On last Monday evening Bob
King entertained .the senior en
gineering studente and Prof.
Seibert at dinner. Everybody
ate to his satisfaction, but the
feast had just begun. After the
dinner,. cigars were served.
Besides the fact that there were
no ladies present, another pleas
ant feature was that there were
no toasts or speeches. English
related his experiences on the
chaingang; last summer. JOhnson
told of his work on the canal,
while Prgf. Seibert dreamed of
a meridian.'
This was a birthday party, in
honor of Bob King's .brother.
Y. M. C. A. Meeting.
A special program consisting of
a mission rally was given at the
Y. M. C. A. on last Wednesday"
evening. - Dr. J. O. Reavis was
. the main speaker and delivered
the first..address, 'The Impor
3 tance of Studying Missions'.
"True feeling is the tempera
vi ture of thought," said the speak
6 er, 'and our interest in missions
.5 is aroused only to the degree
. that we invest the 'capital of
. thought' in its literature. Over
three hundred fresh, strong books
have been written in the last
two years on this subject, and
there is a large field for the in
vestment.of this kind of capital."
This mission literature, which I
is ever increasing, puts us in di
rect touch with world move
ments. .Our views are made
larger and our sympathies are
broadened as we become acquain
ted with the undertakings of
this great field. The lives of
men have been molded and liter
ally changed by the reading of a
single mission book, such as the
'Life of Livingston." The study
of such lives as these inspires us
to a larger vision, to a larger life
in this world for the great God- i
service.
After the eloquent address of
Dr. Reavis each of the leaders
of the six courses gave a brief
outline of their text books that
would be used. Then a com
mittee canvassed the dormitories
and signed up 11g men. When
this total was estimated the can
vass was not complete.
Steam Heat.
The Legislature refused to
grant the full amount of money'
asked for by the University
of South Carolina for the
extension of the heating system
to both Thornwell and LeConte
colleges. T1he $12,500 apo
priation is sufficient for the heat
ing of only one building. The
trustees will decide at their next
meeting which building this will

The Inter-High.S hool Athletic
and Oratorcial Association of
South Carolina :will hold its an
nual meet at Carolina, Apri 22
and 23. The University, as head

coming event. The declamation
contest will be held in the Uni
