THE NEW PRESIDENT OF THE
UNIVERSITY.

DR.. Nenable's inaugural address to
the students of the University. deliv-
cred last Friday evening, is printed in
full in our news columns today. 1t is
worthy of a careful perusal, not only
bv alumni of the University, but by
every citizen Of the State. DIR. Nenable
has the right idea OF the charge over
which he has been called to preside.
The University Of a State, when it truly
fulfills it's duty, should be its chief
strength and glory, a light for the people,
the fountain-head of their life, the source
Of their uplifting and upbuilding, the bull
wark Of their liberties.
DR.. Nenable has taken up the
great work lad upon him by trustees
Of the University in such manner as
to indicate that his administration Of
its affairs will be a most successful
and progressive me-.
That he means to keep the Univer-
sity to the forefront in the educational
work of the State is plainly intimated
in his bold declaration concerning the
educational revival brought about by
the result of the recent political cam
paign in North Carolina. OF the adop-
ton of the amendment, he says:
Divested of all political color and
bearing, it marks one of the greatest
steps forward ever taken by the peo-
pie, virtually the enforced education Of
every citizen. 1t makes more schools
and better; Improvement in all lines
of education from the smallest school
in the far-off country district to this
University, the head of the educational
system Of the State.
The address shows that Dr.. Nenab!e
realizes that the University belongs to
the people; that it was created to serve
them. and that he means to keep it
! true to that mission.
There seems to be a widespread in
terest in the formation Of the project
ed State Literary and Historical rs
ISOLATION. Enough interest to secure
the success of the first meeting to be
held in the Raney Library Hall has al
ready manifested itself. This meeting.
we understand, will be the first public
meeting to be held in this beautifully
decorated Music Hall. 1t is singular
~ appropriate that an association that
has for its object the cultivation Of the
reading habit and the stimulation OF
literary activity throughout the State
/ should be the initial user Of this build
ing tina is destined to do so much for
the fostering of literature in Il city.
In beauty of nnish and completeness OF
arrangement. no library building in
any other of our cities can equal the
Olivia Raney Library building. The
fact that a generous hearted citizen
has built and equipped this ornate and
attractive house for the intellectual
uplifting of the city can but be an in
SEPARATION to every son On daughter OF
the State who attends this meeting to
90 home and work for the menta
progress of his W community and
commonwealth.

AT THE SHOW AT NIGHT.

From 4 spectacular point Of view the evening at
the Horse Show brilliant, though not from
q fashionable viewpoint. Perhaps there is a little
rnor0tony in the social side OF the story, and the
rnodish world is becoming bored. At least, that is
the impression created by the scene at Madison
Square Garden last night Another conviction
which forced itself upon one was that the major
iy 81 the people present were not there to see the
horses but the gowns and fashions. Scattered
through the vast crowd last evening, which al
most made the promenade impossible, were hand
somey dressed women IN groups. They are MILL
ners and dressmakers and this is to them free
exhibition of the latest Paris fashions and the
best creations Of the most expensive OF thelr craft
seems to be that OF dress Otherwise the show so
