Rowe, dean of the School of Engineering, addressed the freshmen 011 the subject of engineering in chapel Wednesday morning. Dean Rowe defined civil engineering as static engineering by virtue of its dealing with structures and forces at rest. He stated that this is the widest and most useful branch of engineering to society. The dean further stated that the career of the engineer often calls upon him to act as business man. It, therefore, behooves the prospective engineer to train himself along executive lines. Turning to Doctor Murchison, Professor Rowe said that he thinks the engineer works as if divinely inspired, and that intellect wrests the secrets of nature and transforms them into useful inventions for the comfort of mankind. u. s. c. PHILLIPS SPEAKS IN CHAPEL SUNDAY Dr. Henry D. Phillips, rector of the Trinity Episcopal Church of Columbia, was the speaker at the vesper service in the chapel last Sunday night. The topic of Dr. Phillips' speech was "The Individual's Place." "There is 110 one thing," Dr. Phillips said, "more important for. everyone to realize than the fact that he and everyone else around him are separate and individual characters like unto none other. And 110 one knows the secrets of the individual character except the Supreme Being. A consciousness of the importance of the individual has been often demonstrated by great leaders of men when they have turned aside from some great work to render aid to some unfortunate and stricken man. Men must realize that they must deal with each other as individuals for the best good of all men." Despite the inclemency of the weather a large number of students were present to hear the address of Dr. Phillips. The meeting was presided over by Sam Taylor and the speaker was introduced by R. M. Newton. The speaker for the vesper service next Sunday will be Dr. W. S. Currell of the University. Dr. Currell will speak on "Where We Got Our Bible." Special music will be furnished by Iyeon Keaton and Alton Bnown. u. s. c. DOCTOR SMITH TO GREENVILLE Dr. Reed Smith will lecture in Greenville at the Poinsett Hotel, Friday, April 24. His subject will be the ballads of South Carolina. Virginia Blackwell will accompany him 011 the trip, and after his lecture she will sing several of the ballads, illustrating his talk. The occasion is a meeting of a literary club. There will be a banquet and several other speeches 011 literary subjects. GOOD PRINTING When You Want It, As You Want It.

Pi Kappa Phi Plans Novel Fishing Party In the near future several of Pi Kappa Phi boys are going to Edisto Island for a few days of fishing. They plan to be gone about three or four days and to live as fishermen. They are going to depend entirely on tl^e fish they^ catch for food, which should make the party rather interesting, since none of the boys have had any experience in this art. Someone suggested that they should carry oilskin bags and sleep out in the open like really true fisherman should do, but the motion was overruled by those present, it being claimed that it would be carrying a good thing too far, and that they didn't believe fishermen slept out in the open with nothing but an oilskin bag, anyway.
