HIPPOL CASTLE IS
RISING IN GLANDON
In Other Words, They Are Clear
ing the Ground For the New
GimghOul Lodge
TO SAVE THE ROCK PILE

Hippol Castle in Glandon For
est, or the contemplated lodge
of the Order of Gimghoul in
Gimghoul development will be
under way of construction at
an early date, probably about
May l, according to Professor
Thomas F. Hickerson, of the
University engineering faculty,
who is one of the promoters of
the project. Native stone blocks
which are to be used in the ex-
terror construction have been
delivered. A rugged, unshapen
exterior appearance is to be the
architectural design, which in
this respect is strikingly simi-
lar to Grove Park Inn, Ashe-
ville's famous tourist resort.
This irregular style is to pre-
vail in the construction of the
observation tower and terrace.
The plan of the building will
symbolic the old English castle
and the embodiment of knight
hoods spirit in keeping with the
conception of the Order of
Gimghoul.
Actual building operations are
being delayed at present because
the architects plans have not
yet been completed and deliver
ed. Nathaniel C. Curtis, of the
faculty of Tulane University,
himself a member of the order
and a former resident of the
University community, is re-
sponsible for the plans.
The old lodge will be removed
by May 1. AS much of the old
as can be utilized in the new
will be used. The forest growth
on the site has been cleared a.
way. The new lodge will face
the southeast. A porte-cochere
entrance fifty feet wide will
lead to the castle door, which
will be at the base of the tower.
The Gimghoul road is to be ex-
tended, forming a loop at the
east end, in order that motorists
may have an ample view of the
castle and it's surroundings.
1t has been suggested that the
rock pile, which was started
many years ago by DR.. Battle
and is now known as the Fresh
man Rock pile, be converted into
some sort of neat rustic seat,
perhaps semi-circular in shape,
as a kind of memorial to the
late University executive. 1t
is not proposed to remove the
stones or to destroy the senti-.
mental value of the pile of rock;
rather, if used, they will remain
approximately where they are.

The Mayor to Fill His Chasm

Mayor Robinson announces
that he will start work on his

quired and these can be gotten.
The building will have store
rooms on the first floor and fra
ternity halls above, with a large
basement underneath.

Heel for the first time, one of
my predecessors gave me the
hint that the choicest morsels of
conversation always came be-
tween moves in a checker game.
So / hied myself away in pur-
suit of the original crossword
puzzle. In the Carolina Barber
Shop l found the patriarchs of
Chapel Hill, who could see four
moves ahead and could tell what
was going into the hole next
to Sutton and Alderman's. What
so and so got when he went
hunting, where a still was
found and how much "likker"
was brought to town, when a
new bus was going to be put on,
who was building a new house,
why the City Manager went to
Washington-in fact, all the
five w's of reporterdom. The
war of the reds and the blacks
was also regularly waged at the
little stand next to E. P. Gates
store, at Jack Sparrow's Shop
and in lawyers offices. These
were the founts of general wis
dom. For the official political
news, Mayor Robinson's office /;
for country news, Andrews
Cash Store on Saturday after
noon; for things happening on
the Durham road, the bus ter
minals-these were the oases in
an apparently arid place. But
the worst of it was that l
couldn't get into print the re-
suits of hours on end of instruc-
tive conversation, due to the
idiosyncracies of a unfeeling
editor.-E. S. B.
The Churches stand back from
Franklin Street waiting the
seventh day. They stand silent
ly and impressively with some
thing of the Sphinx about them,
as though they were asking a
question or withholding the ans
wer to a question. 1t is diff
cult to know which. The Epis-
copalian Church holds it's cross
against the trees of the arbore-
teum and the sky, higher than
the other church tops, the Pres
byterian Church is small and
patient, the Baptist large and
sure, the Methodist anxious.
At night when the moon is not
full and people are asleep the
churches stand against the
shadows of the night. The Bap-
tist Church is ghostly and white
and beautiful like the ghost of
an old temple-one waits expect
ing to hear the low rumble of
thunder or the sound of soft
singing far away on a hillside
of people coming to worship.
Moving shadows in the yard Of
the Episcopal Church might be
the dark forms of monks as
they patter in bare feet telling
their beads. There is no gray
and white CLEAN of tombstones
in the yard of the Presbyterian
Church. 1t is a pity Morning
finds them waiting again.-E. E.
+
The thought suddenly struck
me the other day of how singu-
larly interesting would be a
symposium of short biographies
of Chapel Hills business men.
In my minds eye | could see a
picture of w. l.. Tankersley,
known to University students
for thirty years as a dealer in
candies, fruits, cigars, and SIM
liar wares. Charles Gooch,
swearing by "Quality-Service,
Since 1903," has built a cafe
which has become a Carolina
institution. And who knows

Labor President
Very Optimistic
Over Business

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Mar. O.
In spite Of an army Of unemployed
which lie estimates at twenty mil
lion today, William Green, president
Of the American Federation Of La
Dor, is optimistic over the business
future Of the country.
Green now on speaking tour Of
Massachusetts, said here tltrt the
number Of unemployed in America
today is surprising.
While il is not generally known
or realized, > he said, Eve have at
the present time more than twenty
million in our army of unemployed.
In Fact we have larger pcrcentage
than Germany, France and 'Grcat
Britain at the present tmo and our
ratio per thousand is precisely the
Same as Austria.
And this situation, lie said, slould
give no cause for alarm bee;,use Of
the generally good business outlook.

SOME SPLENDID IDEAS
FOR CLUB LUNCHEONS

Do you bIong to a club that
, limits YOU to certain amounts to he
spent for food. each time You en-
tcrtain tho members? And do YOU
find, due to the fact that the high
cost of living has long been a friend
iy enemy. since the club set that
allowance, that You are forced to
do much figuring and ingenious
eontriving and explaining when en-.
terta ,aing'
If SO, YOU win be interested IA
the club breakfast This is quite
similar to club luncheons and
fulfills the same purpose. The hour
is usually twelve instead of one,
o clock, which gives 4 longer af
tcrnoon for club business or cards
Grapefruit, crcamcd sweet t.rcads,
biscuits and other things, which are
Interchangeable between breakfast
and luncheon. usually figure on the
menu. Otherwise there is really
little difference between the two
meals
Lmcheons tIat cffcr a suitable
menu with Il minimum of prepara-
tion and service are the aim Of I'll
ho>;esSas.
More ana more, lunchcons are
being served ut small tables. THIS
makes the buffet luncheon an inter
esting possibility and reduces the
necessary serving, which. III itself.
is Il boon to most lostoSScs.

most effective additions to small

Flowers, when they are to be
used. should be chosen and orjerci
the day before. With small tables,
however, flowers are really not nee
essary and sometimes only prove az
annoyance.
For Il buffet luncheon indiytlual
shrimp salads, in Jelly, make an

salad is another variation of the
customary salad which is popular.
