We have striven hard to give Carolina a big ger and better GA MECOCK and to work for the up)-building of a Greater Carolinia at all times. But we realize wve have not pleased all our readers and all our patrons at all times hut have done only what we thought for the best. In handing over the news offices to Editor Polier and his able staff of co-workers wve do so with an inward feeling of satisfaction for in ouar opinion no better men could have possibly been electedl to fill their respective p)ositions. Under their leadership THE GAMECOCK will always stand forth for the best possible for Alma Mater. But we the present staff say goodbye with a feeling of regret for we have honestly enjoyed our houtrs of labor and they have been profitable for we have learned much of newspaper ways and policies. We hope we have pleased you with our efforts, b)ut pleasing you: or not our vision has been -WHAT IS BEST FOR CAROLINA. We know the-incoming administration will con tinue this policy for in addition to being an able editor the man you have chosen as your leader in the opinion of the school is one of far vision who only wants the best to be had, and that best is the University of South Carolina as the biggest and best University in the South.. To the seniors, our best wishes for a happy and prosperouse fttre, to the unelassamen, a successful future at Carolina, to all of you, may you always keep fresh and vivid in your memory the Greater Carolina and all it stands for. With this, our last word we say: - U.s.c. -- A True Southerner Almost daily does one read of a triumph somewhere in the world by one who claims the South as his native land. There are said to be so many Southerners in the banks of New York behind the windows, that is-rthat the bank cafe terias specialize on chicken hash and waffles. The metropolitan newspapers are operated, one hears, by boys who went North." Now those fellows will be SoUfierners as long as they live. They will never forget to for get their "r's." They will always cheer "Dixie." They will always jerk off their coats and waist coats and fight at the first breath of a slur Against the name of- Lee, Jackson, Stuart, Davis. The North sent many men South. Are those men and their sons as loyally Northern as the Southern men and women on the other side of the M. and D. line are loyally Southern? William Hard, the political writer, was intro duced to two West Paint cadets at the Army-Navy football game. The name of one cadet was Buell. "I take it from your spech that are Southern," Mr. Hard said. The boy threw back his head promptly. "I am, you bet, sir. I'm a Tennes scean. Tennessee is the greatest state in the Union." Mr. Hard stroked his chin, musing. "Let me see. Wasn't there a General Don Car los Buell who led a Union army into Tennessee during the Civil war? " he asked. The West Pointer stood a little bit straighter and spoke perhaps a little bit more proudly. "There was a general, sir. He was my grandfather."-Rich mond News-Leader. - U.S.C. - Seniors Commencement The seniors are graduating. From the ele mentary schools, fron the high schools, from the colleges and universities they are being ushered forth to new fields of activity, new experiences, new problems. Some of them are through with school. For them this is a real commencement of the battles of life. But though some are through with school. none is through with study. Though some are through with scholastic preparation, none is thru with the continual, sustained application which is the accumulative preperation of all who are fired with the ambition and* zeal of which success is born. Whatever the field of action to which tht. graduates now seek entrance, they will find that the price of advancement, of service and reward, is indeed the commencement of study and prepara tion upon an ever- increasing scale. Some there are, no doubt, who like to think that they now are "through." Indeed they are through-through with hope and through with ambition and through with advancement-unless they. now commence. -.s.c. -- I BY JIMMY Build U p Carolina Well fellows it's all over but the shoutin'. We have already stood part of our exams and at least have them off our mind whether we "bust" or p)assedl them. To most of us it is only a parting of three short months from our fellow students but to others, the sheep-skin draggers, it is good bye to Cprolina. We have had a very successful year and are going to make it more successful next year. First of all we wvant fifteen hundred students at Caro lina next September, with the coming of the in creased amounts of students the athletic coaches will naturally have more material from which to pick their teams and we surely want and are go ing to have nothing short of championship teams next year. Our teams will ned backing from the student body on the sidelines to cheer them on to victory and Carolina has never failed to back her teams to the limit and we know that every student will be on Davis Field next year with bells on and they will all be ringing. So fellows let's leave here with one big ob ject in view 1,et your motto be, dring these three months that you are away, 'Talk Carolina--" We, want a bigger and better Carolina next year and we are going t ave..: i Is Teer,uck ? As our exams ar- upon ts some of us will probably have to depend on .uck. Juqt shut our eyes and see whether we hit ',or miss. Do you believe in Luck? Welf, I do. It's a wonderful forcel I have watched careers of too many lucky men, to doub't its existence and its efficacy. You see some. fellows teach out and grab an opportunity that the other fellows stnding around had not realized was there. Having graffbed it he hangs onto it with a grip that makes the jows of a bulldog seem like a fairy touch. He calls into play his breath of vision. He sees the possibilities of the. situation, and has the ambition, to desire them and the counrage to tackle them. He intensifies his strong points, bolsters his weak ones, cultivates those personal qualities that cause other- men to -trust him and to cooperate with him He sows the seeds of sunshine of good cheer. of optimisim, of utistaned kindness. He gives free ly of what he has, both spiritual and physical things. He thinks a little straighter; works a little harder and a little longer; travels on his nerve and his enthusiasm; he gives such service as his best efforts permit. And then, Luck does all the rest. - u.s.c. THE WEEKLY ORACLE He Who Woes and Runs Away Loses His Heart Another Day By I. M. P.
