LIVELIHOODS OF THE GRADS. What the Fellows Will . Follow When Life Takes Place of Col lege. Within two weeks the State of South Carolina will be overrun by "sweet girl graduates" and male graduates, minus the adjective. The University of South Carolina sends her sons, also, to join this army. It is interesting tQ note what these men will do when they shall have left the halls of their alma mater. It will be noticed that the pedagogical profession has claimed more followers than any other; law ranks second. Mr. R. F. Bradley, Jr., leaves on June 15, for France, where he will take up the study of French, with a view to becoming a professor of this language. Mr. L. A. Buie will next year study law at Yale University. Mr. P. K. Bowman has not yet de cided on his life work. Mr. E. N. Carns will either teach or enter the insurance business. Mr. E. D. Ellis was fortunate enough to win an appointment to West Point and will enter there at the next - session. Mr. J. B. Heyward will be back at Carolina next year, this time studying law. Mr. J. S. Hoey, whose perfect voice, gestures, and technique have made him famous as Cheer Leader, will return next year to study law. This announcement means that the department of cheering at the Univer sity will be kept up to its usual high standard. Mr. H. G. Officer will be a Y. M. C. A. secretary in Pittsburg. Mr. Benj. T. Rainsford is still un decided as to his future career, but thinks it highly probable that he will be in either the banking or the insur ance business. Mr. J. 0. Sheppard will enter the newspaper business, joining- a grow ing paper immediately after com mencement. While' in college, Mr. Sheppard served as editor-in-chief of The Gamecock; here lie received val uable training, and here lie first showed his rare literary genius. Mr. J. Boozer Rawls, of football fame, wil either be a traveling sales man or a school teacher. Mr. J. C. von Lehe sails for Europe in a few weeks to take up his duties as Vice-Consul at Bremerhaven, Ger many. Mr. von Lehe's knowledge of the German language, his facial ex pression, andl his name, all assure him a warm welcome in the heart of the Empire. Mr. D. G. Yarborough will return to Carolina next year for the study of law and to secure his M. A. degree. Mr. C. G. Wyche, one of Carolina 's baseball and oratorical stars, will go to Spartanburg to study law in his brother's office. Three graduates, Messrs. TI. M. Furse, J. I. H-azard, Jr., and W. H. Monckton are undecided as to what field of work they will enter. The followving men will teach: Messrs. H. C. Chiitty, J. P. Coats, R. F. Goodwin, W. L. Hutchinson, V. J. Rector, T. M. Ross, R. F. Simpson and( P. L. 'Wright Y.-M. C. A. 1qo-igir-A Retro spect. Although we (lid have a Y. M. C. A. previous to this year, it was in name only. Just stop and think of the dif ference between last year's Y. M. C. A., with its little handful of men hud died up in DeSaussure College and our present one. Now, why has our asso ciation made such great progress dur ing the current year? It is because the student body is behind this move ment ; and whenever the entire stu dent body gets behind anything it is bound to go. As we all know we had practically no Bible study last year. This year we had seven Bible study groups, with about seventy pupils enrolled. But there is no reason why we should not have three or four times this number, and we can, if we will get to work with a determination behind it. Two new courses have been offered in mission study this year by the asso ciation. One of these is on "Negro Life in the South," led by Dr. G. B. Moore, and the other, "The Decisive Hour of Christian Missions," led by our secretary, Mr. Mills. These two courses had an enrollment of about sixty pupils. Next year we hope to greatly increase the enrollment. We have been very fortunate in securing good speakers for our meet ings. Among those are Dr. Weather ford, Senator Carlisle, Archdeacon Webber, Mr. Cristie Benet, Dr. E. 0. Watson and Dr. Neff. The attend ance of these meetings on the whole has been very good. We have given receptions to the following men: Mr. Plinipton, Dr. Walter H. Page, Dr. Knapp, Mr. Bourland, Dr. Weather ford, Dr. Francis L. Patton, and alumni of city of Columbia. We have a list of good men to head our association next year. At our annual election, which took place only a short while ago, the following men were elected: Alan Johnstone, presi dent; A. IH. Williams, vice president; T. S. McMillan, secretary, and G. H. Hdwards, treasurer. On the whole, we have had a suc cessful year, although there is plenty of room for improvement. But, fel lovs, let's don't stop here, but when we are home this suminer enjoying our vacation, let us determine to come back to old Carolina with a determina tion to make our association what it ought to be. Gonzales Contest. The annual Gonzales Oratorical Contest was held on May 15th. Mr. H-. Grady Gogginis, of Newberry, S. C., won out with the subject, "Knights of the New Order."
