Three Years of College Work Will Be
Requirement Henceforth

The question that caused more
discussion than any other at the
University trustees meeting
Tuesday was whether or not
three years of college work, in
stead Of two as at the present,
should be required for admission
to the law school. President
Graham supported Dean Nc
Cormick in advocating the
change.
The President said that it
would enable the University to
maintain its rank with the coun-
try's leading law schools, and
that not more than one tenth
of the students would have been
affected if the rule had been in
effect this year. Senator Morri-
son led the opposition to the
resolution on the ground that it
would work a hardship on poor
students.
The resolution was adopted
with the proviso that exception
be made in the case of capable
and meritorious students who
could not meet the requirement.

Bird Life in Chapel Hill
No. II
Eugene p Odun June II, 1881 Colt NJ Coker

Among the many visitors tc my
feeding station four summers ago
tl92S) was a female summer tanager.
Though not as beautiful as her gaudy.
red mate, she was a neat bird dressed
in a pleasing shade Of lemon-yellow
and she had a friendly expression on
her face unlike that Of any other
tanagdr about the house She and
her mate nested in an oak across the
road, and after the young had left
the nest they often brought them to
the feeding station. BY the end of
the summer the female tanager had
become very tame allowing as to APP
proach within a few feet of her.
When the next spring rolled ayound
1929 | had forgotten all about the
tame tanager until one day she ap-
peared at the feeding station on the
back steps She had survived the trip
TO Central America, distance of
about one thousand miles, and was
as tame as when she left six months
before Within a week | had induced
her to eat from my hand; for the
rest of the summer she fed ~~freely
from the hands of all the family; and
again she raised a brood near the
back door
The next spring 1880 | did not
expect her back, but about May first
She returned She became so tame
that summer that she actually APP
peared to be spoiled. She did not like
white bread but demanded whole
wheat or corn bread If the bread
was too dry for her she would hop
fron4~saly hand and wait until | wet
it for her. One of her favorite foods
was eggs, either fried, boiled, or
scrambled. One morning | took my
breakfast plate out ON the back steps;
the tanager came, accepted my invi-
tation, and hoped down on the plate.
After hopping about among the egg
and bacon, she filled her bill with egg
and flew OF to her nest tull or young.
The mother tanager, as we called
her, had hard luck with her first nest
that year; it was destroyed, evidently
by a cat In spite of the lateness Of
the season, however, she built another
nest and raised brood.
scarcely imagined that she would
survive the dangers Of the migration
and return this spring. April and
May passed and | had given up all
hope Of her return, but ON May 31st
reached home just in time to see
her feeding from my mothers hand
Why she was delayed | don't know,
but she is back again and as tame
as ever.

To End aCOugh
In aHurry, Mix
This at Home

To end a stubborn cough quickly, it
is important to soothe and heal the in
famed membranes, get rid of the germs
and also to aid the system inwardly to
help throw off the trouble.
For these purposes, here is a home
made medicine, far better than anything
you could buy at times the cost. From
any druggist, get 21a ounces of Pinex.
Pour this into pint bottle, and add
plain granulated sugar syrup or strained
honey to fill up the pint. This takes
but a moment, and makes a remedy so
effective that you will never do with
out, once you have used it. Keeps per-
fectly, and children like it.
This simple remedy does three neces-
sary things. First, it loosens the germ
laden phlegm. Second, it soothes away
the Inflammation. Third, it is absorbed
into the blood, where it acts directly
on the bronchial tubes. This explains
why it brings such quick relief, even
in the obstinate bronchial coughs
which follow cold epidemics.
Pinex is a highly concentrated COM
pound of genuine Norway Pine, con-
tanning the active agent of creOsote, in
a refined. palatable form, and known
as one of the greatest healing agents
for severe coughs, chest colds and
bronchial troubles.
Do not accept a substitute for Pinex.
Il is guaranteed to give prompt relief
Of money refunded.

.GIGLI GIVES
INSPIRED
CONCERT

The general run Of concert
goers should feel grateful to Mrs.
Hoover for attending so many of
the seasons music attractions,
for invariably, with The First
Lady present, the artists give "in-
spired" performances. Or SO, at
least, it seemed yesterday when
Ben1amino Gigli sang at Consti-
tuition Hall.
The distinguished Metropolitan
tenor was never in better voice
and generously responded to the
continual demand for encores.
In fact, he came back so many
times that once, to his dismay,
he found himself ready to sing
without his accompanies.
The program revealed the full
range of Gigl's art, from the lul-
laby-like "Caro Mic Ben," of Han
del, in the opening group Of Sc
lections, to the magnificent aria
20 Paradise" the concluding
number.
A group of Neapolitan songs,
one of which "Vurria, was conf
posed by his accompanist, Miguel
Sandoval, were relisned by the
audience which insisted on more
of the same variety.
Respighi's "Nebbie," De Cres-
cenzo's "Balnquita," as we'll as
the popular "Riddi Pagliacci," i"
which was given as an encore,
brought out the true beauty Of
the tenor's tones.
Sharing the applause with Gigli
was Miss Kathryn Newman, color
atura soprano. She has a very
pleasing voice and delightful stage
presence. Her rendition Of Beau
tiful Blue Danube showed the
artist at her best.
