is very unlikely to be realized in this genera
ton.
So far as the next three years are con-
cerned, the matter is decided already, the
representatives of the universities having
closed a contract for the use of Broad Street
Park on Thanksgiving Day Of 1915, 1916
and 1917. But that scarcely touches the
meat of the controversy, il there Is one. The
games are staged in Richmond, as the Star
itself recognizes because the gate receipts here
are larger in an enormous proportion than
they could reasonably be expected to be any
where else. Where in North Carolina could
$4,000 persons be collected willing to pay
from 81 to S1.60 to witness football game?
Let echo answer--or the Star, If it can find
appropriate to say
Moreover, the crowd is more nearly neutral
here in Richmond than it would be in any
North Carolina city. Not only are there
thousands of native Tarheels who have be-
come citizens of Richmond, but the Blue and
White rooters are increased always by the
alumni of Virginia institutions other than the
university itself. whose amiable jealouses
are manifested in fervent hope that the
Orange and Blue will be trailed in the dust.
No, the games are not likely to be alter
mated. They will be played here in the future
as they have been played In the past-and
for the same excellent reasons.

hand Is the hand of sItill--or artistry
whilc tho left remains that of mere
brute strength. Division OF labor Nis
an advantage. and hence we have
adopted 1t In our evolution. Tho rca-
son why the right hand has been
chosen by nature to be developed in
this direction Is that tho left side Of

Apparently this. as Kipling would say,

ready to tell II. Writes DIR. Regnault
In substances:
Animals arc ambidcxtrous, because
with them there is no division Of la
Dor, or very little of 1t. Man ia right
handed because with him the division
of labor is pushed to it's farthest point.
1T Is for reasons of utility that man
prefers TO use one hand for delicate
work. He selects the right, but IL II
is unavoidable he is able to employ the
left. 1t is well known that persons
whose right arms have been amputated
or pnralyzed can educate their left
arms and are finally able to use these
as we'll as those that they have lost, It
is also we'll known that certain pro-
fess.onals. pianists. for instance. or
riolinists, can execute very difficult
movements with the left hand"

DR.. Rcgnauit declares he has never
seen any really ambideXtrous persons.

sons who use both hands for all pur-
poses equally we'll and indfferently."
Those who say thai ambidcXtrous per-
sons arc not rare, he says. call by this
name left-handed persons who have
learned in infancy to execute certain
difficult acts with the right hand, such
as eating. sewing or writing. But
these same persons use the left hand
spontaneously when they execute nat
ural difficult motions. such as throw
ing stone ut n mark. etc. Moreover:
1T Is not proper to say that man
is ambidcNtrous who has, with diff

indiffercntly with one hand or the
other. | once knew a left-handcd
painter who had learned to paint with
either hand. But no matter how skill

ways reserved for the right. With
musicians the left hand Is the MEG hani-
cal hand; the right Is the artistic.
Some psychologists have MAIN

of our two hands would contribute to

Free Lunches at the Schools

THAT is an interesting experiment which
has been tried at the Jefferson School,
with every indication far that it has justi-
fled completely the expectations of its spon-
sors. Hot lunches have been furnished to
the pupils free Of charge, and the health Of
hcer who is supervising the work and its re-
suits sees already substantial Improvement
in mental and physical vgor.
Just how far the arm of the city or State
government should be extended in aiding the
youth OF the land to obtain the rudiments of
an education, whether it should reach the
point OF supplying IL midday meal, is perhaps
a question, but IT has been decided in the
affirmative In other municipalities Obvious
", public responsibility is increased when
school attendance is made compulsory.
The School Board has sanctioned the ex-
pertinent now being conducted, but it has not
supplied any of the funds. II a final analysis
of results demonstrates wisdom and bene-
fcence of the plan, il might prove possible
for the board to give it a little moro than
