Did you notice the beautiful neckwear??? Don't be alarmed, the single tax does not apply to single blessedness. Some fellows say they wil drink Rock and Rye, but ,nogl likely they will drink, rock and reel. The reason .girls don't carry as many trunks and snit eases as they uised to is because they don'i wear as much nowadays.

Al anty rate they appeal to us morc now. THE LIBRARY Much criticism was heard on the campus last week, and justly so, over the library being closed last Wednesday. This has got ten to be too common a practise. Every meeting of the board of trustees, every holiday and al most every special occasion finds the University's greatest asset closed to the students. The University has gotten to be too large an institution .for such a custom. Regardless of I how important the occasion there are always some who want to work in there. Many a man, who has special research work to do, plans 'his numerous duties and allows just the exact amount of time he needs to complete the .work, goes: on his way, only. toi ;face the words on the door "Li brary closed today." Just at this time we are pre paring for three inter-collegiate debates. The men sacrifice their time only to be disappointed when they seek to enter the storehouse of knowledge." It is not treating the men right and it is not treating the University right. There are many men on the campus who would be only too glad to sacrifice their time in order to make a dollar or so extra by-looking after the library when the regular librarians can not be on the job. Surely the Univer sity can afford to keep the library, above all .plae;on the campus, open wheat-he 'is' a demand for it. COED ARTICLE COMMENT In another column of this issue is an article in 'reply-to a recent editorial that appeared in the GAMECOCK. It gives the editor pleasure to publish it because there are al ways two sides to every ques tion. This one is rather pecul iar in that it has three sides. Now what . have the University, authorities to say on the subject in question. We will no.t enter into a dis cussion, on the pros and cons of coeducation. The University and the state have decreed that the institution be coeducational and we accept it as such. Now it is up -to us all to make the existing conditions what they should be and draw the integral parts into a homogeneous student body. As one of the coeds says; part of the trouble is with the Univer sity, part with the coeds and part with t he student body. Let each try to do his part and all work for the common good of the University to make it one of~ the greatest institutions of learn ing ini the South. The few who attended the re cent basketball games have an eye for the nasthetic. NATURE nF Uthing she < bacco aini't any VELVET is naturally aged for two years. No artifittal methods.
