Letter from Chapel HILL.
To the Gold Leaf.

Chapel Hill, N. c., May, 2, 191O.-The
Memorial Services to DIR. Eben Alexand
der the late dean of the University, were
held in Gerard Hall Sunday afternoon.
The exercises were very personal and
simple, as simple as the life OF the great
man in whose memory they were held.
Rev. R. W. Hogue opened the services
with beautiful prayer. DR.. Kemp P.
Battle presided and in an Introductory
address spoke of the brilliant mind, the
craftsmanship, and the beautiful home
life of DIR. Alexander. Mr.. A. II. Wolfe,
president of the Senior Class, spoke feel
ingly of the student love of DR.. Alex
ander. Prof. W. S. Bernard of the de-
partment of Greek with simple eloquence
interpreted the life oil DR.. Alexander. He
found the outstanding characteristics of
his life to be expressed by the Greek word
edios, sort OF pity, ruth, sympathy. an
indefnable tenderness and something
more. He exhibited this same fine quail
ity whether at the Court OF Greece, in the
deans Office or on the streets OF Chapel
Hill. The principal address was deliver
ed by Mr.. Josephus Daniels, the gifted
editor of the Raleigh News and Observer.
Mr.. Daniels spoke for the trustees and
alumni. In an interesting and compre
hensive manner he sketched the life ofDr.
Alexander. Sprung from forbears who
were pioneers in the founding and build
ing of the city of Knoxville, a high honor
graduate and loyal son of Yale, chair
man of the faculty of the University of
Tennessee, professor Of Greek in the Uni
versity of North Carolina, American
Ambassador to Greece, and Dean of the
University are the facts with which Mr..
Daniels paid rare encomium to great
man. Mr.. Daniels gave his address a
personal touch that added much to it's
interest and charm. He told of Senator
Ransom's hesitancy in approving Presi-
dent Cleveland's appointment Of DR..
Alexander and how the old General was
finally won over by DR.. Winston's ap-
peal to his love for his alma mater and
his State.
Senator Ransom lived to bless the day
he approved DR.. Alexander's appoint
ment. The people Of Greece and the
press OF both countries voiced the opin-
ion that DR.. Alexander was perhaps the
best minister that any country ever sent
to Greece.
Tulane University of New Orleans, is
making arrangements for a rectangular
debate between Tulane. North Carolina,
Virginia, Vanderbilt, and Missouri. This
debate will require two years for COM
pletion. 1t will be one of the most sig
nifcant contests engaged in by any OF
, the American Universities being of inter
state and national interest and conse-
quence.

1 to 0, won from Georgetown to 1,

Seaboard Air Line Railway a Great
Force in Development.
Sanford Express.

Sanford Express.
The consolidation of a multitude OF
small and poorly equipped lines into
what is now the Seaboard Air Line
Railway, with its trains running to
important centres in half a dozen
States, and connections whereby all
parts of the country can be quickly
reached, has added value to every
acre of farm, garden, orchard and
forest lands in thousands OF square
miles of territory. Study the map OF
this system. The once inadequate
TRANSPORTATION facilities which re-
tarded growth and increase in values
have been changed and the trans
formation wrought by the service
now furnished is seen and felt in every
community. New towns are spring
ing up with busy factories and old
towns and villages are taking on
new growth. Vacant acres have been
converted into farms with apple and
peach orchards and berry patches,
and homes filled with prosperous and
busy occupants are more numerous
than ever. Combination OF capital
is not always detrimental to the best
interests of the people.

Officers Must Stand Examination.

Raleigh, April 24-Ait-Gen. J. F.
Armfield says it will be the policy of
the North Carolina National Guard
to, as far as practicable at this time,
provide for the examination ofguard
officers applying for commissions as
to their competency for the office
sought To this end there will be
examining boards appointed in
various parts of the State, the mem
bers being in towns most easily &C
cessible for the various sections in
which they are located. The first
board to be appointed is for Ashe-
vile. This is composed of Lieut.
Col. W. G. Smith, Maj. Lawrence
Young, Maj. S. c. Jordan. This in
novatiOn is in compliance with the
provisions of section 1903 of the

Thousands of gallons OF the l.. &

by machinery. Only chemically pure
color is used. The actual cost of L. & M.
is only about $1.30 per gallon when the

this product, or paint made by costly
hand labor in pot with a stick, pro-
ducing few gallons at time; and at
that very likely made with common

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot ret ch
the diseased portion of the ear There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is by
constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused
by an infamed condition of the mucus lining
OF the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
mfamed you have rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed. deafness is the result, and unless
the Inflammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out
OF ten are caused by Catarrh, which is moth
ing but an int1amed condition OF the mucous

Young SOutherner's Oratory
Startling Novelty

The following which is taken from
an exchange will be read with inter-
est:
In what is declared the supreme eff
fort in Oratory in Pawling School, at
Pawling, n. Y, a defamation that
stirred his Northern hearers as they
had never been stirred by Northern
eloquence, Thomas Dixon, Jr., son of
the famous Southern author, won the
first prize for oratory in an UMPIRE
cedented manner last week. His sub
lect was Il condensed version of
Charles Gaston's speech before the
Democratic convention, taken from
The Leopard's Spots" and some
sentences from 1.-The Clansman.
Young Dixon is Is years of age. His
speech was a startling novelty to
Yankee audience and swept the Judges
on their feet. Dixon threw himself
into it with fire and passion and his
Northern judges forgot to grade him
on the technical points of oratory.
When he sat down in whirldwind of
OF applause they had not made q
mark. They just gave him a hun
dred, awarded the medal without dis
cussion and devoted their time to
figuring out the fellow who was en-
titled to the second prize.

Gen. G. S. French, major general of
the Confederate army, has just died
at the age of 90. He was the Oldest
living graduate of West Point at the
the time of his death. Gen. French
was born in Gloucester. n. j., in 1918
and graduated from West Point in
1913. He served under Gen. Taylor
IN the Mexican war and was wound
ed at the battle of Buena Vista. Re-
turning to New Jersey he was pre-
sented with a sword by that State.
1t was probably not generally known
that Gen. French was a native of
New Jersey, although he lived in the
South and fought in the Southern
army.
