quently supported in his conclusions
afterward.
Now, at this point, observe In Mr..
Good a certain characteristic no more
frequent in Congressman than in the
rest of us--n1oral courage.
Every one in Washington, during the
time when the bonus was under conSid-
Grafton, could note at dinner in the
Eevening, or about the Capitol during
the day, the half-shame- faced way in
which statesmen would confess they
didn't believe in the bonus but were
going to vote for i anyway. And, on
the other hand, there were also some
who stood up for 1t against considerable
pressure against 1t.
Either way, there was courage. Good
neither believed in 1t nor voted for 1t.
| And perhaps therein he justified those
enthusiastic speeches of farewell, all Of
them lauding his courage as well as his
capacity, which range out from Demo-
crat and Republican alike when the let
tiers rendering his resignation from his
committeeships were read on June IL,
| 1921.
Tribute Paid BY House.
Certainly in the opinion Of his col
| leagues this was no ordinary member
gress. For two hours or more Good
listened to their tributes. And when
the House adjourned its proceedings"
there were held during the recess fur
Their proceedings" Of an even more
personal nature.
Mondell of wyoming and Begg Of
Ohio. Republicans, and Garrett and
Byrns of Tennessee, Democrats. and
others, were the spokesman who pre-
sented him with beautiful silver serv-
ice on behalf of colleagues representing
delegations from every State IN the
Union.
Good left Washington then. eight
years ago. acclaimed as able in ma
tional affairs, as vigilant to defend the
public interests and the public pocket
book, as courageous to defend his genu-
Inc opinion, as square-shooter and a
loved companion.
Politician in Highest Sense.
If this be "politician"--and it was
shown in the last campaign, as it had
been demonstrated in the 1924 cam
paign, that he is in the highest sense OF
the word a "politician"-then this Is a

politician who brings TO the War De-
paftment something much greater than
the value Of a mere political appoint
ment." In the first place, there will
now be required much of that same
courage he has previously shown. For
ne will find himself, very possibly, torn
between the theories of the Army about
itself and much of the opinion obtain
ing in interested circles outside the
Army.
AS Secretary of War he Is, next to
the President, not only the chief Of all
our national defense on land, but the
head OF the administration OF the
Philippines, Of Porto Rico and the Pam
anna Canal He will have to look after
our rivers and harbors, from dredging
the Ports of New York and Baltimore
to cleaning out the debris Of the Sacra-
mento River. He will have to consider
the construction of levees along the
banks of the Mississippi River. the
Missouri, the Ohio, the Illinois, the Mo-
nongahela and so on.
Commerce Also Involved.
He will have something to say about
commerce on our waterways which in a
100000 of internal, coastWise and for
eign tonnage, involving questions as to
suitable boats, docks and the like.
When the inevitable time comes
around for the renewed discussion OF a
separate department for all Govern
ment public works, Mr.. Good again may
find himself called upon to take a def
mite position in a controversy whose
answer will displease lot Of people,
whichever way be decides 1t.
For, on the one side is the profess
sional Army, with its Corps of Engi-
neers, now In charge of all this sort OF
work for the War Department. They
offer some excellent arguments why
those Engineers (the flower of West
Points annual graduation and a picked
body of mem should continue this
work during peace time.
Probably Have to Take Stand.
And on the other hand are those
civilians who maintain that dredging
the Sacramento is not a proper educa-
ton for the construction Of trenches,
and that the entire time of the Secre-
tary of War and of the Army under him
ought to be devoted to perfecting a
fighting machine; while, further, they
maintain that economy and efficiency
Of Government operation demand that
all such work for the entire Govern
ment should be consolidated under its
own engineering chief.

And it was in that same pretty, trees

He was popularity acclaimed to that of

There is genuine friendship, CANA
raderie, between sons and father, as
there is between husband and wife. Mrs.
Good and her husband were students
together at college In Cedar Rapids,
Iowa, and it was into the law firm Of
Mrs. Goods father that the new Sec
rotary first entered after his graduation
from the Law School of the University
Of Michigan.
Michigan Law School in those days
was under the domination of the great

be called upon to take a position in this
matter before the expiration of his term
Of office. IT fate Is kind to him, however,
his decision until both the Army and
the public have had further opportunity
to get acquainted with him. If that
happens 1t IS safe to prophesy that he
will have in the future, as he had in
the past, his opponents but not his
enemies. For back of that willingness
to take position, that courage in ac-
ton of James Good, permeating 1t as it
permeates his entire being, is friendli-

And then, turning aside from the i'm

trivial, let us take a glance at the new
Secretary in his hours outside his office.

to like golf. but he seldom plays it. His

TO MOVE OUT OF
PEABODY BLDG.
School of Education viii Be
Temporarily CHARTERED in
the Former Library
SHIFT TO BE MADE SOON

The University's school of
education is to move out of Pea
body, during or not long after
the holidays, to permit the re-
construction of the interior of
the building. The school will be
quartered temporarily in the
former library, which is eventu-
ally to be taken by the music de-
partment.
After the legislature made it's
appropriations last winter the
plan was to add a new wing to
Peabody. > But the trustees
building committee found that
there was not enough money
available for a satisfactory ad-
dition, and so the decision has
been made to enlarge the base
ment and to make an entirely
new layout for the first and
second floors. Thus the Univer-
sity is following the same policy
with Peabody that it followed in
reconstructing the interior of
the South, the New West, the
Old West, the Old East, and the
New East, The outside will
stands as it is, but the inside
will be completely new.
The plans provide for more
classroom space, a large assem-
bly, room. and a much improved
arrangement of offices for the
administrative force and the
professors.
In the last few weeks the
work on the former library, to
convert it to the uses of the
music department, has gone
ahead rapidly, so that it is nearly
ready to accommodate its tenn
porary tenants. The construc-
tion of the auditorium at the
rear. where the pipe organ is to
be installed, can proceed with
out interfering with the oc-
cupants of the main building.

The Question of an Auditorium

Now that Memorial Hall has
been condemned as unsafe the
interest of the Chapel Hill COM
munity is engaged by the
question: What is the Univer-
sity going to do about an audi
torium?
A building large enough to
accommodate the entire faculty
and student body is a prime
necessity for an educational in
stitution. 1t is needed for chapel
exercises, for commencement
and other ceremonies, for
lectures and concerts, and for
all kinds of convocations. The
experience of the last few weeks
has demonstrated how embar-
RAISING can be the lack of an
adequate place of assembly.
AS one goes about the village
and the campus one hears people
express the wish that "some rich
alumnus" would step forward,
as Mr.. Kenan did with the
stadium three years ago, and
give the University an audi
torium. Maybe that will come
to mass when the seriousness of

Fast Trip to New York
Winston, Kartus and We'll Make the
$50 Miles in n Hours

P. H. Winston of Chapel Hill.
Alvin Kartus of Asheville, and
Henry Well of Goldsboro made
a fast trip to New York to see
the Army-Notre Dame football
game Saturday before last,
Travelling in Mr.. Kartus's Au-
burn car, they left Chapel Hill
at noon Friday. the day after
Thanksgiving, and arrived at
the Hotel Astor in New York at
5 o'clock the next morning.
Thus the distance of about $50
miles was covered in II hours.
Tickets for the game were
very scarce, but the three Caro-
linians were in luck. just after
breakfast Mr.. Winston met in
the lobby an old Army friend of
his who said: Here are some
box seats that the man who
ordered them can't use. Do you
want them? The law professor
did, and that afternoon he and
his two companions sat in a box
adjoining that of the Police
Commissioner opposite the
center of the field.
1--WE were able to make such
fast time to New York" said
Mr.. Winston upon his return,
because we reached the metro
politan district early in the
morning when there was hardly
any traffic on the streets and
roads. The Holland tunnel
under the Hudson was almost
deserted when we went
through"

RECEIVERS GIVE
NOTICE OF SALE
Accounts and Bills and Notes
Receivable Will Be Auc-
toned December %
RECEIvERsHIP NEARs END

An official notice from the re-
ceivers of the Chapel Hill In
surance and Realty Company,
to the effect that the concerns
office furniture and bills and
notes receivable are to be sold
at public auction, forecasts the
winding-up of the receivership.
The sale will be held at the post
office door in Chapel Hill Mon
day, December %, at IL o'clock
noon.
The notice, signed by w. S.
Robertson, |. w. Pritchard, and
M. E. Hogan, says that pursuant
to a judgment made by Judge
E. H. Cranmer, the receivers
will sell at public auction, for
cash, accounts receivable
amounting to approximately
$4,000, and bills and notes re-
ceivable amounting to approx
mately $4,000, and a quantity
of office furniture and fixtures,
and one Dodge automobile. A
list of said bills, notes, and ac-
counts receivable and said per-
sonal property may be inspected
at the office of the Chapel Hill
Insurance and Realty Company"
Nobody can make even an APP
proximate estimate Of the sum
that will be realized from the
sale, but it is not expected to be
considerable. For, the receivers
have been engaged in diligent eff
forts, for many months, to col
lect all moneys due the company,
and they have cleared up most OF
the receivables that are classi-
fled as good"
There are many pieces of real
estate which have been sold at
auction but which have not yet
been paid for by the highest
bidders. This failure to pay up
has caused delay in closing up
the receivership. Attorneys are
now pressing the bidders for
payment, and it is hoped that
some time in January the court
may be able to give the re-
ceivers their discharge.
Some of the real estate, which
could not be sold for as much as
it was mortgaged for, will be
turned over to the mortgage
holders.

Village Is Uncertain as to Just What
His Name Will Be

A son was born to Mr.. and

in Watts hospital. He is named
Thomas J. Wilson for his grand
father, the registrar, and his
father, the French professor.
The question whether he is to
be called Thomas j., ~, or
simply Thomas j. or Thomas,
lis a question over which the viii
lage is seething with excitement.
The family is reported to be
divided; some members favor
the trailing Roman numerals
and others-including, it is said,
the father-want young Tommy
to start a new series. The
registrar, the ruling patriarch
of the tribe, was sought yester-
day in the hope that he might
give the final decision, bat he
was out of town.
This newspaper hopes to quiet
the popular unrest with a de-
finite announcement about The

the situation is thoroughly
realized by the alumni.
If such a gift is not forth
coming, it seems likely that the
University may ask the legisla-
ture for an appropriation for the
erection of an auditorium. The
general understanding has been
that the University's most ur-
gent need was for a physical
education building; and perhaps
the President and trustees may
remain of the opinion that that
should come first.
