. WHAT OUR WINTHROP GIRLS ARE DOING, I KINDERGARTEN EXTENSION-; ?AY GROUND MOVEMENT-LEG- j LATURE HIGHLY COMMENDED. (Written for taut week'i issue). Winthrop College, Rock Hill, March 6L? The college kindergarten .girls are keeping up a kindergarten at the Wymojo mills. They are doing a great work,getting the parents interested in the education of their children. These mills are joining the back campus, and the kindergarten k has recently been named "The Little Neighbor." Miss Macfeat and other members of the faculty are conducting a night school over in the mill village for the 0/ benefit of the over-grown boys and girls who cannot read and write. They have a four-room cottage for their school-house. A reading room has been provided for, and the pupils have access to school books and literature. Mr Moore, the president of the mills, has become interested and is helping as much as he can. Winthrop is taking part in the "play-ground movement" which is now spreading over the country. Play-grounds are being prepared on the campus to which the children of the town and mill section will be asked to come and play. This is intended to provide for the play-deveiopment of children who have no place except the streets in which to play. In an address made here some weeks ago by Dr Heatherington, the need of well organized play both in the city and in the country was stressed. Seven whole States and a number of counties in other States already have systems of organized play. The appropriation made by the State for a science building is greati ly appreciated. At present the scii ence rooms are scattered over the I main building from the first floor up I to the fifth. It is a good thing that L the work done in climbing five long flights of stairs up to the chemistry * joom can soon be utilized in work which will have better results. S * A wrong impression has been circulated about the vast number of im? _*AL;? AL - A. provements maae wunin me pa?w few years. Only three buildings have been added to the college plant in sixteen years,and some of the money put in these was donated by people not in this State. Walter H Page, editor of the "World's Work," has recently given a number of books to the Winthrop library. Or Joyne3 has given a lot adjoining the capr 'jA for the students' building. The literary societies and the Young Women's Christian association are raising the building fund. Some time during the year each of the literary societies gives a play. "David (jkrrick" was presented by the Curry Literary society last Monday night. We shall have the Wofford College gymnasium exhibition in the auditorium next Monday evening. An interesting entertainment is expected. The Winthrop College Alumnae J association has made a change in the jjk place of meeting in Columbia on March 25, 1911. The meeting was to have been held at the State House, but this has been changed to Marion street school at 10:30 a. m. on above date. All former students of Winthrop,whether graduates or not, are asked to come to this meeting. EG H. Attacks School Principal. * A severe attack on school principal, Chas B Allen of Sylvania, Ga. is t thus told by him. "For more than I three years." he writes, "I suffered j indescribable torture from rheumaA tism. liver and stomach trouble and B diseased kidneys. All remedies failed till I used Electric Bitters, but four bottles of this wonderful remedy cured me completely." Such reMRH suits are common. Thousands bless ^^Bthem for curing stomach trouble, ^^wfsmale complaints, kidney disorders, B^^biliousr.ess and for new health and H H g Try them. Only otic at M L FROM CLEMSON COLLEGE. Farm Demonstration Agents Meet - College and Campus Notes. Clemson College, March 4:?During the first two days of the week Clemson had as her guest Mr Bradford Knapp and his farm demonstration agents of the Piedmont section. Twenty-five of these aRents were present, and all were entertained in barracks. Mr Knapp, Dr Knapp's son, responded to a short address of welcome by President Riggs and insisted that his men should recognize that the agricultural college is to the demonstration agents what the implement factory is to the farmer. The agricultural college must furnish the necessary information which the agents disseminate. His remarks along this line were well received, and the spirit of co-operation which was manifest is evidenced by the following resolution: "Be it resolved, by the farm demonstration agents of the Piedmont section of South Carolina, That we tender our sincere thanks and appreciation of the most hearty welcome and hospitality extended us by President Riggs and the faculty of Clemson College during our meeting at the college February 28 and March 1. We wish to assure President Riggs and the faculty of the college that we are heartily in sympathy with the institution.and pledge our hearty co-operation with her and all her forces in the up-building and development of the agricultural resources of the State. (Signed) W R Elliott, J W Rothrock, C M Morgan, L C Chappell, Committee." Mr J M Gasque, who for a number of years has held the position of assistant to the Commandant, has resigned; it is not yet known wh<j will take his place. The meeting of the board of trustees will convene Monday, March 6. The fifth of the series of lyceum entertainments was given in the Memorial hall last Saturday night, February 25, by Spragues. The entertainment was a costume play of "Rip Van Winkle" in four acts. The play was well rendered,and all whose good fortune enabled them to attend came away highly pleased. Another attraction of great note was the entertainment given by the "Festival Quartette" on March 1. This quartette is composed of four of the greatest singers on the stage, and we were very loriunaie in getting them to come to Clemson. Dr W D Weatherford, Interdenominational Secretary of the Young Men's Christian association, is conducting a series of meetings here. Dr Weatherford is known throughout the South as an eloquent and forceful speaker. His wide experience with college men gives him a keen insight into their lives. His able and helpful addresses have been well attended by the students. Instead of the regular drill of Friday, Captain Stokes kindly gave the cadets permission to hear Dr Weatherford in chapel. On Friday evening he delivered an address on "The Freedom of Manhood." It was one of the best addresses ever made here. Dr Weatherford will be here with us until Sunday.

Besides, prettiness is the only fit surround* ing for any child. You need a chiffonier and bureau in white enamel (perhaps we can show you how to do over your present pieces) a good brass or iron crib with sides high enough to keep baby from falling, a rocking chair, straight back chair and small table, also in white. These with a pretty rug, dainty wall. paper, and muslin curtains, complete the room. Be careful to get a STEARNS k FOSTER mattress, for it is the best. To a child, good sleep means good health, a sturdy body, a fresh, retentive mind. Even nervousness is often due to lack ?f really sound sleep. Get a STEARNS k FOSTER for the crib to-day.
