For the Clemson man, especially for the one who is just graduating, his Annual, next to his diploma and his friendships, should be the dearest possession that he takes with him upon leaving College; for it will always be with him to remind him of the old friends and associations, long after the passing years have taken the realities from him ; and within its pages it will permit him to live again those happiest days of all that have been his to spend. Such, then, should be the object of the Annual, and this object the Editors have endeavored to accomplish. To the Clemson boy, these pages will explain themselves; but for the uninitiated, some further interpretation may be necessary — and therein will lie half the pleasure for the owner of the Annual; for is there anything that can surpass the delight of going over our College experiences with our friends ? That every Clemson boy may find something of interest in tins volume, and that from it the outsider may get some idea of the active and varied life here at Clemson, is the parting wish of THE EDITORS. ijanani nf tailors L.

C, where his early youth was spent in raising chickens, and lie still holds that there is no higher authority on this subject than himself.

September 3rd. 1885. but never had the pleasure of putting it to any official service until appointed Adjutant of the Corps of Cadets at Clemson. He received his early education in the Union Graded Schools, where he probably did well, judging from what he has accomplished since he entered Clemson, Sep- tember 5th. 1903. for he was easily the leader of section.

CHARLES THEODORE POTTINGER CORPORAL, SERGEANT What studies please, what most delight. And fill men ' s thoughts, they dream them o ' er at night. Theo is another one of our Georgia Crack- ers, who chose wisely and well when he entered Clemson in September, ' 03, and took up the Elec- trical Course. Pottie was born in Savannah, Ga., November gth, 1887, and was educated up to the Clemson point in the Savannah Graded and High Schools, and in the Savannah Preparatory School. Savannah still has this Georgian ' s heart, though he has thought seriously of the op- portunities afforded by the city of Columbia. Pot- tinger was a member of the Art Staff of the ' 06 Annual, Chief Art Editor on the staff of the ' 07 Annual, and member of the Senior Dancing Club. Although Theo lias artistic inclinations, yet he will never give up Electricity; for he will soon take charge of the Savannah Electric Company, whose Board of Directors has been anxiously awaiting his graduation.

He sho ild have been born in some place abounding in sen- timental traditions, and having a poetic atmos- phere, but he absent-mindedly stopped in the live town of St. Matthews, and so far his poetic im- pulses have been balked. This catastrophe oc- curred on July 16, 1886. His first schooling was in the St. Matthews Graded School. However, being a young man of high ideals, and desiring a closer communion with Nature than he could get in St. Matthews, he came to Clemson in January, 1904, and took the Agricultural course.

IN THE northwestern corner of South Carolina, almost at the upper limit of the Piedmont Belt, and lying partly in Oconee county and partly in Pickens, there is an estate — some thirteen hundred acres — of forest and farm. This estate is to-day the scene of immense activity, since here it is that the boys of South Carolina are being fitted to assume their share in increasing industrial activity of their State ; and here it is, also, that they are learning that obedience to authority, and that regard for law and order which are prime essentials in good citizenship ; for it is on this land that Clemson Agricultural and Mechanical Col- lege stands and grows year by year, rapidly making itself one of the indispensible among the educational institutions of the State. The idea of a college like Clemson had its beginning in the great Farmers ' Alliance movement of 1886, when the farmers began to see the need of agricultural education in order to fully develop the great resources of the State. The will of Thomas G. Clemson, probated in 1888, gave in trust to the State 61 of South Carolina, the old homestead of John C. Calhoun, together with about Soo.ooo in securities, for the founding and maintaining of the Clemson Agricul- tural College — thus exactly carrying out the farmers ' idea. In 1889. The General Assembly accepted Mr. Clemson ' s bequest, and chartered the college : and in 1890. the Trustees began the work of building. The doors of Clemson College were first opened to students on July 6th, 1893. The main building was burned in May. 1804. but this was not allowed to interfere with recitations: so that, with the exception of the annual vacations, the college has been in continuous operation since the first year, being now just in process of rounding out its fourteenth session, with more than four hundred graduates to its credit, graduates who are to-day holding important positions in almost every department of industry. The object of Mr. Clemson ' s bequest was. primarily, the establishment of an agricultural college : but the demand for education and training along other lines has made it necessary to supply other departments. With the present equipment the college affords six four-year courses, each leading to the degree of 1!.S. : Agriculture : Agriculture and Animal Industry ; Metallurgy and Geology : Mechanical and Electrical Engineering: Civil Engineering: Textile Industry. Each of these courses, while specializing thoroughly in the direction its name indicates, is yet broad enough in scope to give an excellent grounding in English. History and Political Economy, thus giving the student as many advantages of a liberal education as the necessary limited time will allow. The only tax used in keeping up the college is that levied on fertilizers, a tax that, from its nature, is derived from all sections of the State: and that has never become a perceptible burden. Though the income from this source is con- siderable, it still leaves no large margin for the great expenditures that must need be made in supporting such an institution. For this is no ordinary college where books and board are the main requisites : Clemson is a small municipality in itself, exercising all the functions of a city government, from the building of roads and streets, to the supplying of water, sewerage, heat, light, and power. While Clemson must exist, it must also grow to meet the yearly increasing demands upon it. The fact that more than two hundred South Carolina boys were last year denied admittance for lack of room shows the need for this growth. The management has realized this, and has commenced the construction of a new dormitory that will give room for two hundred additional cadets : the new power plant, just being completed, provides for an expansion that can cope with any reasonable increase for several vears to come. 62 CAMPUS VIEWS |L B 2H£ £t J ff% ' fcl dfrw 1 111 KjA ' ,j|lll l t TH ' I ni -i -n i iElrrtriral Elrpartmrnt T HE electrical course, though generally admitted to he one of the most difficult at college, has neverthe- less always been very popular, not only because of the opportunities for advancement which are afforded in this line of work, but also because of the fascination of the subject itself. In spite of the large number of graduates in the various colleges of the country, the demand for the technical graduate, due to the intense activity in all branches of electrical engineering, is still far in excess of the supply, so the young man here finds a comparatively uncrowded field. It is obviously impossible to turn out a finished engineer in a four-year ' s course, and no attempt is made to do this, the design being rather to give the student a good scientific basis on which he may afterwards build, and at the same time to make his education as broad as possible. With this object in view, good courses are given in English, History. Political Economy, Geology, Chemistry. Physics, and Mathematics, besides the purely technical subjects such as mechanics, mechanical and electrical engineering. In connection with this, instruction is given in shop work, drawing, and electrical laboratory. For the latter purpose there are two special and separate buildings. The Junior or Instrument Laboratory was built in 1896 and is 64 PROF. R1CGS especially designed for electromagnetic work, having no iron or other magnetic material in its construction. It is well equipped with galvanometers, resistance boxes, and other necessary apparatus. The Senior or Dynamo Laboratory was designed and built by Professor Riggs in the summer of 1900. It is a single story brick structure containing, besides the laboratory, a lecture room and dark room for work with the X-ray and photometer. Its equipment of generators and motors together with all instruments for use in connection with them is one of the best in the South. Because of the thoroughness of the course, Clemson graduates compare favorably with those of the great Northern colleges and a glance at the records will show that they hold positions of responsibility and importance. ELECTRICAL LABORATORY 65 H Z UJ H UJ Q -J z X u CD UJ z UJ u CD ■i. MM 1 1 j T feTV AGRICULTURAL HALL Agrtntltural foparimntt THIS department of the college has made wonderful progress since the com- pletion of the Agricultural Hall in 1904, and now offers a very broad and com- prehensive course of study. L ntil that time, it had no building of its own, and consequently was very much hampered ; but now with increased facilities, it offers every inducement to the student of the Natural Sciences. Besides the Academic work, the Agricultural Course provides for instruc- tion in agronomy, horticulture, animal husbandry, chemistry, veterinary science, geology, mineralogy, botany, bacteriology and entomology. All the buildings used by this department are now equipped with first-class apparatus, and will in a short while be as good as any in the South ; for, the increasing number of students who are pursuing this course will necessitate enlarge- 67 ment, both of laboratory room, and of the corps of instructors. The Chemical Laboratory is already said to be the best equipped in the South. The handsome new green-house has been com pleted, and is an ornament to the campus, besides being a modern building for scientific purposes. Besides these buildings, the following are used by this department : Veterinary Hospital, which is under the management of Dr. Klein : the dairy and barns, which are superintended by Prof. Michels ; and the Experiment Station, in charge of Mr. Garrison, which is located about three-fourths of a mile from the campus. We can truthfully say that this is the broadest course offered at Clemson College, and no man who has completed this course can say that he hasn ' t derived great benefit from being brought closer to Nature, by a better understanding of her laws as taught by this department.

[891, by Col. M. B. Hardin, Pro- fessor of Chemistry and Chief Chemist, with Messrs. Sims and Shiver as Assistant Chemists. These two gentlemen had been connected with the Fertilizer De- partment at the South Carolina College and were re- tained as Assistant Chemists by Col. Hardin, when the work of Fertilizer Analysis, State Analytical Work and the Chemical Work of the Experiment Station were transferred to his control in Columbia in the winter (if [890. Mr. J. P. Smith, then Secretary of the Board of Fertilizer Control, was also quartered in this building until the necessity for a Senior balance room arose in 1895. In November, [891, Dr. R. X. Bracken, who had been elected Associate Professor of Chemistry, reported by order of the Board of Trustee for duty and joined the little party, with the expectation that the college would open the following February. ( )wing. however, to unavoidable delays in the completion of the main college building, the opening was postponed until July. 1803. Work incident to Fertilizer Inspection, the analysis of material sent on by people of the State, the chemical work of the Experiment Station, and COL. HARDIX 70 the equipment of the building for Academic work kept the occupants of the building busy. Col. Hardin not only directed all the work but found time for occasional analysis himself. At this time Mr. Shiver was made Assistant Professor of Agricultural Chemistry. As all of the work of the department increased from year to year, it became evident by 1898-99 that larger quarters were an absolute necessity. The new building that bears 1900 was, therefore, erected. This building was completed and equipped in 1901. In order to fill the vacancies or add to the force necessary to do the constantly increasing work of the department, the following men served or are working in the department : Mr. C. W. Sims, resigned. Mr. C. McDonnell, Assistant Chemist Experiment Station. Mr. John Thompson, resigned. Mr. F. C. Atkinson, resigned. Mr. W. E. Dickinson, connected with the Experiment Station. Mr. J. EI. Mitchell, Experiment Station Work. Mr. D. H. Henry, Assistant Chemist Experiment Station and Assistant Professor of Chemistry. Mr. Benj. Freeman, Assistant in Chemistry. The work of the Department is Academic, State Analytical, and Experi- ment Station. The State work includes the analysis of Commercial Fertilizers in connection with the Fertilizer Inspection, analysis of materials sent in by peo- ple of the State, analysis for and in co-operation with the Experiment Station, and analysis for the State Geologist, Mr. Earl Sloan. The work is all done under the immediate supervision of Col. M. B. Hardin, Chief Chemist. The analysis of Commercial Fertilizers are made by Mr. McDonnell as first assistant in charge. The analysis of specimens sent in by people of the State are mainly made by Prof. Henry. Materials sent in by the State Geologist are analyzed by Mr. Robertson. The work for the Experiment Station is clone mainly by Prof. Shiver, though during Prof. Shiver ' s illness in 1899, Mr. McDonnell carried out an investigation on rice ; and Mr. McDonnell has, also, for the past two years, been engaged in the investigation of the production of starch from the sweet potato. H. P. Lykes. 7i ga %fll (Ctuii Engineering Bepartmeni T I IE report of the first curriculum committee of the Board of Trustees, which was adopted July 29th. 1891. two years prior to the opening of the college, provided for extensive courses in me- chanical and civil engineering. This clause seems, however, to have been overlooked; for when the faculty was elected, no provision was made for instruc- tion in civil engineering, only mechanical and electrical engineering being provided for. This condition of affairs continued for some years. From the beginning, however, a brief course in surveying was given by the Mathematical De- partment, in connection with the work in trigo- nometry. In President Craighead ' s report to the Board of Trustees in 1896. we find the following: If. as was once contemplated by the Board, students desiring it 72 PROF. BRODIE are to have instruction in civil engineering, I recommend that this work be assigned to Assistant Professor Brodie, of the Mathematical Department. This report was adopted, and in 1897 a course was provided in mechanical and civil engineering, corresponding to the previously established course in mechanical and electrical engineering. These courses, as then arranged, were identical through the Sophomore class, the choice between the courses being made at the beginning of the Junior year. This plan was continued until 1903, when the curriculum was rearranged, and the civil engineering was given larger recogni- tion among the published courses of the college. This course, as it has been from the beginning, is now under the direction of Prof. P. T. Brodie, who is at the head of the Department of Mathematics and Civil Engineering. He is aided by an adequate corps of assistants, consisting of Profs. Houston, Martin, Hunter, Shanklin, and Johnston. This department not only includes the civil engineer- ing but also the thorough course of the college in pure mathematics. Until recently, the number of students who chose the course was compara- tively small ; but the}- have usually been earnest men and an examination of the records will show that the civil engineers who have been graduated from the institution stand amongst the foremost of the successful Alumni of the college. Here, as at other institutions, the interest in civil engineering has recently received a marked impulse ; and the course is fast growing in popularity. This may be attributed to many causes, among which may be mentioned the rapid increase in the South of railroads and other engineering developments. This has consequently made the demand for engineers greater and has caused a larger number to study civil engineering in this and other colleges. The class of ' 07 will graduate fifteen civil engineers. The training in civil engineering, as now provided here, is thorough in every particular, and compares favorably with that of any other similar southern institution. In connection with the technical studies, liberal training is given in English, History, Economics and pure Mathematics, as well as the Physical Sciences. In common with the other engineering course of the college, the course also embraces a larger amount of drawing, shop work, mechanical engineering and laboratory practice — all of which is adapted to the needs of the civil engineer. The distinctive work pursued by students in this course includes the study of land surveying and plotting, topographic surveying and mapping; location, construction, and maintenance of roads, railroads, streets and pavements ; strength of building materials, masonry construction, foundations on land and in water, analytic and graphic investigations of stresses in girders, roofs, and bridges, and the design of these structures ; the principles of hydraulics as applied to dams, reservoirs, canals, municipal water works, and the development of water power. The course is intended to prepare young men for entrance upon professional 73 practice in some of the many branches of civil engineering, and also to meet the needs of those who having been engaged in engineering work without a course of instruction, desire to equip themselves for more successful competition with those who have had such instruction. G. D. Curtis. 74 ®exttle iepartmmt PROF. DOGGETT REALIZING the importance and growing magni- tude of the cotton manufacturing industry of the South, the Board of Trustees voiced the sentiments of the citizens of South Carolina by deciding to establish, in 1898, the Textile Department of Clemson College. This was made possible by utilizing fifteen thousand dollars of the annual appropriation and by donations of equipment from numerous builders of cotton mi ll ma- chinery. The equipment did not long meet the require- ments of necessary instruction to the aspiring numbers who wished to avail themselves of this course ; so in 1900 it was found necessary to increase the size of the building and to install therein more machinery. Since that time new and improved machinery has been con- the equipment is not surpassed by any school in this stantly added until now country. The building was constructed along the plan of a modern cotton mill, being a two story brick structure with basement, and equipped with automatic fire 75 .prinklers and a humidifying system. The first floor is occupied by recitation rooms, carding and spinning rooms, and office. On the second floor are the weaving and designing departments, recitation rooms and museum. The base- ment contains the dyeing, bleaching and mercerizing machinery, and the organic chemical laboratory. On the first floor is also arranged a display and reading room which is used for exhibiting the work done by the students, and in which are kept numerous periodicals pertaining to the industry. The equipment is composed of machines and apparatus obtained from the leading manufacturers of these articles, and includes all that is necessary for the manufacture of numerous textile articles from the raw material to the fin- ished product. The machinery, though, was selected for educational purposes and not for manufacturing. This facilitates more changing in the machines themselves, and gives the student a better chance to familiarize himself with a wide range of products. The machinery of each room is operated by a separate electric motor. Parts of this equipment have been bought direct, while others have been donated, or partly donated by the manufacturer. The value of the equipment is now estimated at about seventy- five thousand dollars. Instruction is given by means of lectures, text books, and by practical appli- cation of the different subjects. This includes instruction in carding, spinning, weaving, designing, organic chemistry, dyeing, cloth analysis. Jacquard design- ing and mill construction. Besides this the student pursues the same academic work as in the other courses of the college: and. until the Junior year, has the regular work as laid down for the Mechanical Course. Thus besides acquiring a thorough knowledge of Textiles he has a good general education leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science. SPINNING AND CARDING MACHINES 76 DORMITORIES AND MAIN BUILDING Arabwttr Srjiartm?ttt i T IS in the Academic Department that the student builds the foundation upon which rests the studies he pursues in the other courses. The student receives a thorough course of instruction in Mathematics, Eng- lish, History, Political Economy, German ami French. Though the two latter subjects have only been added recently, they are proving very popular, especially with the Juniors and Seniors. The requirements in Mathematics are high, as those who take the Electrical and Civil Engineering Courses have to meet them by the end of the Junior year, so as to be ready for the engineering work in the Senior year. The course in English is very thorough. The student is first taught the principles of rhetoric and composition ; he then pursues the study of American and English literature. In the Senior year instruction is given in literary criticism. A somewhat full course in Shakespeare is furnished, and several plays are read in class. The course in the History Department includes history of the United States, South Carolina history, general history, commercial geography, and polit ical PROF. C. M. FURMAN 77 economy.

But, obedience is the first duty of a good soldier. We historians agree that the year ' 04 was made more illustrious when the Class of ' 08 was ushered upon Clemson ' s Field of Learning. Never before in the annals of history has so de- termined a band joined forces to seek for that grand prize, knowledge. The State Legislature, with a foresight of our true greatness, caused one hundred scholarships to be competed for that year. Those who were fortunate enough to win one of these, have realized their true worth and have worked hard to hold them. In our Freshman year, a page was entered in our class history recording the deplorable deaths of our fellow class-men, W. W. Coulette, J. T. Weston and J. C. Gossett. The class and the whole corps was made to sorrow on these sad occasions. But we recognized the hand of God and said, His will be done. Of our 252 Freshmen, only 125 returned as Sophomores. We came back with a full recognition of our importance, and with the purpose of taking advan- tage of that immunity that we had dreamed of when the wood was gently. gently falling in our rat days. ' It was this year that we raised one hundred dollars and presented it to the foot ball team, to help buy their implements of warfare. We were also the ' 06 champions in class foot ball. In the summer following, we lost our friend and comrade, Bruce L. Alsbrook, a man who was admired by all. At the opening of the season we were again made to grieve at the untimely death of our beloved comrade. Joseph C. Reaves. The circumstances and shock of his death caused our grief to be more deeply embed- ded, and it was with sad hearts that the 90 Juniors took up their work. Our history has been one of sorrows, but, now at the close of our Junior year we all trust that we may reach the Senior ten-yard line, and then go over for a glorious touch down. J. D.

In this sea, there were dangerous rocks covered with the wreckage of bad record, on which many of the barks of the students who had sailed before us had split. As a result of this forewarning, the majority of our class became aware of this fact and tried to steer clear of all these obstacles ; while, on the other hand, there were some who, seemingly, forgot about these treacherous rocks of Trig.. Math.. Physics. and Chemistry when they had reached the sea of Sophomore, and. consequently, they were stranded on the rocks of examination. At the beginning of the current year, our fleet was increased by a few addi- tional sails from the class of ' 08, who. unfortunately, as a few of ours have done, had failed to struggle with the storm of study, and weather the troubled waters of examination shoals. At the end of the first year ' s cruise, there were 117 under the pilotage of Boyce Wolff, whose proud colors had not been engulfed by the appalling whirlpools of the turbulent waters of the examination port. It has been said that whenever a Freshman lays down his work in June to resume it in September as a Sophomore, he then thinks that he is wiser than any member of the other classes : but I hardly know whether this is true or not with us. The chasm between where we started in Fresh, and the goal we long to reach is still widening: and the more we learn, the less we seem to know, because of the recognition of ever increasing circles of thought and knowledge, which, the higher we rise, appear to grow larger and more difficult to encompass. The Sophomore Class bids fair to be one among the most notable in the 90 history of the college. We have a mighty interest in the welfare of our college, and in the achievement of the welfare, we are bearing no ignorable share. We are trying to cultivate the broad and generous sympathy which throbs in unison with all humanity, feels for every man, and which is interested in everything that concerns the common brotherhood of the entire corps. In the grand orchestra of our college glorification, from an athletic stand- point, our class is playing no discordant trombone. Xo class has a better repres- tation on the Scrub and Varsity foot ball teams, who have been and are making championship names for Clemson College, both at home and abroad, than lias ours. On this team we are represented by McLaurin, Gaston, Britt, Clark and Coles, whose strong defense on the line when they began to buck caused a sickly silence to fall upon all the rooters of our foes. Not only is our class well represented in the arsity eleven, but our record is also good on the track team. Ballew, who proved to be the man that could make the greatest number of tracks in the shortest time, won the laurel for the hundred-yard dash, while Harris, who comes out in the long run, took the prize for the half-mile race. The broadest jump was made by a Sophomore, and the mile relay race was also won by the boys of our class. In the race for the greatest eater, Fleming, who is large and tall in stature, greatly distinguished himself and won the name — The Cracker Man, as well as plenty of cigars to smoke. Though none of the members of our class have, as yet. won medals from the Literary Societies, still ' we are taking an active interest in the development of that phase in college life, and hope to be heard from in the future. In our Freshman year, we were divided into Agricultural and Mechanical sections only ; but when we reached the Sophomore class, there were smaller divisions made, viz. : the Agricultural, Textile-, Metallurgical, Civil, Electrical, and Mechanical sections. Those who were fond of the study of plants and animals, chose the Agricultural Course, while those who were ambitious to become engi- neers, chose either the Mechanical, the Electrical, the Civil, or the Metallurgical course. Though we are divided into these sections apart from each other in our class room and laboratories, nevertheless, as I have elsewhere stated, we are all striving onward together for places of larger promise and greater usefulness. And now as we stand at the eventide of our second college year, permit me to say that never were any higher and more gratifying prospects spread before us ; and we trust that this vista shall not be clouded even with a transient shade. 1 1.

If this large number, only a few had the pleasure of going through Prep. After landing at Clemson in the full bloom of rathood, our first duty was to find our way to the President ' s office and matriculate, and then to be assigned to our rooms by the commandant. Our college career for the first few weeks was exciting. It brought to memory our childhood days, when we had to bring water, sweep, whistle, dance and do all kinds of tricks that were a pleasure : but in this case they only proved to be a pleasure for the old boys. Entrance examinations and longings for home, sweet home have decreased the number of the class to one hundred and ninety-four : but undoubtedly out of this number we have many hidden geniuses who will some day prove their worth as agriculturists, mechanics, electricians, civil engineers, orators and various other men of note. Up to the present our college work has been very satisfactory. A smaller percentage of the boys failed on the first term examinations than in the class 96 of last year, which is a record which we are proud of ; and we trust it will be maintained until the roll call of 1910. May we all then be able to answer here. Although the goal is far away and very difficult to reach, the aim of each of us is to strive to cross the line when the whistle sounds time up. A great responsibility is resting on each Freshman in college, and it is his duty to prepare himself, as the days rapidly pass by, to fill the vacancies of those who are now keeping up the spirit of the college. These places should be filled willingly and bravely, both for maintainence of our self respect, and for the love that we bear for Clemson, and those who have crossed the goal. Let us, united, strive to hold the reputation the college now has, and put forth extra effort for its better development in college spirit. At our first class meeting, held last September, we chose for our president R. H. McFadden. He has ably represented us on the foot ball field, and has ever been on the alert to promote the class spirit of our class. Our other officers are, T. L. Marion, Vice-President : R. P. Henderson, Secretary and Treasurer, and M. M. Roddey, Poet. We are small factors at present, but with proper aims and ambitions we will make the four touch downs, and in 191 o will look back with pride upon the achieve- ments made during our co ' lege days.

THE Young Men ' s Christian Association was founded by a dry goods clerk, George Williams, in London, June 6. 1844, as a result of religious effort among his companions. From here the movement has spread all over the world, to all classes 1 if men. and to all departments of life. The organizations are societies 1 f young men. composed of an active, controlling membership identified with some one of the evangelical churches, and a more numerous associate membership not yet connected with any church. The association seeks to promote the physical, social, mental, and spiritual welfare of its members. The first associations on this continent were organized in December, 1851, at Montreal and Boston, both as a result of information received regarding the societies organized seven years earlier by Williams, in London, England. Forty-more associations were organized within three years. The first international convention was held at Buffalo, N. Y., June 7, 1854, at which a confederation was formed, with a central committee and an annual convention, which lasted until the war between the states. The war greatly diminished the membership ; and the organizations that survived worked chiefly among the soldiers in the field. Both the South and the North helped their armies greatly through the means of their respective associations. After the war the association entered upon a period of growth ; and has been advancing rapidly ever since. The organizations, generally, are as follows : The local association has absolute power of self-government, except, that to affiliate with the international committee, there must be constitutional provisions restricting active (voting and office-holding) membership to men in communion with some evangelical church. 116 The membership consists of two classes ; namely, active, who carry most of the responsibility, and associate, young men of good moral character. The executive officer is a salaried secretary, whose chief responsibility is to supervise, organize, and administer. Most associations have a specially constructed building with re- ception room, offices, reading room, meeting and recreative rooms, educational class-rooms, and quarters for boys ' department. The first well equipped Y. M. C. A. gymnasium was opened in New York in 1869. The departments are: religious, which consists of Bible and worker ' s training classes, evangelistic and devotional meetings, work in behalf of personal purity, and a special, emphasized personal work ; social, which consists of a pleasant resort with companionable supervision, music, recreative grounds, social gatherings and entertainments. The International Committee, which is composed of forty-five members, who reside at different parts of the continent, is incorporated ; and its headquarters and working quorum have been located in New York since 1866 Its employed force on the home field, which has grown steadily from one agent in 1868, at present consists of forty-four secretaries. It has also sixty-four secretaries in foreign fields. Twenty-six states and provincial conventions were held in 1902, attended by 3989 representatives from 935 associations. The first student associations in this country were organized in the Univer- sity of Michigan and the University of Virginia in 1858. In 1877 the thirty scat- tered societies became united into an inter-collegiate movement, for which a secretary has been secured. A body of literature has been created, and The Inter-Collegiate is published monthly. There are at present 763 student associations among the universities and colleges of North America. In institutions where associations are, there are 150,000 students; and, out of this number, there are 45,000 members of Young Men ' s Christian Associations. As a result of this movement, there were 40,000 students won to Christ, there are 4,000 students studying for the ministry, there are 600 student volunteers, and there are over 33,000 students enlisted in private and voluntary Bible study, which has given a strong incentive to Bible study in the curriculum. With the aid of the Student Volunteer Movement for Foreign Missions, which is an outgrowth of the student associations, mission study classes have been -formed, with an annual enrollm nt of 5,000; and over 2,000 students, of whom about two-thirds are men, and have already become missionaries. Summer conferences for the promotion of the religious life of students, commencing in 1886, have spread from Northfield to all sections of these United States, and to so many other lands that in 1895 these associations were federated by organization under American leadership into the World ' s Student Conference Federation, made up of eleven national and industrial members. The Clemson College Young Men ' s Christian Association was organized in 117 1894- through the efforts of Mr. F. S. Brockman. then State Secretary, but now a missionary to China, and Prof. F. P. Harrison, now of Davidson College. Since the beginning of the association it has been doing a good work, and has been growing steadily ; within the last two or three years it has made rapid strides in the upward direction : so that now. as never before, the student body is beginning to realize the true purpose and aim of the association. The work of the association has enlarged very much along all lines, and it is fast assuming that part of college life, which should be its privilege and duty to perform. 118 ®Ijr New Kj at ffitgljt and fown flani AS THE result of an investigation into the advisability of constructing a central heating and power station, thereby procuring greater efficiency of opera- tion and also the necessary increase of available power, an appropriation for the installing of such a plant was made. The plans submitted by Prof. W. M. Riggs, Supt. of Department of Heat, Light and Power, were adopted, and the construc- tion ordered to be commenced at once. The design and equipment of the plant contemplates the carrying of a rather complex load, the heating and lighting of the college buildings and the furnishing of steam and electric power to the various shops and laboratories. The building, which is situated to the rear of the New Barracks, is a single story structure, 84 2 feet long by 40 feet wide, built of granite faced cement blocks backed by selected red brick, with finished mortar joints. The roof is of truss construction, with metal shingles. The building contains five rooms— the boiler room, the engine room, and three smaller rooms, one for oil, another for pumps and feed-water heaters, and the third for bath. The boiler room is finished on the inside with red brick walls, cement floor, and neatly painted trusses and 119 ceiling. The engine room presents an attractive and artistic appearance with its tiled floor, white enameled wainscoating, white plastered walls and white enam- eled trusses and ceiling. The chimney is of artistic design. It stands ioo feet above its foundation. The stack, above its first 25 feet, is built of special white radial brick. The boiler room equipment will consist of two 150 horse power Stirling water tube boilers, and two 100 horse power Lombard horizontal return tubular boilers, the first set operating at a normal pressure of 130 pounds; the latter, at 80 pounds. These boilers arc of such size as to anticipate all power and heating needs for many years to come. The steam heating of the Mechanical, Chemical, and Electrical buildings, in addition to the ( )ld and the Xew Barracks, and Barracks Xo. 2, will be accom- plished by means of the Webster system, exhaust steam from engines being used for the barracks heating. Steam at 130 pounds pressure also will be furnished to the Mechanical and Textile buildings for power purposes. The engine room equipment will consist of a 122 horse power Harrisburg engine direct connected to a 75 K. W. General Electric three wire direct current generator. This unit will be operated for the Edison three wire system of dis- tribution. The other engine, a 114 horse power Harrisburg engine, will be direct connected to a 70 K. W., three phase, 2300 volt, revolving field alternator. In addition to these engines and generators, a 75 K. Y. rotary converter will be installed, making it possible to obtain both alternating and direct current from either unit. This will make it possible to adapt either machine to the various kinds of loads met within the college plant. In other words, each machine will become an emergency machine. In truth, this equipment will insure a most flexible power system. There will be six switchboard panels, three A. C. and three D. C. The alternating current group, made of black enameled slate, will consist of a generator, a feeder, and a rotary panel. The direct current three, will consist of a three wire generator, a three wire feeder, and a three wire direct current rotary con- verter panel. These will be made of blue Vermont marble. The switchboard equipment will be complete, up-to-date, and standard. Containing, as it does, most improved apparatus, and combining all of the principles of both direct and alternating current work, the plant, in addition to meeting the many and varied demands of a college plant, offers special oppor- tunities of instruction for engineering students ; and in its completed state will probably be. one of the most unique and up-to-date plants in the South.

C. ' 07. 146 Abumturra of a Bsnwv FARMER Jones hired Bristow to send his Carter and White Mule over to his Woods to help haul a load of Wood to Dalton, as his own Brown mule Bwc was 5 o oh ' somewhat of a jRimf, and therefore could not pull a heavy load. The cart was sent and loaded, and was making good time over the excellent Stone Rhodes which extended all the way except for the Boggs at the hanks of the river. When they reached this place, the cart went down to the axle. They beat the old mule until the whip was worn to a Stub; hut it had no effect, for his hide was as tough as W hit-leather . They sent for a Shingler, whose Schack was nearby, to bring his adz and Hugh a tree for a prize pole. They began to prize, but the tree was Britt le and broke, striking one of the men such a blow that it caused him to Keel over. After giving the wounded man a dose of Chloroform, he immediately Hughes another; but this, too, was limber and a Heavy Weight caused it to Bozi ' - eu the middle. Night had now caught them with nothing accomplished. It was a pretty Mooney night, but the Howl of a Wolf nearby made the situation unpleasant. About this time a Taylor named Kellar with legs like Pot Hooks and with a pair of red eyes P err in ' out of their deep-set orbits, came staggering up. In one hand he had a Lemon, and in the other a bottle of Booze which he bought from the di Spencer at Walhalla. lie sat down and began to Reid a Bill for some Regals, but the Old Man had to Hick up so often, he thought it best for all to take a drink to the health of the wounded man. lie then told them of a friend of his, named Fritz, living over at old Judge Clark ' s, who could pull more than both of the other mules, and said he always Lykes to help people in a Tite place ; so they all started out to find this biped of such enormous strength. On entering the yard in search of this helper, one of the men tumbled in a ' Pub by the well, while one of the others ran over a coop in which there were a Seoby Duck and a Guinea fowl. The cries of the fowls and the rattling of dishes by the Tabby cats, which in their fright had sought refuge on the dining table, suddenly woke one of the inmates of the house who fired into the crowd from a Garret window, and they all had to Skip. 14 149 ATHLETIC COUNCIL ISO Atljlrtir Aiisnriatum ©tfirrrs iExmtttuc (Snmmttirr Professors Riggs.

Everyone knew that with only three of last season ' s Varsity men back it was a very hard matter to put out a very strong, and at the same time a winning team ; yet, having the Tiger determination (as it may fittingly be called) the boys never gave up hope, but, instead went steadily to work with renewed determination to put out a strong aggregation of ball players. Early in the season, a mass meeting of the whole corps was called, at which an earnest request was made of every cadet who even had a notion that he could play ball to come out. This request was heartily responded to ; and in a very short time there was a large number of candidates ready to compete for the various vacancies. In order to get the men in good condition for out-door practice, the season ' s work was begun with a month ' s light practice in the gymnasium. Coach McMakin, whose ability had been previously proved to the Tigers, was greeted with delight by every member of the corps. In a little while Coach had the team selected ; and his men rounded out in good condition. Unfortunately for the Tigers the first g ame was away from home; this being played against our friendly rivals, the followers of Heisman. The Techites proved to be a little superior in the knowledge of the game at the opening of the season and consequently we suffered defeat at their hands, although the Tigers held their opponents down to a very close score. At the end of another week we were to fight two of the hardest battles of the season, a double header with the University of Georgia at Athens. The second, as the first game resulted in a defeat for the Tigers. Xext came the game with Furman on our campus. Until the seventh in- ning it seemed an easy victory for Clemson , but when the final inning came, the score book showed Furman ahead. This series of defeats was enough to dishearten any team, especially a new one, but instead it seemed to make the Tigers play only the harder, for it was the very next game that they put the Trinity aggregation out of commis- sion. The Tigers showed a great deal of improvement in this game, especially in the batting line. At the end of another week, we had suffered another defeat at the hands 166 of the strong team from Mercer. After this game came one with Wofford, in which the Tigers clearly outclassed their opponents at every stage of the game , and at the end the score stood nine to two in our favor. This, our second victory, seemed to counteract the previous defeats and put new life into the game as well as into the corps. The next test was that with Furman at Greenwood. The team that day knocked the invincible Lanford out of the box, and the game resulted in a score of 12 to 3 in favor of the Tigers. Out of seventeen games played, we won six, lost ten and tied one. While this is not up to the Tiger standard, nor nearly so good a record as Clcmson ' s previous ones, yet it is by no means without credit to a new team. 167 168 w H W 169 TRACK TEAM Prof. F. H. H.

With success, there comes an ambition for more victories ; and so it is in this branch of athletics at Clemson. Until the spring of 1905, no one had thought of sending out a team to rep- resent the college. Dr. F. H. H. Calhoun, a graduate of the University of Chicago, and a very fast track man, was the first one to conceive the idea. A challenge was accepted to meet the University of Georgia, at Athens . and E. R. Mclver was elected captain . F. C. YYyse, manager, and Dr. Calhoun was elected to coach the team. A large number of recruits came out in response to the call for men, and work was begun early in the season. However, all of our efforts were in vain, our team being defeated by a healthy score, Clemson winning only three first places and five second. This was discouraging to most of the student body, but it should be considered that it was our first attempt and against a team composed of experienced men. Dr. Calhoun, however, did not lose time in grieving over a past defeat, but when the spring of 1906 came, put the men out earlier, and put them through some preliminary gymnasium work, beginning out-door work as soon as the weather would permit. The team was reorganized with F. M. Furtick as captain. 172 Dr. Calhoun as coach, assisted by Profs. House and Nelson, and A. S. Heyward as manager. Manager Heyward succeeded in arranging a meet with the Univer- sity of Georgia on May the 12th, at Clemson. This event was looked forward to with much eagerness by the corps, as it was to be the first Track meet ever held on the campus. The men in training went to work with renewed vigor, de- termined to win or make the Georgians work hard for the honors of the day. Dr. Calhoun secured a training table for the members of the team, and every- thing was done to put them in prime condition. At last the eventful day arrived ; the sun rose out of a cloudless sky, and everything portended a most glorious day of sport. The first event was started promptly at 2:30 p. m., and everyone held his breath as the starter fired his pistol in the air and cried, Go ! For the running of the 100-yard dash, Warren, of Clemson. won first place in this event, and great was the joy of the Clemson rooters. This seemed to inspire a feeling of confidence in the whole team, and all of them settled down to work with steadier nerves. Out of a total of twelve events, Clemson won eight first places. Johnson came out first in the 200-yard dash, Furtick first in low hurdles, Spratt first in high jump, Furtick first in pole vault and also in putting the shot. In the mile race Clemson entered only two men, Alford and Harris, and won both first and second places, Alford winning first, Harris second. The final score was 59 to 49 in Clemson ' s favor, and this gave us the championship of Georgia, Alabama, and South Carolina ; for the Georgians had already defeated the leading teams of both of the former States. The winning of this meet has placed Track Athletics on a firm footing, and Dr. Calhoun deserves much praise for his efforts in this direction , for had it not been for his unquenchable enthusiasm, no doubt this part of Athletics would have been relegated to its old place in the background after our first defeat in At hens on April 17th, 1905. The team has been organized again for work this spring with the same officers, with the exception that A. B. Taylor has been elected business manager. Two meets have already been arranged for this spring, but both are to be held off of the campus. However, Manager Taylor hopes to secure one here later on. With most of last year ' s team back, and with one more year ' s experience we can not but hope for still better results in field sports. A. M.

One, two, three- The yell was given in a spirit which well bespoke the enthusiasm of the band of students gathered before the main building of one of the large educational insti- tutions of the South. Why should it not! Brown, captain of the victorious foot- ball team of the previous season — Brown, the straight-forward, most popular man of the college, was to leave them. And if by their cheers and a hearty send-off they could express something of their appreciation of him, so much the better. Brown could not answer. As he turned from his college mates, his eyes were suspiciously moist ; and many of them realized for the first time what it meant to him to leave the place which had been all but home for the past three years. From his boyhood days. Brown ' s ambition had been to reach the, to him, almost inaccessible position of civil engineer. To this end he had worked faith- fully during his college days. But now everything seemed blank. Within the past week his father had died, and Brown, the only member of the family which had been left to his father, found himself without means of longer attending school. The vast fortune, supposedly safe in the hands of his father, had disappeared with the proverbial instability of riches. Brown had found the death of his father, and the necessity of leaving college enough to bear : but that was r ot to be all. The previous evening, he had called on the one to whom he had plighted his faith, with the intention of bidding her farewell. Scarcely had she recognized him. Riches were her choice ; and no sooner had she learned of his misfortune than all affection for him vanished. Desperate as Brown had now become, he naturally felt that there was little in life worth living for. To leave his old friends and attachments ; to bury himself in some strange, little known place far from his former home, was his great desire. Where that place of retreat should be, he little cared. College left behind. Brown at length made his way to one of the large lumber camps of the Canadian woods. ( )wing to the scarcity of labor he obtained a posi- tion, in spite of the foreman ' s objection to employing one who so unmistakablv showed college-bred manners and ideals. But Brown soon took well with the men. His unfailing good humor, his willingness to help out wherever needed, and perhaps most of all the great power of body which he had gained on the football field, served to make him one of the best liked boys of the camp. Brown fo und his work far from monotonous ; in fact, the days spent with his well-trained four horse team, hauling logs to the river, passed by very rapidly, and almost before he realized the fact, winter was nearly spent. Brown, said the foreman one day, I want you to go down along the river to L , where the company ' s putting up the new mill, and take this note to Mr. Clarkson, and bring back what he tells you to. Hurry, now ! The fol- lowing day Brown, having delivered the message, started to inspect the saw mill. While wandering through one of the buildings, he came upon a piece of work which, so far, the constructors had been unable to accomplish. As a result of Brown ' s technical training, he was able to solve the problem for them, with the result that he was transferred from the lumber camp to the mill, at greatly improved wages and general conditions. Brown slowly worked his way upward, and began to attract some attention from his employers; but the great opportunity — the crucial test of his judgment and ability, was yet to come. By spring, the great saw mill was ready to begin work as soon as the ice should break up, in order that logs might be floated down the river from the woods to the north and west. Busy indeed was the scene around the mill, as well as in the camp. A village had already sprung up, and prosperity — the beneficial result of labor, was to be found on every hand. Earlv one forenoon, a week after the mill began work, logs ceased entirely to come down stream ; and a few hours later came news of a great dam of timber and ice which had formed on the shoals in the narrow gorge a few miles above. Great was the consternation throughout the mill community ; for the fact was plain to everyone, that should the dam not be broken in time, the immense amount of water, ice and logs which would accumu- late would, when the barrier finally gave way, rush down upon the valley below with irresistible force. Mr. Clarkson, the superintendent, thoroughly realizing the damage which the company woidd sustain, not to mention the loss of life and property liable to result further down the river, made every attempt to have the dam broken up. Dynamite was resorted to, but without success. The huge wall of ice and timber was not to be so easily broken up. Several lives had nearly been lost, and the lumbermen were readv to give up in despair, when Brown, almost exhausted from his long race up the river, ap- peared on the scene. His eye, trained by his work while at college, and with his genius for solving engineering problems, took in at glance the verv rock in the center of the stream, on which the first few logs were caught in a manner capa- ble of holding the entire obstruction in place. On either side of the rock the two wings of the dam stretched up stream and across to the opposite banks, forming a natural wedge. Could he reach this place? Water, and occasional logs and cakes of ice was pouring over the dam. In order to break the pack, one must, at great personal risk, place the charge of dynamite within the very walls of the dam. 189 Brown hesitated not a second. His pockets filled with cartridges and fuses, he care- fully worked his way toward the center of the stream. Would he ever gain this point? Many spectators fairly held their breath, and grizzled lumbermen, un- accustomed to giving way to emotion, were heard to send forth half-muttered prayers, or curses, as best suited their natures. May Hivin kape him, exclaimed Murphy O ' Brien, with chattering teeth, and if one uv thim infernal cartridges happens to explode, the gud Lord only knows where they ' ll find the pieces on judgment day. Sure, an ' the fishes i ' ll niver find ' em all before thin. Well aware of the danger from the cartridges, Brown pushed on. That massive but agile form had more than once, by great leaps and turns, evaded his opponents on the gridiron, and carried the ball safe through to the goal. Well indeed did his former training now serve him. At times, it seemed that Brown must certainly be crushed by flying logs and cakes of ice. Once, his foot slipped, and a giant timber nearly rolled over him ; but in a moment he was again press- ing on, this time, his left arm hanging limp by his side. Finally, the cartridge was placed and the fuse lighted. Then began the race for safety, before the mass should sweep him to destruction. With superhuman strength. Brown dashed from rock to rock ; but he was too late. With a dull roar, the cartridge exploded, sending u mass of logs and splinters far out over the stream. The great dam trembled, swerved and slid into the channel below. Brown gained the top of the seething mass, but was almost immediately drawn under. At length he re-appeared, and cheer upon cheer rang out from the shore as he was seen bravely making his way toward safety. The onlookers were again disappointed. Before a line or other aid could be sent to him. Brown sank, not to reappear. The following day. Perrault Demarx. a Canadian trapper, was to be seen drawing toward the boarding house of the mill community, a hastily improvised sled, apparently loaded with furs. Hello, Perrault, cried one of the loungers, as the trapper drew up, how much ' ll ye take fur yer load? How many pelts yer got? Pelts be hanged. furiously ejaculated Perrault, no sich good luck. I got a man. Him purty nigh dead, too. And, by gaar! heem one beeg load. Golly but dat man am a beeg one. Perrault, while setting his traps the night before, had found Brown lying in an unconscious condition, upon a rock project- ing from the bed of the stream. Brown was taken to Perrault ' s hut. and well cared for during the night. A week later. Brown, having recovered from his injuries, which were not se- rious, was summoned to the office of Mr. Clarkson. As a matter of fact, our friend was warmly complimented upon his bravery and skill in turning aside the danger which menaced the entire valley. Young man, said Mr. Clarkson, finally, will 190 yon tell me how you ever found the weak spot of that dam, and succeeded in so completely breaking it up. Oh, I just found it by looking carefully, was the modest answer. With some encouragement from his employer, Brown at length confided to him his hones and ambitions, and the experiences through which he had passed during the last few months. Mr. Clarkson was strangely attracted to Brown, owing both to Brown ' s story, and to his general appearance. After some further questioning a proposition was made to our young friend, which would give him the opportunity of again taking up his course of study. Two years later, Brown, on a certain commencement day in June, received from one of the largest institutions of this country the long looked for degree of C. E. J. W.

' I WAS sitting by my fire idly dreaming, when some intuition told me that a loving face was peering over my shoulder. Glancing up, I saw that my wife had entered, and was holding in her hand the latest issue of The Tiger, dated October 14, 1940. And as I eagerly glanced through its columns, my eye fell upon the name of the business manager, A. B. Taylor, Jr. Immediately a train of reminiscent thought was started, the trend of which was the accomplishments of my old class-mates. I recalled at once the greatest agricultural paper of the South, owned and edited by W. B. Anil, whose contributions to science had made him and his paper world famous. Closely associated with him was Sloan, the discoverer of Sloanogen, the magic chemical which surpassed radium in its wonderful powers. Brown is manager of the games at Coney Island, and among his heaviest plung :rs are Boggs and Schachte, who have become famous electricians in New York. Si Bond, after a long and successful career as a pitcher in the National League, has become a professional umpire. Bissel, Barksdale, Bristow, and Wylie are in the same town, and are the heads of the Inter-Racial League. Curtis married an Eng- lish title, and is now an up-to-date Beau Brummel. Dwight has set up a paper, and through his masterly controversial editorials, put the Columbia State out of business. Easterling became famous through the electrical appliance, which makes the voice of a duck as harmonious as that of a nightingale. It was with a shock that I remembered that Carter was still enjoying single bliss, and that he was running for Congress on the Republican ticket. His opponent, Peurifoy, the author of the child labor bill, was up for re-election on the Socialist ticket. Harris is running a hotel at Walhalla, S. C, and Folk is his head waiter. Stephenson has grown old in the management of the Crescent Comedy Company, but his leading comedian, A. L. Campbell, still makes the galleries roar with his witticisms. Hicklin holds the chair of dead languages at Clemson University. Moore revolutionized the dairy industry in South Carolina, and since the death of John Michels, is counted the highest authority on dairying. Ouattlebaum and Crawford have long since devoted themselves to missionary work in the South Sea Islands. Tears came to my eyes when I remembered that McLendon, with his brilliant mind, had risen no higher than a special policeman at Timmonsville. Like him, Furtick had rested on his college laurels, and had contented himself 223 with a lowly smithy at Bethel. Bailey entered politics, and is still trying to re-instate the State Dispensary. Y. W. W ' annamaker, became poet-laureate to the Principality of Cuba, and C. W. Wannamaker is field agent for the poet- laureate ' s books. Sears. Roebuck Co. have able representatives in Banks and Britt. Great light has been cast on Biblical history by Clark and Wolfe, the famous Archaeologists, who had not only discovered the Garden of Eden, but also the fossil remains of Adam and Eve. The last heard of Crum, was that he was preparing for his tenth attempt at a trip to Mars. He will be assisted in the attempt by Connor, the distinguished aerial engineer. Spencer attempted to walk around the world, but was imprisoned in Lisbon for vagrancy. The U. S. Government has sent Judge Wood, of Greers, to obtain his release from the Spanish authorities. Shingler and G. D. Sanders are dancing masters at the Isle of Palms. Rhodes, after graduating at Welsh Xeck. Cornell and Oxford, has at last settled down to a life of study. Dalton and Stevens are revenue offi- cers. Lemmon holds a government claim at the Xorth Pole and is collecting amber. On adjoining claims are Eason and Howie, who are catching polar bears and seals for Kaminer and Keel ' s circus, in which (). M. Reid has made an enviable reputation as a clown. Heyward is colonel of the 25th regiment. Giles and Hooks are Unitarian evangelists, and at present are trying to work out a plan by which skinning can be cut out of the Fitting School at Clemson University. Horton has become quite a hero, being sheriff of Anderson county and master of a large kennel of blood hounds. Jones disappeared in the whirl of Xew York society. Gov. ' Taylor is now owner of the Regal Shoe Co. and sells shoes to Clemson cadets at half price. Dnrant and Hughes are trainers of prize-fighters. Klugh is tonsorial artist at Clemson University. Latimer got the 6th contract to build the Panama Canal, and intends to do it with the aid of Sloanogen. McCutchan writes popular novels which are illustrated by Pottinger. Lykes is a cotton grower in South Africa and his staple is manufactured by Perrin. the great South African cotton mill magnate. Mack was recently hurt in an electrical experiment, and is being ably attended by the eminent specialist, Dr. H. G. Lewis. Richardson and Saunders are expert engineers and are running a tun- nel under the English Channel. Tolbert is a specialist in fungus diseases of grain. Schirmer and Stone achieved greatness as military engineers in the war between the United States and Japan. Sam Reid is in charge of the farms at Clemson University. Then, as if in answer to an unspoken wish, came my wife with a letter. It was from Furtick. calling a class reunion to be held in Atlanta on Thanksgiving Day. J. C. Clark axd L. S.

Realizing the manly stand that the privates of the present Senior Class have taken in co-operating with me for the benefit of the whole college, and further realizing that these men are old enough to take care of themselves and to set an example for the nnder-classmen, I hereby take great pleasure in allowing this august body of young men the following privileges : 1st. They shall have all night lights and permission to use same until tapps. 2nd. They shall be allowed to distribute themselves equally among the companies of the corps, and shall have the honor of being under the direct supervision of a non-commissioned officer. 3rd. They shall be allowed to go to revelle and to breakfast formations every morning, answering to their names at least twice during each roll-call. 4th. They shall be allowed to march in a military manner — column of twos with correct facing distance and cadence — to and from classes. 5th. They shall be allowed to stay in their rooms during study hours, and they shall be allowed at least two inspections by their respective captains during said study hours, to enable said captains to ascertain whether said privates are taking advantage of these privileges. 6th. They shall be allowed to wear at all times — even when in their rooms — the uniform of the corps, with blouses buttoned and hooked and directly connected to the ears by means of a standing collar. 7th. They shall be allowed to take three hours extra in theoretical military until they have thoroughly mastered the subject of lighting stretchers and wounded men, after which they shall be allowed to put said subject into practical use for three hours each week. Par. II. Any privates not taking advantage of above privileges will be reported to the commander by above mentioned captains, and they shall be placed in close arrest and allowed to remain there until the Discipline Committee can convene and decide upon a suitable punishment for men who cannot appreciate a privilege.
