PROHIBITION THEME OF CHAPEL ADDRESS S. W. Grathwell Lectures Before Students Tuesday "The liquor traffic in the United States" was the subject of an interesting and timely address delivered Tuesday morning at chapel hour by Mr. S. W. Grath well. Southern Secretary of the Inter-collegiate Prohibition As sociation. Mr. Grathwell is one of the most accomplished speak ers who has appeared in chapel this year. He is unusually well up on his subject and delivers his speech in a pleasing manner. In his address Mr. Grathwell said that the people of a year or two ago used to think of' prohibi tion as some sort of religious sect, "1 am not asking you to believe in the association at once" said Mr. Grathwell, "but I only ask for you to study the proposition." Von Moltke was quoted as say ing that Germany's greatest en emy was beer and not England. "Three glasses of liquor." con tinued the speaker. "lowers the efliciency of a man 23', ; one glass of beer 7%." The liquor traffic pays over $300.000.000 per year to our government but to offset this it costs annually 66.000 lives of mien between 21 and 70."

M. C. A. MEETING Stewardship Theme of Address By Noted Alumnus At the meeting of the Y. M. C. A. last Wednesday Mr. Robert Moorman, president of the Uni versity Alumni Association, de livered a short -but excellent ad dress on "Christian Steward ship." Mr. Moorman is at all times interested in Carolina and Carolina men, whether they be on the athletic field, in the liter ary societies, or in the Y. M. C. A. He began by showing that we are God's creatures His stew ards, and that as His stewards we owe it to Him as well as to ourselves to make the most of our talents. The parable of the "Talents" was used to ilustrate the absurdity of not developing the gifts we have. no matter how small and insignificant they seem. "it is our duty as good stewards" he said, "to develop our talents to the fullest extent." "Yet there are men present who could play football but (lid not: there are men present who could play baseball but (lid not, basketball but did not.''
