LET'S DESERVE IT.
The State University is in
most cases the leading college in
the State. This is true of West
ern State Universities and it is
true of Southern State Universi
ties. To bring it nearer home
t, us, it is true of Carolina.
13oth students and faculty visit
i.ig other institutions in our
State have been gratified to
know that this is true.
Should we pause to think of
it, this a most natural situation.
Those who have larger oppor.
tunities, of them more is retlui;
ed. Carolina being located in
the Capitol City, al''ords the
students a broad field for study
ing governmental, moral and re
ligious conditions. Be&ng in di
reet contact with the larger
forces at. work in the State we
should be able to equip ourselves
for better service than those
who do not have those privileges.
Consequently many of the col
leges in this State look to Caro
lina as their model and as their
leader.
We should not fail to realize
that leadlership is always accomi
l)anied1 b.y responsibility. If it
is trute, and it is true, that the
University is regarded by many
schools in the State as the lead
er we should be careful to prove
ourselves worthy of their respect
b)y condulctinug our many activi
ties in a creditable mann(er.
SANS ADIEU.
Today the administration of
the staff ele -ted last spring to
edit TIhe Gameocnk exvnhe.n nd
the new corps of editors so well
selected by the societies joins
that regiment of students who
have had the privilege of being,
connected with Carolina's sweek
ly.
There are three kinds of pleas
ures attached to every happy in
cident in life: to wit, the pleas
ure of anticipation, the pleasure
of realization, and the pleasure of
remembrance. Our connection
with The Gamecock has been a
pleasureof realization for thepast
six months and tomorrow it will
be a pleasure of remembrance.
The pleasures of anticipation we
did not experience, as we did not
aspire to the position which we
felt we did not deserve and the
duties of which we felt keenly
our inability to perform.
The pleasure of realization has
been genuine to us. We have
not failed to realize to the ut
most the responsibility that rest
ed upon us and our obligations
to the literary societies to which
we are indebted for the privilege
of serving them in our humble
and strictly limited capacity. It
has been a pleasure because we
have been given an opportunity
to show to the societies our ap
preciation of the benefits deriv
ed from our associations with
the members. We have endeav
ored to make The Gamecock a
journal which should represent
weekly every organization on the
campus, bearing news of every
phase of college activity. We
have earnestly desired that it be I
a weekly of the students, for the
students and by the students,
laying special emphasis on the
imlSortance of students other
than the staff contributing their
talent for the support of The
Gamecock. We also have en
deavored to present, such news
as could he found first hand, in a
readable manner to the students,
alumni and others in whose
hands a copy perchance might
fall. It is not for us to deter
mine just how far we have sue
ceeded. But we can testify that
our elforts have been honest, and
our purpose has been pure, and
our benefits have been many.
Tomorrow, we shall think of
our connection with The Game
cock as a pleasure of the past.
Memory after all is one of
the greatest things we possess.
There has grown up within
us a profound love for "The
Bird,'" and we are glad that it is
our privilege to sub)mit its im
mediate future to a staif at whose
head is a man in whom we all re
cognize strong literary and mana
gerial ability. We feel sure
that our successors will make Tfhe
Gamecock a greater suiccess and
a more powerful factor than we
have ever known.
