7 PUPS BORN IN
TIE EInE HOTVF
Citizens Gather to Admire the
Progeny of the Fire Com
pany's Mascot
FULL-BLOODED PIT BULLS

Seven pups-full-blooded pit
bulls-were born last Mon
day, the first day of April,
at fire headquarters, Column
bia Street and Rosemary
lane. Their mother, Sadie,
has been the firemen's mas
cot for several months and
has been accustomed to follow
the big red engine whenever it
went out to answer alarms.
The pups were born in little
wooden closet that had been
built for the mascot a yard or
so to the rear of the engine. The
news spread about the neighbor-
hood, and the volunteer firemen
and other citizens-both those
who We're celebrating the Easter
holiday and those who had to
leave their occupations-flocked
to the fire house to inspect and
admire the newcomers. No
body who has seen a litter of
baby bull pups needs to be told
that they were worthy of ad-
miration. They were tiny,
white, squirmin', whinin, and
cunnin'.
1t so happened that two or
three hours after the birth the
firemen took the engine out. Not
to answer an alarm this time,
but to be weighed for a test of
new tires. When the mother
dog heard the motor roaring,
and knew that the sound was
preliminary to the engines
departure, she forgot all about
her pups and made a leap to-
ward the door of the closet.
She meant to go along as usual.
But the firemen, solicitous for
the health of herself and the
pups, kept her locked in. She
Whlmpered dolefuI1y until the
engine was out of hearing.

Force is Busy Pulling Stumps and Leveling
Ground for the Extension of the Golf Links

At my request the accommo-
dating Spanish professor, Stur-
gis E. Leavitt, came around
early Wednesday morning and
took me out to see the work on
the extension of the Country
Clubs golf course. We drove
out along the new Raleigh road,
stopped the car about a quarter
of mile down the hill from the
cemetery, got out, and walked
across the low-lying field on the
right of the road.
This field is part of the 25
acres which the club recently
acquired through an exchange
with ". G. C0ker. The tract
is, roughly speaking, three
sides of a rectangle, constitut-
ing three of the nine holes of the
course: the 3rd, the 4th, and the
9Th. Where the three-legged
25-acre stretch leaves the pres
ent course you drive off toward
green No. 3 beside the Raleigh
road; the next fairway runs
generally parallel to the road,
over the field; and green No. A
is near a clump of pines on the
edge of the woods; then there
is an uphill drive through what
was recently woods, but is now
a clearing, toward green No 5
on the fringe of the clubs pres
ent course.
Flowing and seeding will con-
vert the field in the valley into
a fairway; but trees have had
to be cut down on the stretches
leading to greens No. 3 and No.
5, and(the stumps are being pull

gress with it. | noticed great
quantities of cord-wood piled up
along the clearings, and the club
will swell its revenues to some
extent, by the sale of that.
The $4,000 which the club has
arranged to borrow will be
spent on preparing the ground
for these three new fairways.
Thus far only about $3.50 has
been spent, and as | look at the
cIearings, and the trees that had
been cut down and turned into
fire-wood, and the stumps that
had been uprooted, ! got the i'm
preston that whoever was di-
recting the work was making
the dollars at his disposal go a
long way.
The drainage Of the lower
parts of the tract is one prob
lem to be solved, and the COM
mitteemen in charge have
worked out the solution. The
course of each of two brooks is
to be slightly changed, and a
few small cross-ditches will be
led across the ground that now
becomes swampy in wet weather.
The work of clearing, grad
ing, plowing, seeding, and
draining will go forward
through the spring and summer
and fall, and the club hopes to
have the three new holes open
for play next year.

Including today there remain
only eight more days in which
citizens may register for the
school bond election. The reg
istration expires at sunset Sat
urday, April 13-one week
from tomorrow.
Paul Robertson is the regis
trar. He will have his books at
the school tomorrow, the 9th,
and the following Saturday the
18th, all day. In the evenings,
on weekdays, he will have them
at his home 211 East Rosemary
lane.
Citizens living within the
Chapel Hill school district must
register in order to vote, for the
law DEGREES a special registra-
tion for this election. 1t is diff
ferent from the ordinary politi-
cal election in which a citizen
may vote if he has registered
in a year past.
The voters must be citizens
of the school district, which is
not coterminous with the village.
For example, many of the peo-
pie living in the western part of
the village and some living in
the northern part are not in the
district. Generally speaking,
the village eastward from NAL
lett street is in the district. A
list of all voters in the district
is being prepared, and will be
with the registrar next week,
and anybody who is in doubt as
to whether he is entitled to vote
can find out then from the regis
trar.

A Dog Census
Town to List the Canines--and the
Automobiles at Same Time

The Chapel Hill town govern
ment will take dog census next
week. The purpose of it is to
get all dogs listed for taxation.
The annual tax is 81 for every
male and So for every female
dog.
At the same time an automo-
bile census will be taken. The
law requires that every automo-
bile owner in the village buy a
tag, bearing the words Chapel
Hill and a number, but some
citizens have failed to comply
with the law. The municipal
emissaries will go from house to
house, from one end of the viii
lage to the other. They will
start out Monday and they are
expected to complete their count
before the end of the week.
Meanwhile, every person who
has not paid his dog or auto
mobile license tax is requested
to come to the town managers
office and do so.

8 More Days of Registration
For the School Bond Election

tion, which has been-published
according to law, contains a de-
scription Of the school district,
giving the exact boundaries.
That notice may be seen at the
town managers office, Column
bia street and Rosemary lane,
or in either the March 8th or
March 18th issue of this news
paper.
The total amount of the bonds
which it is proposed to issue is
$4,000. An examination of
the schools financial records
made by l.. B. Rogerson, audi
tor, shows that if the mainten-
ance budget is kept at its pres
ent level the new bonds can be
carried without increasing the
total school levey. The bond
tax rate of II cents may be
slightly higher than it is now,
but this can be offset by a saving
in the rate of so cents for oper-
ating expenses.
OF the bonds which it is pro-
posed to issue, half (S7,500) are
for the purpose of paying the
unpaid portion of the cost of
erecting and equipping school
buildings and acquiring sites
therefor, and half ($7, 500 are
for the purpose of funding and
paying an outstanding debt of
said district created by the
trustees of the district for the
payment of the running ex-
penses of the schools of the dis
trict. (This statement of the
purposes of the issue is quoted
from the official published no
tice of the election).

VILLAGE TOHAVE
ELECTION MAY 7
Terms of Mayor Council and of
Three of the Aldermen
Expire This Year
MR.. HOWARD is REGISTRAR

This is the year, and Tuesday,
May 7, is the day, for a munich
pal election. In compliance
with the law Town Manager
Foushee is today publishing the
official announcement.
Rev. B. J. Howard is regis
trar. Those citizens who have
registered for a previous munic-
ipal election do not have to
register again. Registration be-
gins Friday, April 19, and ends
Saturday, April 27; the hours
are 9 to 5 on weekdays and 9 to
8 on the two Saturdays, April
20 and 27.
M. w. Durham and T. f.
Best will be the judges of the
election.
The officers whose terms ex-
pire, and whose successors must
be chosen, are Zeb Council,
mayor, and G. M. Braune, M. E.
Hogan, and Clyde Eubanks,
members of the board Of alder
men. 1t is highly probable that
the people Of Chapel Hill will
want these gentlemen reelected.
Under the law the filing of
a name is all the nominating
procedure that.is necessary. If
John Smith wants Tom Jones
as candidate for mayor, all he
has to do to make him a candi-
date is to submit Tom Jones 8
name to the town manager in
writing. And so also with the
aldermen. All names filed five
days before election day are put
on the official ballot; but there
must be privately ~printed bal
lots for candidates who are pro-
posed within less than five days
before election day.

Chapel Hill Chaf


Summerell Chamberlain is max
ing sketches of the old houses in
Chapel Hill. Only a few of
them are left, and these may not
be here much longer. One of
the oldest, the one next to the
Episcopal church, where used to
dwell the Alexanders, the H. V.
Wilson's, the Bains, the Bullitts,
and the Caldwells, was torn
down to make way for Spencer
hall. The McCauley (later the
Lindsay house on Cameron
avenue, which was built before
the Civil War by Johnson Jones,
was bought last year by the Chi
Psi fraternity and probably has
but a short time yet to stand.
The Mallett (MacNider) house
was replaced by the post-office.
The Howell and the Daggett
houses (the latter being the pro-
perty of the University, the
Mangum house on Rosemary
lane, the Algernon Barbee house
to the west of the Episcopal
church, the Robertson house on
Columbia street-upon these
sentence has not yet been passed.
Mrs. Chamberlain's sketching
of the old houses is a labor Of
love; her grandfather, Elisha
Mitchell, was professor here
three quarters of a century ago,
and she has always cherished a
deep affection for the University
and the village. The sketches
she made for her book, Old Days
IN Chapel Hill, Ga compilation of
the letters of Mrs. COrnelia
Phillips Spencer), revealed her
talent for this form of art.
