THE WOLFPACK IS READYFOR ITS INITIAL

BATTLE

Enthusiasm Is Running High InStudent Body

With the cooling off of the weathercomes the feeling that it is about timefor old N. C. State to begin her cam-paign for the South Atlantic scalp.Of course, that goal is quite a distanceoff, in fact, it may be considered as ex-tremely remote; but it is said thatnothing is ever accomplished beyondone’s ideal, so let’s aim at the moonif‘x. we kill a ground-hog. It is badenough for one to fail who has anideal; but woe be unto the team ororganization that fails because of thelack of an ideal.. To read The Newsand Observer one would think that themost ardent State rooter has alreadygiven up hopes of winning any games,and that the team is being whippedinto shape merely to help fill up theschedules of our opponents. That’sthe biggest mistake of a lifetime.Now that our first game of the sea-

son is to be played on Riddick Fieldon next Saturday, we are beginning towonder just who will be our repre-sentatives on' the Wolfpack. Withsuch Okeen'. competition ’for .‘regularberths as is now being demonstrated,it is extremely difficult to pick a teamthat will go into the first game. CoachHartsell always keeps something uphis sleeve, so if he starts the gamewith an entirely different team fromwhat we think, so much the better,for we know he’ll have something in.reserve.Beginning at the pivot position, we

have Bostian, Van Sant, and Wallace.Bostian, a last year’s letter man, seemsto have the edge because of the year’sexperience. The good work of VanSant and Wallace, however, cannot beoverlooked, especially that of VanSant. He has been working mightyhard for three years, now, and hasquite a bit of experience. Bostian hasplayed end, and if the ends do notcome through, he may be shifted tothat position, which would give VanSant the call to center.

Hartsell is well helped with guards.With Pasour out of the game, tempo-rarily, with a bad knee, Floyd and Coxwill probably get the call for theopener. Several guards will proba-bly be given chances. Abernethy, Til-son, Honeycutt and Beasley, are alllikely men, especially Abernethy, whoseems to be able to open a, hole when-ever he sees fit. These positions will

State College Led the South Last Year; Dr. J. A.Ellis to Lead the

Last year North Carolina State Col-lege led the entire South in BibleStudy. 'This is a record that we areall proud to claim, and we should de-termine to hold this year. Last yearwe had 281 men who had 100 per centattendance at Bible Class for the en-tire term from an enrollment o: 375.The fall term course in Bible Studywas led by Dr. C. C. Taylor, teaching—'“The Principles of Jesus;" Dr. J. A.Ellis led the spring term in “Introduc- ,ing Men to Christ.” Both of thesecourses proved very helpful and in-structive to the men.This year Dr. J. A. Ellis will again

lead the course in the study of theBook of Mark. Over four hundredmen have already signed up for BibleClass this year; a total of 28 classesto be led by students in the dormi-tories have been organized. The first

- The outlook for a record year is verypromising. Willie Mock, as chairmanof the Bible Study program, and Mr.E. S. King, Secretary of the Y. M. C.A., are both pleased with the opening.Dr. J. A. Ellis is very enthusiastic,and he is giving his best to the lead-ers in order that the Bible Studyclasses will really mean something toState College men. Dr. Ellis attendedthe Blue Ridge Conference last year,and comes to his task full of inspira-tion and “pep” to help college menmeet their problems. We are glad tohave such a man as Dr. Ellis to leadour course.Watch State College set a new pace

in Bible Study again this year.

THE NEW MEMORIAL GATES

Handsome Entrance Soon To BePlaced On Campus

By the action of the Farmers’ andFarm Women’s Convention duringtheir session at the College on August2, 1922, State College is assured of ahandsome set ofgates at her entrance.These gates are to be dedicated toRichard Stanhope Pullen, and are agift to the College by the women ofthe State.

Mr. Pullen, to whose memory thegates are to be erected, was the donorof 3 acres, on which the College build-ings now stand. This act was the de-ciding factor in the location of theCollege on its present site. Mr. Pullenwas a native of Wake County, havingbeen born near Neuse, in 1822. Dur-ing his life he devoted his efforts andmoney to philanthropic actions, one ofwhich was the donation to the city ofRaleigh of the tract now known asPullen Park. He died on the 23d ofJune, 1895.The project was started 14 years ago

by Mrs. E. E. Moflitt, who introducedresolutions authorizing this gift be-fore the 1908 session of the Women'sBranch of the Farmers’ Institute. Fi-nancial depression made the projectinadvisable at that time and the mat-ter was dropped. In 1914 the idea waspresented to the women of the Stateagain, but the World War and its cor-responding high cost of living causedthe idea to be again laid on the table.In the meantime, Mrs. Moilltt hadmoved to Richmond, but she showedthat she had not forgotten her idea byher actions. In 1922, Mrs. Momtt re-turned to Raleigh and successfully ad-vocated the plan before the North Car-olina Federation of Home Bureaus.The women of the State selected Mrs.

W. C. Riddick, president of the PullenMemorial Association, to head thecampaign. 'She proposes to appointthe home demonstration agents of thevarious counties as county chairmen,and to have them solicit subscriptionsof one dollar from the women in theirrespective counties. In those countiesin which there is no Home Demonstra-tor, Mrs. Riddick is going to securesome capable woman who is willing totake charge of the work.

EDITOREAL

Things are getting back to normalcy. Freshmen have appeared on the campuswith bare craniums.

Perhaps you had noticed the ugly expression on the faces of the Overseas men.The Bonus Bill failed.

Our last issue seemed to take very well. No doubt this was due to Walton’spoetical outburst that was in evidence. Give us more.

For the information of the new men, we will explain that all the yells andshrieks that were heard on the campus last week are not a continuous thing.Merely a few imitations.

Our idea of real service was exemplified last Saturday afternoon, when the‘ entire Freshman Class appeared on Riddick Field and cleared it of rocks andother debris. They also took time to learn the College yells under the leadershipof Cheer Leader West. - I

There is, we understand, under way a great and beautiful addition to ouralready beautiful campus. It comes in the form of a large entrance gate to themain driveway leading up to the College. The Pullen Memorial Association isresponsible for this gift, which is to be built soon.

___!__Both the Literary Societies held their fall term initiation Friday night, and

judging from the number of entrants, the Literary Society work this year will beeven beyond our fondest hopes. Quite interesting plans are being made for theterm’s work, and every one taking part will not only be benefited, but will beentertained as well. All who have not already signed up for One of the societiesshould do so at once.

Quite a few of the County Clubs are reorganizing now, and most of them areshowing their excellent College spirit by subscribing to The Technician for thehigh schools of their counties. There could be no better way of advertising theCollege than this, and it is hoped that still others will follow those who havealready gone before. We hope to make The Technician the true representativeof the students, and we can easily do this if the men in the several classes willdo their bits and use its columns. Wherever it goes, let us make it a credit tothe College. ‘

We seem to have this year one of the finest Freshman classes that we haveever had here, and we are, indeed, proud of it. Its members are taking up theirresponsibilities like men, and give every indication of an intention to continueto do so. But there‘is one thing that many of them overlook. Many of theupper classmen have remarked about the seeming unwillingness of the new mento speak to them when they meet them on the campus. Now, men, this is alittle thing, but you don’t know how much it means to you in the friendshipthat the upper classmen will naturally acquire for you when they see that youreally want to be sociable. Just a little “Good morning, fellows,” or a “How doyou do?” goes. a long way. Just try it, men. Get the spirit.

The Y. M. C. A. Bible classes started their year’s work last Wednesday night,and true to all previous indications, ‘they started strong. The Bible Study sys-tem of our Y. M. C. A. and its success is a source of pride to every State Collegeman, and is a subject for conversation and wonder among all the colleges of theSouth. Just how it ever came into being in such a Vast way no one is able toexplain except that it had the proper men behind it to make things move. Thegrowth of the Bible Study courses during the last four years has been nothingshort of phenomenal. Mr. King and the members of the cabinet have workedceaselessly for the upbuilding of the whole system until it seems as though thepossible limit has been reached. More can be done, however, so keep going.

ALL ENDURANCE RECORDSBROKEN

Durham Allen Safely Survivesthe Usually Fatal Electrical

Initiation

All previous records were brokenFriday night, when Durham E. Allen,an Electrical Junior, survived in avigorous manner the usually fatal en-trance rites of the Student Branch ofthe American Institute of ElectricalEngineers. Mr. Allen was excellentlyfitted for the ordeal, as for months,and even years, he had been traininghimself for the coming ordeal. Farback 11 his Freshman year he saw thepessibility of winning a national namefor himself, if only he would begin intime to prepare for the final match.From every available source he got in-formation as to the probable methodof attack of his opponents, and the bestmeans of defense. Mr. Allen then pro-ceeded. with his training in a scientificmanner, and when the night of thefinal try-out arrived, it found him inthe pink of condition. Notwithstand-ing his excellent condition, his manyfriends were worried about the out-come, but his courage never once fal-tered. When the moment of momentsarrived, Mr. Allen, with a smile ofcourage on his face and many a friend-ly pat on the back, went forward tomeet his fate. At the end of the firstlap his friends found him in greatspirits and eager for the remainingtests. "When the time again arrivedfor‘him to set out on his way, herushed forth eagerly. The remainingpart of his journey defies description,as the terrible blows of the invisibleElectron came too fast and numerousfor tabulation. Through it all wentAllen, far, far fro mthe comfortinghand of a friend: miles and milesthrough the regions of torture. Whenat last he emerged, he came not asthe usual ghastly corpse, but with abit of a, smile that was indicative ofhis dauntless courage, he passed quiet-ly through the throng of friends thatwere awaiting him. Great was the ap-plause that greeted him'there, and itwas only by quick thought and actionthat his immediate friends *kept himfrom the hands of numerous reportersand photographers.

ROBESON COUNTY CLUBORGANIZES

One of the Largest on the‘ Campus

The first regular meeting of the Rob-eson County Club was held in the “Y”Thursday evening, September 21. Thepurpose of the meeting was to. bringtogether all the men from Robeson sothat they might become better ac-quainted. Knowing that the greatestdrawing card of any meeting is the“eats,” it was previously announcedthat refreshments would be served.This announcement brought all Fresh-men and most of the old men. Judg-ing from some of the speeches madeby the Freshmen, Robeson County isgoing to furnish some good men forthe literary societies.

After refreshments were served, fu-ture plans for the club were discussedat some length. With an enrollment

. of twenty-eight.men, the club will beone of the largest county clubs on thecampus. ‘The officers this year are: President,

W. C. John; vice-president, LloydCook; secretary-treasurer, J. M. Mc-Gougan.

YOUR CHANCE TO HELP!

A Call For Service

Mrs. Riddick is anxious to securethe name of some person in eachcounty who will act as chairman ofthe committee to collect funds for theproposed memorial gates for the Col-lege. In those counties in which thereis a Home Demonstrator or a FarmDemonstration Agent, Mrs. Riddickproposes to ask them to act as chair-man. However, there are 37 countiesin the State not covered in that way.If any student who is from a countynot having a Home Demonstrator orFarm Demonstration Agent knows ofsome capable women who would bewilling to take charge of this work,Mrs. Riddick would appreciate it very»much if the name would be reportedto 'her or to any member of the Tech-nician staff who will see that shegets it.

BERZELIUS CHEMICAL” SQ-CIETY PLANS SUCCESS-

FUL YEAR

In these columns filled with reportsfrom large departmental organizations,we would modestly call to your at-tention a small but vigorous organiza-tion at State College.The Berzelius Chemical Society is an

organization of the chemical facultyand students, the primary object ofwhich is to discuss current chemicalliterature and the latest discoveriesby chemists. Through this policy thestudent member obtains a comprehen-sive view of his chosen field, and in-formation on a wide range of subjectswhich prescribed courses of study de-bar from the classroom.

Several addresses from men who arewell known in chemistry circles havebeen planned for this fall. The ad-dresses are to be both instructive andinteresting.According to their value, business

and pleasure in the society are bal-anced in perfect equilibium as definedby the laws of Heck’s Phipie’s ,of Dr.Brewer’s heart does not harden thesociety will again entertain the Mere-dith Chemical Society in Winston Hall.Needless to say, the members of Ber-zelius are already anticipating thisevent.But the crowning social feature is

to be the annual dinner dance. Eachyear in halls where the odoriferoushydrogen sulphide has been replacedby the more pleasant odors of milady’sperfume, where bright streamers hidethe dusky walls, and where the softtones of the saxophone are heard in-stead of the rasping voices of instruc-tors, the “chemicals” strut and glideinto the wee small hours with thefairset of Raleigh’s fair sex. Lastyear the dance was an immense suc-cess, and the society plans to do evenbetter this year.On Wednesday night one sophomore

and eight freshmen were initiated intothe secrets of Berzelius. On Thursdaymorning one sophomore and eightfreshmen were noticed to act strange-ly. They refused all seats in spiteof the fact that looked tired andsleepy.

Oflicers for the society for the com-ing year are: J. K. Bloom, President;F. W. Kittrell, Vice-President; J. E.Teague, Treasurer, and Dewey Potts,Secretary.

More Than 100 Freshmen Re-port For Preliminary Work

When Coach Homewood issued thecall for candidates for the Freshmanteam, a few more than 100 men re-ported, which is an increase of ap-proximately 30 per cent over that oflast year. That number, however, hasbeen grahually decreasing until onlyabout 70 men are now out. That ismore than one man can handle well,so it is expected that Coach Home-wood will cut the squad before theend of the week.

It is entirely too early to attemptto sum up the prospects and makecomparisons with last year’s Fresh-man team, but all indications are thatthe team will be fully as strong asthat of last year. Coach Homewoodshould have no trouble in picking agood line that will average 180 lbs.The backfield will probably be con-siderably lighter, but very fast. Rack-ley, who comes to us from GoldsboroHigh School seems to have the mak-ings of a real quarterback. Rip Sum-merell, Miller, and Sprague, look likegood backfield men also. Spragueplayed with the Carolina Freshmenlast fall, and with a lot of work heshould come through as a dependableback. Elins, Roberts, Hendrix, White,and Greggson look like good linemen,but still have to undergo the test oftime and scrimmage. Scrimmage willstart sometime next week, and thenwe can see just who's who and why.The Freshmen have a pretty full

schedule, including games with ShelbyHigh, Burlington High, Scotland Neck,and Wilmington High, and ChapelHill High.

Phillup SpenceThe man had just informed the Pull-

man agent that he wanted a Pullmanberth. ,“Upper or lower?” asked the agent.“What’s the difference?” asked the

man?“A difference of fifty cents in this

case,” replied the agent. “The loweris higher than the upper. The higherprice is for the lower. If you want itlower you’ll have to go higher. Wesell the upper lower than the lower.In other words the higher the lower.Most people don’t like the upper al-though it is lower on account of be-ing higher. When you occupy the up-per you have to get up when you goto bed and get down when you get up.You can have the lower if you payhigher. The upper is lower than thelower because it is higher. If you are

‘ willing to go higher it will be lower.”But the poor man had fainted—The

be amply taken care of, regardless‘of_who gets the call.

Baker and Eller are expected toopen the season as tackles. Baker, alast year’s letter man, is lookingmighty good. With a year’s experi-ence behind him he should comethrough as a regular tackle. Dill,Jameson, and John are all good men,but Eller probably has the most ex-perience, and that goes a long way.A good tackle has to be a foxy oldfellow, so one’s experience gives hima decided advantage. With these menin the line we should not fear'any off-tackle plays from our opponents.The selection of ends is by far the

most difficult problem. Baum willplay one end, it is almost certain. Hesuffered a broken shoulder and atwisted knee last season, which maykeep him from going through theseason. As to the other end, GeorgeLasater, Ripple, Beatty, or McPherson,will get the call, Lasater probably hav-ing the edge. He goes down the fieldwell, and works good on the receivingend of a pass. Beatty and Ripple arealso men of varsity calibre, so theymay have a chance to show what theyhave before the initial fray is fin-ished.The scoring machine gives promise

of being the fastest in the State. Ran-dolph, who will call signals from ahalf, is expected to come through asan excellent field general and broken-field runner. He can follow his inter-ference better, probably, than anyother back. He is a fair punter, goodpasser, and a good receiver. Theother half will be played by eitherHolland or Long. LOng has a decidedadvantage in running signals, whichmay give him the call. Jeannette isslated for the quarter position. Beinga ten-second man (or better), he shouldhave little difficulty in circling theends for from ten to twenty-five yardsat a time. With the proper interferencehe should even go nearly the length ofthe field for a touchdown occasionally.There’s no doubt but that Tommy Parkwill do fullback duty. Coach Hart-sell will certainly not take a man fromthe game, who can average puntingsixty yards for a whole game, andthat’s Tommy’s record in the V. P. I.games on last November 11. Othermen expected to see active service areRed Lassiter, Strong, Satterfleld,O’Brien, Faulkner, Morris. and John-son. These men will have to hustleto beat the other men out for regularberths, but nothing is impossible.What do you say, boys, that we all

go down Saturday, and do our part ofthe rooting. A football team is com-posed of human beings, the whole ofwhich may be compared to any indi-vidual—he can do his best when heknows his friends are all behind him.

It’s almost time for our big gamesto begin coming off. In fact, it’s nonetoo early to begin‘ thinking whetherwe want a special train to go to Nor-folk to the V. M. I. and V. P. I. games.If you want a train, talk it up, andlet’s go. Those who went to theV. P. I. game last year remember howmuch Captain Price’s band added tothe occasion, so it might be well. tocarry it with us again. With allforces united, let’s make our motto:“Down with Carolina, V. M.

VETERAN’S "BUREAU TOSTAGE POULTRY JUDGINGCONTEST AT STATE FAIR“

ThMehabitation Department ofState College in conjunction with theCollege Poultry Department will stagea poultry judging contest on Wednes-day of Fair Week. The contest willbe open to all Veterans Bureau Train-ers in North Carolina, South Caro-lina, Tennessee, Georgia, and Florida.Word has already been received thatteams from the University of Tennes-see, Tennessee Tech, Middle TennesseeNormal School, University of Georgia,Georgia Tech, University of Florida,Clemson, Veterans Vocational Schoolat Waynesville, and Veterans Voca-tional School at Chick Springs, S. C.will participate in the contest.There will be two classes of judging

—Utility and Standard, and among theprizes offered are 3 silver loving cups,3 gold medals, 2 silver medals, and 2bronze medals.This will be the first interstate con-

test ever held among the Veterans Bu-reau Trainers in this district, and itshould prove interesting to those whoare in sympathy with the rehabilita-tion of the thousands of men whowere physically disabled during theWorld War. While this will be strict-ly a poultry judging contest, it is theforerunner of similar contests in theother departments. 'Considerable interest in the contest

is being shown by Mr. Armstrong’sclass of 25 men who say that StateCollege will be heard from at the con-test.To N. C. State College must be given

credit for promoting the first inter:state contest among trainees. Frank

THE TECHNICIAN

WHAT IS THE R. o. T. C.?

Early in the Civil War the greatleaders of both sides recognized thevalue Of the college man as a leaderof soldiers. Particularly valuable washe when his college training had in-cluded something of the science ofwar. Quite often it was only a smallknowledge of close order drill, but asslight as it was, it was always valuedhighly and rewarded generously.With this in mind, Congress enacted

a law in the year 1863 which providedfor large grants of land to collegeswhich would teach Agriculture, Me-chanic Arts and Military Science. Thislaw has been amended from time totime, so that today the Federal Gov-ernment is materially and liberallysupporting many colleges.Your college has for many years

participated in these “land grantfunds.”We say to the man who may feel

that the military training is an impo-sition rather than civic duty: “YOumay console yourself with the thoughtthat you are helping to pay for youreducation.” —With the National Defense Act of

June 3, 1916, the colleges passed fromthe cadet gray to the olive drab. Thispiece of legislation was designed toencourage military training in schoolswhich were not participating in thebounties of the “Land Grant Acts”;

' however, it allowed the establishmentof. units of the R. O. T. C. in the“Land Grant” Colleges.The Reserve Ofiicers' Training Corps

consists of Senior and Junior divi-sions. A Senior division of the Re-serve Ofiicers’ Training Corps may beestablished at any university and col-lege requiring of its students fouryears of collegiate study for a degree,and at essentially military schoolswhich, as a result of annual inspec-tions of such institutions by the WarDepartment, are especially designatedas qualified to establish a unit of theSenior division. Authorities of theformer (universities and colleges notessentially military) must establishand maintain a two-year elective orcompulsory course of military train-ing, as a minimum, for its physicallyfit male students. This course, whenentered upon, must in the case of suchstudents be a prerequisite for gradua-tionE. .When any member of this Senior

division has completed two years aca-demic service in that division; hasbeen selected by the President of theins tution and by its Professor ofM11 ry Science and Tactics (whomust be an army officer; has inade awritten agreement to continue in theReserve Ofilcers’ Training Corps forthe remainder of his course in the in-stitution, devoting five hOurs per weekto the military training prescribed bythe Secretary of War; has also madea written agreement to pursue thecourses in the training camps (onecamp of not more than six weeks’ dur-_..\

ation). When he has fulfilled allthese conditions he may be given, atthe expense of the United States, amoney commutation of subsistence ata rate not exceeding the cost of armyration during the remainder of hisservice in the Reserve Officers’ Train-ing Corps. This will amOunt to aboutthirty cents a day, or $9.00 per month.The establishment or retention of

the R. O. T. C. in a school is optionalon the part of the school, and like-wise, the War Department may with-draw the unit where the results ob-tained do not justify or warrant theexpenditure of funds and materials.

WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OFTHE R. O. T. C.?

We find, when we study the legisla-tion and the scheme of training, thatthere seems to be but one end in view;that of qualifying the graduates for acommission in the Officers’ ReserveCorps.

Seemingly, there is a second pur-pose; that of furnishing to as large anumber of young men as possible therudiments of a military training; butthat is only party true. The two yearsof the Basic Course are in truth aperiod of probation. From the men,who complete in a satisfactory mannerthe first two years of the training, areselected those, who have the inclina-tion to continue the training and whoby reason of natural endowment orearly childhood training, have thequalifications of leadership. If themen are not so selected for the ad-vanced work the first and principalpurpose of the R. O. T. C. will be de-feated.

It would be a serious waste of timeand energy on the part of the student,and an equal waste of time and goodmoney on the part of the Government,to continue the training of the student,who could not, or would not, by rea-son of lack of inclination, capabilityor energy, be qualified upon gradua-tion.The pay, amounting to about thirty

cents per day in a commutation ofsubsistence, is in no manner or way aconsideration. The real considerationin making the selections for the ad-vanced course is: The question ofwhether or not the man is going to“put out” enough to warrant the werkand expense of instructing him andcarrying him onthe rolls.

THE MILITARY SECTION

Let’s Write Up The R. O. T. C.

We are planning to make this Mili-tary Section interesting and helpful. 'Captain Wysor wants one man fromeach class to volunteer to write some-thing from his respective class eachweek for these columns. Anyone de-siring to tackle this job, see CaptainWysor or the R-2 ofiicer. The commis-sioned Army personnel at the Collegehas promised to write articles on newand interesting military subjects fromtime to time.We would also be glad to have any

jokes pertaining to the military lifeof the campus to lighten our columns.Whenever you hear a “good one” turnit in.

Our greatest glory is not in neverfailing, but in rising every time wefail.

FRESHMAN FRIENDSHIP.. COUNCILThe F. F. C. had its first meeting

last week, and it was surprising tosee the number of new students whoattended the first meeting.The officers of last spring will oili-

ciate until the new men get the swingof the organization, and then it willbe absolutely a ’26 organization. Byno means do the old officers intend tohave absolute charge, but are simplythere to help the new men get ac-quainted with the work and to helpthem in any way possible.

Mr. Brothers, President, gave an ad-dress of welcome to the new men, andtold them the purpose of the F. F. C.,and some of the work the last yearsF. F. C. did. Mr. Duls and Mr. Rog-ers also gave splendid talks on theworks and accomplishments of F. F. C.and what was expected of each mem-ber.Freshmen, let me say that you are

missing something if you do not getinto the F. F. C. Let me at least in-vite you to attend one of the meetings.Weekly meetings are held on Thurs-day evening from 6:30 until 7:15—Re-porter.

WHY NOT A FRESHMAN R. O.T. C. FOOTBALL TEAM

Almost every class on the “Hill” isorganizing a football team, and it hasbeen suggested that the Freshman or-ganize a team, since the real Fresh-man team under Coach ‘ Homewooddoes not take on any of these localclassf‘T elevens. Talk this up amongyourselves and get busy and put outa team.

SOLILOQUY ON NOTE

There's a word in the English languageWhich causes much distress.

It takes the joys all out of lifeAnd allows no idleness.

I’d roam this old world far and wide,By aid of steed and boats,

In search of a land uninfestedBy that horrid plague, called “Notes.”

The Prof. says they are valuableBecause they are the source

From whence all knowledge here mustcome, I

Except that of remorse.

So write your notes up lengthy,Including all detail,

And at the end success awaits;You surely cannot fail.

Just keep on striving, day by day;Don’t leave them till tomorrow.

Deficient notes at each term’s endCan mean nothing but sorrow.

Now, have your note-book by your side, IAtlhough it’s not your friend;

The noble phrases found thereinCan build a race of men.

When to many’s inconvenienceYou gather anecdotes; _

Don’t hesitate for the world must waitUntil you take your “Notes.”

MAKE WAY FOR LIBERTY

By Mildred Welch.

Toward the middle of the four-teenth century there stood in a littletown of Switzerland an old houseset in a quaint and fragrant garden.The widow of the living room lookedout upon the peaks of Mount Pila-tus. Here every day when twilightfell, there sat a woman, and in herarms her little son, Arnold Winkel-ried. As he lay there, and watchedthe sunset die upon the snowy sum-mits and the purple shadows creepslowly down into the valley, she toldhim stories "of his ancestors, theirbrave deeds and the blood and livesthey gladly gave for home and fatherland, till the little lad’s heartflamed into a high resolve that he,too, would one day give his life forSwitzerland.

The years slipped by and everabout the growing boy hot wordspassed over the wrongs of his coun-try; always he heard the clash anddin of arms and saw the men of Stansgo out to fight. “One day, I too, willgo, said Arnold, and got himselfready. In every feat of daring hewas first. No foot so swift or sureas his to scale the mountains, noswimmer‘so hold, no knight so skill-ful at jousting in the tournament.Fights with robber barons, foreignwars, the dangerous life of a spy, hewelcomed joyously that his might bea strong arm and a brave heart inthe hour of need.

Outside the little city of Semp‘ach,Duke Leopold'of Austria had drawnup his army. Here he meant.to givea last swift blow to the liberties ofSwitzerland. He formed his first di-vision into a hollOw square twentyor thirty ranks deep, each man armed

with a long harpoon-shaped spearThe Swiss Confederates formed theirlines into a wedge, and with a shoutrushed forward to break the Aus-trian square. But the bristling frontstood fast and many a patriot fellimpaled upon the spear points. Againthey tried and failed, leaving deadand dying on the field. The lineswavered and Arnold Winkelriedstepped out of the ranks. The lightof the morning was on his young, up-lifted face. Around him the ancientmountains, strong and pure, lookedcalmly down, the blue sky of Switzer-land arched over him, the sunshineglinted on’ the spear points.

“Make way for liberty!” he cried,Then ran with arms extended wide,“Make way for liberty!" he cried,Their keen points met from side to

side.Swift to the breach his comrades

fly.“Make way for liberty!! they cry,And through the Austrian phalanx

dartAs rushed the sprears through Ar-

nold’s heart.Thus Switzerland again was free,Thus death made way for liberty!

Four hundred years have come andgone and still the splendor of thegolden deed shines down the wastesof time till it rests upon our westernshores; the glory of that day when“rushed the spears through Arnold’s’heart.”

Make way for liberty! Why, thatis just what we went into it for,wasn’t it, boys? Only for that.

VictoryAmerica through with making wayfor liberty?

Listen! Someone calls you—theChrist. Who in the darkest hour ofhistory through death made way forus to God, on Calvary. Do you hearHim? “I made way for you. Makeway for Me.” Do you hear Him calland the tramp of your comrades inarms as they go to the front? Teach-ers, lawyers, doctors, business men,ministers, once again they have putbehind them rest and ease, pleasure,wealth and honor. Before them aredark slums and haunts of wickedness,the sin and disease of heathenism,absence from home, loneliness, heart-break.

But when sunset has come and thelast gun fired, the colors furled, veryweary you lay your armor down,sweeter far than strains of any mar-tial music you will hear again theChrist who called you, say:

“Through life and death, he madeway for Me and liberty.”

Jumping around from one job toanother will ultimately drag any mandown to the bottom of the ladder andmake him a stepping-stone for the realstickers in the game of life.When you feel the fancied greater

opportunities of other fields tugging atyour sleeve just hold a short commun-ion with yourself and remember thatit’s the man and not the line whichachieves success.You will then decide that there is

nothing better than the work you aredoing and that you make your ownopportunities by the spirit you put intoyour task every day of the year.. The fellow who attempts to dodgethis fact is only kicking progress inthe shins—Selected.

The regular meeting of the clubTuesday night was called to order byPresident Anderson .promptly at 6:30.It was decided at the last meeting thatwe would start on time and stop ontime. While the programs are bothinteresting and instructive, the clubdoes not wish to take the men’s timetom their study or other college du-ties.

J. L. Wall, in his remarks on hograising, brought out some convincingpoints as to why North Carolina farm-88 should grow some. hogs fer mar-bt.

17 ELECTROCUTIONS HELDON CAMPUS

Electrical Society Strengthened

Winston Hall was the scene of a se-ries of gruesome incidents last Thurs-day and Friday nights when seven-teen Electrical Juniors were electro-cuted prior to their reception into theState College Student Branch of theA. I. E. E. To the old members, thecontortions a‘nd exclamations of thevictims brought reminders of last year,but sympathy was not to be found 'inany of the lot. Thursday night tenwell-scared and fearful Juniors as-sembled and were carried through thevarious degrees of the Society. Sever-al of them had narrow escapes fromserious injury, but the presence of adoctor prevented excess application ofthe juice in cases where the frequencyof the heart was too great.

“Co-ed” Brown failed to substanti-ate his claim as a human insulator.'When the voltage was only 800,000the dielectric of his system collapsedand the doctor ordered that no morejuice be given him. The inductanceof D. E. Allen’s body caused such alag in the current that the cross buck-ing of the lines of force produced in-ternal strain too great for the youngelectrician. His initiation was com-pleted, however, and he is now wellon his way to recovery.“Red” Hamrick had the least trou-

.ble in completing the degrees, and thereason was not discovered until toolate to remedy it. It seems that hecarried a pocket full of ohms withhim, and their inductive reactance wassufficient to counterbalance the heavycurrent flowing through his body.Even a potential of 2,000,000 voltsfailed to seriously affect him.With these few exceptions the initi-

ation was completed without any se-rious mishap. The second night theremaining seven Juniors were perhapsless anxious to go through than theirpredecessors, due to rumors that hadbeen floating around on the campusduring the day. Doubtless some .ofthem observed Bill Wells standing upon class and staying in his room atmeal times.

In spite of their trepidation, no se-rious accidents occurred. Excitementcaused “Shorty" Bailey’s heart to sus-pend action for three or four beats,and consequently he failed to fully ap-preciate one of the degrees. The oldmen who carried Bailey through failed
