Mr. Benet, Who is Well Known and Admired by Carolina Students, Spoke on the Choosing of Vocations. Mr. Christie Benet, known and admired by every Carolina man, was the speaker Wednesday night at the weekly meeting of tie Y.. M. C. A. in Flinn hall. Mr. Benet is a Carolina man, though Virginia would like to share the honor, and his deeds of valor on the gridiron have become part of the history of the University. His kindness in addressing the Y. M. C. A. but goes to illustrate his attitude toward aught that pertains to the welfare of his alma mater. The cheerful ness with which each year he helps to coach Carolina's football team has won for him the gratitude of every member of the student body. After expressing his pleasure at being able to talk to a body of Uni versity men, he said that the great est dangeri in life is not having high and clean ideals. Every individual should erect for himself a standard of living; should take from his ac, quaintances, or create in his imagi nation, a character worthy of emu lation and bend all his efforts to the attainment of this ideal. These standards should be high-the in spiration of all our achievements, for the stream of life can rise no higher than its fountain. MOOT COURT. A very interesting case-State vs. John Burns-was tried Wednes clay night before his Hionor, Pro fessor E. M. Rucker, and resulted in a mistrial, the jury being unable to agree upon a verdict. The prosecution was represented by Messrs. M. A. Shuler and J. B. Murphy, and the defense by Messrs. L. K. Jennings and V. C. McClain. The facts in the case were very interesting, the State making out a strong case of circumstantial evi dence; not, however, by such a pre ponderance of the testimony that no reasonab)le doubt could be left in the mind of the jury, as the ver dlict of a mistrial indicated. It w~as gratifying to note the attendance on this occasion, and an invitation is extended to all who will to be out next Wednesday night. Messrs. Goggans and Gaston will then rep resent the plaintiff, and Messrs. Johnson and Alexander the defend ant. Mr. Robert M.
