This issue marks the last atteipt at the putting out of a collegiate weekly by the present staff. The editor bids the works good-bye, but the assistant editors merely advance a notch in the ladder that they are climbing. As in the past, the new editor for next year is one of the assistant edtiors on the present staff. It is with regret that we bid the old press shop, the assistants, the students and others a farewell as we leave the newspaper field. The expe rience in this line of work has been great, an( it is hoped that some of the members of the present staff are going to continue as "news hounds." There may be some on the campus who are glad to see the end of the year arrive, because they are tired of being hounded for news articles. We are sorry that they feel that way. but a paper needs news., and it had to be gotten. Many are the times promised articles failed to arrive be cause the one making the promise de cided that a (late at C. C. or Chicora would he better than writing for the Gamecock. It meant extra work for the editor. During the last term the editor would usually write up the pa per himself, with an occasional article from the assistants. It was hard, but had to be done. As a last minute sug gestion: if there are any on the new staff who do not prol)ose to help every now and then, it would he best if he wolud resign immediately and let the editor get In who will help him. The editor can't do it all. lie has classes the same as the rest of the students and must depend upon support from the students. Remember, you are a reporter even thou your name does not appear in the Gamecock. . 1(ue to lack of funds, this will be the last issue this term. It means that we can get back to our studies and try to catch up that back work in t line for the exams. Thus we say good-bye again, aud hope that all pass the exams and especially tie members of the staff. Go to Blue Ridge in June. Y.M.C.A.

Blue lidge is the annual gathering place for students, and adult workers in the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. Blue Ilidge now has 1,391 acres of land, 43 buildings, electric light plant, hot and cold water, steam laundry, swimming pool. athletic grounds, truck garden, and a boys' camtip. However, inl order that the conferences may be made more pleasurable as well as profitable, a large lake is needed. The Blue IRidge Association, through a commit tee appointed for that purpose, is put ting on a drive for funds to build this lake. Elvery college and university will be given an opportunity to help this movement, and it is hoped that the greater part of the fund may be raised through this source. Y.M.C.A.
