Vnivi-rsity <-irfles was brousht to a
close last Suiulay. TIh' small and
insignini-ant littU- srlmol known
as Kluke rniviTsily. which is lo-
cati'tl in Ihe sleepy little rross-
roads town or Rurham. N. C. was
able to float a pt-rpetuai bond issue
of $sO0,OOn at an interest rate of
\k of 1%. whieh is on a par with
the rate albiwed undi r the Vol-
steail law. The issue was bandied
by the Intiilelity Bank, and it was
largely through ihtir skillful
manipulation that the bonds were
so suceessfully distributed.
Although the sehule itself had
never been heard of outside the
county, the offieials had made for
themselves a reputation that was
as well known as Ivory Soap,
99 4-1 /100% pure, and this fact
alone assured the sale of the
bonds. r>r. Hotlon of the Eco-
nomies Department, collected the
necessary ihtta for putting through
the deal, as Charlie Barkham was
too busy correcting math papers
t.i collect these statistics.
It is interesting to consider the
many aspects as regards this vast
.sum of shekels which is to be
turned loose in this great old state
of ours. It is said that with this
addition to the regular income of
the college — which consists of the
large sums of money which are
derived from fines for too many
candlepowers, library fees, ath-
letic fees, damage fees, hospital
fees, and the many other im-i-
dental fees which the students
so willingly pay for the conven-
iences sustained — that the College
will be able to hold a position in
the state educational circles at
least on a par with A. & T. or Kit-
trell.
The campus will also be more
than doubled by the purchase of
40 acres of land adjoining the
present campus. Four new build-
ings will be erected on this new
campus, as follows: A new ken-
nel for the Society of Yellow Dogs,
a silo to represent the more pro-
gressive agricultural element of
the student body, a tent for the
many sheiks who are expected to
be attracted to the institution,
and the Warner Office Building,
which will be occupied by the
higher officials of the institution,
as Mr. Warner himself, the Rev-
erend See E. Jurgen, and Mr. W.
Allen Pyrene.
If enough money is left over, a
new member or so may be added
to the faculty, but since this con-
stitutes a very non-essential part
of the modern university, the
money will perhaps be better util-
ized in working up the grounds.
It is thought, however, that a suf-
ficient amount will be included in
the budget to cover the cost of
leaving the lights on 15 minutes
longer at night and of keeping up
a pounil or more steam pressure in
the heating plant in the month of
January.
A poverty-stricken institution
has at last been put upon a firm
financial basis. Long may the
flag discontinue to wave over our
noble campus.
