Valuable Plates, Pictures And Facts Feature Contents Of Volumes Three, valuable volumes of books were rcccutly discovered in a local book store by Professor \V. 1). Strothers. One of the volumes "American Medical Botany" was written by J. Bigelow in 1728. The books are noted for its expensive plates and pictures as well as for its valuable facts. The books were purchased by the University and will be placed in the pharmacy library for the students of that school. Although the books arc over 200 years old they arc still in good condition. They have been rebound and will be of valuable service for many years. All students are urged to take great care in handling the books.More Money Spent For Gum Than Books We spend twice as much for chewing gum as we spend for text books while in school, sixteen times as much for movies, and twenty-five times as much for tobacco, according to an item recently published in The School of Education Gazette, a weekly publication of the Education department at the University of South Carolina. In 1913 2.7 cents out of every dollar spent for education was spent for text books; other expenses for education were 36 times that of text books. In 1928 1.6 cents out of every dollar was spent for text books; other expenses were 61}/, times that of text books. In 1928 the average total expenses for text books per pupil enrolled in public elementary and secondary schools was $1.41 ; less than four cents a week or less than one cent a day per enrolled pupil during a school year of 3() weeks. ?u. s. o.? nounced the personnel of the group to give the programs. The University V. M. C. A. has given more programs this year in high schools of the state than they ever have before. Some of the high schools in which programs have been given arc as follows: Chcraw, Hartsville, Lamar, Summerville, Augusta (Richland Military Academy), Edgefield, Grey Court Owens, Anderson, and Greenville (Hun com be Rd. Me. Church). The program consists, as a rule, of a quartet, instrumental music, readings, and one or two short talks by outstanding campus leaders on some of the problems that confront high school boys and girls. 3YLVAN BROS.

After the third drink, she was ready and rearing to go places and flu things. ller first display of inebriation was two complete somersaults which ended in a handstand. After a series of acrobatic slunts she started chasing something that the spectators couldn't see. These chases always ended with Fifi's head pressed against the wall. After one of these smashes she became enraged and attacked the wicked man who had encouraged her to imbibe that liquid which made her sec things she couldn't catch. h'ifi jumped upon the window and looked out: she either saw one of the judges or some cat-devil, for she made one cry and leaped from the window and scampered into the darkness. Next day, l'ifi was seen with her paws over her head uttering deep cries of pain. Had l'ifi been able to talk, perhaps she would be saying: "Why was 1 born? Why was I born?"

"I want to tell you how much we enjoyed having the Deputation team with us. Their program at the Baptist church on Sunday night and the program at the high school on Monday were both helpful and inspiring. The talks by Misses Philson and Kmerson and Mr. Sallengcr were splendid. They made a fine impression here and I feel sure their influence for good will last. The University Y. M. C.
