College Centennial. 1 The South Carolina college has set apart the eighth, ninth * and tenth of January, 1903, for her centenial celebration. The . general assembly chartered the South Carolina college in 1801, and her doors were thrown open . to the youth of the State on * January 10, 1805. * It has continued in successful operation until the present, ex, cept during the two last years of the war, during which time its buildings were used by the Confederate Government as a hospital. . As the aim of the college is to train a body of gentlemen in . knowledge, virtue, religion and refinement it is run entirely on the honor system and the awards and punishment of the institution are addressed to the students' sense of duty and principles of honor and shame. For this reason her educational work of one hundred years has been steadily wafting man}' of South Carolina's noblest young men to the pinnacle of success. The South Carolina college is proud of every one of her alumni and every living alumnus should 1 consider it a privilege to visit : the old college at the celebration of her one hundredth birthday. s Williamsburg has always been j famous for her educational advancement and has played a conspicuous part in the workings of this college. In the first class of only a few members she furnished one, Mr James Posteli. She furnishes one of the members of our faculty at present, Prof. George McCutchen,and for j the last few years she has surpassed many other counties in the numoer of students which she has sent to the different colleges of the State, giving Carolina a fair proportion. It is sincerely hoped that every alumnus in Williamsburg county will avail himself of the . opportunity of being- present at the centennial exercises of their beloved alma mater. The following is a list of Williamsburg's alumni: BEFORE WAR.

Both Mr Seigel and Mr Myer are artists and are masters of their work. Rag time and music of a low order J m MM M ? > i U n i M mm M Wv fi MW? AM/] cue iJLUi iix men xepeiiuiy tiuu those who went out expecting this kind were disappointed. Those, however, who wanted to hear the productions of artists got what they expected and were delighted with the performance. The work of Mr Seigel on the on the mandolin was pronounced by those who are capable of judging as masterly and Mr Meyer immensely pleased the lovers of music with his original work on the piano. The attendance was not what it should have been. The weather was not the best but was not sufficiently inclement to preclude attendance. The local management went to considerable expense without hope of reward other than giving Kingstree amusement, and for our people not to patronize shows a lack of the right spirit. A very good crowd, however, was present, and quite a number from out of town. All in all, everything passed off-to the satisfaction of v the management. ? The next attraction will be Mrs Alice Dole on December 22nd. Notice. Until further notice the oil mill ginnery will be run three days a week, Tuesdays, Thursdays an?! Saturdays. R. L. Blackman, .
