Editor’s note:^The following ex planation of Davidson's attitude in re gard to the breaking of athletic rela- tjons with Presbyterian college, has been received by The Chronicle. In fairness to the North Carolina institu tion it is printed, P. C.’s side of the question already having been given publication: the grim determination of the little fellow (P. C.) in his continued at tempts to whip the larger and more powerful.opponent! Davidson). With the latest outburst from P. C., how ever, our admiration has turned to distaste. For now the little fellow, who has grown a bit too rowdy in his squabbles, is refused battle by his dis gusted opponents and instead of ac cepting the refusal to fight in a spir it of fairness, the little boy goes gos siping about that at last the big fel low is afraid to fight him. Some peo ple don’t seem to know when they are licked!” “If Davidson were severing rela tions with P. C. simply because of the close score by which the Wildcats won this year, then it would seem that Davidson has delaped too long her protective tactics. Why did not Davidson break with P. C. in 1923 when the Wildcats won by the apme score, and after a much harder bat tle?” TKin^ You Should Know rape has been, long under the ben; no intelligent, rending mother will resort to such laxy, criminal tactics; see that your baby is all right inside—then outside.

Replying to charges that Davidson college was afraid to risk defeat at the hands of the Pres byterians next fall, and that the ac tion of her athletic managers was itr- consistent, Harllee Branch, Jr., of At lanta, Ga., editor The Davidsonian, in a lengthy editorial replied. — Reierring to the statement by the P. C. editor that no animosity existed between Davidson and P. C. as far as the P. C. students were concerned, he said the violence of the attack being waged by the Presbyterian college supporters and students was proof suf ficient that a strong feeling of hos tility towards Davidson was evident on the P. C. campus. “Presbyterian college is fortunate,” he declared, “in that Davidson author ities were forced to take the first step in the direction of a break. This forced move on the part of the David son managers has given P. C. the sen timental sympathy of a vast horde of newspaper readers, who, unacquaint ed with the circumstances leading to the break, are falling in line with P. C. in her pathetic appeal for more con sistent sportsmanship.

YOUR FRETFUL CHILD The peevish, frfctful baby is known to most parents. Given a new toy, or a piece of candy, he accents it for the moment—to cast it aside, and resume his ill-tempered habit. To assume that such a little one is only exercising a naturally bud dispo sition is a pitiably erroneous conclus ion. The trouble is, he is not healthy, and no amount of spanking w>U cure him. No child in perfect health' will fret, —unless his clothing may be so fitted or adjusted that it hurts jiim, or makes him uncomfortable. To punish a baby, or to accuse him of being thc possessor of a bad “temper” just be cause we didn’t know what sils him, shows how incompetent 'even some mothers may become/ In case the baby is fretful, bear in Hand Work Display Miss Allie Garvin wishes to an nounce that she has a display of hand work at her home at 106 East Ca*2- lina avenue.

By having fruit is by no means a luxury but is necessary in the up-keep of a person’s body. I find that since fruit is getting scarce in the county, the people appreciate an apple, or nuts, very much these days. You can see the smallest to the larg est of people walking the streets these |days eating apples or nuts of various As Christmas holidays draw near I see the local stores stocking farmers to mind that his digestive tract is the first thing likely to have gone wrong; see to it that his food is of the right kind, and given at proper times. * Do not over-feed, as you *re sq prone to do yourself.

For best results muscadines should be trained to a three-wire trellis and pruned each year^ The trellis should be six feet high, with the bottom wire three feet frqm the ground and the other two wires at two foot intervals above the botton wire. Three or five canes should be allowed to grow and these canes trained to a fan-shape and tied to the wire.
