The Japanese may have been sincere In their proteststlons that they have no land grabbing intention*. But at Tal leyrand defined diplomacy, language Is given todonchal purposes.

At this year’s commencement forty fine young fel lows wore graduated. 1‘ive of that number took the Agricultural Course And may be expected to remain in the State and become good farmers. Ktcht took the courses 'n Civil and Mechanical Electrical Engineering and twenty more were graduated in Elec trical and Mechanical Engineering. Most of the above twenty-eight gradu ates will leave the State, as they can get better positions and pay In the ''Northern and Middle West States than here. Five were graduated in Textile In dustry and may stay in the home cot ton mills while the one In Metallurgy will probably be worth’more than gold to the Piedmont country. - Clemson Is a good and great school, but the young men It sends out of the ittute are wrirth many times the Immi grants that Commissioner, Watson brings In. It was stated that the demand for «ome of these graduates up North was «o pressing snd Insistent tint they did n't take time after receiving their di plomas to go to their ro*pectlve home* to bid good-bye to the fathers and mothers who had made great sacrifice* to secure the education of their sons. It’s human nature of course hi these young scientist* to go where the most money Is, but the State that so well equips them for sueress in the battle -of life should be paid hack by them the cost of their collegiate courses as ad- ■vanced by the State. That would ena ble more to be educated a* beneficiaries in the Agricultural Course, and if there is onp greater need In South Carolina It U for trained scientific farmer exem plars In every county. Moreover, these Clemson boys should not be better treated than the Citadel beneficiaries, who are required by law to teach for two year* in the public schools of the Stat or to pay back In money the cost oi their keeping for lour years.
