Courses will be offered at the It has been announced that Chapel Hill and the University will have an automatic telephone system, which will probably 'be ready for use before Christmas.

The switchboard and other equipment for the new system have already been ordered. The inefficiency of the present system has given considerable annoyance and dissatisfaction for quite awhile, and the announcement that a modern, efficient system is to be installed as soon as preparations are completed is welcomed by all the patrons of the telephone company, which is owned and operated by the University Consolidated Ser-ice Plants. When the new installation is completed there will be no trouble about getting connections promptly. Of course the change will bring some increase in the rates. The second number of the summer attractions will be given this evening in Memorial Hall at 8:30 o'clock when Karl Jansen, the Swedish humorist and entertainer, will give an entertainment covering a broad field in the line of education and amusement.

Those who have purchased season tickets will be admitted without further charge. Season tickets for the three remain University of North Caro lina School of Pharmacy, who has just returned from the east coaching school both in the theory and the practice of the coaching of football, basketball, ing attractions may be bought ties of the Consolidated Service Plants. Anybody who has used a telephone in Durham within the last year or so knows how the automatic device works. With each instrument thereMs a little dial, and simply by turning this the subscriber gets into connection with whomever he wants to call. One of the conditions laid down by the aldermen, and agreed to by the Consolidated Service Plants, is that a thoroughly efficent police alarm and fire alarm arrangement shall be maintained at no cost to the town.

The mechanism is to be so adjusted that the person who wants (to turn in a fire alarm may not only set off the siren at fire headquarters but may also ring the telephones at the homes of several of the firemen. And the police may be called from ariytelephone instrument in the village. The regular switchboard operator will be unnecessary when the automatic system is but there will be a. service man on duty to look out for repairs and attend to, either duties of an emergency character. It is likely that additional wirea will be run from here to Durham and that all long distance calls will be handled by the Durham jcentral.

state is neglecting the opportunity of diversifying its crops and at the same time adding to its total farm wealth, Professor Kyser says, "for the average return from the peppermint crop exceeds that from other crops." The annual value of the peppermint crop in the United States is approximately and North Carolina's share of this is hardly, a drop in the bucket. The United States furnishes about three-fifths of the regular class work proper of the school will start at 8:00 o'clock on Tuesday morning, August 23. The football course will be stallation of an automatic' system because of the greater cost of the plant.

Last week the playing field was harrowed, the soil prepared and grass was sown. Two tons of vigoro, an extra-efficient fertilizer, were spread over the Only the central part of the arena is now planted, but the spcae around the ends and sides will soon be ready for the treatment. The grass will probably be sprouting within the jiext ten days.

The exact date on which the first football game will be played in the stadium and the structure dedicated has hot been determined. Work on the dressing and storage house at the, south end of the stadium is how progressing rapidly. It is expected that this will be completed by the first week in September.
