RELIGIOUS WEEK ' COMES TO END IN CHAPEL THURSDAY 1 ?? { ' Dr. W. D. Weatherford Favorably Impressed by Work of ' Y. M. C. A. at University Religious Emphasis Week was concluded with the mass meeting at the 1 Chapel on Thursday night. For the past 1 week the campus has been acutely aware 1 of this religious program, sponsored by 1 the Y. M. C. A. and led by Dr. W. D. Weatherford of Nashville, Tennessee. ! All of Dr. Wcatherford's addresses ' dealt with the general theme, "The Life of the Spirit." In addition to his speeches in the Chapel he addressed a faculty ' seminar every day at noon at Flynn Hall. ! On Monday night he talked to the mem - ! hers of the "Y" promotion force, telling of the advantages to be derived from attending the Blue Ridge Conference. He also held discussions in several tenements ' and fraternity houses. One of the most important results of Dr. Wcatherford's visit to the University was the personal contact that many students had the privilege of forming with him. These personal interviews were held in Flynn Hall every day and it was 5through them that the students came to 81 really know Dr. Weatherford and Dr. 2 Weatherford to know the students of o <-> Carolina. O Concerning his visit here Dr. Weatherco ford says, "I find the work of the Y. >J M. C. A. at'the University of South 2 Carolina to be in good favor of both 3 faculty and students. It is offering a #5 forum where students may honestly and ^ frankly discuss the most important is g sues of life?namely, morals, religion, and the attitude of students toward life ^ problems, including vocational ones. "I have been greatly impressed by the frank, open way in which students have met me as their guest on the campus. Aly highest wish for my own son as well as for every college man is that he shall be manly enough to face every issue frankly and then act upon what seems to him to be the largest truth. I have met many students at the University of South Carolina who seem to be doing that." In conjunction with the work of Dr. Weatherford the program of Religious Emphasis Week included forums held every day at the Woman's Building by Mrs. A. R. Childs. At these meetings Mrs. Childs delivered talks to and held discussions with many Carolina girls. u. S. c. Jones: I think that I'll run my wife for Congressman. Smith : And why ?

L. Greene, assistant in Biology. At each end of the hall, there is a thirty-gallon aquarium. These large, rectangular glass tanks are very attractive; the floor is covered with white sand, and they are filled with many interesting forms of plant life. The purpose is tc show students how to keep an aquarium and to exhibit various sorts of fishes Among those on display now are topwater minnows, and beautiful rainbowcolored paradise fish from China. Th< plans are to enlarge the stock of fish showing different types at different times Along the'sides of the walls, there ar< show cases containing interesting mounted specimens of animal life. Ii one, there are two of the three knowr forms of egg-laying mammals. A mu seum is considered lucky to have an ex ample of even one of these specimens There is a case for reptiles, contain ing several of the stages of developmcn of copperheads, rattlers, amphiumas large salamanders, and others. Anothei case contains many specimens of loca birds, and three cases of invertebrat* forms. Of espccial note is the shell col lection of Dr. Robert Gibbes, which ii probably one of the best in the country There are several sponges, a smal octopus and various types of crabs pre served in museum jars, and insect board displaying lovely butterflies and othc forms of insect life. This small museum of natural histor; has been placed there for the benefit o the students, and all are invited to lool it over. u. s. c. CAROLINES BY E.G.

HOUSE-PARTY AT TWIN LAKES MANY STUDENTS ATTEND Dr. Pool of Furman University Gives Three Interesting Talks As an introduction to the program of Religious Emphasis Week, the Y. W. C. A. house party was held at Twin Lakes last week-end. It was attended by a large number of students, who heard the addresses of and were led in their discussions by Dr. Pool of Furman University. Dr. Pool gave three very interesting talks. He spoke first Saturday night, then again Sunday morning and also Sunday afternoon. After each of these talks an open discussion was held during which Dr. Pool answered many questions of a religious nature asked of him by the assembled students. Many questions concerning individuals or conditions on the campus of the University were asked and answered. In addition to achieving its main purpose of arousing religious interest, this outing afforded the students who attended it recreational pleasure of a worthwhile sort. Each man present was personally introduced to Dr. Pool and had the opportunity of discussing his pet theories and questions with him, man to man. u. ?. c.
