Keep Th6m Posted At Home.
The best interpreter of student life
at Carolina is TiE G.AMECOCK. if yOu
want to keep the peopIe at home pbste(d
otn what you are doing and on the Uni
versity i general, send a copy of TIE
G.ulECoCK when you write next time.
Fo!ks at home are veryi much inter
ested in what we are employing our
selves with here. They read letters
over ten times, while we scarcely read
them over after writing them, to cor
rect misspellings. They can get more
out of 'Ti .-. GAMECOCK about the news
of the campus than they can possibly
get from your letters. So get the
habit of slipping a copy of "The Bird"
ii an envelope. and a one-cent stamp
(loes the work.
Neatness.
Fellows, it seems like a small matter,
almost too insignihicant to pause U)O11,
but in your study and in your pleasure
in college life, the condition of your
room makes a difference. It is not
necessary that you should have hand
some furniture, and a lot of rugs and
curtains, although these are desirable,
but it makes all the difference in the
wvorld, whether you live in a nerat room
or one piled with eipty boxes, unused
furniture, newspapers. coal, and
clothes waiting for the'laundry agent.

THllE PIECE ThIIA ROlIERT SPOKE.
(Once there was a little boy whose
name was Robert Reece;
And every Friday afternoon he had to
speak a piece. -
So Imanly poems thus be learned, that
sooni he had a store
Of recitations in his head, and still
kept learniiig mnore.
And now this is what happened: Hle
was called upon, one week,
And totally forgot the piece he was
about to speak!
I I is brain he cudgeled. Not a word
remained within his head!
And so he spoke at random, and this is
what he saidI:
"My Beautiful, imy Beautiful, who
stan(lest proudly by,
It was the schoonier 'lIesperus'-the
breaking waves (lashed high!
Why is the Forum crow(led ? What
means this stir in Rome?
Under a spreading chestnut tree there
is no place like home !
"When Freedom from her mountain

"If you're waking, call me early, to lie

The curfew must not ring tonight !
Oh, wVoodIman, spare that tree!I
