Y.M. C. A. PLANS DRIVE FOR YEAR'S 8IIDGET Smith Heads Committee to Solicit Funds for Expenses Plans for the big Y. M. C. A. drive have been completed and the machine that is to do this work will be put in motion next week. E. B. Smith, presi dent of the Y has been selected to conduct this campaign with the members of the student council and cabinet to assist him. Several teams of ten or more will be formed to canvass the student body for pledges to this fund. The amount to be raised is small compared to that apportioned last year and everything that is subscribed will be placed on the Carolina budget. It will cover the ex penses of the regular Y work and the donations to foreign enterprises. For a time the committee could not decide how to best use the money to be raised but after the talk by Mr. Jessop several weeks ago it was de cided that the fund should go toward paying the expenses of the first secretary to be es tablished in Jerusalm. This is a splendid opportunity to re pay the Holy City for the good it has done for Christianity and we are fortunate in having this chance to be among the first to help in this work. There are also some things must be done at home. Flinn Hall needs more repairing, new records must be secured for the Victrola, the expenses of the speakers for the session must be paid. Besides this the Y has planned an extensive social program which will have to be financed. Many other incidental expenses will have to be cared for and the drive for funds must succeed. The future succss of the Association depends upon the way it is sup ported by the student body. On Friday morning the Hy patian Literary Society met for the first tiine in the girls' study, for the purpose of electing offi cers. Miss Louise Jones was elected president; Miss Mary Wingfield, vice' president; Miss Isabel Legare, secretary and treasurer and Miss Ellen Glen, critic. Students of the college that attended the reception given by the First Baptist Church last Friday were Pivery much pleased with the welcome they reenived. EXTENSION DEPARTMENT PLANS TO HELP WOMEN Bulletins to be Issued Con taining Information The University of South Carolina is this year entering upon an enlarged field of ex tension work. Realizing the widening sphere of women's activities, evident on all sides and not ably expressed by the organ ization and rapid influence of the federation of women's clubs, special provision has been made for putting the University, in large measure, at the service of the womanhood of South Carolina. At a meeting of the trustees, held June 11, 1919, a commit tee of three professors was ap pointed to offer the services of the entire faculty to the wo men's clubs of South Carolina and to have direction of this phase of extension work. The committee is composed of G. A. Wauchope, Yates Snowden and J. N. Frierson. In pursuance of these insti tutions the committee suggest ed the following as several ways in which they may be of service: To suggest appropriate sub jects for courses of study in literature, history, economics, art, education, government, and natural science. To recommend suitable work of reference, bibliographies, and other material needed by clubs or individuals, and put inquirer in touch with experts for assistance and service. To prepare or edit programs for the year's work for the vari ous organizations. To furnish occasional lec tures for open meetings. To serve as a medium of ex change of programs among the clubs of the state. Although the library is open at all times to citizens of South Carolina for reading or re search within its walls, it is a matter of keen regret to the committee that the books and periodicals of the University library and the services of the library staff will not be other wise available for the year 1919-20. All bulletins issued by the University press will as hither to be sent free to all applicants. The committee invites cor respondence with clubs and individuals, and will endeavor to render them as prompt and efficient service as its facilities warrant THE NEW MAN'S SHOP 1213 Main Street, Facing the Capitol, Next to New Post Office + WE HAVE a new complete shop for men and catering to the + wants of COLLEGE STUDENTS, carrying the finest in Men's Fur- 4* Snishings and the exclusiue designed and tailored Stafford Clothing. + "= Our importations of Silk Shirts and Neckwear cover a large range + 04 of Exquisite patterns, in addition carrying Men's Hats and all other gentlemen's accessories. - YOUR INSPECTION IS EARNESTLY DESIRED ee 44 *4 Clemson Agricultural College W.
