SOCIETIES. Clariorophic. With the inauguration of Isom Teal as president the Clario sophic Society began its third term of the session on last Fri day night. New officers assuming office in addition to Mr. Teal were G. L. Ford, vice-president; H. M. Lightsey, literary critic; G. I. Rentz, secretary; J. A. Cave, treasurer; Fant Kelly, recorder ; J. W. Jennings, sergeant at arms; J. G. Ezell and R. C. Cobb, monitors. A program was executed as follows: Declamation, A. W. Wood; current events, H. K. Sanders. Debate - Query, "Resolved, That there should be a reform in the South Carolina Tax Sys tem." The question was warmly contested by both sides. C. S. Chewning and S. D. Ervin up holding the aflirmative were op posed by V. D. Edwins and S. L. Lemon on the negative. The committee on debate ren dered a decision in favor of the afTirmative. Impromptu Debate-"Resolv ed, That it is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all." Messrs. Easterling and Simonhoff argued the affrinia tive while the negative was de fended by Messrs. Lee and Cas tles. A few but very entertaining remarks were made by 0. C. Blackmon at the close of the reg ular program. Mr. Blackmon has nt been able to attend so ci,ety regularly of late so on this occasion he expressed his views as to the splendid progress the society was making. To compose the Clariosophic representatives on Tile (,amu cock staff the following were sent up, four to he selected : E. H. Folk, Dewey Stephens, W. D. Edwins, W. B. Harvey, W. L.

The regular meeting of the HIypatian i terary Society was held on Friday morning in the society hail. The program con sistedl of a studyv of Lady Greg-' ory. An outline of her life and criticism of her work was giveni by Miss Mary Graydon, and Miss Rice. Miss Beasley concluded the program with the reading of a delightful one-act play. The remaCin der of the meeting was given over to the selection of pins for the society. These will bear the society colors and motto. Announcement was made that' the next meeting of the society wou.ld be a social, to be held on jFriday afternoon with the Misses Huggins on Blossom St FUN AND FROLIC FOR EUPHRADIANS Friday night the Euphradian Literary Society welcomed the Hypatian Society to the Euphra dian Hall. The occasion called for an informal program, the greater part of the evening be ing given over to the indulgence of the "social craving of the mul titude." The debate of the evening was a unique one, won by the nega tive. It has been the wont of humans, since time "when the mind of man runneth not to the contrary" that women should be called the weaker sex. But by the decision of the ones assem bled at the entertainment, and by the judges who were three men, the debate of the query, "Resolved, That man's mind is su)crior to that of womar's," was best argued, presented, and ,'aintained by Miss Boozer and Mrs. Durham,. of the Hypatian Society. The affirmative, com posed of Mr. Ard and Mr. Po li.koff of the Euphradian So ciety, accepted their inglorious 1efeat most graciously. President Johnson in his ad dress of welcome to the 1Rypa.. I ian memlbers and visitors from ('hicora, adiittedly evidenced h le fact that before a masculine a(u(ience he was at his best, but Ibefore such a cosmopolitan grloup as he had before him, he was at sea. He felt that the sim 'lest words were the best anld so fulfilJed his cmotion. After a splendid debate the .Judges rendered their decision in favor of the faii'er debaters. A! th~ the decision of the debate pre';ed that men have not brains equal to that of women, the men proved ample providers. A tempting ice course was served to the friends there assembled, and as old John Dryden says, "joy ruled the day and love the night." EUPHRADIAN PROGRA M FEBRUARY 18TH (urrent Events, Taylor, T. P.

LITERARY SOCIETIES COM PLAIN OF ARREARAGES The Clariosophic and Euph radian Literary Societies are both taking action with regard to members who are falling be hind with their obligations to their respective society. There has been a decided tendency in the past to avoid meeting so ciety obligations as long as pos sible. Negligenee on the part of many members has developed to such an extent as to necessitate drastic measures by the society to enforce its regulations with regard to unpaid dues. If every member would appreciate his duty toward his society and pay his fees proniptly as they fall due any hardships on the indi vidual and the society both could be very much lessened. Those members to whom this artic!e is directed will save themselves fu turc embarrassment by investi gating their account on the books of the societies as soon as pos sible. S. C.
