Taylor in the Field
Becomes a Travelling Secretary for
the Alumni Association

Tyre C. Taylor, who gradu-
ated here in 1921, has taken the
post of field secretary of the Uni
versity of North Carolina Alum
nj Association.
He is going about through the
state making contact with the
local associations. His intemst
just\now is centered upon the
celebration of University Day,
the twelfth of October. Many
of the local groups are to hold
meetings then, and he is helping
with their plans.
Later he is to visit the cities,
outside the state, where Univer-
sity alumni have settled in
large numbers.
Part of his work is to increase
the circulation of the Alumni
Review.
The cost of the new field sec
retary's activities is not a bur-
den upon the general associa-
tion's regular budget. His en-
gagement was made possible
through contributions, made for
this purpose, from a few gener-
Gus alumni.

They do that which dangerous cal.

Olive Tablets bring no gripping,
pain or any disagreeable effects.
DR. F. NJ. Edwards discovered the
formula after 20 years Of practice
among patients afflicted with bowel and
