SOCIAL NOTES.
On Friday night the fourth of the
series of subscription dances being
given at Shandon by the University
German Club, was held. The weather
was just cool enough to make dancing
thoroughly enjoyable and an enthusi
astic crowd was out to enjoy the pleas
ures of the occasion. Among the fair
fems who were present, may be men
tined the following: Misses DuBose
Jones, Nan Walker, Louisa Duncan,
of Union; Katie Graham Thompson,
Elise Izlar, Ellen Hyatt, Raven Sim
kins, Beverly DuBose, Mary Wells,
and Dora Gray. In addition the usual
number of men from the University
and from town were present.
SATURDAY NiGirr DANCE.
On April 30th was held one of the
most delightful dances ever given at
the Shandon pavilion. A large num
ber of dancers were out to enjoy the
occasion, and* dancing was in order
until a few minutes of twelve, when
time was called and the dance came
to an end. Davis' orchestra furnished
the music, which was most inspiring.
The dance was chaperoned by Mrs.
Joseph K. Alston, Miss Mamie Walker
Mrs. Berkeley Bryan, Mrs. 0. E.
Thomas and Mrs. Woodrow. An un
usually large number of dancers were
present and included nearly all the
mem!bers of the younger dancing set.
THI VrFESTIVAL.
Prominent in the social life of the
University during the past week was
the Music Festival held at the Colum
bia Theatre on Wednesday and Thurs
day nights. A number of very cele
brated artists took part in the program
and a great many students took advan
tage of this opportunity of hearing
them. Quite a number of men from
the University were in the chorus, and
did good work toward making that
part of the festival a success.

An event which is being eagerly
looked forward to, is the performance
by students of the College for Women
of "Twelfth Night" in the beautiful
gardens of the college. This perform
ance takes place during the commence
ment of the college the latter part of
this month, and is always an occasion
of absorbing interest to the students
of the University.

CoMMENCEMENT, WEEK.
As is noted elsewhere in this issue,
plans for commencement week include
a very full week socially. Besides the
Junior..Senior smoker on Saturday
night, there will be a large subscription
dance at the Shandon pavilion on Fri
day night, another on Monday night,
and still another on Tresday night.
There are always a number of. smaller
affairs planned for the week and the
climax will come to commencement
with the June ball on Wednesday
night. The executive committee of
the German Club plans that this always
brilliant dance shall be the best ever
given by the club, and already plans
ned on foot towards that end.
Commencement Invitations.
An advarkoe 1,pample of the com
mencement invitations has been re
ceived, and gives every indication that
they will be among the most attractive
ever had at Carolina. The invitations
are to be in booklet form, with a photo
graph of the Library, tinted in colors
on the cover, where is also to
be found the seal of the Uni
versity, and the words, "South
Carolina - Commencement." Inside,
the invitation sheet is engraved and
on the remaining four sheets will be
printed the programme for commence
ment and the list of graduates both the
law and academic. The invitations
are being gotten out by the E. A.
Wright Co., of Philadelphia, and will
be on the campus in about two weeks.
The price of the invitations will be
two for twenty-five cents.
Junior-Senior Festivity.
As the commencement season, with
all its festivities, draws near, the col
lege men begin to plan and arrange for
a week of pleasure.
The Junior Class is "on the job," so
to speak. They are following the time
honoured custom entertaining the Sen
iors. While nothing is as yet defi
nitely arranged, it is generally known
and is whispered around the campus
that the joyous event will take place
on Saturday, June 4th.
Quite a departure from the ordinary
custom will be a smoker instead of a
banquet. On account of the smallness
of the Junior Class it is impossible for
them to tender the Seniors a banquet,
so a smoker will be the order of the
day.
A Great Game.
Slightly over a week ago, the cam
pus lovers of sport were given a rare
treat. The occasion was the meeting
of the Monte Carlo and East Rutledge
nines. The battle was a protracted
one, the palm finally going to the
Monte Carlo veterans, 13 to 9.
The game was called at the end of the
ninth inning to allow the Monte Carlo
team to catch a tran for North Caro
lina, where an extended tour has been
arranged by Manager Lee.
Very Felts-itous.
Felis sedit by a hole,
Tntente she, cum omni soul,
Predere rats.
Mice concurrerunt trans the floor,
In numero duo, tres or more
Obliti cats.
Felis saw them, oculis;
"I'll have them," inquit she, "I guess
Dum ludunt."
Tune illa crepit toward the group,
"Habeam" dixit, "good rat soup
Pingues sunt."
Mice continued all ludere,
Intenti they in ludum vere,
Gauden ter.
Tune rushed the felis into them,
Et tore them limb from limb,
Violenter.
Mures omnes, nunc be shy,
Et aurem praebe mihi
Benigne:
Sic hoc satis-"verbam sat,"
Avoid a whopping Thomas cat.
