"Spirit, Mind, Body."
At a regular meeting of the
Young Men's Christian Associa
tion last Wednesday night, it
was the privilege of the students
to hear for the second time Dr.
H. A. Porter, of Atlanta.
The speaker used the subject,
"Living Life Over Again," and
for thirty minutes held the clos
est attention of his hearers. He
brought out the fact that, altho
we cannot live our past life again,
still life is full of chances, and in
order to redeem the errors of our
past life, we must seize the pres
ent opportunities. "The longer
we neglect the chances of redi
recting our life," said Dr. Porter,
"the harder it becomes to do so."
A most enjoyable feature of
the program was a solo by Mr.
Donald Sanders, accompanied by
Mr. Guy Horne. The Y. M. C.
A. officers are endeavoring to
make the meetings attractive
from every standpoint, and every
man who attends is assured a
profitable hour.
There will be no more meet
ings until after examinations.

(CONTINUED FROM P.\1E ONE.)
pose is to promote the study of
Socialism."
In his next address he gave
the following definition upon
which the series was based: "So
cialism requires the reorganiza
tion of the economic life of society
upon a basis of private ownership
and individual direction of things,
tools, processes, and functions,
that are essentially individualis
tic in character; and collective
ownership, and democratic man
agement of things, tools, pro
cesses and functions that are es
sentially collectivistic in charac
ter."
In his third address delivered
Thursday night on "Socialism
and the War," he reached the
climax of the series. Mr. Spar
go stated that looking at this sub
ject from a strictly neutral stand
point, he would not attempt to
fix the blame for the European
War upon any one nation. He
called Socialism the greatest ex..
isting force toward the preven
lion of war.
In the closing address on "So
cialism and Individualism," he
stressed that instead of meaning
the abolishmrent of private prop
erty as commonly supposed, aims
at its further extention.
Mr. Spargo is one of the most
forceful and pleasing speakers
that have visited the University
this year, and made a lasting im

ALUMNI LOAN FUND
Response to Appeal Very
Encouraging
In the early part of January
the General Alumni Association
sent a copy of a circular letter to
each alumnus of the University,
urging gifts to the Alumni Loan
Fund. Following this Dr. Cur
rell, thru the press of the state,
wrote a letter telling of the great
good the loan fund was doing for
the students of the University,
who did not have the money to
complete their courses.
Prof. Bradley, treasurer of the
Alumni Loan Fund, reports that
to date over one hundred dol
lars has been received in cash
and many additional pledges
made. Following so close upon
the appeal this is an excellent
showing.
The Alumni have now begun a
plan for a systematic canvass of
the state for this fund and at
the same time to perfect Alumni
organizations in the various coun
ties. Enthusiasm is high and
good results are expected.

and urge all to contribute to the
fund."
No effort will be made to can
vass for for large subscriptions.
A dollar or two from a number
of friends will be preferred to
greater amounts from fewer
contributors.
The first check to be received
was from Mr. Purdy, the origi
nator of the plan. In a letter to
THE GAMECOCK Mr. Purdy says,
"I beleive the alumni of the
University would all welcome
an opportunity to show their ap
preciation of the worth of 'Bob'
Gonzales by contributing to a
fund to present to the Univer
sity some memorial of him."
The committee as now organ
ized is as follows: From the
alumni, Robert W. Moorman,
president of the Alumni Associa
tion of the University, and J. S.
Reynolds, a co-worker with Mr.
Gonzales on the staff of The
State; from the faculty, Presi
dent W. S. Currell and Prof.
Reed Smith; from the student
body, R. R. Harley, president,
and J. M. Wells,1 editor of THE
GAMECOCK, the Uiversity week
ly founded by Mr. Gonzales in
his student days.
Miss S. F. Fickling, treasurer
of the University, will act as
treasurer of the fund and all
contributions should be forward
ed direct to her. A list of the
subscriptions will be publish in
THE GAuMOKe ac,h week.
