Baldwin is a chemist by profession and a clam by occupation. He seems cold, haughty and reserved, but such is not the case, because when he opens up his heart to you he has the soothing efTect of a hot-water bag. He has a soft pianissimo voice, which he seldom uses, but wlien he does separate himself from his vocabulary, wisdom flows forth. He has re- cently devised a method of using alcohol for street lighting jnirposes. which he will soon put in operation in Raleigh. This will he a great boon to the citizens and students, because when they sutTer from thirst all they will have to do is to arm themselves with a ean-opener, a straw, a pair of pole-climbers, then go on a still hunt for a lamp-post. 26
