Value of a College Education
There was never a time when expert knowl
edge was so highly prized and so highly com
pensated.
High wages for untrained labor will tempt
many a young man to discount the value of a
college education. But such an education, repre
senting the work of four years, viewed merely
as an investment of time and money, is equal in
earning capacity to an estate of more than $50,
000.
What estate comparable with this can give
the parent of average means hope to give or
leave to his son? What young man can acquire
that much value in the same time at any other
business?
Education fits one for a life whose possibili
ties are limited only by his capacity and charac
ter. Eventually for the untrained there awaits
the slavery of ignorant and undirected effort.
Clemson College brings within the reach of
every young man in South Carolina the benefits
and possibilities of a technical education^ At
Clemson College a boy from the humblest home
in South Carolina can prepare himself for a
high place in the service of his state and nation.

The Cave Man
Hurled a Rock
The cave man could hurl
a rock which was heavier
than you or I could pos
sibly lift. But his enjoy
ment of health was no
greater than yours can be.
Vitality, bounding energy
-these make for joy in
life. And they are the
birthright of everyone.
Enjoy the blessed privi
lege of health. Make your
life really worth living. To
be physically fit it is only
necessary to obey the
laws of health, the first of
which is-maintain a clean
intestinal system.
Nujol works on an en
tirely new principle.
Instead of forcing or irritating
the system, it simply softens
the food waste. This enables
the many tiny muscles in the
walls of the intestines, contract
ing and expanding in their nor
mal way, to squeeze the food
waste along so that it passes
naturally out of the system.
Nujol thus prevents constipa
tion because it helps Nature
maintain easy, thorough bowel
movements at regular intervals
-the healthiest habit in the
world.
Nujol is absolutely harmless
and pleasant to take. Try it.
Nujol is sold by all druggists in sealed bottles only, bearing Nujol trade
mark. Write Nujol Laboratories, Standard Oil Co. (New Jersey),
50 Broadway, New York, for booklet, 4'Thirty Feet of Danger".
