University professors retiring
from active duty this year are
to be guests of honor at the
alumni luncheon Monday. They
will sit together at a table all
their own, and complimentary
attention will be paid to them.
One of these ancient gentle
men, whom | happened to meet
on the street yesterday, said to
me that the plan reminded him
of what the Germans call Henk-
ers MGlhzeit, meaning hang
mans meal; that is, the meal
served by the hangman to the
victim just before an execution.
1t seems that part of the proce-
dure on such an occasion il to
give the victim the privilege of
choosing what he will have to
eat. The professor told me the
story of certain man who,
when he was hidden to make his
choice, said that he would take
fresh Strawberries. But this is
December said the hangman,
"and there won't be any fresh
Strawberries till June" The

People Are TO
Vote Tomorrow
On Bond Issues

Tomorrow, Saturday, June a,
is the day for voting on the
bond issue of $25, 100000 for
school buildings and the bond
issue of $2OO,OOO,OOO for rural
roads.
There are two polling places
in Chapel Hill: one, for the
north precinct, at the Town
Hall; the other, for the south
precinct, at the elementary
school.
The voting period is from
$50 Am. to $50 Pm.
The two bond issue PROPOSE
tions are separated on the bal
lot so that you can vote for both
issues, or against both, or for
one and against the other. In
the case of each proposition you
put a crossmark in a square OPP
poSite FOR or IN a square 0ppO-
site AGAINST.
Very little opposition to the
bond issue for school buildings
has developed, and the general
expectation is that it will be
approved by a decisive major
ity.
But there has been a spirited
controversy over the proposed
roao bonds, and the indications
are for a good-sized vote against
them. However, when you hear
practiced political observers dis
cuss the subject you get the I'M
preston that, if they had to risk
their money on the outcome,
they would bet on the uonds'
being approved.
The newspapers of the State
are split on the question.
In general, sAe main strength
u the oppOsitiJg SENS 10 be
in the cities and towns, while
the yes side is strongest on the
farms. Naturally rural people
want more and better rural
roads, and SO they lend a sym
. pathetic ear to the assurances
of Governor Scott and his fol-
lowers that the best way for the
State to get these rural roads is
by means of a big bond issue.

away the favor. Arece thinks
that many people who insist they
don't like mushrooms are preju-
diced because they don't prepare
them correctly. They cook them
to death. Low heat, quick cook
