The graduating class at Clemson numbered twenty five, but this number represents only about half of those who had completed the col lege course and were entitled to graduate. Inasmuch, however, as the beginning of the scholastic year has been changed from December to September and the com mencement period changed from February to June, the faculty decided to divide tbe class, graduating half the number now and the other half next June. This forces half the class to remain over their time, but it ia quite agreeable to the young gen tlemen as many of them had expressed a desire to remain and take a post graduate course The beautiful nuptials of Mr. Luther E.
