But certain seeds called denominational
seeds had been sowed in the outside land, which seed would not take root
in Labooter soil. The two lands had been involved thereupon in a brawl
and the end of the brawl was permanent separation and endless l)order feuds
which were continued year by year. And once each year the natives of the
surrounding parts selected for themselves a fixed number of champions
who were always able to break through the fortifications and reach the
capital. But despite their vehement hostility they were always received
and welcomed with such humility that they felt ashamed and having
required certain of the chief inhabitants to wallow in dust and lick the same
from their boots they then withdrew. It astounded me to learn of such
subserviency but I could not by words overcome the power of the estab-
lished tradition.
I was therefore silent till one of the citizens who had known me on
iiiy former visit addressed me with words of gratification and told me much
news. To mv deep regret I learned of the death of Lord Alderhomme who
had been chief of the projectors at the Labooteran Academy.
215
He had been succeeded l)_v Ids iie])lie\v Venpossum, Dnke of Chendab,
who, as my friend told me, had shown himself in all respects, both in
splendor of dress and in attendants and in nnldness of ruling so far superior
to all his predecessors that the Academy had been bestowed upon him as
his own in pereonal right.
As 1 had known the Duke's uncle, and indeed the Duke himself on
mv former visit, I felt end)oldened to seek his presence. On being ushered
into his othce of state 1 found there a heavv strong nuin with sloping
shoulders. He faced about at once on my entrance and I recognized my
acquaintance Duke Chemlab, now Lord Yenpossum. He gave me a most
heartv welcome, and immediately accosted me with this question, which
he averred had troTd)hMl him imicli: "Are hard students selfish; and are
athletes unselfish^ "
On my replying that 1 thought not; since the athlete's beneht to his
fellows, even under the most approved modei'ii methods of avoiding fulfil-
ment of signed agreements, could last but six years; where the students
prepared himself for a useful life of fifty years — on my replying thus,
he at once agreed and revei'sed a former decree issued to the contrary
effect. I then gladly accepted his courteous oft'er to escort me round the
various buildings.
He led me first past an awkward, red-brick Inmse which I remembered
to have seen before. To my surprise I learned that the spaces between
the thick buttresses which jutted oiit at six-foot intervals all round the
establishment were now used at will tor tenqxtrary hitchings of the many
asses that belonged to his estate.
AVe next ])assed the beginning of a new house which he asserted was
being erected as aceommodatiou foi' students wIkksc arrival was fixed for
the fourteenth of Septend)er, I'JiST. This sceuied to me a most wise
measure of foresight and we passed on.
After passing by another half-completed building, which I was
informed was to be used as a bank and repository for the earnings of all
those who had ended a course in the Academy, we sought rest within a
certain new building of marble, white and dappered with gray. Of this
house the Lord Yenpossum and his retinue seemed very proud. All within
was still as death, the dwellers there being all, though it was now twelve
of the clock, fast in sleep. I learned to my astonishment that here all spent
2l6
the niii'lit ill labor (U- rcvcllinus and the day tlicy passed in sIuiuIkt. F also
noted a certain Ethiopian janitor who walked slowly and licntly ahoiit upon
shoes with rubber soles, never making- so much as a sound, save only when
one called. He then emitted a strange guttural cry and hastened quietly
to the call. And, too, I observe that the smooth polished walls were cracked
from top to hottoni with a great crack. On iiKpiiring the reason for this
crack I was told that the house had been constructed in great haste since
it must needs be completed l^efore a certain date.
Morever I learned that, carefully as this building was ordered, when
on certain days of festivity the inmates roused themselves and went forth
to view the joys, then certain vultures flocked to the upper windows of the
house and watched from afar the process of the joys, seeking to smell the
fragrance of the particles of meat and rich food which were devoured by
those who paid to have their part. Occasionally, it w^as said, these vultures
even swarmed upon the palisade which inclosed the space allotted to the
participants in the joys. This procedure ^vas much resented; but since
these vultures were even more low-spirited than the average, the matter
could not be rectified.
We then retired from the house and repaired to the Duke's office of
state. He here told me of the achievements of a student in the Academy
who had drawai up a code of morals accepted by the entire corps of students.
Among the laws drafted in this code was one appertaining to the matter
of cheating. ( 'heating was defined to be a lying method of securing good
marks Avithout work done. " Provided said practice was carried on between
the fourteenth day and the twenty-first day, inclusive, of May." Another
strangely consistent law liore reference to theft. " Theft," said the law,
is the wilful removal of another's property without his or her consent,
whether said property be held in partial ownership by remover or not.
Provided: that if said theft be made upon books or magazines owmed by
the Academy the theft is not theft. Provided further: that the wilful
removal of any lamps, apparatus or any material whatsoever, except
material in the form of coin, be not theft." One matter more was of
interest. " It shall be the duty of no one to enforce these laws. And so
long as a man remains a student in this Academy he shall be exempt from
all laws, except those contained in this code, whether said laws be moral,
religious, mental, or physical."
Lord Yenpossiim then inipartod to me nuieli knowledge of a general
natnre. Tlirongli tlie window he pointed ont to me a rich, green field
across which ran a ninddy streak of path, mining its beauty. This path
was, he said, made hy the tramplings of a certain ass called " Junius the
More Fresh," which trotted daily across the field and paused only at night,
and once each week during the day, at which pause he brayed vociferously.
A certain stenogra])her took notes upon his brayings and having interpreted
them, published a newspaper devoted exclusively to this matter and to the
manipulations of a club called the Tremble-arrow Club.
He lastly told me to my astonishment of a certain lieutenant of his
estate who all his life had struggled to create something out of nothing
and without external agency. This was not clear to me and I hesitated to
disturb him by many questions. These and many other matters of import-
ance and interest ho courteously revealed to me and I retired from his
ofiice feeling glad at heart to have made this second vovai>-e to Labooter.

Shepard engage in co7iversation.'\
Shepard: " Why, ]Miss Perry, you ouglit not to tliiiik of leaving
Chapel Hill before Commencement is over."
Miss Perry (Coyly) : " You know the students don't want me to stay
to Commencement for I have been here all the year. At the finals they '11
be paying attention to their special friends and I '11 bo entirely forgotten."
Shepard {Flatter inghj^: ''That you'll not! I'll stand by you and
see that you have a good time; T wish you 'd stay. Why can't you? I 'd
like to take you to the T. ]^. E. German on Thursday of Commencement
week."
Miss Perry: ''' Oh, Mr. Shepard! that is simply lovely in you! But
you know — (Pausing a moment) Well, I '11 decide right now to stay, but
you must remember your promise to see that I have a good time. I am
sure I '11 not be left if I can count on you to — "
Enter Brewster and Stephens.
Brewster : '' Miss Perry I think you have promised me the jdeasure
of this dance."
Exeunt Miss Perry and Brewster.
Stephens {Turning to Shepard): '" Say, Richard, have you seen anv-
thing of my partner — oh, I see her now over yonder. (Starts off and then,
comes had' and speals Inirriedly) By the way, I got a letter from Miss
Boteler last week and she says that if she does not go to Kentucky in June
2 19
she is coming to commencement. If she comes I am going to make her
engagements. She asks me to save the T. IvT. E. for you. It seems from
what she writes that you made this engagement last commencement.
Please keep it open until I hear from her again."
Shepaki) {Confused): ''No, — I — yes — er — that is — but let me tel'.
you some — "
Stephens {Intevvupting): "Excuse me, my partner is calling me;
I '11 see you again." {Hurries off.)
Shepakd: "But, Stephens — He's gone now. {Tuining) That girl
ought to know — (Pauses a moment, then in constefiiation) Well, I '11 be
durned." [ Curtain. 1

meditation, seats himself on the bed-l
Shepard: " Two engagements for T. X. E. ! I wonder if — "
Enter Brewster.
Brewster: " Shep, here are two letters that came for you this even-
ing. I put them in my pocket intending to give them to yon at the dance
but I forgot tlieni until just now."
[Brkwster hands Shepakd two letters in blue envelopes, sits down and begins to
undress. Shepard, still frowning, takes the letters.'\
Shepard: " Thank yon. [Aside, as he looks at one of the letters)
Miss Boteler's writing. I guess she is going to remind me of that T. X. E.
engagement I made ^\dth her about ten years ago {Tears open the letter,
reads, smites and hols much reliered). Xed, Miss Boteler says she is going
to visit a school friend in Kentucky and can't come to commencement."
{Stdl smiling.)
Brewster: " Xo doubt, that will be very pleasant for jMiss Boteler
but why are yon so happy over it? "
Shepard (Getting serious and preteiiding to tool- much concerned):
'" Oh — T — I — er — I am not — I am sorry she can't be here, too. I should
like very much to have an engagement with her."
Brewster : " But what about your girl 'i Is she coming this year i' "
220
Shkpahd: " This other letter is from her. Let me see wliat she says
(Beads aloud) : ' Since von have assured me that it will l)e no trouble for
jou to fill out my card for tlie finals, I shall accept your offer to do this
and you may have for yourself the eng'ag'ement you ask for — I know I
shall enjoy the T. X. E. german which' — um — er — that 's all. She '11 be
here; (Smiling broadly) I'm in luck! I was afraid she was not coming,
but as soon as I told her I 'd give hier a full card of engagements she said
she 'd come and let me take her to the last german of the week."
Brewster: " But don't you think this is a little late to begin making
engagements? Most of the boys have had their engagments made for a
month, especially for the society dances."
Shepard: " That 's all right — I '11 get 'em made O. K. I '11 give you
the T. X. E. with her, right now."
Brewster: "I am sorry, Shep, I can't take it. All of my engage-
ments are made. There are no T. X. E. engagements open, Stephens tells
me, but I '11 help—"
Shepard: "Oh, pshaw; Stephens doesn't know what he is talking
about. Of course, I can get Miss Harlowe's card filled without any trouble.
I '11 sit down at once and write her to that effect."
Brewster: "Well, I hope you are not mistaken." (Shepard sits
down to ivrite and Brewster continues to undress.)

ACT II — SCENE I.
^^Commencement. Ballroom, during President's reception. Stephens and
Brewster engaged in conversation.']
Brewster: ^' Have you seen Shepard lately? He is in a bad way."
Stephens: " l\o, what 's the matter? "
Brewster: " The poor fellow's girl is here and he can't get all her
engagements made. When she wrote liim she was coming to commence-
mient, he had made only one engagement, his T. N". E. Now that is the
very one still unfUled and he has told her she is going to every dance.
Stephens: '' But doesn't she see from her card that she has no partner
for T. X. E. ? "
Brewster (With a sympathetic smile): " Xo, poor soul that he is,
when she wrote him a week ago to send her a list of her engagements he
ran all over college trying to make the unfilled engagement. 'T was all
221
in vain, and, holding to the forlorn hope that something would turn up
eoninieneenient, he pretended to be very indignant and wrote her a letter
saying that if she had trusted him to fill her card she ought not to question
his ability to select her the right kind of partnei-s."
Stephens: '^ Then he had to ' fess up ' when at last she got here? "
Bkewstee (Laughing): " Xo, for the last day and a half he has been
giving her the names of her partners one at a time, always pretending to
have left the full list in his other coat. Here he comes now."
Enter Shepard,
Shepard: " Have either of you a T. X. E. engagement open? Xo, T
remember now, T have asked you about this before. (Confideniially^
Fellows, this thing troubles me. T must make that date for my girl. I
have seen every T. X. E. in the ])hK'e, students and visitors, and every one
is engaged. I wish you fellows would keep your eyes open and let me
know if you hear of anything."
Bkewstee: " AVe '11 try to help you. But say (Wlid-hig at StrpJiens)
have you told Miss Harlowe that I want to take her to the Pi Sigma hop
to-morrow? "
Shepakd (Jlcsitaluigli/): '"Yes — no — that is not yet. I'll tell her
next time I see her — . Yonder 's AVakeley ; let me see if he has made his
T. isT. E." (Shepard dashes off.)
Stephens: " He is in a bad fix."
Brewster: " Hard luck! "

\_Senior Ball. Enter Shepard and Miss Perry.]
Miss Perry: ''I took your advice, Mr. Shepard, and remained hero
for the dances. (Shepard looks hored) The boys are just as lovely as
they can be. I am having such a good time! And to-morrow I am going
to that lovely T. IST. E. with you. Ts'ot every girl, I hear, goes to the
T. K E."
Shepard (Unentlnisiastir): " Yes. I shall claim the pleasure of that
dance with you,"

J\Iiss Pekky (;S7(7/ (jushing): "Yon ought to be very happy, Mr.
Shepard, for I sec you have a special friend here."
SiiEi'AKD (1)'(7// a frown): " Yes, very pleasant."
Miss Perry: " What a charming girl she is! Who is going to take
her to the T. X. K. in the niornin"'^ "
Shepard {}Y ith an, attempt at cheerfaJness): "Oh, don't you worry
about her. She '11 be there, you can count on that."
Enter Brewster aa'd Mis.s Harlowe.
Miss Perry: "• Here she is now w^ith Mr. Brewster."
Brewster: " Miss Perry I have your name on my card for the next
dance, I hope that is right."
Miss Perry: ''Yes; and you w^ere telling me, Mr. Shepard, your
next dance is with Miss Harlowe. (Significanfty) That is very pleasant."
(They exchange partners.)
Exeunt Miss Perry and Brewster.
Miss Harlowe (Hesitatingly) : " Mr. Shepard, you have not told me
yet who is my partner for the T. ]^. E. german."
Shepard (Turning pale ihen stammering wealdy): "1 — er — I was —
I have — er — the fellow I made your engagement — had to — er — I mean,
got sick at the last minute and had to go home but — I — er — I am going
to ask you — er — if I may take his place. I know I have — er — one with
you already Init can't you let me have this one too — 'i You know — "
(Looks more emJjarrassed and comes to a dead stop.)
Miss Harlowe: " Certainly, Mr. Shepard. (Innocently) " AVho was
it you said got sick? "
Shepard: ''Oh — er — er — Mr. — Mr. — (Stephens rushes up followed
more slowly by Brewster.)
Stephens: "Miss Harlowe this is my senior waltz with you. Let us
begin ^^dth the music.
Exeunt Stephens and Miss Harlowe.
Brewster (To Shepard who is standing as if dazed): "I have just
spoken to a fellow who was here about ten years ago about an engagement

with Miss Harlowe. He is a little old for dancing-, hnt in yonr dilemma I
thonglit you 'd not have objected to a one-legged Avar veteran, so ^liss
Harlowe goes to the german — "

Shepard: " Then it 's no nse, Xed, for — 1 — I have told her I \\ take
her myself."
Brewster: "Man alive! I thought — What about Miss Perry?"
Shepard (Turning green): " Old boy, I 'm feeling pretty sick (stag-
gers). Here, give me your arm. Help me to a carriage. (They wall-

Oh, the wild west wind is swinging
Soft in the aspen tree,
And the rapturous boughs are singing
With the secret of love bringing
Over the western sea.
And the song that the w'nd is singing
Is the song I would sing to thee.
Oh, the lark with his song is filling
A world for his mate in the lea,
The air is throbbing and thrilling
With heart-beats uttered in trilling
Glad in the love to be.
As the lark with his song is filling
I would fill all the world for thee.

Oh, the stars in their spheres are singing
The song of eternity ;
They utter their souls in the ringing

The Annual Festival oi the Sophomores.
Moron,
1. And it came to pass that the twenty-
second day of the second month in tlie first
year of the reign of Gordon was approach-
ing. Then did the men who are called
Sophomores rise up and bethinlc them-
selves.
2. The day of rejoicing set apart by
our ancestors will soon be upon us. Let
us celebrate it fittingly.
3. Let us award medals to the men of
the Freshmen, that this festival may be
remembered and kept throughout every
generation, every family, every province,
and every city.
4. Then spake he of the curly hair :
" Knowest thou not, O Sophomores, that
a certain tribe called Faculty will set upon
us, yea, and tear us limb from limb if they
see us celebrating this day of feasting and
gladness ?
5. ■' So let us spring a march on them.
Let us hold our day of gladness on the da\-
before. Let us capture the men of the
Freshmen before they see fit to depart from
the land. " And it was so decreed.
6. So on the night of the twenty-first,
that is the day before he who is called
George Washington was born, did the
Sophomores capture the men of the Fresh-
men and drag them to the slaughter-pen
on the third floor of the palace which was
built by he whom men call Julian S. Carr.
7. The first man to receive a medal was
Bohannon. On an unsteady box did he
climb. And great was the risk and peril
in getting on the box for certain of the
Sophomores did make it unsteady and
wobbly.
8. And the great high muck-a-muck of
the Sophomores said : ' ' Bohannon, I have
the honor to award you the first degree
big-fool medal ; guard it well." Then the
rejoicing was great till even the walls shook
XIII.
and the skylight blew out. And Bohannon
became baptized and rejoiced exceedingly
thereat.
9. And Hunt received the second degree
bior-fool medal and was baptized with water
thrown swiftly through space.
10. And Henry Lee received the dog-
faced man's medal and a voice cried out:
" Bark like a doer, Fre.shman." And Henry
said : ' ' Bow — wow — wow. ' '
11. Next, Sifford climbed upon the
trembling box and received the tenth de-
gree big- fool medal. "Raise your right
hand and swear that you are the biggest
fool in college," cried he with the perpetual
smile. And Sifford did so.
12. And Bass, the " Bull-Tamer," and
Stewart, the " Dirty Man," received their
medals and great was ihe rejoicing thereat,
for the awards were appropriate.
13. And Cox was declared the " Lord
High Proprietor of the Campus."
14. And Catlett, Stanes, Winston and
Hoskins received honorable mention.
15. Now a grand ball was the next
thing on the programme and the Freshmen
were told to dance. And they danced.
But not all danced.
16. Those who would not dance were
baptized. Yea, they were wet, even to the
skin. And water was poured down their
necks. And they shivered, for the water
was cold.
17. Thus ended the day of feasting and
rejoicing. And thus were the customs and
manners of the ancestors of the Sophomores
perpetuated and honored.
18. And that the events of this day may
live in the memory of all men for all time,
this chapter has been written. And these
things are so, for can they not be found in
the Tar Heel ?
227
A
Our Animals.
MOXG other things whieli are essential to a great institution of
k'arning, we of the University of North Carolina are very happily
possessed of a large menagerie. AVikl beasts which have been
partly tamed only by the most careful training, are daily seen
traversing our wooded campus. These animals at times have tierce en-
counters, as was the case a few days ago, l)etween a bull and a pug. It is
needless to say who was the victor in this ferocious clash, most vivid and
exciting.
AVe will first, in descril)ing our large zoo, name the bulls in order of
their size: " Bull of the Woods," Galloway; " Bull of the Senior Class,"'
Stokes; " ]]ull of tlie Library," Bernard; " Bull of the West," Jones; '' Bull
Johnson," also known as " Sword Swallower;" also a " l)aby bull " by the
appellation of " Bully Jones."
Young bulls, commonly known as " steers," are very rare hereabouts
and are seen only about once in Weeks.
Dogs are also scarce, though we have several dog-faced men. Among
the ])ug family, " Pug " Hartley is included, and " Lee " should be enlisted.
" Keno " (Jant is the champion dog of the Hill, and has not as yet met his
match. The " Dog-faced Men " have elected, for their president, "Joe-
Joe " Eamsay.
"■ Babbit " Turrentine, " Bear " Davenport, " Moidvcy " Hoskins,
" Pony " Stern, " ]\Iink " ( unningham, " Rooster " AVebb, " Buck " Urqu-
hart, " (\\h " Sawyer, and " Lamb," wlio has many sheepish ways, are eacli
in a class by themselves and need only brief mention here.
Before closing 1 would like to mention a great no\'elty, in the person
of a " human steam engine," known as " Too-Too " Fred Bynum. This
machine attaches chairs to its body, in a South Building room, and flies at
great speed, without even applying the regulation anthracite.
The " heavenly twins," of noble pedigree, are a marvel indeed. These,
together with the " Christmas gifts " and the squirrels, which have just
arrived, complete the long roll of our zoo.
Suffice it to say in conclusion, that there is great danger from these
beasts on account of lack of cages. I suggest to the next Legislature, that
an extra appropriation be made for purchase of said cages. It ^\dll ensure
both the safety and M^elfare of pedestrians and zoo.

The Champion of 1901.
The Seniors one bright afternoon,
With grave and reverend look,
And charming pose, and Sunday clothes.
Had their Class picture took.
Now, did their grave demeanor strike
All spectators with awe ?
Oh, not a bit — it drew their wit —
Oh, how they worked their jaw !
One guy was there amid that throng
( We will not call his name) ;
In matchless brass and ceaseless gas
He put them all to shame.
But do the mighty Seniors not
Object when he begins?
No, not at all ; both great and small
They 're hacked and wear dry grins.
But, ah ! He gets too personal
At last ! With fearful frown
And accents hoarse and fierce, of course,
Bro'er X doth call him down.
Full boldly forth before the throng
He strode, his stern ej'es flashing :
" It 's moved," he said, ''and seconded,
That I give that man a thrashing."
The mighty Seniors rise as one,
And pride shines in each eye :
" The Champion of Nineteen-One !
Hurrah for him ! " they cry.
Then Y, for so we '11 call him, did
Not hesitate or sta3\
He came ahead, and boldly said :
" Well, I '11 meet you half-way.
They fall together, X and Y,
Like windmills fly their arms :
No skill or might enters this light
(They both were raised on farms).
Tlie picture-man was liorrilled ;
He tried to stop the bout.
But when his hat was crushed quite flat
He speedily drew out.
The scrap soon gets monotonous —
Their skill is not admired :
With willing heart they 're pulled apart,
For each was getting tired.
230
Each combatant was satisfied —
Eacli one had made his blutt",
And eacli was pleased to get released
Before the scrap got rougli.
But ah, alas ! what evil tongues
Are in this world of sin !
The crowd doth gu}- both X and Y
Till each one blutis again.
Next morning at the mail they meet.
X challenges full soon :
" We '11 have it out,'' he says, "about
The well this afternoon."
That evening at the well was met
A crowd. Such a collection
Has not been seen thereat, I ween,
In Bill Jones's recollection.
Courageous Y waits on the scene
For bold X to arrive.
He looks like to the tierce Bosco,
The one that eats them alive.
" But where is X ? Why don't he come? "
The crowd begin to cry.
And then they cheer, for X draws near.
But slowly draws he nigh.
Two friends of his are hanging on.
To keep him otf they try :
We must admit they managed it
Exceeding easilv-
If only peacemakers are blessed,
It then must be allowed,
A small per cent, was then present
Of blessed folks in that crowd.
For two men strive to cool down X
And two men work on Y.
The crowds look on with open scorn
And bitter taunts apply.
But see ! The cause of peace prevails.
Each one doth thus agree :
" Well, I am go'n' to let him alone.
If he don't fool with me."
Now, to conclude, I '11 tell the truth
To you (I trust you love it) :
*T is to be feared that each was skeered
And the other one glad of it.

A Model Recitation.
FOR THE BENEFIT OF SENIORS WHO ARE EXPECTING TO TEACH.
, A — , will you c'outiniu' with the lesson? Go on, we are
waitinu on yon. Have yon a l)ook? (Mr. A — . " Xo, sir.")
Then yon ninst either get a book or leave the class; what!
wish to recite witliont a book? I hope people will not help
others to be nule (»r I will have to be personal. Yo\i are strange people
to nie. There Avere only two men who began to appland wlien that man
came in and the rest of yon nnist follow their example; — the whole class
is a fake. Brains in yonr feet need exercising instead of in yonr head.
Yon men on next to the back seat yonder, chew the end of reflection.
Before high heaven, yon all are playing fools; I am ashamed of yon — you
are janitors to a prejudice. Mr. B — , will yon please answer that question.
What! Didn't understand it? Why, that's funny; it was loud enough
to be heard all over the room. Mr. (' — , were you al)le to hear that last
question, where you are sitting over there in that corner? (Mr. C — . " Yes,
sir.") Well, I knew it was loud enough; — the method of the teacher was
perfect, but you won't jiay attention. Xow, just look at that man snoozing
over there at that post ! The class disgusts me ; 1 am ashamed of you — yon
are acting the farce. Xow, three or four over there must giggle. I 'd
hoot the eternal powers and the eternal decencies, and stop that fool
giggling. Can't we wake nj)? My method was perfect and you make me
lose this valuable time — you are more amused at the teacher than at the
lesson. AVe have a set of fools making fun at their teacher. It is an
ignorant crowd who will allow it — yon have not the piddic spirit to put ii
down — I don't know a man in here that I would trust to public feelings.
Xow, let's continue wutli the lesson. What's Tennyson's method? etc.,
etc., etc. Xow there are just two men over there who are not paying atten-
tion. T wish you would stop writing there — it l)ores me to death to see
232
some one trying' to take down what I say — 1 will stop and wait tor Afr. C
to stop writing. Now, let us continnc the lesson: ' Heroes are great men.
etc' ^h: C — , will yon answer that ([nestion! Won't yon please go on — I
don't hear yon — go on, please — go on! I can't get an answer, but get a
giggle from most of yon. AVhat a farce the class is! Yes, giggle over
there; I have yon spotted and will call yon out l»y name in a moment. Von
ought to be slapped down — slapped down with arguments. Xow, you are
sneaking — sneaking behind the nund)er of the class. The teacher has been
trying to get your attention for the last fifty minutes, and you see how-
useless it is to teach without the whole attention. Xow won't some one
please answer^ Xow here is an allusion to the Divine Book, but this don't
appeal to some of you — the ones that were playing baseball on last Sun-
day — some of yon haven't a bit of religion. Oh, my God! I feel sorry
for you that lie abed until noon on Sunday while God's divine ser^-ice
is going on. I am ashamed of you; ' get up and get! ' I 'd rather be a
Pagan! (Bell rings) Just one moment before I dismiss the class, I want
to make just one statement: That if any of you have missed a recitation
you get a five on that w-ork, and you must stand a special examination on
the second Saturday of the month. I didn't make the rule — it was made
by the faculty — and you are required to comply with this rule; your grade
is five if you ignore it. Also all those who have not handed in that essav
which was assigned to you, and all those of the second section of the con-
ference who did not meet the teacher on the first Saturday of the month,
will be allowed until the first of next month in which to do this work.

Beautiful ? Of course she is. My ! My !
look at that curley, wavey, hair; Look
at that laughing eye !
Look at those hands ! O ye gods! ! Say
they were made of clay ?
Are sunbeems made of yeller dust ?
Are angels made of hay ?
They are the gift of fairys, and of the
gods divine,
and they were made of jewel dust,
Mixed with bones and sparkling wine.

What in the world
to give a friend?
College men know and the A^ew Haven Unio7t says, apropos of term-end
with its good-byes: "The question of what in the world to give a friend at parting
seems to have been solved by the publication of
Songs of All the Colleges
which is alike suitable for the collegian of the past, for the student of the present,
and for the boy {or girl) with hopes; also for the music-loving sister, and a fel-
low's best girl."
" All the NEW so7igs, all the old songs,
' ' and the songs popular at all the colleges ;
" a welcome gift in any home anyzvhere."
