Co
Col. 7<5hn 8. Cuningham,
a loyal son of bts
Hlma Mater and of bis native State,
this volume is respectfully
dedicated by
Che Editors.
Col. '^ohn S. Cuninsbam,
COL. JOHN SOMERVILLE CUNINGHAM was born in Warrenton,
N. C, September 5, 1861, and is a son of the late Hon. John W. Cun-
ingham, who was for more than thirty years a member of the House
and Senate of North Carohna, and was long accounted the most influential
citizen in Person County.
After a thorough course at the famous Horner School, at Oxford, and
Bingham School, at Mebane, the subject of this sketch entered the University
of North Carolina, and there completed an excellent education.
Although one would judge that the talents and tastes of Col. Cuningham
tended toward a professional career, still with rare intuition he chose as his
field of labor, the management and improvement of his large inherited estate,
intending by this means to demonstate the superiority of Eastern North Caro-
lina in agriculture over other sections of the country, and especially for the
raising of the celebrated "golden leaf" variety of tobacco.
Col. Cuningham was well equipped for his sphere of life, being the
possessor of large wealth, a host of friends, great intelligence, a keen
business insight and pleasing manners.
As might well be expected, he immediately achieved success, and has
become one of the foremost planters in the South. He has introduced new
methods into farming, and by his active interest and example has improved
the agricultural interests, not only of his own State, but of the entire South.
As a recognition of his leadership in this line of life, Col. Cuningham
had the honor conferred upon him of being chosen to preside over the large
assembly of prominent agriculturalists, known as the "Interstate Farmers'
Convention," which met at Danville, Va., in February, 1888.
Col. Cuningham was a delegate to the Paris Exposition in 1889, and
traveled exten^vely abroad, visiting France, England, Scotland and Ireland,
and carefully comparing the condition of the laboring classes of these countries
with those of our own.
Although always attending strictly to business affairs. Col. Cuningham
has taken an active part in political matters, being known as one of the lead-
ing Democrats of the State. In 1889 he was married to Miss Otelia M. Car-
rington, of Virginia, daughter of Col. Henry A. Carrington, of the Confederate
Army.

00
When Gov. Fowle was inaugurated, he appointed him the senior mem-
ber of his staff, with the rank of colonel, and when Gov. Holt succeeded to
the gubernatorial office, he requested Col. Cuniiigham to retain his position
on the staff.
Col. Cuningham has an excellent library and takes great interest in
history and literature. He has also quite a reputation as an orator, and is
known as an eloquent and forcible speaker. One of his most celebrated
addresses was that on the subject of "Tobacco," and was delivered at the
"Farmers' National and Pan-American Agricultural Congress," held during
the "Cotton States and International Exposition,'' in Atlanta, in 1895. He
has been in great demand in every part of the country as a speaker on literary,
agricultural and political questions, and has thus made himself known through-
out the nation, besides taking special interest in education, immigration and
other cjuestions of the day.
Col. Cuningham for many years steadily refused to become a candidate
for any political office, though many fine opportunities presented themseh'es,
but being finally persuaded to accept the candidacy for the State Legislature,
he was elected in November, 1896.
He was the caucus nominee and candidate of the Democrats for Speaker
of the House, being supported by legislators representing 145,000 votes, and
was only defeated by the fusion of the Republican and Populist forces.
Although a patriotic man in the national sense of the word, he is pre-
eminently a North Carolinian, and is always glad to aid his nati\e State by
every honorable means. Thus Col. Cuningham now stands as the exponent
of the "Old South" and the "New South," and his "Alma Mater" may
well point to him as one of her noblest sons, and also a true type of the cul-
tured Southern gentleman of today.

Xtttroduction*
HFTER weeks of trial and tribulation, amid the busy round of
numerous Class duties, the Board of Editors introduce to you
the eighth volume of THE HELLENIAN. Not many new
lines have been undertaken this year, but an effort has been made to
enlarge upon and improve those features which have hitherto been
deemed suf&cient for the Annual.
To those who have shown such a kindly interest in the work
we tender our sincerest thanks. Especially is it a pleasure to
acknowledge our indebtedness and gratitude to Col. Benehan Cameron
for the very substantial aid and encouragement he has given. What-
ever of a success our book may be is due in no small measure to his
generosity.
With a due appreciation for contributions received from other of
our friends, and with the hope that the Ninety-seven HEIvLENIAN
may prove a pleasant memento of our college life, we are.
Respectfully,
THE EDITORS.

H Hvicf Review.
THE University of North Carolina and the State of North CaroHna were
born 'n the same year — 1789. During these one hundred and eight
years the University has been the mightiest piece of social machinery
within the borders of the State. It reached its ante-bellum climax in 1856
with 461 students. It has reached its climax of genuine usefulness and power
in 1897 with 400 students and the largest teaching force and the fullest
equipment in its history.
The University is non-sectarian in religion, non-partisan in politics, and
as impartial as justice in social relations. It cherishes the fair ideal of investi-
gation and discovery, but it places humanity above truth and seeks above all
things to awaken all the people to the beauty of truth and the effectiveness
of knowledge. The University rests upon the rock of public favor, public
necessity and christian democracy, and it shall endure forever ! The spirit
that pervades its life today is equality, opportunity, manliness, and self-help.
In the following imperfect resume one may see the evidences of its
wonderful expansion in the last six years : —
1. Increase in numbers of one hundred per cent.
2. Remodeling of its campus and buildings.
3. Extension of the elective system.
4. Establishment of the Chair of History.
5. Establishment of the Chair of Pedagogy.
6. Establishment of the Department of Pharmacy.
7. Extension of the Medical Course.
8. Establishment and growth of the Summer School.
9. Establishment of the Chair of Biology as a separate department.
10. Erection of Commons Hall.
11. Admission of women to post-graduate work.
12. Final consolidation of its libraries.
13. Establishment of electric light plant.
14. Establishment of the University Press.
15. Increase of teaching force.
16. Increase of appropriation.

Xtt^uguration of president Hld^i*^^".
ONE OF THE most important events in tlie history of the UniversitA',
probably the most important, was the inauguration, on January 27,
1897, of Edwin Anderson Alderman, of the Class of 1882, as Presi-
dent of the University of North Carolina. The Legislature adjourned over
for the ceremony — an event without precedent in North Carolina — and more
than one hundred members came from Raleigh to Chapel Hill bv special
train in order to be present. The hall was tilled to overflowing with a dis-
tinguished company, and the exercises were of the most dignified and
inspiring character.
Col. Thomas S. Kenan, 1857, was master of ceremonies. Ex-President
Kemp P. Battle, 1849, to whose efforts is due the revi\al of the University
in 1875, delivered an address of welcome on behalf of the faculty, and Mr.
Robert H. Wright, 1897, spoke on the part of the students. The President
was inducted into office by His Excellency, Daniel L. Russell, 1861,
Governor of North Carolina. Professor Nicholas Murray Butler, of Columbia
University, New York, delivered a congratulatory address as representing
his University and the institutions of the East.
Among the visitors present were : President C. D. Mclverand Professor
P. P. Claxton, of the State Normal and Industrial College, and Misses Bing-
ham and Massey of the same institution ; Professors D. H. Hill and W. H.
Riddick, of the State Agricultural and Mechanical College; Professor W.
L. Poteat, of Wake Poorest College ; President C. F. Meserve, of Shaw
University, and the superintendents of the city schools of the State who had
met at Chapel Hill to do honor to one of their profession who had never
engaged in any work but that of a teacher, and had come through fourteen
years of successful experience in puljlic school work to be the head of the
State's greatest public institution.
The enthusiasm that prevailed was most significant, and President Alder-
man's inaugural address was a marvel of lucidity, force and eloquence, which
held the undivided attention of his audience for more than an hour and a-half.
When the Presidency of the Uni\'ersity became vacant last Summer, with
remarkable unanimity the people of the State, particularly the teachers, and
the faculty and students of the University, looked to Professor Alderman,
and he was the unanimous choice of the Trustees. His experience of four-
teen years, and his management of the University thus far, have justified the
the wisdom of his selection.

Cl^'ip^l Rill and X^s Vicinity.
THE SITE of the University was once called New Hope Chapel Hill. It
was nearly all densely covered with forest, a favorite with hunters, who
had their deer stands along the paths leading between the valleys of
the creeks to the nort^ and south of the ridge. The road from Petersburg
and that from Newbern crossed one another somewhere in or near Mrs.
Graves' garden. In the northeast corner of the cross was a chapel of the
Church of England, attached to St. Matthew's Church, Hillsborough. The
minister, Parson Micklejohn, adhered to the British in the Revolutionary
War, and hence the chapel, losing its preacher, went to decay and ruin.
The wife of Rev. Dr. James Phillips remembered seeing some of the
fragments strewing the ground in 1826. The Trustees of the University, in
1793, established a village out of the lands donated to them, and called it after
the second half of the original name.
The hill is an upheaval of granite belonging to the Laurentian system,
i. c, the system of rocks about the River St. Lawrence, or St. Laurentius.
It is a part of the coast line of a primeval arm of the ocean, some 250 feet
lower than the country west of it. This arm is here sixteen miles wide ; the
eastern coast is lower than the western. In the course of time the bottom
was elevated by some subterranean force and became dry land. Durham is
situate on this ancient sea bottom.
The rains falling on the Chapel Hill plateau run off by numerous brooks
into two creeks, that on the north being Bowlin's, and that on the south,
Morgin's Creek. These brooks and creeks have cut up the land into deep
and sinuous ravines, and, therefore, there is a vast wealth of lovely flowers,
gray crags, noble trees, graceful curves of hills, and beautiful, diversified
scenery.
PiNEY Prospect. — The village is about a mile from the primeval sea.
The eastern extremity of the ridge on which it is situate is like a promontory,
overhanging the sea. It was by General Davie, the father of the University,
called Point Prospect. In old times point was pronounced pint, and hence,
the neighbors, seeing on its summit some lofty pines, changed the name to
Piney Prospect.
From this summit is one of the loveliest views east of the Blue Ridge.
In the distance can be seen the steeples and chimneys of Durham, the lofty

trees near Apex and Cary, while the smoke of the locomotives on the North
Carolina and Raleigh and Augusta Air Line Railroads, curls gracefully in their
tracks. Raleigh is about 200 feet lower than the eastern coast of the water-
less sea, and is, therefore, invisible, but whenever sky-scraping rockets are
sent up by its jovial citizens, their flame plainly flashes above the horizon.
" The wave of woods and cornfields, and the abodes of men scattered at inter-
vals," in the wide expanse below the observer, remind him of Byron's
Dream.
On the crown of Piney Prospect Hill, within a circular area, is a round
rock which is the mythical tomb of Dromgoole, who, disappearing from the
University and having never been heard of afterward, legend hath it, was
killed in a duel and buried underneath. About a hundred yards to the north
is a stone block in the shape of a chair, just large enough for two, called the
" Lovers' Chair." To the south, following a winding path which leads by
the Rifle Pit dug; by Wheeler's Cavalry as they retreated before Kilpatrick's
pursuing column, then going down the hill and crossing the Raleigh Road,
the walker comes to " Miss Fannie' s Spring," by whose brink, according to
Hamberlin's beautiful poem, Dromgoole and his ladylove of that name,
often sat discoursing sweet nothings. Afterward, wailing his tragic death,
she frequented the spot until she joined him in the spirit land.
About a mile toward the northeast from Pinev Prospect, on what was
evidently an islet in the ancient sea, is a copse of woods on a hillside. Near
its center is a cluster of massive rocks, and in their midst is a rude chamber,
closed on three sides and partially covered overhead by the beetling cliff". In
this dismal retreat a runaway slave, named Tom Morgan, lay hidden for many
months, emerging at night to subsist by robbery. Such terrorwas caused by
his depredations that a force of men, armed with shot-guns, scoured the forest
and succeeded in finding his hiding-place and capturing the robber. This is
the "Robber's Den," or "Black Tom's Lair." With boyish curiosity I
visited it the day after his capture and gazed with awe and pity on his bed of
leaves, his shoemaker's bench, the charred fire-logs and the bones of pigs and
fowls, relics of his lawless life.
Toward the southeast in the valley, about a mile distant, is the plantation
devised to the University by its last owner, Mrs. Mary Elizabeth (Morgan)
Mason, for the education of poor students. The bequest she requested to be
called after her daughters, Martha and Varina, who died just as they reached
womanhood. The portraits in oil of the young ladies, and of her husband.
Rev. James Pleasant Mason, are by her request hanging in the University
Library, and the authorities have added hers to the collection. The planta-
16
tion is one of the best in the county. On it is the burial lot of the family, in
which, besides others, is a handsome white marble monument erected by the
University in accordance with the wishes of the testatrix.
On the south side of Morgan's Creek on this plantation, is one of the two
famous Laurel Hills. Here in addition to trailing arbutus is a fine growth
of the grand evergreen shrub, the botanical name of which is Rhododendron
Catawbiense. Professor Asa Gray, in one of his books, says that this species
never is found below eighteen hundred feet. But one of our professors, Dr.
F. W. Simonds, sent him specimens and he promptly acknowledged his error.
The other Laurel Hill is near the mill of Bennett and Oldham, which our old-
est Alumni knew as Barbee's, our elderly Alumni as Cave's, and our middle-
aged as King's Mill. To these hills annual pilgrimages are made by young
men and maidens, intent on despoiling the plants of their beauteous treasures.
Occasionally the dryads and naiads by way of punishment turn over the slip-
pery stones in the creek-crossing under the tripping feet of the damsels and
send them drenched and disconsolate homeward. They always emerge
safely from the disaster, for " where there's a IViV/s there's a way " out of all
such troubles. Haifa mile above the mill is a lovely defile between verdured
hills, where the water sings gaily among the sweet odors of yellow jasmine
and the bright colors of woodbine. This is " Otey's Retreat." Here, about
three-quarters of a century ago, a young University tutor spent much of his
time studying his books, or romantically recalling the image and the words of
his ladylove, Miss Eliza Pannill. The lady was kindly and it was not many
years before she journeyed to Tennessee, the wife of James Hervey Otey,
Bishop of Tennessee.
Higher up Morgan's Creek is Purefoy's Mill, famous in the old days,
before railroads came, as Merritt's Mill, whose brand of flour was much sought
after in our eastern counties. The pond here is a lovely sheet of water and
is much used by the students when swimming or skating is the lashion.
Still higher up this stream on its western bank is a notable hill declared
by Professor Cobb to be the extinct crater of a volcano. Suspicion hath it
that in this neighborhood, in a still wilder and more secluded spot, there was
not very long ago another kind of " cratur," not at all extinct, but alive with
all the fiery headiness of moonshine "old corn " — whiskey. But Professor
Cobb and his geological class did not chance to look that "cratur" in the
mouth.
We will now cross the ridge toward the north, and descend into the
valley of Bowlin's Creek. Rising to the north we see the Iron Mountain,
where excavations show a goodly quantity of valuable ore, but up to this time
17
too far from coal to be merchantable. Lower down is a most romantic defile,
called Glenburnie ; in it was the oldest pre-Revolutionary mill in this region,
called Yeargin's. The mud-sill may still be seen. There is a story that
when the Indian and the white man hunted together over these hills, a dusky
maiden, Winona, loved a young pale-face. He returned not her affections
and soon he vanished, his tracks ])ointing toward his home beyond the ris-
ing sun. Painting her face and donning- her finery as if for a wedding festi-
val, she paddled her canoe, singing plaintively as she went over the crown
of the lofty dam, and was dashed to pieces on the jagged rocks below. Any
listener can still hear the murmuring of her voice among the rocks, over
which flows the cruel stream.
Descending the stream we come to the " Valley Mill Pond" with " Clover
Hill" overhanging it. This sheet of water is a favorite for skating and is
much visited by those fond of walking. The fishing is indifferent.
Below the mill the valley widens. On the north is an abrupt hill named
rdter the first president, Dr. Joseph Caldwell, who, although a good Christian,
was called, because of his skill in capturing wicked students, "Old Bolus,"
/. e., diabolus, or the devil. Mount Bolus gives a lovely view down the stream
and in the distance.
The hill on the south, opposite Bolus, is distinguished by having on it
one great solitary pine, the last survivor of many such. Beneath it is a
beautiful fountain, gushing freely Irom the hillside into a natural stone basin.
This " Lone Pine Spring," as it is named, is the best specimen of a mountain
spring in this neighborhood.
On the country road going through this (Tenney's) plantation, on the
left as it reaches the valley, there was, fifty years ago, a farmhouse, then inhab-
ited by the negroes of Professor, afterward Bishop, Green, but prior to
his ownership, by Benjamin Yeargin, one of the donors of the Lhiiversity site.
My father, Judge William H. Battle, told me that in this dwelling, so remote
from the L-niversity buildings, he, with President Polk and other students,
had their table board, walking to their meals three times a day.
The hills on Tenney's plantation afford a very distinct view of Durham,
especially of Trinity College. This plantation and Piney Prospect were the
favorite goals of afternoon strollers in the old days. Some deflected to the
left and visited " Love Rocks," a fine cluster of boulders in the grove which
is between Tenney's and the town. Others went off to the right by a wind-
ing path into the woods east of President Winston's house, and found at the
bottom of the hill a lovely spring, with the grand name of " Roaring Foun-
tain." The place is very rugged and romantic, but was injured recently by an
1«
attempt to use the water in a hydraulic ram. Mrs. Spencer wrote a neat
poem, "The Lament of the Naiad of Roaring Fountain," complaining of the
desecration. President Winston replied with the " Answer of the Dryad,"
through the mouth of a croaking bull-frog.
We are now near Battle Park, so called because the paths permeating it
were cut by a former president of the University with his " little hatchet " as
a recreation from his anxious University work. Seats may be found here for
loving couples, bearing such romantic names as Trysting Poplar, Anemone
Spring, Fairy Vale, Lion Rock, The Triangle, Over-stream Seat, Vale of
lone. Glen Lee, Wood-thrush Home, Dogwood Dingle, Flirtation Knoll.
One of the loveliest walks that can be found is through the southern edge of
the Park to Piney Prospect, then by a winding path northward to the brook,
then up its meanderings to the village, about two and a half miles in all.
The cemetery is not well kept, but has some interesting monuments of
students who died far away from their homes, of venerable men and excellent
women, of a gallant Confederate colonel, Edward Mallett, a son of the L'ni-
versity, killed in one of the last battles of the Civil War, and buried in his
bloody uniform. His swords are hanging in the Library.
Taking a road running in a southerly direction near the east wall of the
cemetery, and, after following it for three-eighths of a mile, deviating to the
right by a path through a growth of young pines, the pedestrian will reach a
most romantic spot, the "Meeting of the Waters," where Chapel branch and
Rockspring branch come together among num.erous gray rocks. The dense
shade of the lofty trees, the musical murmur of the tumbling streams, the
high bluffs covered with mosses and ferns, hepaticas and heart-leaves, the
rustling of the leaves of the tree tops, and the perfect calm below, make this
an ideal place for lovers of Nature.
I close this paper by pointing out two more places of interest. One is
the "Mineral Spring," near the point where Professor Holmes' beautiful,
well-graded new road curves away from the steep and rocky old Durham
Road. The other is the " Point of Rocks," about ten steps on the west of
the Hillsborough Road, a little north of Mr. John Ward's dwelling. It is on
his land, but he is a most kindly man, and I am sure will not object to visitors
enjoying from its summit a most charming view of rolling hills and lovely
vales, and all the many-hued beauties of forests and the setting sun.

May 15, 1 86 1. He was prepared for college at the Bethel Military
Academy, near Warrenton, Va., and in 1878 entered the University
of North Carolina. His college career foreshadowed a successful life work ;
he was a leader in every phase of University life, and on graduation, besides
receiving special honors in English Literature and Latin, won the Willie P.
Mangum Medal for Oratory.
On leaving college he immediately entered on his chosen work of educa-
tion, being elected principal of the Goldsboro High School. In 1885 he
assumed the superintendency of the Goldsboro Graded School, which by skill-
ful organization he made prominent among North Carolina's public schools.
From 1S85 to 18S7 he held the honorable position of president of the North
Carolina Teachers' Assembly. In 1889, as State Institute Conductor he began
a three years' canvass of the State, that resulted in untold good to the cause
of education. His brilliant oratory, zeal, and intense earnestness drew large
audiences, composed of all classes and conditions of people, and brought as a
reward a great educational awakening from one end of the State to the other.
In [892-3 he occupied the Chair of History and Literature at the State
Normal and Industrial School, which he had done so much to establish, but
resigned at the end of the year to accept the Chair of Pedagogy at the Uni-
versity of North Carolina.
His work in this capacity proved him a teacher of preeminent ability,
and his course became at once one of the most popular and important in the
curriculum.
While occupying this position the task of organizing the University Sum-
mer School was imposed upon him. So successful was he in this undertaking
that the school is now one of the best of its kind in the whole country, and
has made for itself a distinctive place among the State's educational institu-
tions.
In 1S96, the president's chair being vacated by Dr. Winston, the trustees
unanimously elected him to the presidency of the University. Thechoice
gave great satisfaction to all sections, parties and professions throughout
the State.
24
Soon after his election the honorary degree of Doctor of Common Law
was conferred on him by the University of the South.
Dr. Alderman has been at the head of the University now for one year.
During this time the same vigor in administration and skill in organization
that characterized his previous work have been evident ; while his uniform
frankness and fairness in all matters of discipline have made him honored and
respected by all the students.
Among the great educators of the country Dr. Alderman is not without
honor. At the great national educational gatherings he has represented his
State and the South with great power. His speeches are masterpieces in
thought and eloquence. He is an honorary member of the Maryland Histori-
cal Society and member of the National Education Association ; author of
the "Life of Wm. Hooper," and "A Brief History of North Carolina."

Class of ^QJ,
IT IS with mingled pleasure and pain that the Class of Ninety-seven comes
for the last time before the public as an integral part of the University.
We are all, of course, pleased with the idea of receiving our bachelor's
degrees, the consummation of hopes that have sustained us during four years
of hard study, but we are also pleased when we think that for most of us at
least, our college days are o'er.
We have indeed had many happy moments ' ' 'Neath the oaks of our old
Chapel Hill," thrice dear to us who so soon must leave them, and we trust
that we have made good use of the time given us for the development of
intellect, of character, and of manhood.
Let us hope that the many happy ties of friendship and learning formed
here may not be forgotten, but may last ever cherished, ever green and ever
looked upon as among the greatest blessings bestowed upon us.
And now for the last time we greet our grand old Alma Mater with all
the love and affection of appreciative men rising up in our hearts ; and as
the curtain falls on our college career, we renew our pledges to rally around
the " White and Blue " in fair days and foul, in the chilling winter of trouble
and disappointment, and the balmy summer air of peace and prosperity.

r>istory of ^p8*
To BEGIN a history of the "boys of Ninety-eight " at their entrance into
College would be unfair to them ; for since our childhood days at the
different preparatory schools, both in the schoolroom and on the
athletic field, have we cheerfully and manfully tried to do our duty, and right
often have we come out victorious.
Realizing thus early that man must fight to win, when first we entered
College we " put our shoulders to the wheel, " and we defy anyone to show
a more enviable record. We have experienced some defeats, it is true ; but
from them we learned valuable lessons. Many victories have been ours.
All such serve to inspire us and to urge us to yet higher achievements.
The number of boys who entered Ninety-eight's ranks was large com-
pared with former classes, numbering nearly no. A good number have
dropped out, but even now we have enough to graduate a larger number
than in previous years.
Ninety-eight has furnished good men for 'Varsity Football and Baseball
Teams, such as Collier, Slocumb, Carson, Seagle, Busbee, and many others.
For the Glee Club we have to show Lake, Gudger, Dey, Pfohl, Kearny,
Askew, etc.
But the ambitions and aspirations of the " boys of Ninety-eight " already
extend far beyond our College walls. Some of us will be lawyers, some
doctors, some preachers, some teachers, and some business men. Whatever
be our calling in life, we shall all strive to do our duty boldly, freely ; ever
holding dear the associations we formed when together ; and endeavor with
increasing zeal to lead in professional life as we have on a smaller scale in our
College life, having before us, to lure us on, the motto of Ninety- eight,
" Semper idem, nunqtiam non parati.''

Ristory of *gg.
IT IS a great privilege to write the history of Ninety-nine, the largest class
that has ever entered the University, but it is difficult to relate in a limited
space its many achievements.
At an early date we bade defiance to the Sophomores, and when the
time for our election approached we were not frightened by cries on the
campus of" Fresh Election," but fearlessly announced the forthcoming event
on the bulletin-board, and accomplished our purpose in spite of the furious
onslaughts of the enemy.
Washington's Birthday will always be remembered by the boys of
Ninety-nine with peculiar pleasure, on account of the variety of medals
received, from the fourth degree fool's medal down. For a year we have
worn them with credit, but soon we turn them over to more deserving subjects.
Although as Freshmen, we even so much as dared to black upper class-
men, yet upon becoming Sophomores we denounced the practice and declared
the sentiment of the Class to be against hazing in any form. In consequence
of this anti-hazing spirit, the present Freshmen are the most cheeky and ver
dant that the University has ever seen.
We entered the Football contest for Class championship last season, and
though we did not win first place, yet we have many reasons to believe that
we shall head the list next year.
Our Class maintains a high standing in the class-room, furnishes fine
material for both gridiron and diamond, and is well represented on the Glee
and Mandolin Clubs.
Though we are justly proud of past achievements we are unwilling to be
judged by the past alone, for that would sink into insignificance upon the
contemplation of the friendly future which stretches out before us.
Soon our happy hours with Conies and with Second English will be over.
Commencement is fast approaching, when we shall be fully repaid in pleasure
for the arduous duties of the Sophomore Year.
After spending a pleasant Summer, widely scattered throughout the State,
we shall again collect " 'Neath the Oaks of our Old Chapel Hill" to launch
out boldly our individual canoes on the turbulent sea of Psychology.

Ristory of ipoo.
^\ S THE year has slowly rolled by with its many pleasures and trials, it is
r\ the duty of some one to tell the history of Nineteen Hundred, and
although our record here is comparatively short, the historian takes
pleasure in relating it, and in naming the achievements we have attained.
In September of 1896 we came in large numbers as knowledge-seekers
to the University, and since that time we have made a marked improvement,
and proven ourselves worthy of being the first graduating class of the Twen-
tieth century.
In athletics, our Class holds an important position. We have furnished
both the Football and Baseball Teams with several good players, and still
have a goodly number of promising candidates for later years. Exclusive of
the men we have furnished for the 'Varsity Football Team, we organized a
splendid Class team, and came out second in the inter-class contests, defeating
our old enemies, the Sophomores.
About this time the annual Glee and Mandolin Clubs were organized,
and again we proved our importance by giving to them some of the best
material they have ever had. It is perhaps not too much to say that the
success of the clubs during the past season was due in no small measure to
the men we furnished.
We have clone nothing that we are ashamed of, but at all times have
borne the burdens that have been imposed upon us, and now as we are about
to enter into a higher class may we keep our record as pure and clean as it
has been during our Freshman year.

'^hc Musical 0'*3anizations.
ALTHOUGH musical entertainments had been given now and then by
crowds of students at the U. N. C. for a long while, it was not until
the Fall of 1891 that any regularly organized and well trained club
appeared on the scene. At this time Prof Karl P. Harrington, himself an
enthusiastic musician, recognizing the fact that there was some vocal talent in
College, consented to act as musical director, and as a result the first Glee
Club was organized. T. M. Lee was chosen leader, and Howard E. Rond-
thaler, business manager. By hard and steady practice the Club was enabled,
on January 22, 1892, to give its first concert. This was in the University
Chapel, but such was the success of the Club at home, that quite an extensive
tour ot the State was soon taken. By a combination of happy circumstances
these concerts became at once popular, and the fame of this first Glee Club
has hardly been surpassed by any of its successors.
But one has only to compare the first program with some of those since
rendered to see that there has been a steady growth, both in the quality and
originality of the work done. Instead of " Ching-a-Ling '" and "Johnny
Schmoker,'' we find in the second year such selections as Liszt's " Weimer
People's Song," Abt's "Good Night, Beloved," etc. This improvement in
the nature of the selections has continued until, at present, only a high grade
of music is used. At various times the Club has been fortunate enough to
secure original productions from the pen of Prof. Harrington. The "Cradle
Song," now known throughout the whole country, and " Peter, the Pumpkin
Eater," were first sung by the L^. N. C. Glee Club. Other compositions by
home talent have appeared, among which may be mentioned the " Song of
the A. B.," written by Mr. E. P. Williard, and set to music by Prof Har-
rington.
The need of instrumental music had, however, been felt from the first,
and, hence, the advent in 1895 of the Mandolin Club, under the leadership
of Mr. L. M. Bristol, was welcomed with joy. A Banjo Club was organized
the same year, with Mr. H. S. Lake as leader. Thus the Glee Club, by
having only a portion of the program to prepare, could do its part better,
while at the same time greater variety and interest were given to the concerts,
(iraziani's " Nuit d'Amour, " and the "Weber Mazurka" will serve to
indicate the character of the selections rendered by the Mandolin and Banjo
Clubs. The former leaders of the Glee Club were T. M. Lee, Hunter L.
Harris, E. P. Williard, and Chas. Roberson : of the Mandolin Club, L. M.
Bristol and C. R. Dey.

THE ATHLETIC life of the University is of comparatively recent incep-
tion, but its development has been rapid and satisfactory. The year
1876 marked the first attempt at organized athletic effort, when the
Athletic Association was established, with Mr. Julian M. Baker, of Tarboro,
as its first president. Our first gymnasium, now occupied by The Commons,
was built in 1885 by the Alumni, chiefly, however, through the kindness of
Dr. R. H. Lewis, of Raleigh. Previous to this time, gymnastic exercises,
consisting of clubs, bells, rings and horizontal bars, were engaged in, but
they were given in the open air and were necessarily of a very desultory
character.
Baseball, fifteen years ago, was a new thing here. Certainly representa-
tive teams were not thought of, and this sport lacked the stimulus always
imparted by inter-collegiate games. The first baseball contest was played
with Bingham's School about ten years ago, and notwithstanding the fact
that our opponents were victorius, the impetus was given which was to cul-
minate in our Southern championship team of last Spring.
Football had a subsequent origin. The initiative in this direction was
taken by the Sophomore Class team of the University and a similar team
from Wake Forest. As in baseball, the first game was lost, and Captain
Bragow had the misfortune to get a leg broken, this being the only serious
accident that has ever occurred in connection with our athletics. The mod-
ern game of football was finally introduced in this State, and Mr. Cowan, of
Princeton, was secured as our first coach. The outlook was indeed promis-
ing, and it seemed as though we had secured a strong foothold on the grid-
iron, but in 1889 the Faculty restricted the game to the home grounds, and
the Trustees went further, and suppressed it altogether. As might have
been predicted, a period of athletic inertness followed as a result of this
unwise legislation. In 1890, however, a new champion of athletics appeared
in the person of Prof. H. H. Williams, who, with the assistance of such mem-
bers of the student body as Geo. Graham and others, induced the Faculty
and Trustees to reconsider their former decisions and permit the game
142
under Faculty supervision. The present Advisory Committee was inaugu-
rated with Prof. Williams as the Faculty member. The latter recently gave
way to Dr. F. P. Yenable, the value of whose services cannot be over-
estimated.
In the Spring of iSgr, Mr. Graves, of Yale, was secured as coach, but
no inter-collegiate games were played that season. Football was not then,
as now, confined to the Fall term. The baseball nine of this season was
captained by Perrin Busbee. Trinity was easily defeated, but the first game
ever played with our Virginia rivals was lost. In the Fall, our first football
eleven was sent out and met defeat at the hands of Trinity, who at that
time held the championship of the South.
In 1892 our teams made much better records in both games. The base-
ball squad, led by R. H. Johnson, was victorious in one of the Virginia con-
tests, while in the Fall "the great eleven of '92," of which Mike Hoke was
the intrepid captain, was developed. This team lost only the championship
game with Virginia, but was victorious in a subsequent exhibition game
with our rivals, which took place in Atlanta.
The year of 1893 was not so encouraging. In baseball we won from
Vermont, one of the strongest college teams, but performed the customary
losing act when we stood up before Virginia. The football season of the year
opened with bright "prospects, but closed very disastrously. Barnard was
the captain, and the games with Virginia, V. M. I. and Trinity were lost.
In this season we had the satisfaction of being the first Southern college team
to appear on a northern gridiron, losing, however, to Lehigh by a handsome
score.
The following year witnessed a slight advancement. The baseball nine,
captained by Roberson, divided honors with Virginia, and made a creditable
showing in the encounter with Yale. Again football stock was quoted as
unsteady and generally gloomy. Dr. Baskerville yielded to the call of his
fellow-students and consented to captain the team. The regular game with
Virginia was lost by a heavy score, but material was developed which was to
make the successful team of 1895.
The baseball team of 1S95 was handicapped in its Virginia game on
account of the adoption of new rules, which excluded Oldham and Stephens.
The Fall, however, witnessed our red letter football season. Gregory was
captain, and Trenchard coach. Gregory, Merritt, Wright, Baird, Hurley,
Collier, White, Whitaker, Moore, Stephens, and Butler, composed the team,
which defeated everything in the South, except Virginia, and this game was
properly ours, according to the Virginians' own statements.
143
In the Spring of 1896, the baseball team, with Stanly as captain, made
a great record, and added very materially to our athletic reputation. Not
content with winning from Virginia, this team defeated all the prominent
Southern nines, also Yale and Lehigh, at the same time scoring on Princeton.
The football team of this year was another failure. Captain Wright labored
against heavy odds, and the record is against us.
In tennis we have been uniformly successful. In 1894 Messrs. Bryson
and Bridges defeated Virginia and Richmond College, and made an excellent
showing against Yale and Princeton in the Inter-Collegiate meet at New
Haven.
Golf was inaugurated last year, and a flourishing club exists. Track
athletics is receiving attention just now. Through the munificence of Mr.
Lake, of New York, a track has been built, and a team has been in training
this past Spring.
Improvements have recently been made in our gymnasium work. About
two years ago the apparatus was placed in the Memorial Hall, which is more
commodious than the old one. Improved apparatus is being constant y
added, and Mr. Mechling gives to the work his unceasing attention. Gym-
nasium contests are held at stated intervals, and much interest is manifested
in them.
This imperfect account of the LIniversity in athletics reveals this fact, that
in the past we have constantly labored against great odds, and almost unsur-
mountable difficulties, and that with these removed, as they bid fair to be,
the future will possess no record for which we may not strive, no success
which we may not attain.

Cbc "Varsity VcU.
Oh, the boatman's song, on the waters blue.
As he rows along, may be music true ;
But like ocean rough, in its rythmic swell
'Gainst a rocky bluff, is the 'Varsity yell, —
" Rough ! Tough !
We are the stuff!
We play football,
Never get enough ! "
Bright nights in June, when dancing feet
Recall the tune of waltzes sweet ;
But in review your echoes swell
More memories true — old 'Varsity yell, —
"Rah! Rah! Rah!
White and blue !
Vive la ! vive la !
N. C. U.!"
Though merry the sounds of the hunter's horn,
Or cry of the hounds on a irosty morn,
The merriest lay that ever yet fell
Is n't half as gay as the 'Varsity yell, —
' ' Yackity yack !
Hooray ! Hooray !
Car-o-li-na
'Var-si-ty ! "
Now Wagner may be quite the thing.
And dollars pay Calv^ to sing ;
But dear to us, while not so swell,
The cute little "cuss " in the 'Varsity yell, —
" Hippity huss !
Hippily huss !
What in the h— 1
Is the matter with us?"
The song of a lass is a joyous sound,
The clink of a glass, as the healths go 'round ;
But leaving them far, there 's a joyous spell
Which nothing can mar. in the 'Varsity yell, —
" Hackie ! Hackie ! Hackie !
Sis ! Boom ! Bah !
Carolina ! Carolina !
145 Rah! Rah! Rah!"

'CJ^c OW Btu« Sweater.
Let others sing of classic halls,
Or oaks of Chapel Hill ;
The beauty of its campus fair
May their fond mem'ries fill ;
But though 'tis faded, old and worn.
To me there's nothing better
Than tender thoughts that fondly cling
Around the old blue sweater.
Ah, stately are the caps and gowns
In which collegians show
The dignity of Learning's might.
The power it is " to know ; "
But stirring to the pulse of life
Are young limbs free from fetter,
The courage firm, the muscles strong.
Beneath the old blue sweater.
The heroes of the days of old
May shine in song and story.
As poets, or as troubadours.
Or warriors grim and gory ;
But modern girls like modern knights, —
And what girl can forget her
First glimpse of the White and Blue
Pinned on the old blue sweater ?
Ah, boys ! who 'neath the heat of May
Or frosts of Autumn wore it, —
In thick of game, or rush of play,
How gallantly you bore it I
And when, 'mid plaudits wild, we won,
Old Time, I am your debtor
For joys as keen as e'er were known
By boy in a blue sweater.
Not all Ambition's wildest hopes
For which the man has striven.
Nor all success of after years.
Have such rare rapture given.
To see our " back " the goal posts pass,
On earth there's nothing better !
' ' A glorious run ! We win at last !
Hurrah for the old blue sweater ! "

THERE was a comical look of perplexity on Nellie Raymond's fair face
as she stood before the dainty little table, holding a note in either
hand and glancing from one to the other and then to the table where
in odorous beauty lay two boxes of magnificent roses, the one filled with
blossoms of the deepest crimson, and not a fleck of color on the snowy petals
of the others.
"How in the world am I to know from whom either of these boxes
comes? I don't see why they couldn't inclose their cards instead of writing
these provoking little notes that don't tell one anything," and again she
gazed on the "provoking little notes" as if in them lay the solution of the
mystery, but very evidently gaining therefrom but
small consolation.
" Was ever anything so provoking? Almost ex-
actly alike ! I did promise them an answer to-night,
and I want to wear roses, too, but — oh, it's bother-
some ! " with a little stamp of the foot, "and I can't
see either of them before to-night to try and find out
what sort each one sent, and I want to wear his roses,
but don't know which they are ! "
"Hello, Nell !" said a gay young voice behind
her. "What's the matter now? You lucky girl.
Two big boxes of roses to one little girl, and yet you
seem to be tearing your hair over something and get-
ting ready to do the Niobe act, if you don't change
your mind and laugh instead."
" Oh, Harry, I'm so glad to see you. I'm in such
a fix, and you must help me out, but I can't tell you
anything about it.' '
"Oh, of course I'm a genius at other people's
troubles. In a fix that you can't tell me about, and I
must help you ! What is it all about, anyway ? "
" Those,' ' she answered, nodding toward the roses.
"Those. Well, you are funny. I don't see anything there to cause
you trouble, unless some of your numerous ' danglers ' have been burglarizing
168
a florist's, and they have ' gotten ' you for receiving stolen goods. Is that it ? "
" Don't joke, Harry, for I am in a fix really and truly, and something
terrible will happen if I don't get out of it before to-night. Look here,"
showing him the two envelopes, " do you know who wrote these ? "
"No, but if I couldn't write any better than either of them, I'd use a
typewriter."
"You're perfectly horrid. I don't see the good of having a brother
unless he knows things and can do things for people."
' ' Yes, none of us are very much good at mind reading, — a woman's mind
particularly. You've told me nothing but that you are in a scrape about
those roses, and since you sat down on me so promptly when I tried to
guess, I don't see how you can expect me to do very much."
" But, Harry, I can't tell you or any one anything about it."
"Well, I certainly can't help you, then, unless you tell me what you
w^ant me to do."
" Here, then," desperately, giving him the two notes, " and then don't
you say a word," and out of the room flew Miss Nell with cheeks vieing in
color with the roses that were the cause of all the trouble, and two pink little
palms over her ears to shut out the peals of laughter that she was sure would
follow her.
" Yon said you would tell me 7ny fate at the ball to-night. Will you not
7C'ear my roses there if there is any hope for me ?
' ' Yours devotedly,
'^fackr
And the second :
" Will you not zvcar my roses to the ball to-night if the anszver you are to
give me is the one I tvish f Yours as ahvays,
" fack.''
read Harry aloud. " But I don't see yet what the matter is," he said, when
at length his sister had come back.
"Oh, can't you see? They got mixed. I was out calling when they
came, and I don't know what sort either of them sent, and I don't know
how to find out."
"You little flirt ! So that's the trouble. And which Jack is it ? It's cer-
tainly a good one on you," and off he went into peals of uproarious mirth,
in which, despite herself, Miss Nell was compelled to join.
" Help you out? Well, I guess not. You got yourself in it, and now
you must get yourself out. You can't expect me to help some fellow to
make love to my own sister, can you ? "
169
" Harry, you are mean, and I am not going to speak to you any more,"
and she didn't — for at least thirty seconds — then in a pleading tone :
" Harry, p/ease tell me what to do. Never mind, though ; I know, but you
must get me some more roses."
The glorious October moon is flooding the landscape with
its silver glamour, and the grounds, so beautiful by day with
their semi-tropical luxuriance of foliage, seem almost like fairy-
land, and the shimmer of the moonlight on a white wrap might
well be taken for the sheen of the fairy wings. Within, the ball
is at its height, the brilliant lights, the passionate throb of the
music, the air heavy with the langourous odor of flowers, the
flash of bright jewels and the flash of brighter eyes, the gleam
of snowy shoulders and the sound of merry young voices — all
are indeed suited for the fairies' court. Through it all Nellie
Raymond, gowned all in pale pink, a pink rose in her golden
hair, more on her corsage, others in her hands, her proud head
thrown back, her eyes sparkling with enjoyment, moves, a very
queen, ruling all men by the divine right of beauty. The
women only are rebellious of her sway. Petted, flattered,
complimented as she is, yet over all her enjoyment there is a
little cloud rising — a little cloud no larger than the young fellow over there in
the door, silent in the midst of the merry throng, for he has not been near
her all the evening nor scarcely looked at her since the first swift glance, the
look for his roses, the roses that she had not worn. But which roses did he
look for? If she only knew.
The beautiful strains of the " Waltz King's " most exquisite waltzes
were filling the rooms as, pleading a prior engagement, she stepped through
one of the large open windows out on to the veranda, where Jack Carleton —
the other Jack — found her.
"Isn't this our dance. Miss Raymond? I've been hunting for you
everywhere. No, suppose we don't go in, please, there's such a crowd, and
I want you to answer that question that you were to answer for me to-night,
but,'' sadly, "I suppose I'm answered already, for you haven't worn my
roses."
"And I have n't even thanked you for them. So ungrateful of me, too,
to forget it when they were such beauties, just the very prettiest I have seen
this season, and I do thank you for them very much."
But he was not to be put off" so. " Nell, sweetheart," he said, "listen.
You know that I love you, that I have loved you ever since you were a little
170
thing', and that I have never cared for anyone else. Can't you tell me that
you care for me just a little ? I have loved you so long — will you not tell me
that you love me, too ? ' '
"Oh, Jack, I'm so sorry," and there was a break in the sweet voice,
" so sorry. I like you ever so much, and think that you are the best friend
I ever had, but I don't care for you that way. I almost wish I could, but I
can't. But, Jack," seeing the look of pain on his face, "can't we still be
friends? Need this make any difference in that ? "
"I ask you for the whole loaf and you only offer me a poor little half,"
he laughed almost roughly. "Forgive me, I didn't mean that. I didn't
know what I was saying. Don't worry, it will be all right after a while.
I can't realize it now, it's such a blow, for I had been hoping so long
and now I have nothing left, not even" — he broke off abruptly as some
one came down the veranda toward them.
"Miss Raymond, your mother asked me to bring you this wrap ; she
fears it is too cool here without it. You don't know what you are missing by
staying out here, the music is superb. There, it is starting again now, and
I must find my partner," and without waiting for any reply he darted off.
" Shall we go in? " Carleton asked. " Some of your partners will be
looking for you. This is to be our good-bye," he added ; "I am going to
Central America to-morrow. A friend wants me to go out therewith him.
Good-bye ! " He seized her hand, pressed it for a moment between his own,
carried it hastily to his lips, and he was gone.
She stepped inside again, but her evening was spoiled now. Big-hearted,
handsome Jack Carleton gone, and the one she had hoped to see had not
been near her the whole evening. Thoroughly miserable, she sought her
mother : " Mother, I'm so tired ; suppose we go home." And that night
she sobbed herself to sleep and dreamed that she was the Princess Elizabeth
and that the "Wars of the Roses" were being fought again, over her. In
the morning she awoke, a very woe-begone picture of her usual bright self
"Why didn't he let me tell him why I didn't wear his roses? And he
didn't come near me the whole evening ? Perhaps he does n't care, but he told
me he did. Well, I don't care either, then. Perhaps he will come to-day,
though.'' And all that day she listened wistfully at every ring of the bell
for his voice and step in the hall, and yet, when he did come, late in the
afternoon, it was a very cold and haughty little maiden who greeted him,
very different from the bright, winsome one he knew, and one who resolutely
led the conversation into such impersonal channels as would give him no
opportunity to say what he so much wished to say, and, strangest of all,
171
what she so much wanted to hear, but she could not keep it up long, — the
ball of the evening before was a topic of too much importance to them both
to be so utterly disregarded, and soon he saw his opportunity.
" I had hoped so much that you would wear my
roses there," he said. "Was I right in thinking that
you meant that to be my answer? I can't take it that
way, though I thought I could, and I must hear you
tell me with your own lips that there is no hope for me
before I can realize it. Which is it to be, Nellie?" he
jjleaded, trying in vain to catch a glimpse of the down-
cast eyes, "yes or no?" Then the eyes were raised
to his for one fleeting moment, — and he knew.
A few minutes later, a lovely face, all suffused with
blushes now, was lifted toward his own and a soft voice
murmured : " But, Jack, what color were those roses?"
Then she told him the whole story, just as I have told
it to you.

castles in the H^^«
There is a time in youth's sweet prime
When Hfe is bright and fair,
And when we all, both great and small.
Build "castles in the air."
Though thej were fine, in olden time —
The chateaux in far Spain—
We know too well how soon they fell,
And we were flat again.
When first we quaff the joyous draught
Of love, we never think
Our girl so sweet has Western feet.
And lacketh sore the " chink " ;
When years have sped, and love has fled,
And, with experience crusted,
We're struck so on some other one.
We know that castle busted.
The Freshman young, with boasting tongue,
E'er Sophs have worked their will.
His locks are long, and gay his song,
He thinks he owns the " Hill " ;
But gone his cheek, blacked a I'Afrique,
When Sophs have clipped his hair ;
Lost is his dash, and with a crash,
His castle 's in the air.
A dancer bright, with pockets light.
And many a bill that weighed.
He thought to woo Dame Pleasure, too.
So " German Club " fees paid ;
With many a " stag " his spirits flag.
In " leads " he had no share ;
He froze till "blue," the german through,—
His castle 's in the air.
The man who toils o'er midnight oils.
And hopes to make a " one,"
May think that brain will always gain.
And trusts to work well done ;
For Harrington he digs with force,
Great is his sorrow there :
None e'er got two — most men he threw —
That castle 's in the air.
The beauty, too, in white and blue.
And feet that never lag.
Who'll pose and sigh, and do or die.
To wear one little " rag " ;
Some other girl the " rags " unfurl,
In them she has no share ;
Gone is her style, and for a while
Her castle 's in the air.

6^xtract9 from a jfunior's private Correspondence.
/T^^J^^
Chapel Hill, January 7, 1897.
Dear Ma :
Although I am not in a psychological condition to write
to-night, yet I will keep my promise to send you my grades.
On psychology I made i ; on all the others except math
I flunked (beg your pardon ; that's the college slang for "didn't
pass "). On math I made 4 — the same old grade. I never could
understand, till I took psychology, why I couldn't learn to appre-
ciate mathematical processes. But Prof. Williams has made it
perfectly plain to me. It is, as I see now, as he says,
that there is no reasoning in it, but just a continual
repetition of 2 and 2 make 4. (Certainly that's the
way it has gone with my marks for three years ; by
pyschological processes a man more commonly gets a 5. )
Then, besides, math, pure or applied, has to do solely with the crass
external \sox\<\ (that word "crass," you know, is from Emerson, the fellow
who wrote "A Yellow Aster," and "The Earl's Atonement"). But in
psychology we deal in snb/ective individuality, and the Roman Catholic
church, blooded stock farms, and the "flower in the crannied wall."
I tell you, Ma, I have decided to drop math (I w^ould drop the others
if they hadn't already dropped me), and make a specialty of psychology.
I know you will approve of my decision ; for psychology is the most relig-
ious study in college. Prof. Williams lectures now and then on " Philosophy
and Life — 'Specially Philosophy," and talks real pious to us lots of times.
Then he gets reports from us every week of the logical and psychological
errors in the sermons we heard the Sunday before. You see, he does this
to encourage church attendance.
I tell you, I hope there will be psychology in heaven, though I can't
help wondering who will be over there to teach it, and I believe we zvill have
it over there ; psychology means the doctrine oi souls, you know. Of course,
though, some of the boys are heathenish enough to swear that if there is any
psychology in heaven, they hope it will be elective.
^ ^ '^ '^
And then the course in psychology being so logical, is so easy. If it
wasn't for having to study math all the hour on psychology class, I would
enjoy that hour immensely. There is a fellow here who is wonderfully deep
1T4
and original ; and so he and Prof. Williams spend the hour in debate about
the points on which they can't agree ; and so the rest of us just listen — or
sleep.
Then on examination it's perfectly easy to make i, though very few-
make it, simply because they try to answer Prof, Williams' questions. Now,
I learned long ago better sense than that ; and, besides, the Seniors put me
on to it. Prof. Williams, you know, prides himself on originality, both for
himself and his class. He urges every man to think for himself, and he has
such a tender conscience himself that he always seems in mortal terror for
fear some of us may believe somethinghehastold us. So just before examina-
tion I get a volume of Comte or Schopenhauer out of the Library (as Prof.
Williams doesn't believe a word either of these authors says, I think it is
original for me to disagree with him and agree with them). Then I hunt up
a few long quotations from these books and memorize them. (For this
Schopenhauer is best ; Comte' s sentences are all too short and simple ; they
are not long enough to strike one as very original. ) Then on examination
I modify some of these quotations slightly (it would be dishonest, you know,
to put every word just the same) and put them down as answers to some of
the questions — it doesn't make much difference which ; Prof. Williams justly
gives me credit for thinking for myself, and a i.
How sorry I do feel for the poor fools who persist in trying to answer all
questions in plain English. Plain English may suit a man like Webb — they
say he likes it very plain ; but, of course, it won't go with a man like Prof.
Williams.
■>i. i^ -^f. ~>f.
I tell you. Ma, a great change is coming over me in my way of looking
at life and its majestic problems and overpowering truths. No boy with any
brains at all can listen to Prof. Williams' lectures on class and his impressive
addresses on "Philosophy and Life — 'Specially Philosophy," without losing
all interest in the nonsense and frivolity of society (I spell it with a little let-
ter now, you see). For instance, when for courtesy's sake we can't decline
to go to a reception, we psychology students — I mean, of course, the ones
who love it — don't waste our time in the nonsense of the hour, but we follow
Prof. Williams' example and get off in a corner and silently watch the faces
of that thoughtless throng. (And, of course, now and then we go over to
his corner and compare notes with him — he allows us to do that.) I tell you
it's deepening.
;;< * ^ *
But time fails me to tell you of half the advantages of this delightful
course. Suffice it to say, as in the beginning, that I shall make it my spe-
cialty ; all the more, since it is so much easier to master than math, for
175
instance, and so saves valuable time. I think I will know all about it by
June, at the present rate.
Tell Pa that I am sorry I can't make a specialty of math as he had
hoped. But if he had ever studied subjective individuality , he would know
that great minds do not run in the same channel. I will be the pride of
the family in psychology as he is in math.
Lovingly yours,
Jim.

TO THE STUDENTS.
Psychology teaches us that the epithelium cells of the
human stomach are all hollow, and need to be filled with
life-giving nutriment. Nothing performs this function so
well as cow's milk.
I will be glad to furnish milk in any quantities to my
fellow-sufferers at moderate (?) prices.
Yours to serve,

five Minutes of football.
IT IS a cold November day. The clouds hang low, in grey grimncss.
There is an air of somber seriousness about them, and the wind, coming
in fitful gusts, intensifies this impression.
It is a football field. The grand stand, beribboned and decked with inter-
twined colors, with hosts of white-faced inhabitants, whose flags and ribbons
make gay its roomy interior ; the big, open stands that stretch around the
field, likewise caparisoned and filled with excited masculinity — college
students, alumni, business men, street gamins — form a sharp contrast to the
gloom of the day.
At intervals of thirty seconds for the last hour and a half these stands
have been bursting into volcanic eruptions of sound and waving color, as one
or the other of the two teams that are struggling out in the open space in
front has had the advantage. Now the cheers subside, and for a moment
the wind can be heard as it whistles around the corner of the grand stand.
The twenty-two young men in canvas are jumping to their positions again.
All eyes, all thought of those present are upon them.
A game of football, between rival colleges, differs from a battle only in
the fact that there are fewer casualties. The sentiment is the same. For the
time being — to the players, to the partisan spectators— the issues at stake are
as great. The same elements of character go to make a successful ball
player as a successful soldier. Loyalty and patriotism are at the root of the
worthiness of either. For the soldier, for the ball player, love of country,
devotion to principle, sacrifice of self, are absolutely essential. In battle, the
soldier, without spur of individual hate or enmity, must fight with all his
strength against those who antagonise the things he loves. He must be part
of a fighting machine, and do his part and face emergencies without ques-
tion. So it is with the ball player.
For an hour these two little picked armies have struggled and clashed
together out there on the frozen, white-marked field. It has been a glorious
contest — fast and fierce and unrelenting. Once the ball has been forced over
the last one of those white lines, and one set of partisans has gone into ten
minutes of delirium over their advantage. The first and the greater part of
the second half have gone. The score is four to nothing, but those with the
odds against them are fighting desperately. They are gaining slowly but
surely. Those with them measure the distance to the goal-line and groan at
its extent ; those other partisans measure it too, and think fearfiilly what a
short distance it is.
I So
Suddenly the stillness is rent with a roar. It is like an explosion in its
brief intensity ; like the thunder of a cannon, in the lull that follows
ominously in the instant's wait while the gunners ram in another charge and
peer out the enemy through the low-hanging smoke. Flags flutter spon-
taneously with the outburst of sound. Hats bob wildly against the back-
ground of the sky. Then all is still. You can hear the heavy breathings of
the crowd, bent over, with its eyes agleam with the battle fever. You hear
the rapid pulsating thump, thump, thump of the players running over
the frozen ground.
The cause of the outbreak is one of those rarely glittering successes in
a game. The experts down on the side-lines will tell in their detailed accounts
just how it was done. The people packed in the stands don't know and don't
care. What they see is a little mass of men in striped jerseys that seems to
bore its way through opposing forces. There is a swaying, twisting, grinding
struggle for a moment. Then three men emerge from the crush. Two of
them, fierce as stampeded buftalo, with their dirt-grimed faces and shaggy
hair, thunder along in front of the third. This latter one looks small as he
scurries along behind his blockers, his head tucked low down, his arm close
around the precious ball. Two players spring at him savagely. One of them
strikes the great blocker in front and falls prostrate on his face. The other
is at the stocky carrier of the ball like a tiger. A hand decends upon his
head, and an arm like willowy steel gives him a mighty shove. His impetus
carries him down. He sprang an instant too soon. He has missed.
Now the three men are clear, running in plain sight in the open. Now
comes the roar, hushed, because all eyes are on Carolina's full-back. He is
the one obstacle between that on-rushing trio and the goal-line. The goal-
line reached and the game is lost. Upon him careen the three — the little
man of springy steel behind his giant protectors — the fleet-footed one, with
legs like engine pistons, and will like a cyclone. Will he, can he stand the
shock ?
The full-back realizes his responsibility in a general sort of way. He
knows that he stands between defeat and victory ; that on him depends the
superiority of two rival colleges for a year at least. Did he have time, as he
rushes along, he would think of the stands packed with his college mates,
biting their nails in nervous ecstacy. He would think of the crowd of
students hanging around the telegraph office in the college town in anxious
expectancy. He would think of the hundreds of alumni scattered through
his State, looking up often from their work and pausing to think of ' ' the
boys," and how their battle is waging. He would think, perhaps, of how
some far-away girl, with white and blue ribbon on, is thinking of and fearing
for his safety in womanly timidity, and of how she will skim the accounts of the
game till she comes to those plays in which he figures. He would think, in
short, how everything — life itself, for the moment — depends on the result ;
the honor of his college, the months of training, of anxious care and worry.
But he has no time to think, save generally. They are almost face to
face. They are upon him ! The full-back's shoulders droop, and his head
hangs low forward, like a bull-dog's. His legs seem to brace for the shock.
His face, as one catches a glimpse of it, is a study. In its lines you can read
an agony of suspense, hardened with grim determination. The blood on the
jacket, the swollen lips, the bandage 'round the head, lend an air of weird
desperation.
He rarely misses a tackle, but now the crowd is anxiously silent. It is
the crucial test. Dreadful fear, exultant hope, run through the opposite stands.
Then comes the crash ! The full-back has dived headforemost through
the mass. The two big blockers stagger with the collision and topple over
his bent form. His arms seek that fierce little one with the ball, who strikes
out viciously with his hand.
But now a set of steel muscles closes around those oak-like legs. The
roar thunders out again ! There is a squirming knot of four players on the
ground. The rush has been stopped !
Now the stands awake again. Flags and hats fly once more ; canes with
bright colors upon them wave enthusiastically ; men jump up and down, their
arms swaying like Jacks-in-the-box. Both sides are cheering — the one for the
brilliant gain, the other for the cool excellence of the man who filled the
breach. The sound comes in a steady roar ; it sinks and seems to draw its
breath, to peal forth once more in tumultuous triumph.
Through all this sounds the shrill whistle of the referee, calling to the
battle. The mass of players untwists itself The two big men and the little
one with the ball emerge ; the other lies prostrate. A knot of players gather
'round ; substitutes in sweaters hasten with water-buckets ; a doctor kneels
at his side.
Again the crowd is in anxious suspense, but presently there is a move-
ment among the group of players. Three substitutes pick up the form and
start across the field. Another strips off his sweater at the captain's com-
mand. His face is alight with a great happiness, — he can do his part !
The stands on which his friends sit send up a cheer as the disabled
player is borne past. He raises his head and waves a hand in response.
Then a generous shout comes from all sides ; it is appreciation of an act that
was noble because it was a duty. Any one of these twenty-two would have
done the same.
But the day is saved !

Of all the fair maids "neath Southern sun,
The pretty Normal girl's the one
To whom the 'Varsity boys e'er run
With love A. P.,
And oft where every other fails,
The girl who from the Normal hails
Can rule with ease those love-lorn males
From U. N. C.
Would I not for such vacation,
And such normal recreation,
Brave " E. A." and e'en probation
'Till I die?
Would I not endure much woe,
And many studious habits show,
To be allowed once more to go
To N. and I. ?
Although we took the bitter pill.
And had of Normal jilts our fill,
Yet now our trembling hearts are still
All in a whirl.
O Muse, descending from above,
Inspire me now where'er I rove
To loudly sing of how I love
A Normal girl !

Recommendations.
Dr. Thomas Hume, D.D., etc. :
After taking the English courses prescribed by you I find myself, as a result, a mis-
sionary in Central Turkey. The natives pronounce my interpretations of Shakespeare
as good as any they ever heard. In regard to the order in your class room, I will say
that it is no worse than that seen in the recent Armenian riots.
Respectfully,
I. N. Truble.
Prof. K. Pomeroy Harrington, Esq., etc.
Sir : I recently received from my agent a batch of your 2d Latin lectures, which
we induced spies to distribute among the rebels. As a result their homes are desolate,
their forces scattered and many of them plunge into the sea at sight of a piece of paper.
Victoria Signo f You shall not be unrewarded by His Majesty the King.
Gratefully,
Ugioro Wevler,

Mr. a. Rheinstukisky, Director Sandwich Islands Conservatory of Music.
Dear Sir : You could not do better than employ Mr. Avoirdupois Holmes as an
instructor in your celebrated institution. His renditions are quite original, and the wild
and phantasmagoric contortions indulged in by him during his performances will har-
monize perfectly with the cannibal dances of the natives. He would never be recog-
nized as a foreigner. Sincerely yours,

^'Cwas Qvcr 'Chus.
We slowly glided through the dreamy waltz,
Her soft, white hand — which 'twas my hope to gain-
I gently clasped, while two divine brown eyes
Looked slowly up to mine, then down again.
Outside the hall we strolled, until we found
A shadowed corner large enough for two,
And there I told, mid music's swelling sound,
That old, old story which is ever new.
My arms encircled close her dainty form,
Her little head upon my shoulder lay ;
The music and the dance had lost their charm,
All thoughts, except of her, were far away.
But happiness like this can never last,
As I was doomed to very soon discover ;
My room-mate's were the arms that held me fast, —
I waked, my vision gone, when he turned over.
C, '96.
I took up my tablet
To write you a sonnet,
But no thought of mine
Would form in words on it —
A rondeau I next tried
In praise of your bonnet,
But equally luckless
I did abandon it ;
Naught else could I think of
Save just this — "Dog gon' it."

E WAS A FAMILIAR sight on the College campus, was
old Jerry, a bent old negro, with palsied hands, and a little
basket of peanuts, or apples or cherries in their seasons, for
sale to the students, and always with his cheerful greeting
when any one addressed him : —
"Morning, boss man; hope you are well this morn-
ing," and always ready to talk on everything — save one subject only.
" lerry, who burnt the belfry?" never failed to bring about an
indignant turning away and the reply, " Students' bizness is students'
bizness, dat's what it is, an' you hadn't oughter talk like dat," and
the old man would move slowly away, shaking his head and muttering to
himself in indignation that any one should seek to pry into his secret, for
such it was, and one carefully guarded by him through long years.
Years ago, before the wave of civil war had swept over the country,
leaving all the Southland in wreck and ruin after its passage, the old Univer-
sity was the educational center of the Southern States, and here came the
favorite sons of the South to garner knowledge. Incidentally they helped
along the hours as they best might in the sleepy little town by all manner of
pranks on the faculty, the town's people and on each other, the recollections
of which have come down to this day, losing a little of their original amount
of truth, taking on much of the broideries of imagination in the handing
down to the successive generations of wide-eyed young Freshmen, gaining
now, perhaps, for the first time some inkling of the fact that the staid, gray-
haired gentleman, irreverently called "the old man," may have been one of
the gayest of the gay young birds of his college days, and therein finding
vast stores of consolation for misdemeanors, past, present and to come.
In those old days the College bell, the famed of song and story, was not
in its cupola in the " Old South," but was swung in a wooden belfrj' tower,
whence its pealing notes summoned to the eai^ly prayers. Its sweetest music
told that the hours of recitation were past, but withal it was a loved sound
ringing out the hours in its deep, melodious tones. However, irreverent
youth is no respecter of persons, as even " Pres." himself was well aware,
and fun must be had. 'Twas a necessity of existence then, as now. The only
question was what to do, and how to do it without getting caught, for even
in those unprogressive days the faculty had the unpleasant habit of catching
the ringleaders and giving them a bad quarter of an hour in faculty meeting,
and they were dreadful things — those faculty meetings. What to do, then,
187
was the question. Of course, it must be something to create excitement ; it
were no fun else. If it were a mystery, so much the better ; and that there
was a spice of dangerous mischief in it, something that would make "the
faculty ' ' suddenly metamorphose their staid, be-spectacled selves into a
corps of amateur detectives, nothing more could be left for any one to
desire. It was moved, seconded and unanimously carried that something
must be done. But what ? Many plans were proposed, discussed and tabled,
when with bated breath — " Burn the belfry." Some mind had risen to the
great emergency, the plot was in train, and secrecy was the word.
" The witching hour of midnight" has passed, and in that hour when
no restless cock crows, best fitted of all for deeds of darkness — or light — as
this, they meet again, and soon the little red tongues go lapping, licking
about the old timbers, like some serpent tonguing over its victim. There is
a rush and a roar, as the tire, sure now of its prey, darts upward, cutting a
vivid gash in the blackness, shining full in the face of old jerry — young
Jerry then. What means were used to silence him no one knows, but
effectual ones they were, for to his dying day he would never tell who was
concerned in it. The rest of the story if you liked, but that never. " Stu-
dents' bizness is students' bizness."
"I was young den, boss, an' was courtin' one of dese hifalutin', big-
gitty yaller gals dat lived on one of de plantations 'bout three miles from
town, an' I'd been out dere dat night, an" when I was comin' back I heard
somebody projickin' 'round dat belfry, an' I says to myself, ' Dat's some of
dem devilish students up to some meanness or nudder, an' I'm goin' to see.'
An' dey was, too. Dey'd bring a whole lot of chips an' leaves an' trash, an'
put 'em all around an' soak 'em wid oil, an' dey nigh about painted her with
it, an' den dey touched her off; an' de way it do burn was a sight ! I'd seed
what dey was up to, an' was just gwine away, case I knowed dat wan't no
salubrious place for no nigger 'bout den, but dey seed me an' cotch me, an'
when dey lemme go I didn't stay 'round dere no longer ; no sah, an' I
never heard nothin' 'bout dat belfry burnin' till nex dav nother, you be-
lieve me. Man, she suttinly was a fire ! Dese bonfires you 'uns has dese
days aint nothin' to it. De nex day it was jus like you'd stirred up a bee-
gum wid a stick. De president was runnin' about like er ol' hen what
aint got but one chicken an' don't know where dat one is, an' all de res' of
de faculty is mighty nigh as bad, but it don't do no good, for dey never
find out who did it."
" Well, Jerry, who did do it ? It can't hurt any one to tell now ; " — but
" Students' bizness is students' bizness ; dats what it is," would come back
to me indignantly, as the old darkey hobbled off; so now that old Jerry is
gone, "Who burned the belfry ? " like the famous "Who hit Billy Patter-
son? " will go down to posterity one of the unsolved problems.

The fact that it occasionally makes you "tipsy " is due, no doubt, to some constitutional

Thus he worked boldly.
But Williams coldly

It is in truth a cheerful little thing.

Shepherd et ipse.
The green grass grew all around.
Oh, what may man within him hide
Though angel on the outward side.
I am no counterfeit.
More lovely than the monarch of the sky,
In wanton Arethusa's azur'd arms.
Truth is stranger than fiction.
If you wish to be valued make yourself scarce.
Don't put too fine a point to your wit, for fear it
should get blunted.
Every man is as Heaven made him and some-
times a good deal worse.
I know everything except myself.
Affectation of wisdom often prevents us from
becoming wise.
A little folly is desirable in him that will not be
guilty of stupidity.
I never saw a greater monster or miracle in the
world than myself.
There is great ability in knowing how to conceal
one's ability.
If he wait long enough the world will be his
own.
He who gives himself airs of importance ex-
hibits the credentials of impotence.
It is with narrow-souled people as with narrow-
necked bottles — the less they have in them
the more noise they make in pouring it out.
Trust not too much to an enchanting face.
A little mind that loves itself.
The extreme pleasure we take in talking of
ourselves should make us fear that we give
very little to those who listen to us.
There is a pleasure in being mad which none
but mad men know.

Trust not him that seems a saint.
By immoderate laughter you can always distin-
guish the shallow mind.
Sweet bird that shun'st the noise of folly.
" I'm my mamma's dear boy."
" When I wish to conceal my identity I sign my
name. ' '
A simple child that lightly draws its breath.
"A silent bell."
Between a long head of hair and a red sweater
there is ?
A grace beyond the reach of art.
Moon-calf, speak once in thy life, if thou beest
a good moon-calf.
Marriage is a good thing for man in general.
" I need a salting."
Long and lean, lank and thin,
As one of Satan's Cherubim.
Nature has formed strange fellows in her time.
A school-boy freak, unworthy of praise or blame.
But, O ye Gods ! to hear him sing !
Blessed is the man, who, having nothing to say,
abstains from giving us wordy evidence of
the fact.
Fine by defect and delicately weak.
He belongs in the dull catalogue of common
things.
Hear ye not in me the hum of mighty workings ?
Clever men are good, but they are not the best.
I saw and loved.
Nose, nose, nose, nose !
And who gave thee that jolly red nose?
Ah, why should life all labor be ?
Faultily faultless, icily regular, splendidly swell.
He is so good he will pour rose-water on a toad.
My own hope is, a sun will pierce the thickest
cloud earth ever stretched.

Beautiful as sweet, and young as beautiful, and
soft as young-, and gay as soft, and innocent
as gay !
Time elaborately thrown away.
Elegant as simplicity and warm as ecstasy
Who pants for glory finds but short repose.
His wit invites you by his looks to come.
But when you knock it never is at home.
Unblemished let me live,, or die unknown,
Oh, grant me honest fame, or grant me none.
In indolent vacuity of thought.
A little of a muchness.
Oh, that those lips had language.
These are thy charms, sweet village,
Sports like these.
A jay, 'tis a jay indeed.
The man who hails you Tom and Jack,
And proves by thumping on the back.
How he esteems your merit.
Some /a//s are means the happier to rise.
"Just whisper if you get a chance.' '
A weariness to the flesh.
He does well in everything except his books.
It is hard for an empty bag to stand upright.
In stature he is passing tall.
And sparely formed and lean.
One ear it heard, at the other out it went.
" I's wicked, I is. I's mighty wicked, anyhow.
I can't help it."
Stiff in his opinion, always in the wrong.
A creature not too bright and good
For human nature's daily food.
Best collection of college grinds.
The unkindest cut of all.
A short man and a long dinner.

"A pet child has many names."
Of two evils choose the least.
"You are like fig-tree fuel — much smoke and

From children expect childish acts.
As thy days are, so shall thy strength be.

His rugged face betrays no spirit of repose
Some say he has no heart, but I deny it ;
He has a heart, and learns his lessons by it.
Exceeding wise (?), fair-spoken and persuasive.
I'm on very good terms with myself.
" Oh, isn't he a darling — the bould sojer boy ! "
Both his legs are longer than they really ought
to be.
How green you are, and fresh in this old world.
" What's he good for ? "
Vanity of vanities.
The very type of innocence.

Che Song of the H. B.— Continued.
II.
I'll tell them how— a Freshman green— I came to college here
('Twas early in the harvest time, and '89 the year),
And how I looked with pleasure to the coming month of June,
As I walked across the campus to the whistling of a tune. {AH ivhistle.)
III.
I'll tell them how the Sophomores would ring the college bell,
And how they took the clapper out and hid it in the well ;
And how they blacked the Freshmen, and greased the chapel seats,
And cows put in the belfry tower with acrobatic feats !
IV.
I'll tell them of my boarding-house, and how the tough beefsteak
Was tanned and sold again as hide, the finest boots to make.
I'll tell them how the bill of fare was varied every day.
So that we read it forward once, and then the reverse way !
V.
I'll tell them how, as Junior, I broke so many hearts
That Cupid, doubtless, had to buy a new supply of darts.
A Senior, too, I strolled around with dignity and pride,
And for my verdant Freshman days I wished again and sighed.
VI.
But I'm going to be an M.D., or else and LL.B.,
I'm thinking of an A. j\I., perhaps a Ph.D.,
And I'm thankful, as I stand here to-day, a full A.B.,
That the Faculty have not conferred the proud degree, " N.G.'

0"ly a Bow of Ribbon.
Swiftly the twilight deepens,
Long since the sun has set ;
Seated alone, in sadness,
He thinks of the past with regret.
And holds in his hand a token,
A bow of white and blue.
The emblem of so many joys, —
The colors of N. C. U.
CHORUS.
Only a bow of ribbon,
Of ribbon white and blue,
Faded, soiled and crumpled,
A token so true.
Only a bow of ribbon.
Of ribbon white and blue,
The emblem of departed days,
The colors of N. C. U.
Now in the dusky twilight
Appear the by-gone scenes,
He is again at college,
Unconscious of all but his dreams ;
While seeing again his classmates,
His friends so tried and true.
He shares with them the many joys
At dear old N. C. \J. — C/wnis.
Leaving the noble campus,
On the athletic field
He sees the '\'arsity playing.
And never yet known to yield ;
The boys are madly shouting,
Upholding White and Blue,
And he now wears that faded bow
At dear old N. C. U.—Owrns.
Although he's old and feeble,
His end is drawing near,
\\'aking, he still remembers
The college to him so dear ;
Still loving the grand old 'X'arsity,
To whom all praise is due.
He always keeps that faded bow.
The colors of N. C. \]. — Chorus.
206
H Song for Carolina,
All hail, Carolina,
There ne'er was a finer,
More noble college history than thine ;
We'll sing to thy glory.
So far-famed in story,
And garlands of sweet music for thee twine.
Shout, sing, let it ring.
Shout Carolina o'er and o'er ;
The welkin above her, with saint, sage and lover^
Shall sound the swelling chorus evermore.
In contests with error
Thy sons feel no terror.
But faithful battle ever for the right ;
For truth is their token
And courage unbroken.
They stand among the foremost in the fight.
With Yale or with Princeton,
At home or at Winston,
Thy sturdy athletes play a winning game ;
On gridiron, diamond —
(A bad word — can't rhyme on't") —
The White and Blue will triumph e'er the same..
The Glee Club before you
Will try not to bore you,
But keep the music up to concert pitch ;
With songs gay, pathetic.
Amusing, athletic,
They leave you the decision which is which.

IN MEMORIAM.
EDWIN WRAY MARTIN was born in Arkansas on November 20, 1868,
and died at Pine Blufif, Arkansas, on December 29, 1896. He was a
student at the University of North Carolina, in the Law department,
in the years 1889-90 and 1S90-91, and the degree of Bachelor of Laws was
conferred upon him in June, 1891.
He was the founder and first Editor-in-chief of the Hellenian. He
was one of the founders of the Order of Gimghouls. He was a loyal and
devoted member of the Alpha Tau Omega Fraternity.
Wray Martin was a leader. He was honest, unselfish, ardent. When
his face was set toward the goal, his energies knew no respite till his purpose
was crowned with success.
He was an affectionate friend. He loved honor, and wore upon his breast
the white flower of purity and truth. Never was there more loyal friend.
To him friendshij) meant forbearance and trust and defence of good name
and love.
A mortal malady for months held him in its tightening clutch. Bravely,
uncomplainingly he awaited the approach of the dread messenger. His last
thoughts and words were of his friends at the LIniversity of North Carolina.
His dying act was, with weakened hands, to take from his breast the Maltese
Cross of gold, the emblem of his fraternity, and with gentle voice direct
that it be sent to one of his friends in the Old North State.
He is gone. Let us believe that as he went his eyes fell upon fields
unutterably bright, and his ears heard music such as never mortal ears have
heard. Our comrade is dead. God rest him !

Zoolog}' teaches that the hairs of the
head are hollow, and contain an oil that
gives them life. In clipping the hair
with scissors, this hollow is left open, and
the hair loses its life-giving properties.
I have a machine named the Singeing
machine, which removes the hair and at
the same time closes up the hollow,
causing the hair to retain its life-giving
properties, and therefore stopping the
hair from falling out or dying, and giving
it a soft growth.
Call and examine this machine and
have your hair singed.
Special attention given to dressing
Ladies' Hair. Cutting done with ex-
quisite and artistic skill by the old Uni-
versity Barber of twenty years' experi-
ence.
The singeing machine is highly rec-
ommended by scientists throughout the
country. Very respectfully,
T. D. DUNSTAN,

The following letter was received by a
Freshman from a six-year-old cousin :
" Dear i thought i would write
to you a few lines and ask you if they
has blacked you yet if they do let me
know if they black you all over or half
when is you coming home if they put
you into a house and lock you up if i was
