It's all 'right for these seminary
students to take a little work
around here, but we won't stand
for any corruption of our morals.

just as a matter of information

No use talking, it leads to re
ligious doubt to consider the

reflect that it is written "Man is
but a little Jowerthan the angels."
To our mind the fourth year
Latin student was exactly correct
when he said: "What I don't
know about Latin is hardly worth
knowing and *hat I do know
isn't worth more than a cent or
two."
Who are the best two men on
Bill Streit's second all-Southern

vote is unanimous, and the
gentlemen are awarded the hon

We are dead against these in
sidious lobbies, just like Wood
row-but while at home during
the holidays, you might ease up
to your legislative representative
and casually drop a few words
about how rotten our chapel is.
THE TRACK ASSOCIATION.
Last week there was held at
the University a meeting that
was fraught with interest to
those who wish the University
to do well in athletics.. This was
the meeting held here to form a
State track association. Every
one knows that for the past
few years the University has
failed dismally in her efforts to
put out a track team. This may
be attributed in part to the fact
that a suitable coach had not
been secured. But this fault
has entirely been remedied this
year. We have two coaches
both of whom are redhot live
wires. These men are doing
their utiost to put out the best
bunch of men that ever donned
the Garnet and Black track duds.
But the thing that will contri
bute the most to a successful
season will be the interest that
the fellows are going to take in
this form of athletics. This is
our one chance to retrieve the
loss of the Clemson game. We
have some fellows here that
ought to do as well as any men in
the State.
This meeting is not only good
for the best interest of the Uni1
'versity but for the State at
large. It will bring the col
leges of the State into closer af
filiation and will serve to ce
ment the bonds of friendship be
tween them. We have always
needed some such association so
that we could engage in athletic
contests with Presbyterian Col
e and W ttbrd: These et
eges should all put out a track
team,
The high schools of the, St't'
have achieved wonderful resitji
with their organization. s w d$
should we not do as well?
SWIPING MAGAZINES.
Those fellows who are connect
ed with the Carolinian are re
ceiving considerable trouble, be
cause of the fellows taking the
exchanges out of the postoffice.
At the recent Press Associatieii
convention held at Erskine, the
representatives of Carolina were
well blessed out because they
had failed to respond to exchanges
they had never received.
Fellows may not realize that
they are working a serious injury
to the good name of the Univer
sity. It was very hard for the
delegates from ' alina to say
that some of the fellows had tak
en the magazines from the post
office.
There is not the slightest use
for the men to act like this.
Every exchange received here
will be placed upon the table in
Flinn Hall where evei-y one will
have free access to them. This
will save the managers of the
Carolinian much embarrassment
and will also leave us in good re
putewith other college magazines.
CLASS FOOTBALL.
That was a very good idea, of
the Advisory Board in not allow
ing any men who had participa
ted in either a varsity or scrub
game to play class football. This
season there has been a marked
scarcity of material on the foot
ball field and to remedy this de
fect, the Advisory Board passed
this rule.
This will allow. Coach Edger
ton to get a line on some of the
embryo Brickleys, Mahans, Coys,
Heffelfingers, Hestons, etc., that
have not been developed this year.
There are men here who can
show the goods in a manner cal
culated to twist rings in the Ti
ger's tail next Fair Week.
It will also put the classes on a
more equal - standpoint in their
games, for most of the men who
go out for class teams are those
who haven't played at all.
