told him that we had no handbal

said that he didn't insist on that

agreed.
While the lecturer stopped tc

To Toll

There has been good atten-

Saturday afternoon parties, but
it appears that some of the
members may have been staying
away because of fear that they
may be subjected to too much
toll.
The people at these gather
ings have been working on dec
orations and equipment for the
house-hemstitching napkins,
painting chairs, and so on-but
these activities are only for
those who feel inclined to it.
The committee wants the mem
bers to know that those who
want to spend their time at
bridge or NAH jongg or conver-
sation are lust as welcome as
the toilers. They will get just
as much sugar in their tea and
just as large a share of sand
wiches and cakes.
The hostesses for this coming
Saturday afternoon will be Mrs
Odum, Mrs. John M. Booker,
Mrs. Hobbs, and Miss Guelda

GOOch = Neal Luck
They Get Free Trip to Atlanta and
Pick Up Bargains

Because a bookkeeper down in
Georgia made an error, Charlie
Gooch and w. 3. Neal got free
trip to Atlanta and back, saw
the two last basketball matches
played by the Carolina team,
and picked up some remarkable
bargains in bakery and restua-
rant equipment.
This is how it happened: A
hotel equipment company in At
lanta went broke and had to sell
out. It's entire stock was taken
over by a dealer in cafe furnish
ings. The dealer told his book
keeper to let all the concerns
customers in Georgia know that
they could come to Atlanta, ex-
penses paid, and attend the sale
of the bankrupt company's
stock.
The bookkeeper was either
day-dreaming or forgetful. He
disregarded the words Sin Geor-
gia," and sent out the notice to
customers all over the South.
When Gooch got the letter he
told his friend Neal. If they
were to catch the next train for
Atlanta they had to leave
Chapel Hill in Is minutes. They
flung a few necessary articles Of
clothing into a bag, hoped into
an automobile, sped to Durham
and a few hours later were in
Atlanta. Both the basketball
matches and the bargains de-
lighted them. Mr.. Neal says
that he procured some much
needed equipment for his new
bakery at from one fourth to one
third the regular price, and
much of the stuff had never
been used before. Mr.. Gooch
had the same pleasant exper-
ience.
The new building of the Hill
Bakery, going up next to the re-
Gently burned Pickwick Theatre
building is almost completed and
Mr.. Neal expects to be operating
there by the 18th of April.

form, was rehearsing the chorus
Iof Eye Gods" the student mus.
lcal comedy to be given two
weeks hence. The young Eng.
Elishman was so fascinated by
the music and the dancing that
he forgot all about his camera
He asked many questions about
the troupe, and finally exclaim-
ed, with unmiStakable sincerity
Il wish they could put on that
show tonight while I'm here!"
He had been travelling with
DR.. Grenfell twelve weeks or
more, and had heard the same
talks and wound out the same
pictures over and over again,
and you could see that he was
fed up on it, devoted as he was
to his chief. He was yearning
for song and laughter and dam
cling.
He told me that often, when
they were to stay as long as a
day in a town, he would rent a
flivver and drive around to see
the place. In Oklahoma City
he reverted absent-n1indedly to
the English practice Of driving
on the left side of the street,
and a policeman pinched him.
Pinched was the word he used.
It is amusing to hear a man
with such pronounced Eng
lish accent using American
slang.
DR.. Grenfell says that in Lab
rador he and his workers wear
no furs at all. The outer gar
ments of the approved outfit
are of cotton woven in Lancash-
ire specially for the Labrador
force. DR.. Frenfell says the
web is so fine that the cloth is
air-tight. He has folded piece
of it into cup-like form and has
found that it would hold water
three or four days without a
drop leaking through. When
the world war came on he jour
neyed to Washington, showed
the cloth, and persuaded the
United States Navy to adopt it.
