There are lips that touch liquor, There are some that sip wine, But the lips that touched onions Are the ones that met mine. The scene changes. Behold the R. 0. T. C. What next? ??????? In three acts. Act I: Pies. Act II: Pains. Act III: Pills. Who put the "Hart" in Harts ville? G. A. B. showed up Monday with a look of happiness on his countenance mingled with the unmistakable signs of one on the morning after. We wonder where he had been. There appears to be a grow ing interest on the campus in the problems of the rural schools of the State. TO COKER. It would be an infringement on the laws of hospitality if the delegates to the Press Associa tion did not make an attempt to express their appreciation of the reception given them by the stu dents and faculty of Coker Col lege. The visitors were not only bidden welcome, but were made to feel so. Every member of the student body and faculty made a point of seeing that every delegate to the Associa tion eninvyrd himself or heself to the utmost. The members of the "Bashaba" staff are due especial thanks for their untir ing efforts to forestall any pos sible desire the visiting editors might have. It would be useless to at tempt to express in mere words our gratitude for your gener osity and kindness, students and faculty of Coker. We can only say that we shall cherish among our most treasured memories the pleasant days spent on your campus-that we hope that the friendships we made among you will become closer and closer with the passing years-that we wish some day to have the priv ilege of returning to you some of the many kindnesses which you so freely bestowed upon us. THE S. C. C. P. A. It was the editor's privilege during the past week to attend the College Press Association of South Carolina held at Coker College. That this is a rare privilege can be appreciated only by one who has had the pleasure of be ing a delegate to this conference. The average student is inclined to minimize the importance of the benefits to be derived from such a meeting and, very fre quently, the statement is heard that the sole result of such a convention is a pleasant trip for those who are so lucky as to be selected as delegates. Such a statement, however, is far from the truth. It is not to be denied that the opportunities for social enjoyment are fac tors which contribute in a large measure to the success of the meeting, but this feature fades into relative insignificance in comparison to the real object of the association. The interchange of ideas as to the best methods of handling the problems which confront college periodicals, the explana tion of plans that have succeed ed, the discussion of plans that have failed-these are the true functions of the College Press Association. Along with these discussions there comes to the editor and manager the realiza tion that his problems are not local, that others are experienc ing the same difficulties ad are overcoming them. By consider-. ing his problems from a variety of viewpoints his outlook is broadened and he is able to go back to his magazine or news paper with renewed hope and a greater desire to improve the quality of his publication. The colleges of the city are very fortunate in securing the privilege of entertaining the as soc.iation at its next meeting. Any student of Caronan who misses the opportunity of at tending the sessions of the as sociation next year will niss something of great value, es pecially if he expects to be e.on nected with either of the !ol lege periodicals. THE LEAGUE OF PEACE Last week in Chicago at a meeting of a department of the National Educational Associa tion a resolution .to indorse the league of peace proposed was made not only was it unani mously carried, but when the reading of it was completed the entire audience of more than five thousand rose to its feet and applauded. And the majority ofthis crowd was Republican. We only mention this fact to show that the great mass of thinking people, the brains of the nation, heartily approve the plan of this league.
