William Allen White
Kansan Editor and Author Speaks
Here Friday Saturday, and Sunday

William Allen White of Kan
sas is coming to Chapel Hill to
deliver the We'll lectures to-
morrow friday, Saturday, and
Sunday evenings in Memorial
Hall. The hour is $3.50 P. M.
The title of the series, as Mr..
White sends it on ahead, is 'The
Cycle of Cathay." Even the
erudite professors in the Uni
versity, at least those who
have been interviewed on the
subject, confess that they don't
know exactly what this line
means; but fortunately the
subtitle, "A Study of Present
Day American Social Problems"
is more easily understood.
William Allen White was
born in Emporia, Kansas, 81
years ago. He has lived there
all his life, and for the last 80
years has been the editor Of the
Emporia Gazette. BY his writ
ings and his activity in the Pro-
gressive campaign of 1912 and
other national movements, he
has made Emporia famous. In
a magazine article several years
ago, entitled "Emporia and New
York." he told how much bet
ter he liked life in the Kansas
town than in the big city.
Among his books are 'The
Court of Boyville," "In Our
Town." "A Certain Rich Man,"
'The Old Order Changeth,"
Goods Puppets" and "The
Martial Adventures of Henry
and Me-" His biography of
Woodrow Wilson appeared a few
months ago. He has written
scores of articles and stories
for the leading magazines of the
country.
Nominally a Republican, Mr..
White has shown an enthusi-
asm for kicking over the traces
whenever a good opportunity
offered. He Joined in with
Roosevelt in 1912 and stuck with
him all through. The Demo-
cratic administration appointed
him a delegate to the Russian
conference at Prinkipo after the
World War. In the campaign
last fall he ran for governor of
Kansas on an independent anti
Ku Klux ticket, but was defeat
ed by the regular Republican
candidate.
He is a trustee of the Rookie
feller Foundation and the Wood
row Wilson Foundation, and is
a member of the American In
stitute of Arts. and Letters.

TAKE DOWN SIGNS,
SAY LAND OWNERS
They Are Actively Cooperating
in Movement to Beautify
Highway
DURHAM CLUBwOMEN AID

The owners Of land along the
Chapel Hill-Durham highway
are showing a keen interest in
the plan to beautify the high
way by the removal Of adver-
tising signs and are giving ac-
tive aid to the improvement.
Jack Sparrow, who holds land
on both sides of the road near
the one-mile bridge, has told
the joint committee of the Com
munity Club and the Daughters
of the Confederacy that they
may clear all his land of signs.
One big board, however, on the
right hand side as one goes to
Durham, will remain a. little
while until the owner can get it
out Of the way. Mr.. Sparrow
leased the space for this to a
merchant but will not renew
the lease.
All the owners out to the Dur
ham county line have agreed to
have the signs removed from
their land, and in a few days
they are going to have a meet
ing at the home of Mrs. Charles
Martindale to talk over plans
for planting trees.
The Daughters of the Confed-
eracy and the Community Club
have offered a prize of $40 to
the owner who makes the great
est improvement in the appear
ance Of roadside land, in the
Orange county stretch, in the
next year. The civics depart
ment of the Woman's Club Of
Durham has offered a prize Of
$25 for the greatest improve
ment along the eight miles of
the highway in Durham county.
Many of the owners of land in
Durham county have already
made known their purpose to
remove signs from their prop
erty.
The Chapel Hill committee
that is in charge of the beauti-
fication movement is composed
of Mrs. Bernard, Mrs. Booker,
and Mrs. Coker for the U. D. c.,
and Mrs. Mangum and Mrs.
Dey for the Community Club.
The Boy Scouts are to meet
this week, and it will be pro-
posed to them that they go out
along the road and take down
signs where the removal has
been authorized by the land
owners. Therefore it may be
that the boys will be seen en-
gagged in this enterprise within
the next few days.
News came to Mrs. Bernard
this week that the largest sign
board along the road, the one
at the junction of the state
highway and the Durham coun-
ty concrete road, about three
miles this side of Durham, was
to be ordered down by the
State Highway Commission.
This is because the sign obscures
the view of one of these roads
from the other and hence con-
stitutes a danger to travellers.

Mr.. Willard critized the custom of

the views of the President" instead
of quoting Mr.. Coolidge himself. On
one occasion, he continued, you will
