Wardlaw, J. P. Lindsay, Wm. Columbia, S. C., March 26, 1918 Patronize Our Advertisers. When the business men of Columbia turn down an adver tising proposition with any of the college publications, the reason most often assigned is that it doesn't pay. The four or five hundred members of the Carolina student body spend several thousand dollars in Co lumbia each year. If you as an individual will spend your share of that amount with only those who advertise in one of the three college publications, The Gamecock, the Carolinian and the Garnet and Black, it ought to be a decidedly paying proposition for the business men of Columbia to advertise with us. It is nothing more than simple justice that you should help the men you choose to bear th efinancial burden of the publication, by taking the trouble to make yourself ac quainted with the list of our ad vertisers and do your buying from them. And when you make a purchase, tell them why you do it! Cooperative Education. Elsewhere in this issue ap pears an account of Prof. M E. Rowe's plan of cooperativ( education. To the wvriter the two brightest spots in the uni. versity's progress are the worn of the extension departmen1 and the proposed plan ofecoop, erative education. The extension department i: yet in its infancy. When the present senior class came tf college such a department was unheard of. Its work has al ready grown tremendously and bids fair to be an untold benefit i not only to the university but to the State at large. Prof. Rowe's plan is not new. It has been tried-and successfully-in a number of other places, rmore particularly in the North. The plan stated briefly is to get the industrial and commercial concerns of the city of Columbia or sur rounding territory to cooperate with the university in educat ing men, who otherwise would remain unskilled labor. The plan appeals more just at the present time than it wculd, perhaps, at any other time. The federal govern ment is pushing as it has never done before its plans for indus trial education. The great need of the present and the future is skilled workers. And just here we are reminded. that our leg islature turned down our at tractive proposition for federal aid for industrial training. Per haps, who knows, Prof. Rowe's plan may be a means of wak ing up the State to the neces sity of this kind of education. THE GAMECOCK'S ADVER TISERS. Lower Main Street Bank. The State Book Store.
