Ve use the word annual advisedly, for the trip of last year set a precedent, and we hope each stcccclinlg year will see it followed. The trip this year is to ex tend only through Virginia, but it is well arranged and includes gaies with some of the strongest colleges in the South. Manager Graydon has been untiring in his efforts to make all ar rangements as nearly perfect as possi ble, and all indications point to a most successfful week. This custom of giving the men a long trip outside the State, is a good one in every respect. The varsit\ men enjoy it and deserve it for the work they do. Apart from this, however, it has a very broad signifi calice, because it spreads the reputa tionl of the University in the best pos sible way. Athletics has long been recognized as the most effective adver tising agency, and particularly does it appeal to the younger generation-the boys who expect to go to college next year and the year after. There is no way of reaching them quite so well as through the knowledge they get of a college from its baseball and football successes. In another sense, too, it spreads flic fame of the University. We become of some consequence even in the North when wve send out a team that can show superiority in a very effective way. Thme trip) of last year has already brought about many good results. WVe have a better team than ever before, and p)ossibly some of this credlit is due to the good record made last season. At any rate, let us hope for a con tinuiation of this practice, and that each year the trip will be made as ex tensive as possible. BATTLESHIP WEEK. All eyes this' week have been ceni tered on Charleston and the events taking p)lace there have been of intense interest throughotut the State. The visit of the battlee,hip "South (Cen.. lina" has not been a local happening, but a matter attracting the attention of every class of citizems. The students of the University have been especially interested. A great many; including the team, who were in Charleston on Saturday of last week, saw the big fighter, and a few stayed over for the exercises of Monday and Tuesday. The "South Carolina" is one of the newest and best of the modern dread naughts being built for the navy, and came to her home waters to re ceive from the State the gift of a splend,id silver service, and from the women of the State, the flag of South Carolina. The occasion was a most auspicious one in every respect. It showed that time had healed the scars made by the "Late Unpleasantness," and that patri otism abounded in South Carolina of as high an order as could be found anywhere else inl the country. At the same time the compliment paid the State by the national government in naming the vessel, was quite consider able. The recognition paid South Carolina showed that she was no longer, as she had been up to a few years ago, viewe(l by Congress in tle light of a conquered province, but as one of the greatest States in the Union, and among the first who were entitled to recognition. ABOUT PAYING YOUR DEBTS. TiE Gam:coc, like many of its readers, is very much in need of money. And like a great many more of them, if only it could collect the money owing it, the bird's condition would be not only respectable, but flourishing. The corporation has at least sixty dollars on the campus due for subscriptions, which have never been paid, and this moncy is absolutely necessary to meet the obligations ill curred every week. Debts of this kind, like all others, must be paid some (lay, so wly not forestall the sad occa sion by getting them. off now, and at the same time earn the lasting grati tude of the much-harassed business manager ? Debts at any time are unpleasant, and \we beg pardon ior mentioning so insidious a subject, but unless the thought of them comes voluntarily, one is apt to have a remembrance, like greatness on the favored few, thrust upon one. H.Tence, we ask that you give yourselves the pleasure of that self-righteous glow, which overspreads the countenance when a virtuous deed like debt-paying is indulged in, and that at the same time you forestall the sad (lay of wvhich a modern p)oet speaks so feelingly "Thle mlelanlcholy (lays have comle, The saddest of the year, All the bills that I let run, Conme hiomie to father dear."
