“clean money,” but rarely is. this so
literally true as in the following in
cident *which occurred some time
ago in the Commercial Depository.
A colored woman presented to the
cashier at the window a number of
bills which, although a little wom-
looking, were very crisp and smooth.
To the cashier’s remark about the
freshness ot the money the colored
customer replied, “Yas, sir, I always
washes and irons all my money.”

DUNCAN WORKMAN, son of
Mrs. Nene D. Workman who is a
senior at Clemson college, was
among the 35 students enrolled as
flying cadets who have recently
completed the ground training course
with the highest average yet attained
by a Clemson class. Duncan’s friends
will be interested to know his aver
age was among the highest in the
group.
Uttle VIRGINIA PAYNE, daugh
ter of Mr. and Mrs. H. D. Payne, who
is kno^ by family and friends as
“Jinny,” seems to have had quite the
time of’her young life on a recent
trip to Atlanta. She “could hardly
wait to “buy a room,” as she terms
registering. The greatest thrill of the
trip was a ride on an escalator, and
Jinny could hardly be persuaded to
get off. Another modem device, the
electric eye, which opens doors for
incomers by means of light rays, also
charmed our httie friend. Upon her
retium Jinny was relating by tele-
|>hone to Miss Nancy Owens the ex
periences of her trip when the con
versation was held up by giggles.
She later explained she was laugh
ing to think how she almost called
the escalator an alligator, as she
used to call the elevator.
