THE CITADEL o o'-:' o ?\0O 0 o o oooooooooo The failure of the railroads to give reasonably cheap rates for transport ing the cadet corps to Jacksonville in April makes the proposed en camp pnent at that place seem rather doubt ful. This information was given ou. with reluctance\by the Cltadsl author ities as all of the cadets have been looking forward to tho trip for sont? time and the announcement has caus ed distinct disappointment among them. As yet. nothing deflate has befcn announced as to where the new osmb Bite will be but it is more than likely,that ? placo near, the rifle range at Mo?nt Pleasant will be selected. . Th? members or tho Senior FjyslCs elective stood the civil ?ei rice ex amination at the postofflos h<re last week.. , Tho position to which they desire to become eligibh Is aid in tin; liureuu ol Standards A special meeting of Hl? Cadet V. M. '.'. A. was hold In I he chapel last Sunday night. A musical program was rendered h> several ladies of the city and (he cadet quartette. "The Marks of a .Man'' was the subject of tin forceful and interesting address given I? Mr. W. It. I.nek. supervisor of municipal playground in Charles Ion. Many of the uiidcr-clasMiicn look advantages of the special leave by escorting I heir feminine friends to the occasion. A tire which was gaining consider able headway was discovered tu the weed shop Just over the engine room Sunday morning nboul .vir?. Fire call was sounded by the bugler and (ho companies were formed on the quad rangle where orders were given for the room orderlies to "fall out" and get buckets. The caduls, however, failed to make much progress as the shop was so full of smoke that it* was impossible Im enter it. A still alarm was sent the city department who In a short while succeeded in extermin ating the blaze. This Is the first fire Unit lias visited the Citadel in a long limn und but for its timely discovery might have proven serious. Consid erable excitement existed for a while but there was no disorder whatso ever. ooooooooooooooooo o o o FRAZER FITTING SCHOOL o o> o ooooooooooooooooo The past week has ' ecn a good be ginning on the last torm of school. It was also very marked by being one continuous week of line weather in which we could all feel tine and do good work. The appeal of the bowling alley Is still strong but the sunshine \culls some to baseball anil the plans of others tend toward ueltlne the ten nis court in shape und' phrying ten-v nis. The problem Is, will the lxiys with these 'attractions still stick to their studies? ; They must not fail to remember that their studies are of prime Im portance and should have lirst place. All the sports are good if lessons are not neglected. None of the boys have challenged Prof. Harden to bowl as yet, although there have been offers of two prizes bqered to the boy who succeed in not bowling the members of the faculty. Possibly the boys are practicing up and yet intend to try their teachers skill on the alley. There is also a prize of $2.00 offer ed to the studeut of the fitting school who will win u match of tennis from Prof ParkB. Prof. Parks to give a handicap of 15. Besides this a prize of $2.00 is offer ed to the best tennis team in school and Si.00 for the winner of a tourna ment. All entrants to be members ol the fitting school. There must be at least four teams eutcr in doubles and eight players ie the singles any number, however, may enter. For further information those who may desire to enter may call -~n Prof. Parks. It remains to he seen who is the best bowler and best tennis player In Abe Frazer Fitting School.

Not withstanding the rain, the trustee's and patrons with a great many neigh bors, came with lunch boxes which we sold for about thirty cents each, then having two cake walks. We made a nice little sum of ten dollars. We will use u part of this money prrparing for Held day. The children are delightd with the Idea of getting tu attend Held day. and are trying luirl to prepare for it. Moth teachers and pupils are expecting a nice day. Last \enr we bought a new three hundred dollar piano. Hy havlug lit tle parties of different kinds we have almost puld for it. Once the young people of the com munity, who have finished school, ar ranged a good play for us from which we realized f-.irty-ftv*? dollars. Then another thing was to have a pig. One of the patrons gave him to j iiH, a tiny baby, and we found nearly twenty dollars In him when school riosod. We fed him almost entirely on the scrapes from the lunch bar,kcia. Sometimes the children would bring htm little b?cket? of milk. I think by the time we have our convention again, and have a play we are planning, we will have finished paying for the piano. The piano is so much help In the opening exercises. The honor roll for this month will appnar lu this paper later In the week.
