CAMPUSGRAMS. Mr. F. A. McLeod has returned from Chester, where he spent Sun day with his brother, Rev. McLeod. * * * We are sorry :to hear that Mr. Dwight Hughes and Mr. "Tack" Townsend are -framing up a trip to Norway (not South Carolina, but the real thing) for quite a spell. A case of unrequited love seems to be at the bottom of the affair. We hope that the "dope" is only "bull" and the trip will only be a "flim-flam." * * * There is a young man named Hughes, Who is subject to terrible blues, Because slie left by rail For dear Allendale, After saying she did not Dwight choose. So just the day before yesterday, Hughes, in his eccentrical way Said: "To deuce with the dame, For I will win fame In the snows of frozen Norway. Then he summoned his old friend, "Tack," "Say, pal, you can't on me go back; CI Go buy snow shoes, *3 And plenty of booze, For money, we do not lack." * * * Mitchell (at dinner table): "Well, boys, I am not very hungry today, as I have just finished a lobster." Interested -Fresh: "Where, Ben David's?" Mitchell (disgustedly: "No, in zoology lab." * * * Fresh Lunney: "When .do we play Harvard ?" Blackburn: "Why, Thanksgiving day, of course. I expect to star in that game. What's the matter, are you looney?" * * * There was a young man named Mc Leod, Who wore a new suit, venr*y loud, But once as her guest, She called him a mess, And now the young gent's not so proud. * * * Thanksgiving day will soon be here, Almost the gladdest of the year, And many a boy and many a dame Will go to Charleston to see the gam e. Boys, it will 'be great to go to the ball, But it will be hell to eat turkey at Steward's IHall. After we've tried to eat, And hungrily leave our seat With many an oath, Then we in all confusion Come .to the conclusion That .the turkey was an illusi'on At Steward's IHall. Then, with a hungry stride, And counterfeited pride We walk away. By our stomachs that yearn We swear never to return Tro eat the substitute A t Stewnardl's H allt The Work of the University Being Mad Known to the People of the State. There was once a time when the scope of the work of the University had its boundary within the four walls of the campus. This is no longer the condition. Fvery effort is being made 'by the faculty and students to have the University of South Carolina do the work for which it was founded, namely, that of service to every individual in the State. This is being accomplished in several ways; such as night classes, public lectures, correspond ence courses, and the sending of professors throughout the State to lecture wherever .they are invited. The people of the State are anx ious to know what is going on at Carolina. A movement has recently been launched by which our people may know what we are doing here at the University. This is the plan of having letters from the college written to the county papers. Under the guidance of Dr. Green, several men, representing almost every county in the State, write weekly, semi-monlthliy or monthly letters to their home papers. These letters state the number of students from their county, the growth of the college, the different mnovemients that are being put on foot here for the upbuilding of citizenship, and such other news as is available from timle to time. Some of tile letters have already been published. They are both interesting and instructive. If there is a county in the State that has at least ole student in col lege, let that student see that one of these letters is sent to his county paper. Dr. Green will be glad to talk ov'er the plan vith any student who will take up tile work. He will be in Flinn Hall at 2:45 every Fri day afternoon. See him and make it a point to have some news from the University in your county paper next week. The father of a Carolina student wrote to him this: "Dear Son: I am sending a check for $50, as you re quested. Your studies cost me a gineat deal of money." The son wrote: "That's so, father, and yet I don't study very hard." Subscribe to THE GAMr-COCK. A new place to buy your Xmas presents BLANCHARD'S ART STORE.
