The opening exercises of the fif- ty-third session of the College re- vealed an attendance far in ad- vance of the most sanguine expec- tations of those who have been car- rying on the campaign for new stu- dents during the summer that has just passed. While no official an- nouncement lias been made in re- gard to the number that have en- tered the h'reshmau class, it was plain to a careful observer that al- most two hundred new men were in attendance. Eight o'clock is considered an early hour for college students to rise, but Wednesday morning a new spirit seemed to be stirring on the campus and the majority of the newly arrived students were up and about an hour before the time for breakfast. As soon as the morn- ing meal had been finished large crowds of men could be seen gath- ering around the steps in front of Craven Memorial Hall, and the hual stroke of the new bell, at 8 :45, practically every man who was on the campus to enter col- lege was in the vicinity of the hall. The members of the Senior class were congregated about the foot of the flagpole, from which was to float soon the banner of the class of 1912. Promptly at the stroke of nine, th« new flag was seen rising above the beads of the members of the Senior class pressing close around the base of the staff on which their flag was to hang. With uncovered heads the assembled crowd watch- ed the square of bunting until Mr. F. S. Bennett, president of the class, had drawn it to the top of the pole, and made it fast there; then the boys gave with lusty vig- or the yell of the class: "llickety, hiekety, hi! hi! Ifackety, haekety, mi! mi! T-r-i-n-i-t-y — twelve — twelve twelve!" This ceremony, one that has been carried out every fall at Trin- ity College, within the memory of the present generation of students, completed, the students and visit- ors poured into the Memorial Hall. The number was so large that it almost filled the big audito- rium, whicli has a seating capacity of over twelve hundred. After an opening hymn was sung by all present, President Few introduced Rev. J. 1). Kimdy, of Elizabeth City, who conducted the devotion- al exercises, consisting of the read- ing of a passage from the Bible and a short prayer. Dr. Few then presented to the audience, three of the pastors of ihe city who were present, Rev. M. Bradshaw, Rev. E. R. Leyburn, and Rev. R. C. Craven, all of whom made short talks welcoming the students and inviting them to attend the churches of the city. After calling attention of those present to the return of Dr. W. H. Glasson, of the Chair of Political Economy, and expressing the pleasure of the college community at having Dr. Glasson back in his old place again, Dr, Few spoke of the new members of the faculty, Judge Crawford Biggs who will bold a professorship in the Law Department, and Dr. F. N. Par- ker, professor of Biblical Litera- ture. He said the college was pe culiarly gratified to present to its students two such men a and considered itself fortunate to have them among its teachers. Professor VV. W. Peele, the new headmaster of Trinity Park School, was then introduced. He made a short announcement for the benefit of the Park school stu- dents present. After his official announcement, Dr. Few proceeded to make a short address to the students, welcoming them back, and giving some sound advice for their guidance during the year. He spoke in, substance as follows: I welcome to this place return- ing students and those who enter now upon a new chapter in their lives. I hope that this year may be filled with success and happi ness for you all. We have been busy all summer with preparations for the opening, but still some of the buildings and the improvements are incompleted. When so much has been done, I know that you will be patient with what is not done. I bespeak the earnest and active co-operation of every man among you iu an, effort to take care of all this property. Lei's at once make that a part of the Trinity ideal. From all thoughtful and sincere men among you, and especially from those who live in the new dormitory, I should be glad to have suggestions as to the ways in which the next dormitory may be improved, and at any time I am glad to get sug- gestions from men who are inter- ested in the welfare of the commu- nity. We are doing our level best to make and keep this in every way a wholesome place for men to live anil grow, wholesome morally, in- tellectually, physically. The buildings are erected with a view lo encouraging economy. We want comfort and health, but complete freedom from luxury and idleness. Take care of yonr father's money and your own time and character. And while here be a student, a do- cile child of knowledge. Become familiar with the every experience of the, race in order that you may live wisely your own- human life. Vou have but one chance at it. Use it! The remainder of the morning, after the conclusion of the chapel •exercises, was taken up by the ma- triculation of the members of the three upper classes and the appear- ance of the new men before the committee on admission for classi- fication.

The first • meeting of the year of the Young Men's- Christian As- sociation was held Sunday after- noon in the Y. M. C. A. hall in the east wing of the Epworth building. The meeting was a most enthusiastic one indeed, and was attended by a large number of new men as well as the usual percent- age of old men. The exercises be- ginning with a song and a prayer, were conducted by Mr. E. J. Har- bison, president of the college branch of the Y. M. -C. A In a few well chosen words, Mr. Harbison welcomed all the new men to the meeting, and made a very enthusiastic talk in the inter- est of securing members. President W. P. Few was then introduced and spoke for a few minutes on the necessity of Y. M. C. A. work. He said that the col- ;e had been planning great .ngs for the Y. M 0. A. here, and that he hoped and had every reason to believe that the plans would materialize within the very near future. It was generally un- derstood by his hearers that Dr. Few had reference to the new hall for the association which "-ill »• provided in the new administra- tive building now Hearing comple- tion. Dean W. I. Cranford began his remarks by saying that he wanted more and more in Trinity College the quality of self govern- ment. "Every man knows," he said, "and judges for himself that the sanest and wisest thing for him to do during his stay here is to ally himself with the cause of right- eousness in the form of t he Young Men's Christian Association, The best thing he can do during his four years of college life is to stand firm on the faith with which left his Christian home. Allow no influence in college, or any- where else to swerve you from the conviction to stand for what you think is right." Dr. Cranford's remarks were to the point and im- all with the importance of Y. M C. A. work. The talk of Dr. Franklin X. Parker, the new professor of Bib- lical literature, was his first ap- pearance before a meeting of the association, and his words were listened to with the greatest inter- est by all the men who heard him. He said that there was a great op- portunity in Trinity College for the making of manhood. "There are millions in this world," he said "who would give worlds to be where you are, there are millions in perdition who would give ten thousand worlds to sit where you sit, and to have the same opportun- tunity that you have." Dr. Park- er spoke in convincing terms, and made a strong impression upon the minds of his hearers. He is that kind of a man who, among col- umn, is called a "deep man," and he is destined to fill a most im- portant place in the Christian life of Trinity College. No actual canvas for members STUDENT LIFE Committee Meets and Takes Act General Matters. a\t four o'clock Tuesday noon the student life committee of the college met in Ihe Philosophy room wilh representatives from most of the organizations in col- lege present. The principal topics for discussion were the practic- ability of taking a census of the students in regard to the number of hours spent in the preparation of class room work, the problem of increasing the interest in the work of the-literary societies, and the mathH"kii cheating on examina- tions. It was brought out that by ascer- taining the number of hours the average student puts into prepar- ing his lessons for recitation, it would be possible for each profes- sor to regulate his work in more harmony with that of other-de- partments, a'nd so bring up the general average of study. In regard to the debating and literary society interests, a com- mittee was appointed to draw up a memorial to he presented tn the Debate Council expressing the opinion' thai il would be better for this college to secure some debat- ing contests with colleges from the sorrounding territory. It was also wn that the new society balls, when completed would add largely to the zest wilh which students en- ter into the literary work. The Student Life Committee is a body organized last year. It is composed of three members of the faculty, Professors Rrooks, Cran- ford and Wilson, and representa- tives from every organization on the campus that has any social fea- tures at all.

"Sunset and evening bell, And after that the dark"

I II East Dormitory.

From the rising up of the sun unto the going down of Ihe same it is hot on Trinity campus—and elsewhere.

"There have been tears and ach­ing hearts for thee," O freshman, Forget them not in the pleasures of the first week in college.

If walking in the road were for­bidden the students as is walking on the grass an impetus might be given to the aeroplane indus­try.

There was a sound of revelry by night—and the people of Dur­ham knew that the students of Trinity College bud returned to the city.

From the number of gentlemen displaying their wares tbe first few nights of the year the freshman comes to think his room is a verit­able house of representatives.

"Last noon held them full of lusty life,

Last eve in beauty's circle, proudly gay,

The midnight brought the signal sound of strife,

The morn"—

But hazing has long been ban­ished from Trini ty College. No freshman should fear to complete tbe stanza.

There are men on Trinity cam­pus who have never joined a lit­erary society. There are men on the campus who have never allied themselves with any organization, good or bad, and who live a life to themselves without the responsi­bilities thai: membership in clubs brings. The words of such men lend, whenever heard, to discour­s e incii from joining literary so­cieties.

It is not the intention of the

Ciuonicle to read these men a lec­t u r e ; the matter of. joining a so­ciety is purely optional and no power should be set that would make it compulsory. Neither doe; tile i 'hronicle desire to set itself up as an adviser par excellence, to the members of tbe Freshman class. h is the purpose of this paper, however, to express the opinion llial the advice of any man who would prevent a new student from joining a literary society should pass for nothing, and that any slighting remarks made upon the work of the societies should be re­garded as reflecting ou the man who makes them, rather than on the object at which they were di­rected.

The literary societies are not perfect. But they stand for some­thing in college and give a person practice in an art that once flour­ished on Southern soil,;,,but has long since begun to pass away, .Every college man should become a'member of the literary societies. I t should be as much a matter of duty as joining the Y. i l . C. A. The halls of the organizations ought to be over-run Saturday night.

A college is a place of changing iterations. Within the course of

four years a complete alteration takes place in the personnel of the students who make up the popula­tion of a college community. Yet in some indefinable manner then-are always forms and customs that remain despite the passing classes and.tradit ions that are recogniz­able everywhere as characteristic of various colleges. Trinity is a comparatively new college, but it

old enough to possess such tra­ditions, some of them possibly rel­ics of the days when the college was located at the old spot in Ran­dolph County, back in the days be­fore 1892. To the Trinity man

;e heritages from former gen­erations of college men are exceed­ingly dear. They form the center of the love entertained for the col­lege by its students. They consti­tute the real college spirit. With­out feeling their weight no ont can truly be called a son of Trin-

ity-As a new class comes in to take

their places in the college com­munity, the leaven of these tradi­tions begins again to do its work upon their minds, affecting them in a way known only to those who experience it. I t were well for those who are just entering upon their college course to heed care­fully the several little things that differentiate this college from oth­ers. There may be, in other col-

ia forms of almost identically same nature, but in certain

small particulars ours are differ­ent and these differences, tho they may seem insignificant to-day will be fondly remembered in tbe fu­ture as characteristics of Trinity. Such occurrences as the raising of the flag by the senior class on the opening day of each college year, the annual Y. ,M. C. A. reception and the custom of raising one's hat when passing a professor while they may have almost their exact counterpart in other institutions still are marked by their own pe-ciiliarilies which make them espec­ially dear to Trinity men. Such things form the life of a college thai i- lived over in after years.
