STATE HCnoiJURSair PROBE.
Applicants for lkmettViory Scholar
siUps and Free Tuitkin in State Col?
lege Will Be Investigated.
Columbia. April 18.?The last gen?
eral assembly passed a law which
requires the State board of charities
and corrections, to examine into the
flnancial ability of applicants ,and
tlart of parents and guardtans of ap?
plicants, for bvneflciary scholarships
and free tuition in the State institu?
tions for higher education. The law
Wae pissed as a compromise to the
demand of denominational colleges
that ?eps be taken to put them on
some degree of parity with State col-1
leges In the matter of free tuition and (
scholarships.
The law provides that the State
board of charities and corrections I
shall report the results of Its invest!- I
gation? to the boards of trustees of |
State colleges who are to grant or re?
fute free tuition or beneficiary schol?
ar! hips as they see fit. Provision is
made in the act for appeal from the
decision of any board of trustees to
th<. State board of education which
can reveres or confirm the action of
th<< trustees In so far as the same re-1
let as to ktw or fact.
In rocent opinions, Mr. C. N, Sapp, I
tho new assistant attorney general,
hats passed, at the request of the
State hoard of charities aad correc?
tions, on some of the provisions of I
the act. Mr. Sapp has held that the
law applies only to those beneficiary
scholarships the granting of which 1s
conditioned upon the inability of the
applicant his parents br guardian to
pay tuition or tuition and other fees
at ths State college offering the schol?
arship. Mr. Sapp has held further
that applicants for beneficiary schol-J
arehlps must first pass the com?
petitive examinations successfully be?
fore It Will be necessary for the State
heard of* charities and corrections to
Investigate their financial ability and!
that of their parents and guardian*.
At a conference early In April, rep?
r?sentatives of the State colleges and
the secretary of the State board of
caaritl?? and corrections reached an
agreement which will facilitate the
Investigations of the' board.' |
'The colleges will see that each ap?
plicant for free tuition knows of the
provisions.ot .the.new law requiring
investigation by ths State board of
charities and corrections. Hereafter,
wfc?h (he adrent <>v guardian of a j
prospective student at a Stato college
or the student himself asks for free)
ruiUOn.'the Hlleire'win s#rM him a|
blank ?in which v/irt he printed "When
this blank Is properly filled out, free
tuition will be granted pending furth?
er Investigation by the State board of
charities and corrections, as Is requtr-1
ed by law." After this blank Is filled
oat end returned to the college to
which application for free tuition has
been made, it will be filed with the
State board of charities and correc-1
tieits. In this way, all applicants for
f reo tuition and parents and guardians
of applicants will be advised of the
lnv>eetigatlon.
The State colleges will fue with the
State board of charities and correc?
tions the names and addressee of ap?
plicants for beneficiary scholarships,
and the names and addressee of par?
ed It aad guardians of such applicants,
who succeed in passing the competi?
tive examinations. It ?d?tion to the
names of the applicants, the colleges
wlu send the board the Information
which such applicants and their par?
ents or guardtans are now required to I
give in rerard to their financial abll-1
Uy.
The new law under which tho State
board of charities and corrections ,1s 1
required to procoed does not apply
to beneficiary scholarships or grants
of free tuition now In force. But It
does apply to l>eneflclary scholarships
which are to bo awarded or renewed
at the beginning of tho session of
1116-17 when one of tho conditions
ander which t hsecaohrl ep meyhh h
under which the scholarships are giv?
en Is the inability of the holder, his
parents or guardian, to pay tuition or
tuition and other foes. It applies, too,
to grants of free tuition which are to
be renewed or awarded at the begin?
ning of the 1916-17 session.

President J. Z. Hearon, of the Re?

ed Secretary Renrdon to urge the
business establishments of Sumtor to
got busy ordering a good supply of
appropriate souvenirs for the ap?
proaching trade drawing, advertising,
and Sumtcr tobacco market booster
trips of the association in connection
with the Sumtcr Chamber of Com?
merce, and P^ost Q, of Sumter, Trav?
elers' Protective Association.
The time .for the first booster trip
has been set for about May 15th, and
this is done in order to givo the mer?
chants, bankers, manufacturers, and
others amplo tlmo to purchase their
advertising souvenirs.
White arranging for their seuvenlrs
the merchants will also do well to
purchase a good supply of suitable
pennants and bunting, with which to
decorate their cara These Sumter
pennants and bunting can be purchas?
ed very cheap. If a number of business
establishments will get together and
send In a good sized order. The
busting and pennants can be used
time and again, not only for booster
trips, but fcr decorating their places
of business on other special occasions,
if fast color, good material is pur?
chased.
It has been suggested that during
the three day summer course of the

daring the month of June, at the
Oirls'* High school, and which will be
attended by hundreds of ladles and
young women from the rural districts,
that-the business establishments of

fronts and having a special window
decorating event in honor of the visit
lna** ladles. T.^ese booster trip pen?
nants and bunting, if taken care of
wilt serve admirably for the store
decorations also.
The business men hould get to?
gether, appoint a special committee on
purchasing of souvenirs and appro?
priate ojcorating material for auto?

in so doing. Buying together lessens

PLAN STEP FOR PREPAREDNESS,
Sumter Business Men Want Aid of
Farm Expert to Tench Farmer? Di?
versification.
At yesterday's meeting of business
men with the Chamber of Commerce
directors, in support of well defined
plans for crop diversification in
preparation for the cotton boll weevil
by preparing sullicient marketing fa?
cilities, intelligent marketing, cream
routes, livestock raising, etc., it was
decided that it would be a mighty good
thing to do to hack up with some
money the plans of Clemson College
and the United States Department of
Agriculture.
It wan deemed advisable to co?
operate frith Clemson College by not
only hoi ling public meetings over the
entire county between" bankers, farm?
ers, and merchants, but also to find
out If Clemson will send an expert on
diversification to put in his entire time
for say One year going from farm to
farm talking and explaining methods
of diversification in a scientific and in
a practical manner, and telling the
farmers just what the cotton boll wee?
vil will do when It gets here, what
harm It has done where It Is now and
has been, and what has been done to
remedy the harm done by the boll
weevil.
Secretary Reardon was ordered to
write Clemson College to ascertain
what such an expert will cost, with a
view of ascertaining whether enough
money can be raised by popular sub?
scription to get such a man. As soon
as Dr. Long of Clemson is heard from,
a meeting will be called, provided
Clemson College can provide such a
competent'man within the financial*
means of the Chamber of Commerce
and RetafTT)ealer8' Association.
That the Sumter business men must
work with .the farmers was emphasiz?
ed at yesterday's meeting, but that
Clem son's financial resources are also
limited, and that the Sumter business
men can "afford to spend some money
to help the farmers was emphatically
emphasised too. Get together meet?
ings are alright, but substantial finan?
cial aid, and practical educational
methods, mixed with good fellowship
and cooperation ,are what the Cham?
ber of Commerce wants to see set in
motion, aad wants to see rapid transit
movement on the high gear too.
Such an expert, putting in his en
tiro time in the rural districts, will
be of great cooperative value to Local
Farm Demonstrator J. F, Williams,
who has more work in ordinary rou
(t; ? rtutf: s than he can do like ho
wl nte to do it. Tho emergency de?

BILL FOR MORE OFFICERS.
House Adopts Measure Doubling
Number of Cadets at West Point.
Washington, April 17.?A bill dou?
bling the number of cadet's at the
West Point Military academy, the
second of the preparedness measures
to go through both branches of con?
gress, was passed by the house today
after it had been amended to elimi?
nate a section which would have au?
thorized the president to fill va?
cancies at the beginning of a scholas?
tic year from the alternates whose
principals . had entered. A similar
bill doubling the personnel at the
Naval academy was signed by the
president several weeks ago.
The section stricken out of the
military academy bill was opposed on
the ground that it too greatly in?
creased the power of tho president.
The bill .vTU go at once t? Coh'ferehce?
