SCHOOL BEGINS
ITS new YEAR
Band, Singing and Speechmaling at the
Opening Exercises Monday
Morning
FOOTBALL GAMES SCHEDULED

With singing and band-playing
and speech-making the Chapel Hill
school got off to a fine start Mon
day morning.
L. R. Sides, the new principal
and acting superintendent, made
his debut, as it were, and evidently
made pleasant impression upon
both the children and parents who
attended the opening exercises in
the auditorium.
N. w. Walker, member Of the
school board, gave an outline Of the
forthcoming years work, and told
the names Of all the teachers. Rev.
w. D. Moss conducted the devo-
tional part Of the ceremonies and
made talk to the children.
The Parsons remarks upon ath-
letics led to a little tilt between
himself and Mr.. Walker. The Par
son said he thought perhaps too
much time was devoted to athletics.
Mr.. Walker, when his turn to speak
case, said the Parson was wrong
that, if anything, athletics de-
served more attention than they
got. The children made it plain
that they preferred Mr.. Walkers
views. They applauded him while
Mr.. Moss smiled indulgently upon
them.
The school marched into the au-
ditorium to the music of the Boys,
Band. The whole gathering joined
in the singing. "Come Thou AL
mighty King" was the opening and
/" America" the closing song.
G. H. Paulsen, business manager
OF school athletics, and H. B. Blan-
chard, coach, have been busy ar
ranging schedule for the football
team. The first game will be in
Mebane tomorrow, as one of the at
fractions of the Mebane Fair. The
team will go to Raleigh, Friday,
September 26; to Durham, Friday,
October 3; and to Oxford, Friday,
October 10.

Lloyd Incubator Soon

The modern 4,60O-egg incubator
ordered by PC. Lloyd and his sons
last spring is due at the end of this
month. 1t is expected to go into
operation the first of November.
Mr.. Lloyd's sons, Ivan, Melvin,
Brady, and Wallace, are going to
run a hatchery. This will take
the eggs from all comers, hatch
them out, and turn the chickens
over to the owners. This incubator
soon to be set up by the Lloyds is
said to be wonder Of efficiency.
1t has a ventilating system by
which the air is revitalized, and a
nursing section where the young
chicks are cared for a day or so
after birth while more eggs are
put in to hatch. The dimensions of
the big box are 8 by by S IL feet.
The Lloyd sons have built a house
for it.

AIMING NOW AT 5-HOLE COURSE
Country Clubs Golf Committee Hope
for Some Play This Fall

The immediate objective of the
golf committee Of the country club
is to get a temporary fve-hole
course in playing condition as soon
as possible. If Chairman Critz
George and his fellow committee.
men can get little more money
and perhaps a contribution Of man
ual labor by some of the golf en-
thusiasts, there should be some
fairly good play this fall.
On the second and third fair
ways the grass is thick and smooth
already. Most of the fourth is in
good shape, but a ditch remains to
be filed here. 1t would not take
much labor to finish off the greens
on these three holes. Rock still
covers the first part of the first
fairway, but it is proposed to put
a temporary tee half way down the
hill and beyond the rocky district
A number Of golfers, among them
A. w. Hobbs, T. F. Hickerson
Critz George, and A. G. Nash, have
recently been batting the balls
around on the better stretches.

POULTRY PROFITS
PLEASE FARMERS
The Demand for Pure-Bred Fowls Grows
Steadily in Orange
County
LARGE RETURN ON INVESTMENT

"I could place 5000 chickens
among Orange county farmers to-
morrow if I could get good pure
bred specimens nearby" said R.
P. Harris, agriculture teacher in
the Chapel Hill school, yesterday.
This eagerness on the part of the
farmers to obtain good breeds of
poultry is proof of the progress
made by the campaign for more
and better poultry in this county.
The idea has taken hold.
"It is simply a matter of money
return" continued Mr.. Harris.
"The farmers who go in for poul-
try find that they make money at
it; their friends, seeing this, want
to get into the game too. When
you get poultry-raising well start
ed in any one section it spreads by
the force Of example. We can leave
that section alone, as far as persua-
sion goes and pass on to some part
of the country where a start has
not been made.
''I am satisfed-and I reach this
conclusion after consulting actual
records that the farmers are max
ing a better money return upon
poultry than upon any others of
their ventures; more profit, ! mean,
in proportion to the investment Of
labor and money"

WAR-LIKE DEMONSTRATION
Towns Ex-Service Men Pull Off
Gesture" on Defense Day

S~S~~NN ~ "SA
the observance Of Defense Day
came off as scheduled last Friday
at noon ON the little paved plaza
in front of the post Office.
If radio-photography could just
have thrown across the sea to Eu-
rope picture Of the war mania on
the countenances of Carl Durham,
E. R. Rankin, Francis Bradshaw,
Charles Martindale and the dozen
or so other ex-service men, Premiers
Macdonald and Herriot would
have Shivered in their boots for
the peace Of the world. @
And could the ferocious CLEAN in
the eyes of Reserve Lieutenant Fl.
R. Totten have been broadcasted
around the globe, Mussohni would
have launched a new recruiting
campaign for the protection of
Italy and the Bolshevik govern
ment would have called out new
levies to erect ramparts around
Moscow.
1t was a sight to make peace
lovers grow pale with dismay and
march on Congress to protect
against the militarization of Ameri-
ca. AS it was, the strength of the
gathering almost broke the back
of the international peace move
ment, and there's no telling what
might have happened if the mar
tial minded adjutant of the Ameri-
can Legion, w. B. Neal, hadn't
been kept in his bake shop by a
shortage of labor and if Battling
Charlie Gooch, just as he started
for the post office, hadn't been call
ed to duty with the fire company
to help quench a blaze in one of the
fraternity houses.
To make matters as bad as pos
sible Robert B. House, the histor-
ian, of Raleigh, melted the nation
to arms by making a three-minute
talk in which he said that lack of
preparation in the past had not
prevented wars and that it was a
good idea for people to turn their
thoughts, once a: year, to measures
of defense.
The boys band, with School
Principal L. R. Sides leading them,
played two or three tunes capably
and won a vote of thanks from the
assembled veterans. E. r. Rankin,
who acted as chairman of the meet
ing, told of the opportunity to en-
list in Lieutenant Totten's reserve
battery of artillery. John M.
Booker and the editor of this news
paper were called upon for speech
es, but, fearing that their words
might fan the passions of the crowd
into flame and precipitate an i'm
mediate declaration of war, they
declined-much to the general re-
lief.

Chapel Hill Chaf

D. d. Carroll, in arranging for
an automobile to meet him in
Greensboro upon his return from
Europe year hence, is stin behind
A. S. Wheeler's record in precise
ness Of planning. 1t is related that
Mr.. Wheeler, a few summers ago,
sat down with paper and pencil to
calculate the cost of trip for him
self and his family to the Rocky
Mountains; and that when they had
made the trip and got back to
Chapel Hill in September the ac-
tual expenditures had varied by
just five cents from the June esti-
mate.
This calls to mind'a classic golf
yarn. A man who had never swung
a club before was persuaded to try
the game. He had the famous "be-
ginner's luck" and his first at
tempt was a superb drive. The
ball went straight down the fair
way and rolled onto the green. As
he saw it come to a stop within a
few inches of the cup the man
exclaimed in his disappointment
"Well, I'll swear! I missed it'll"
Maybe this is the way Mr.. Wheeler
felt about his miscalculation.
The custom of wearing knickers
was slow. in starting in Chapel
Hill. When Jonathan Daniels
took to them, as a student here
three or four years ago, they made
him a marked man on the campus.
In controversy in the columns of
the Tar Heel I recall that one of
his opponents commented causti-
cally on his knee-length breeches.
j. G. de Roulhac Hamilton and
William s. Bernard were for a
long time the only members of the
faculty who appeared in this garb.
But now the fashion is gaining new
devotees every day. In the last
| few days | have seen Parker Dag
gett, and Wallace E. Caldwell, and
G. 7. Murchison, and Thomas L.
Kibler in knickers, and I hear of
Others who contemplate allying
themselves with this modern group.
I am hoping that DR.. William de B.
MacNider will be won over soon.
| have remarked his rather solemn
appearance as he passes my home
mornings and I believe knickers
would impart to him an air of
sprightliness in accord with his
still far from advanced age.
1t is not so many years since the
smoking of cigarettes was looked
upon as unsuitable for men well
along in years. A cigar or pipe
was thought to be more dignifed,
l can remember when the fondness
for cigarettes of the late Eben
Alexander, after he gave up his
post as Minister to Greece and came
back here to resume his professor
ship, was regarded almost as an
eccentricity. He had a firm hold
ION. the affections Of both faculty
and students. OF course the stu.
dents didn't object to his cigarette
smoking-they liked to see him al
lit-but some of his colleagues
would shake their heads a little
sadly at the thought of one whom
they loved SO well being addicted
to this habit. 1t is very different
now. Everywhere you see elderly
men putting at cigarettes. Robert
l.. Strowd is one who indulges in
the pastime. Just before he start
ed away to a sanitorium in Michi-
gan recently I asked him if they
would let him smoke there. 1t de-
veloped that he had been thinking
