A Minister is an unconscious hu nanitarian. This issue would not be complete without reference to N. A. Wright. Here it is. A Low Dive is a restaurant with remarkably poor meals for the money and an unkempt proprietor. Down with false complexion, bought curls, hobble skirts and the turkey trot, says a certain resolution. While all the Monday morning "At-Homes" which are held by Dean Moore are entirely informal, invita tions are always by card. Marshal Dyches is trying to fill up two bottolless pits on the campus. The Mess Hall authorities send him their sincere sympathy. The college girls may be only amateur angels, but they certainly have it on the professionals in the matter of up-to-date styles. An extra issue of TlinE GAMECOCK will be given to the one who will guess wvhat article in this issue is written by a lady. A Professor is a man of average intelligence who has converted the supposedly elevated cond it ion of wis dom into business cap)ital. .

Several students are also expected to attend the classes to be given by the faculty. Farewell. With this issue of TIHE GAME COCK we pass from the world of col lege journalism, in which we have spent a most pleasant stay, and turn over our duties, cares and pleasures to the new staff. It would be a life long task to express our thanks and appreciation to all who have contrib uted to the success that we have made (and the success that we could not have made otherwise), but we can not let go this opportunity to express our deep indebtedness to the mem bers of the Clariosophic and Euphra dian Literary Societies who exalted us with honors; who strengthened us with tin faltering confidence; who guided us with loyal and dispassion ate support. Also we must bow in gratitude to the student body and faculty for the great part that they have had in the worthy and genuine support given THE GAMECOCK, be cause here, perhaps more tangible than elsewhere, were the direct sources from which we received an untold assistance in the way of opin ions, suggestions and contributions. For instance, a letter from Dr. Joynes or an article from the other professors was always gotten wvhen asked for, and many times volun tarily. With such help always at hand, our troub)les have been small and overshadowed by the inestimable pleasures and practical experiences that we have dlerived from editing T HrE GAME~COCK. It is with sOrrowv, yet p)leasure, that we leave the bird to soar on pinions upheld and guided by our successors. With sorrow be cause the pleasures, experiences and associations that have characterized the term's workc have become our' happy possessions that wve cannot forget and would not let (lie; wvith p)leasure because wve are sulcceedled by an abler staff, wvhose e(toer is none other than one of our most compan ionable assistants. It is true that we have not accomplished what we hoped, but we have tried conscien tiously to do our duty as we con ceived it and to make THE GAME COCK an honest expression of the student body. We feel that our weekly publica tion will be an improvement under the new staff with its efficient editor and assistants; and to them we wish all the pleasurable experiences that have been ours.
