"Spirit, Mind, Body."
Mr. D. W. Robinson, an attor
ney of Columbia, spoke at the
regular Y. M. C. A. meeting in
Flinn Hall Wednesday evening
on "Stimulants." Mr. Robinson
is an active promoter of prohi
bition in South Carolina. He
was one of the originators of
the move to bring a prohibition
election before the people of the
State and the passage of the
measure was aided greatly by
his influence and untiring efforts.
He is now working in the inter
est of enforcing the law already
made.
The address was mainly taken
up with the effect of alcohol
upon the individual and indirect
ly upon society. He gave sever
al striking illustrations of dimin
ished efficiency due to the drink
ing of alcoholic beverages. The
speaker used stenographers and
telegraphers as examples of this,
showing that their work was
slower and less accurate when
under the slight influence of al
cohol than when entirely sober.
Mr. Robinson is now interested
in a bill to limit the monthly
supply of each individual to two
quarts instead of a gallon. He
spoke of this measure and also
proposed several plans by which
prohibition could be more easily
enforced. The speaker said that
these were only steps in favor of
entire prohibition in the State
which would gradually lead to
nation wide prohibition.
Before the lecture Miss Lillian
Glenn rendered a piano solo
which added greatly to the pro
gram.

TO IMPROVE GROUNDS
ABOUT THE INFIRMARY
Dr. Currell Ask Alumni to Help
Improvement of University
Infirmary Grounds.
President Currell has a cam
paign whereby he hopes to real
ize enough money to improve the
grounds around the Infirmary.
We have comfortable and
well equipped-though it could
be better-infirmary, so far the
interior is concerned, but the
outside is badly in need of im
provement. Dr. Currell is send
ing letters to a number of Alum
ni asking that they contribute to
the fund for improving the lawn,
putting down walks and planting
trees about the Infirmary. To
the first letter sent out $25 was
sent in by Mr. P. H. Gasden, of
Charleston. This prompt and
liberal response is very encourag
ing and it is hoped that in a
short while enough money will
be raised to carry out the work
contemplated by Dr. Currell.
