There were a lot of full fresh men after the "Feed". * ** We would not call the law room a bar room. That patch on the sock is a corn patch. Some girls believe in a Miss spent life. 8:* * The Saturday shave represents the Saturday Blade. The m(o)t shocking thing about the West is wheat. That was a feint wedding in which the groom fainted. The office boy that licks stamps has a job that he can stick to. *** Who is the freshman that burned out two lamps the night before he left? Headline: ''Trai fell through a trestle near Rainier, 20 miles south."' Some fall! * ** Even if Job did curse the day he was born he hasn't much on some shavers we knowv. From a sophomore theme: "Freshmen should be required to wear green caps, because you can hardly tell them from sopho more." Easley Progress: "The cal - bage is still leading our vegetable popularity, but we expect to see the tomato ketchup." State: "Better be careful and don't let the potato slip." Anniston Star: "Why worry? It cantaloupe." Barnwell People: "If you wish to beet the cabbage, cauliflower." Better squash this vegetable growth or it'll turnip cane. THE CLASS OF 1919 Members of the class of 1919, we heartily receive you in our midst. You are entering upon a formative period of life. What you will be, what place you fill in life, depends largely upon what you do in college. College life is a little world, if you please, in which we move and do things ,just as the outside world does things. If you waste your time in college with trifling things, and take no interest in the things that are a part of you, it is very reasonable to suspect that you will do the same thing in later years. For your purpose here is training, and the training that you get is likely to stick by you. Then let every new man join a literary society, take part in some featue of athletics in other words get the 'Carolina, spirit." ad be a part of your col-. lege. CIICORA, ALL HAiL! Chicora, we receive you with open arms (?). We welcome you to the capital city. We rec ognize with the highest respect1 the nolden< ss of your institution and the high moral and intellee tual standard which, for so maniny years, has been exemplified by alumnae and students. Yours is a great institution. Its work, like its graduates, is known far;; and wide. Columbia has profited by the removal of Chicora to its con fines. And we feel that the col lege will he a great help to the University. And, too, we be lieve that Columbia will be a great help to the students of Chicora. Columbia, for many reasons, is an ideal location for a college. She has always taken a great interest in her colleges and the students. The business men are considered friends of the student bodies. We trust, and beleive, that Chicora has enteredl upon a new era, that she is coming into her' greatest usefulness. The State and city have a right to be proud of this institution. THlE GAMECccK extends its heartiest good wvishes for a successful con tinuation of its work. TH E WINTHROP WEEKLY NEWS The first exchange to reach the editor's desk was the Win throp Wcek! y News. We hearti 11 THAR'S three k Igood tobacco, p an' VELVET. For better sort of toba brought out by ag ly enjoyed reading the two issues >f this college weekly. We wel 3ome it into the too small list of oliege weeklies in the State. The second issue asks for crit cism. Hesitatingly and sym pathetically we say that which we think. The second issue had i great dcai more of the journai istic style. We can see Lut one reason for the futl address of Pres. Johnson in the first issue, ind that is because lhe News is not independently a student pub lication. The paper is nearer to being the students' output now than it was last February. But why not absolute freedom? In this we do not criticise the staff nor the students. A college weekly issued by the faculty in the name of the students is like beautifully colored ice cream miade out of sour m: L. Winthrop puts; ouU i'. 1)f the est magazines in nch 1taie, :.uo we think that is tht' place t or the story "That Intere; t rmoney.' We congratulate, heartily con vratulate, the editorial staii upon its excellent production, in spite >f its handicap. FL1NN HALL Flinn Hall is the social center >f Carolina students. It is their home. Most every thing that could be expected at a Y. M. C. A. building is found at Flinn Hall. There are the county and town papers, weekly and month ly magazines, books, comfortable Ahairs, and in the winter cheer ful fires around which the stu .ents congregate for a real inter esting and social conversation. A. telephone is provided for our accommodation. Iced water is freely supplied. There is a piano for the musical inclined. It takes money to provide all~ these comforts and conveniences. [t has been the custom since the opening of Flinn Hall for the students to pay $1 per year for its maintenance until last year when the student body passed a resolution to the effect that that amnount ..shoul e a oi(l each Inds of tobacco better tobacco, VELVET is the 0 cco with its best ein'.

As it is every inan has the privilege of every thing in the hall. Yet there are some men who refuse to pay that dollar term fee and make frequent use of every thing there, even sometimes to the extent of monopolizing things. This not only shows a selfish disposition, but is an er rant: lack of college spirit. That man, who continues to prey upon the kindness of his college mates is robbing them of their money and their friendship for him. lHe is a parasite, and wishes to be harbored by others. Now there may be some who refuse to pay the l~inn Hall fee, and do it conscientiously. But let a man consider well before he does, and then afterwards let him re member, when he is enjoying the conveniences, that he is en joying them at the expense of his colleo-e friends.
