Mr enlisted from Orangebur-g, where he obtained his early education. His ambition, al first, was to make better grades than any other boy in his class; but he had not been here quite two years before he could be found in his room preparing an oyster stew during study hours. Me is too modest to speak of his honors, but his career at Clemson has caused all who know him to praise him. Three years after graduation, he can lie found at Orangeburg, wiring the sub- way there. Electrical. Corporal, Sergeant, First Lieutenant. Electrical Science Club; Orangeburg County Club. Woodward Allen SPARTANBURG, S. ' . His profile was siiikiii ' . ' , resistless and grand; His manners were gentle, complying and bland. Woodward is one of the natural leaders of his class, having taken an active part in the various phases of college life. However, hi ' believes in sleep, and declares that chapel and reveille were instituted solely to interfere with his morning nap. Occasionally, he may lie found in his loom studying very hard about well, anything except his lessons. He attributes his non-studiousness to Alex, who is taking the Civil-(ization) course. Woodward ' s future is hard to Ion- tell; but. in all probability, he will be a botanist. Chemistry. Corporal, Drum Major, Captain-Quarter- master.

As a friend, one could not desire a Wetter; as a companion, one could do far worse. Old Vandy rules his battalion with an iron hand. yet his popularity does not suffer. As a dramatic actor, he can not lie equalled by local talent. His successful manage- ment of the finances of the Chronicle shows him to he a shrewd. business man. Vandy is so enamored at present, that he can think only of her. For him the finger of Destiny points toward Fame. Civil Engineering. Corporal, First Sergeant, Major.

William Augustus Barnette ROCK HILL Nature listening stood and wondered at the work herself had made. This is another York county hoy. an d he too has lieddy for a name. Reddy ' s early education was obtained at the Rock Hill High School. He spent two years at the Catawba Military Academy, where he received training for the military life at Clemson. Entering Clemson in liKHi, he has since been a loyal member of the class of 1910. By a personality which is attractive and good natured, Barnette has won his way with ease into the companionship and confidence of all who have enjoyed his acquaintance. Besides being a diligent student, he has been alive to other college activities, being a member of the Y. M. C. A., the Literary Society, and the track team. After graduating at Clemson, Barnette will take a university course, and then settle down as a veterinarian. Agriculture and Veterinary Science. Corporal, First Sergeant. Captain.

( . When I sai ' 1 thai I ' l die a bachelor, I never dreamed [ ' d live to be married. Huron or Beck does as he pleases and takes the - confinements, lie is far too amiable to allow life to become monotonous, for his favorite pastime is yelling in the mess hall, and he devoted all meal times in Junior to this avocation. While in the section, he enjoys himself by ruffling Buck ' s temper; and declaring his hatred of married life. Although not a studious lad, he has been a class leader. For Beck, there is safety in predicting a bright and suc- cessful future as a distinguished chemist, only to be marred by matrimony. Agriculture and Chemistry.

As to the manner born. Daniel is not closely related to the great pioneer, but seems to come of royal lineage. His graceful maimer, his courtly bow, and his valiant heart win friends among both ladies and gentlemen. Daniel enjoys his college life. especially becoming interested in the military aspirations of all rats. A hard student, an excellent companion, and a good classmate, Daniel has won the respect, if not friendship, of the whole class, and admiration of the college. May his future continue with the high ideals he now holds. Civil Engineering. Corporal, First Sergeant, Sergeant- Major, Lieutenant and Adjutant.

Don ' t think him always idle, though, for in some things, he is a heavy man — first comes football. Any ti you can ' t find him on the field, come down into barracks, and you will find him working out some new play. And the ladies! Well, you are right there; that is his long suit He carries trumps in that game, and can play from his sleeve all day long.

Brock is of a very retiring disposition, hut still is fairly well known Ilis loyalty to the Literary Society and his professed ambition to become a veterinarian, are two of his strongest features.

If I owned the whole world, then I ' d plant it in tobacco. Surge, or Buck, after finishing the Fairfax school, came to Clemson with the sole intention of studying mineral- ogy. No military for him! As a result of his research work (lining his Junior year. Buck discovered a combustible, soft flesh-colored substance entirely unknown to science. After consulting all chemists and mineralogists, it was decided to classify and name this mineral Bucknerite. Buck has been a diligent student, a conscientious young man, and a pleasant classmate.

Since then, he has lived at Whitmire, in the northeast corner of Newberry county.

He is a student of the first class, and in the true sense of the word. He never aspired for military glory, but has ever declared undying love to his musket. Although from Kock Hill, he seldom speaks of Winthrop — it is not known what he writes. As a chemist, John will gain the respect of the world. Chemistry.

Little Francis first disco vered America at the historic town of Newberry. His early education was received in the Newberry public schools and at Newberry College, from which place he graduated in ' 05 with the degree of B. A. Hoping to attract attention in the electrical world, he entered the Junior class at Clemson, September, ' 08. Since coming to Clemson, he has won quite a reputation as a student. His chief faults are buying experience and smashing heart--. Electrical. Acting Lieutenant.

For .some who have his secret nature guessed, Have found him not too much a priest. ' ' Clink is a specimen of Fairfield; therefore history and political economy come easy to him. Much to his chagrin, his military aspirations were blighted in Junior. It was found that the atmosphere of Senior privatism was more congenial to his delicate constitution. I lis qualities as a debater arc unlimited, he having met and defeated the re- nowned and venerable Bob Nickles. His two chief faults were: first, coming to section formation eating the last bite; second, after studying a Daddy lesson for three hours, invariably asking every member of the section where the lesson began. Diligence will make his success in life certain. Agriculture and Chemistry. Sergeant.

His les- sons do not bore him very greatly, and he. too. has a jolly time at school. Wherever a little nerve is needed, Bill is always sent for. Before the footlights, or on the side lines, he always stars. He had his copy of the Denmark Times discontinued on account of the poor editorials; at least that ' s what we are told. But seriously, Bill has had a rather enviable college career, and his merry voice will be missed when we have sepa- rated. His future is in his own hands, to lie a- great as he desires.

Freddie came to Clemson. and again joined in the pursuit of knowledge. Dining his Freshman year, he failed to cultivate the acquaintance of the head of the mechanical department, consequently electricity has been a very complex study for him.

Beef sprang up at North, where he claims to have re- ceived an early education: however, he was not satisfied with his foundation, when he landed at Clemson, and proceed- ed to take a course in the pre]) class. He had so many talents, it was a hard matter to decide whether he wanted to he a great athlete, orator, or a leader in class-work.

However, he is an unceasing worker, carries his point at any cost, and does his duty as he sees it. His chief fault is speaking the truth at the wrong moment. He often declares if there ever was a Jonah. he ' s the man. His character and high sense of honor has enabled him to go through school respected, if not admired by all.

Many were the privates who ceased to smile and raise their hands in ranks, at reveille or while marching to breakfast.

Complacency and truth, and manly sweetness dwell ever on his tongue and smooth his thoughts. Billy was horn in Florida, but moved to the Palmetto State in early youth.

He is a great society man (literary, of course,) and is exceedingly proud of his military achievements. His redeeming features are his high sense of honor, his good nature, and his ability to get work out of everybody — except himself.

H( )()K I ( ; a I Senior lass from the viewpoint of a Freshman, it seemed to be shrouded in some mystic halo, through which we feared we h uil(] never be able to penetrate. But, as we approached the un- known border, the mists have gradually cleared away, leaving only the bare fact- and responsibilities standing out in clear relief. Then the questions arise, Have these responsibilities been mel a- they should have been? Has everyone dune his ci best? To answer these questions, it is necessary for ii- to turn hack four years, and follow our steady inarch onward over the rough and rugged way. ()n beginning the ascent, two hundred and two green but determined Freshmen stood at the bottom of the mountain, gazing intently upon the crags and jagged peaks thai would be theirs to surmount. Bowever, our reverie was interrupted by the paddle of a Sophomore, who cried, Wiry stand ye here idle? Thus the ascent began. At the very first, we were taught hew insignificant we were. What a contrasl to our former opinions! The wild, unruly Rat was put in the same category with the shy and timid Mouse — that of a lowly Freshman. Notwithstanding all this, we took an active pari in the various activities id ' the college. Finally Commencement came, followed by a happy vacation. Sophomore followed in rapid succession. When the mil was called, one hundred and fifty-eighl of our foimer Dumber answered here. The others had found the jagged peaks too steep to ascend, consequently they fell hack a year or gave up entirely. To return as a Sophomore, was the height of eveiy- one ' s ambition, hut. in the preceding year, we had accumulated enough knowl- edge to know that a Sophomore ' s wisdom is small of statute: therefore we 51 were freed from passing through thai period of rinding ourselves out. Soon, our men began to show their athletic ability; we had several men on the football field, on the baseball nine, and on the (rack team. This year marked the beginning of the career of several men who were to break all of Clemson ' s former records in the athletic line. Alas! the fateful day came — the calamity of the April escapade. I I ere, as with other (lasses, our number was divided; some remained loyal to the college; others joined in with the Pendleton Guards. When the smoke cleared away, il was found thai eighty-five members of our class weie missing. Times looked gloomy indeed, but the few that remained did good work, and kept the class together. Il was at this time that the Honor System was adopted by all classes. The Honor System had existed in the Junior and Senior ( ' lasses for some time, but had never been adopted by the Sophomore ( ' lass. This was the first clas to take lip the matter, and much of the success was due to the efforts of the class. Now came the second rest with its numerous pleasures. The gloomy prospects had brightened considerably at the beginning of our Junior year. All the Pendleton Guards, who - desired, were allowed tci return to college. Many came with the determination In make their classes, and d ' d so. Also several g I men joined us from the preceding Junior Class. Alter a careful count, an enrollment of eighty-six men was found. Not so bad after all. The Juniors then began to realize that soon they would stand at the head : theie would be none to look up to. During this year, many of the men did line work on the athletic Held. The championship in football was easily taken, as every other class was defeated by a large seme. The class put out one of the best teams that has been here for several years. So much the moie do we feel proud of it, when we remember that it wa- managed and coached entirely by men from the class. Then followed the struggle on field ' s Day. The other classes put up a good struggle, hut were entirely outclassed by the fleet-footed Juniors. When the score was counted, it was found that the Juniors were ahead. The cup was ours; another star had been added to our ciown. Thus time rolled by, and again we found ourselves at another period of rest. The goal has been icached! So far tin victor] lias been ours. Bui we did not pass through that mysterious transformation which was anticipated in our earlier college course. bu1 only met face to face the duties and responsi- bilities. However, to share these obligations, we could count upon seventy-six men. As the year seventy-si x of the eighteenth century and the year seventy- six of the nineteenth century were two noted years in American history, we hope the present seventy-six men will he actuated by the same spirit of courage 52 and energy — ever following the paths of right. Here we found onr long-looked for Senior privileges to be only fantastic dreams. Our course has been run under three commandants, and each succeeding one removed some of our privileges, until the name is all that is left to us. What changes Time hath wrought in his ceaseless course! About the middle of our first year at college, each one thought that the happiest time of his life would be when he had been handed his diploma at graduation day. Is this true! ' Not by any means. Friendships that have been formed during the four years of close relationship hind us closer together than ties of steel. Mere separation cannot sever these relations. As we have shared the fortunes and misfortunes of each other through our college career, so -hall we he bound with even -till stronger ties of sympathy in the future. Ha in - traced the gradual transition thus far. we must leave the future for the prophet. But, lor the Class of 1910, we hope that the line- may fall in pleasant place-: and may lie who wateheth over all. he a light to brighten up life ' s weary pathway. ( ' . F. IN MAN.

T. 56 57 2|t£torp of Junior Clastf HOOKING back over the past, we must realize that we are the outcome of thai memorahle horde of two hundred and fifty Freshmen who arrived al Clemson September 11, 1907. We were an energetic bunch of youths from all parts of the grand old Commonwealth of Smith Carolina, gathered together in the shade of the historic ld homestead of John ( ' . Calhoun to please the dictates of ambition, to obtain inspiration that will guide ns through life, and to seek knowledge along scientific lines. Though we were many, we proved our deficiency — like the ancient Greeks and Iniiians — in organization by bowing our heads in servitude to the domineering and tyrannical upper classmen: thus we bore the burdens of Freshmen, and served our superiors till we came to that bright date on the calendar which appeared to us as a glittering diamond — dune. As well as filling ourselves with the joys id ' the pleasures id ' vacation, we were jubilant over the fact that the three short months id ' summer would mark our transit from the dormant state of rathood to that of lordly Sophomores. The pleasures, troubles, and other ordeals of summer absorbed a large number of our classmen. The eighth of September, 1908, marked the period at which one hundred and fort v-one wisest of all wise Sophomores returned to college to assume the duties and responsibilities of caring for the needy and homesick rats who joined us in our grand old borne. Aside from our duties as guardians of those who proved to he so unfamiliar with their surroundings, we made greal and deep researches into sciences, as expounded by such as Galileo, Newton. Archimedes, Gay Lussac, Darwin and others, which have been given to the world mainly to serve as blocks and stones in the pathway of the all-wise Sophomores. A large portion of our summer vacation was taken up in demonstrating the scientific principles acquired during the previous nine months. The basis of the demonstrations consisted in drawing the bell cords over mike. Finding that we did not possess the acceleration of mind that we had duped ourselves into believing that we had attained while Sophomores, one 58 hundred and five of us returned on September s, 1909, to take up our work as Juniors. Since September, several have fallen by the wayside; bul more than four score are still striving onward and upward to attain the goal which we set while Freshmen. Allowing due limit to the ravages of examinations and plagues of time, we can safely count on having mure than the allotted Dumber — three score and ten — to assume the garb of dignity becoming of Seniors when we again gather together in the autumn of L910. Rach ear of our stay in college lias been marked by the great interest taken and the work done by the Class of ' 11 mi the athletic held. We have contributed largely in men to both ' varsity and scrub football, baseball and track during the three years that we have been at Clemson. (Mm- men have responded with equal activity and enthusiasm to class athletics. Though we have ne er won any championships, we have don |ually as well as any other class in giving backbone to the college athletics. Kind leaders, just hear in mind that we will vet attain something, for, I [e li Bghl - ;i ml runs away Shall live to fighj another day : I ' .nt In ' who i- in kit i le slain Shall never rise to fight again. Now. as we are on the verge of launching out upon another, the last, year of our college life, let each and every one of us | ull together for the upbuilding, not of self, but of the ( ' lass of 191] ; and when the curtain of revelation is drawn hack, may we all find our names inscribed around the highest pinnacle of Fame ' s lair temple.

Higtorp of tfje Class of 1912 the beginning of our Freshman year, there were two hundred and fifty-six boys who were traveling upon an unknown mad. where not our physical abilities were In he tested, hut where our mental activities were to he cultivated, and our minds broadened and deepened. In over which many of the students who traveled before us had suc- cessfully passed, there were results of had record. As a result of this fore- warning, the majority of our class became aware of this fact, and tried to shun all of these obstacles: while on the other hand, there were some who seemingly forgot about the long branches of Physics, Math., Trig., and Chemistry that had to he crossed on the road that leads through Soph, and. consequently, were left in deep water in the midst of one of these branches. At the beginning id ' the second year, there were one hundred and sixty-one boys, some of whom wcw originally of Class •• 11. under the influence and guidance of Mr. II. T. Prosser, our class president, whose colors had not fallen while on the long and narrow path that leads to examination. It has often been said that whenever a Freshman lays down his work in dune to resume it in September as a Sophomore, he then thinks that he is wiser than any member id ' the other cla ses : hut we can truly say. and are sure there are other men in the Class IV that will hear us up in our statement, that such is not the case with us. We, as Sophomores, desire to hold our places as such for the time being, and no more. The cleft between where we started in Fresh., and the goal beyond that we long to reach is still widening; and in reality, the more we learn, the Less we seem to know, due to the recog- nition of our ever increasing circles of thought and knowledge, which, the farther we travel, seem to grow larger and more difficult to encompass. We do not hesitate in saying that the present Sophomore (lass bids fair to be one among the most notable in the history of the college. We all have a great interest in the welfare of the college, and for this reason we are doing everything in our power to achieve tins welfare, and to uplift Clemson College even to a higher standing than it already has. 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. Taking our (lass from an athletic standpoint, we arc playing an important part, being represented on the Varsity football squad by two of our most prominent men. Messrs. J. A. Hates and .1. 1- ' . Ezell, who are making cham- pionship names for Clemson, both at home and abroad. ' ot only is our class well represented on the football field, bu1 our record is also fairly good on the track team. We are looking forward fur Soph to put oul the leading pitcher on the baseball squad this season, and by a little encouragement and good coaching, we believe Mr. Eenry Rivers will surely fill our expectations. But, after all. here ' s one who has tried faithfully to win a place on class football team, and having failed there, has decided to run a race with ••Sam Ezell, tn see which can eat the most, when, lo! a certain voice was heard to say. ' The prize is won by Mr. Jeffords, who distinguishes himself as ' still a good-en. ' As to the besl essayist, Mr. Pelham Knight, a greal writer and Lover of literature (?), deserves no little mention, and in our search for a man who could write the besl and mosl up-to-date ii te of thank- fur a box of candy from his besl girl, we found .Mr. Johnnie Wakefield to he far superior to anyone else in the entire class ( ?). The tact that we stand among the first in literary societies has been proven l Mr. II. W. Cromer, who ha- twice been appointed a speaker in the Annual Celebration ' if the Palmetto Literary Society, and who, in his Freshman year, won the declaimer ' s medal. We are taking a ureal interesl in the developmenl of that phase in college, and hope to he even more successful in the future than we have been in the past. In our Freshman year, we were divided into Agricultural and Mechanical sections only; hut when we took the high fly fur Soph there were numerous divisions made; viz.. the Agricultural, Textile. Metallurgical, Civil, Electrical and Mechanical sections. Those who were fund of the study of plants and animal-, chose the agricultural course; while those who were ambitious to become engineers, chose one of the other courses. Though we are divided in these sections, apart from each other in our da-- room and laboratories, nevertheless we are striving onward together lor places of larger promise and greater usefulness. At a meeting held at the beginning of the session, the following officers were elected: Mr. II. I . Prosser, president ; Mr. E. W. Cromer, vice-president ; Mr. .1. F. Ezell, secretary ami treasurer; Mr. F. L. Ross, poet: Mr. ;. W. Byars, historian ; ami Mr. .1. M. Workman, reporter to the Tiger. A- presi- dent of the daneing school. Mr. T. ( ' . Redfern was chosen, with Mr. B. F. Owens, v ice pie-nletit ami Mr. A. P. Fant, secretary and treasurer. Up to the present, our college work has been veiv satisfactory. A smaller percentage of the boys failed on the first term examinations than in any of the preceding Sophomore classes, which is a record we are proud of: ami we only trust that it will he maintained until the roll call of 1912. Yet. the more we -ee of the Soph, moie wolf:, the n ■ we icalize that the path before us is far from easy; hut we temember, too. that success is the reward of the greatesl service, and. remembering this, we are to gel down to study ami prepare for white cards to Junior. Fellows, stand up for your class in every way, ami let us make the Class of 1912 one to he proud of; ami permit me to say, in conclusion, that never were any higher and more gratifying prospects spread before us; and we trusi that tin- vi-ta shall not he clouded, even with a transient shade.

HE Freshman Class of 1913 consists of eighty-one Agricultural and t j one hundred and twelve Mechanicals. Although this is not the r largest class thai has entered the college, it is of a good size, and shows prospects of being one of the best. The officers, which were chosen by the class, are: J. T. Cochran, of Clemson, president; • ' . EL Kangeter, of Charles- ton, vice-president : and M.. Coles, of Columbia, secretary and treasurer. Under the leadership of these strong men. the class oughl to make good. Our class showed up well on the football field. We had two men on ' Varsity and four on the Scrubs. We also were not lacking in track or baseball. Our clas turned out the first Rat team in the history of the college. The class team, although it was the lightest team out. made up in speed and spirit for what it lacked in weight. We played three games. The first was with the Preps., which we won easily, with a score of 1 ) to . The second, with the Juniors, was a much harder game and, although the score was to . our goal wa s never in danger, while the hall was most of the time in their territory. The last and the hardest game, was with the Sophs. who had al-o tied with the Juniors. This game was called in the middle id ' the second half because of an injury received by one of our men. and the game ended without either side scoring. Our college work has been very good so far, and we will make every effort to continue it so. Although L913 is a long way off, we all have hopes of receiving diplomas when Commencement day of that year comes. There is no doubt id ' there being a number of great men among us, who, some day will astonish the world with their orations, writings and engineering feats. If we show the same spirit in helping our class. State, and country, as we do in athletics, there will he no doubt of the results. 13. 6? Miss Innocence ' Sponsor GTfje $rep. GWbe Berly, J. A.

We can- qoI say thai our trip to Clemson was one of ease and unlooked For pleasures. Far differenl from that. Many were the talcs we had heard of the terrible persecution of tats among the halls of learning that we were rapidly approaching. As we Qeared the college, these talcs assumed vivid proportions, and we were certain thai we were soon to encounter experiences thai only the stout-hearted and Fearless could survive. Nevertheless, we allowed ourselves to be carried on and on, until finally someone came through the cats an- nouncing our arrival at Calhoun. Some of the old boys, who had comic pari of the way with us on the train, favored us by allowing us to cany their baggage over tn the barracks. Thus burdened, we came approaching the buildings which loomed up to the proportions of huge prisons. After our arrival at the barracks, we were told by our Friends, who had escorted us From the station, that when we carried their trunks up, we could go. We wete delighted at the thought that this was to be all we should be required to do. The day was intensely hot, but we did as we had been told. After we had finished our task and had stalled to walk away, we were en- countered by some more of the old boys, who told us that we could also carrv G9 up their luggage. This distasteful work lasted for about three days, with more merriment at night, such as turning, rat meetings, old-time singings, cake- walks, etc., which afforded us as much anxiety and uneasiness as it afforded the old hoys amusement. Of course, under such conditions, it was natural for us to wish for the old homestead. Everything at Clemson seemed so unreal and unnatural. We spent our time exploring the spacious buildings and grounds, and avoiding the old boys at day and living in constant tenor of them at night. We also missed the old reliable home fare, and the technical terms of the mess hall kept us in a guessing mood for several days. Soon the mysteries of examinations, schedules, etc., were all unraveled, and we got down steadily to work. Everything was getting quieter, and we could now almost go at will in and out of the barracks. And now the real pleasure of college life was dawning upon us, if we may call it pleasure in our rat year, watching football scrimmages and other outdoor sports, and also indoor sports as crap-shooting, raffling, set-back, etc. And that fair trip. Did we have our time? dust ask us. Those Columbia people all thought we were Sophs and Juniors, and some of those girls said we were as genteel as Seniors. 1 don ' t know what they meant by that, and was afraid to ask a Senior. Al ' tei ' the fair, lime fairly Hew by, and soon Christmas exams, were on us. Well, most of us pulled through all right. Hut I really think we did not do these exams, justice, as we weie so Idled with delight at the thought of going home so soon. And the trip home. We weie the heroes of our homes and the pride of our towns. Everybody said our uniforms made us look like real soldiers. After ( hi istmas, class foot ha II came on. We organized a team, and entered the contest for the trophy cup. This was our liist step in taking a part in the college activities. Willi .1. I . Verner as captain and A. II. Lachiootte as manager, we soon went to work in earnest. We played creditable hall, con- sidering the fact that almost everyone of us was inexperienced. We played the Fieshmen first, hut they heat us by the score of In to 0. We played the Sophs next, who also won by the same seme. In the last pait of the Soph game, Verner met with the serious misfortune of getting his collar-hone broken. The team was disbanded after this game, as it was hardly worth while to continue playing. We are proud of our team, though, and of our class also. We have aboul eighty-five enrolled, and everyone expects to he a Freshman next Fall. Whether we he Freshmen or not. it is a known fact that we will not he rats. 70 ; i UJJ Jtm OUR WINTER HOMES 73 ; i 75 Main Building Mechanical Hall i ' 6 Chemical Laboratory Textile Building Agricultural Hall Green House 78 Post Office Electrical Laboratory 79 Poarb of 3Tru£tee£ LIFE MEMBERS Hon.

Assistant Professor of Designing and Weaving DRAYTON EDWIN EARLE, B. S. Assistant Professor of Carding and Spinning Cotton is used so extensively throughout the world, that it influences more people than any other one raw material. About seventy per cent, of the world ' s supply is raised in our Southern States. The manufacture of 102 cotton in the South has not reached that proportion to which it may reason- ably aspire. There are many problems in the finer details of manipulation and in economic questions which our Southern mills have not yet faced. A textile school lays special emphasis on all these points which cannot be readily gotten in the mills. The opportunities the textile world offers are almost unlimited. The business of cotton manufacture is more than simply making yarns and cloth, so a textile school has to undertake a broader course of instruction, and to cover a wider field of products. The textile department was established here in 1898. The building is a two-story brick structure, designed along the plan of a modern cotton mill. The purpose of this department is to teach the art of cotton manufacture to the young men of South Carolina, who wish to make the mill industry their business, and to give practice in applying the different methods and principles used. The equipment is composed of men am! improved machinery and includes all that i necessary for the manufacture of numerous textile fabrics from the raw stock to the finished material. Each machine is analyzed by an instructor, who explains its mechanism, it- necessity, ami it- peculiar function in the process. The different subjects are: carding, spinning, weaving, cloth analysis, cam drawing, designing, jacquard designing, organic chemistry, dyeing, ami mill construction. Besides getting a thorough knowl- edge of the textile industry, the student ha- a good general education leading to the decree of H. S. 103 Special textiles; George Holland Anderson Chester. S. C.

Leave the trunk in the vacant We hope tn gel a more scientific answer in the near future. 11? Problem 2. — Given a room 7 ft. by 10 ft. with two beds 3 ft. by 6 ft. two desks 4 ft. by 3 ft. ; one washstand 2 ft. by 3 ft. ; two trunks 2 ft. by 3 ft. ; four chairs and one table. Required the number of layers of furniture and the floor space left for four large feet. Trigonometry: Plane and Spherical The knowledge of this important branch of mathematics will help us solve many interesting problems. By its use we can calculate the distance between a boy and his sweetheart, but sometimes this distance is so small that we have to get the aid of the calculus. From this study, we get some of the principles of surveying. The subject of surveying offers some undue advantages, such as a burning hot sun. a blinding light, and the inability to see what you should. The work and result- in this course are always original ; no class ever obtains the results of its predecessors. Analytical Geometry or Conic Sections Illustrations and practical applications of the work are offered through- out the college. Problems offered by this course: 1. — Given a bed 5 ft. 6 in. long and a cadet 6 ft, tall. Write the equation and plot the curve of the boy. 2. — Write and draw the curve made by a rat when he irets over a char, catching a bottom round. 3. — Find the focus of the points of contact of the boys when there is a scrap going on behind barracks. Calculus: Differential i [ntegral The great advantages of this course lie in the ability gained in dealing with infinitely small quantities; such as, the amount of sugar in the coffee. the space in chapel, the amount of cream in the butter, the knowl edge of some of the faculty, and the time to do what you please. We have recently learned that it can be allied to physiology, for by its means a student lias learned that his brain is infinitely small, and is now studying how it shall take an increment. Only one problem will be offered which is illustrative of others. Com- pute the amount of space allowed to each boy in a room when there is a box received from home. By a silly little gism we might prove that, while we are studying mathe- matics we are also studying logic Logic is a thing that begins with log. Logarithm is a thing that begins with log. Therefore logic is a logarithm. Therefore logic is mathematics. 113 11 1 S ome Snteresttng Eeltc The Calhoun Mansion stands majestically upon one of the numerous hills of the campus; to most of us there seems a spirit of awe and admiration surrounding it. Even many of the students who graduate never enter this historic home of that illustrious statesman. ( n the opposite page of this book, are some pictures of the nr ,-t interesting relics. The piano, which seems so unusual to us, was one of the firsl broughi to America. It is of English make, ha- only our pedal, and is very small compared with the instruments of to-day. The legs are carved and veiy slender: there is a great deal of brass trimming and a great amount of inlaying. This belonged to Mrs. Calhoun when she was Floride Calhoun, though she often played for her husband, who i- said to have been very fond of music. On both sides are very small drawers, probably for music. Another article which fills us with a reveience for the past, is a chair which once belonged to George Washington. Of plain outline-, composed entirely of wood and seemingly made for service, one is surprised to find ii so comfortable. The dining-room table is a piece of furniture that one rarely ever fees. It is the table used for State occasion-. Th mahogany is almosl a- pol - to-day as it was years ago, when distinguished mi . n discussed great affairs around this festal hoard. 1 1 width and length are remarkable. The picture of the ship is of what i- -aid to he the model of the Constitu- tion. From all that can lie found, there is no argumenl to refute that claim. it shows remarkable patience of workmanship, and is in every way quite remarkable. The office of John C. Calhoun inn.-t have been the place where main id ' the greatesl thoughts of that state-man originated. The er walls seem to hear testimony to the greai man who worked there. There is a small desk that for several decades has been unlocked hut by one man. There is a combination lock, and no one knows exactly how it is opened. One man. a mechanical engineer, has had patience to open it. The small door opens down instead of to one side. The maps mi the wall hear date- of the early pari of 1800, and are very unlike ours of to-day. There are many relics of Mr. Clemson ' s, hut space will not permit of description. It is certainly worth anyone ' s time to isit the home of South Carolina ' s greatest statesman. 115 Campus Views 116 Bl .1 llll mi • mi nil ' ' ii ' ,.

Officer of the Bay. 117 ®f)e Capture of Columbia lli- i. lii- i. hi-yi! Tiger, Tiger, Tiger! No, the incontrovertible evidence of the evolution of an American language which heads this document was not produced by any fanatical order of side-line enthusiasts. Il was delivered to the sleepy ears of the misty- crowned liini nine-, far from the scene of gridiron battles — almost a mile, in fact; for il is about a mile from Bowman Field to the little smoky, huff-colored depot at Calhoun. Along the winding road that connects the one with the other, a grey-clad figure trudged, burdened with a sword that banged its wearer ' s shanks: with a huge white blanket-roll that chafed the galled shoulder that bore it: ami with a large square of cloth stretched on a frame ami adorned with the snarling visage of a tawny monarch of the Bengal jungle. As the standard-bearer emerged into the clearing around the station, the royal salute, inscribed at the top of this page, floated out upon the circumambient super-saturated atmosphere. It is not the usual thing or the proper thing to find at Calhoun any Clemson cadets, especially at half-pas! six in the morning; it is still more unusual and improper to find a number sufficient to disturb the peace and quid of that confirmed peaceful and quiet town: and to find said cadets actually engaged in disturbing said peace and quiel is a circumstance unusual and improper in the exti cine. However, the morning of Tuesday, November the second, nineteen hun- dred and nine, was a very unusual, if not improper, occasion. For seven week- the corps of cadets had keen waiting for just that morning. For seven weeks the prospects for a trip to the Fair had risen and fallen like the stock quotations of an aeroplane manufacturing plant. Little else was discussed. If dinner was disappointing, Shorty was saving up for the Fair; 148 if drill was prolonged unnecessarily, the captain was training us for the Fair: when the price of cotton soared, it was the signal for as to send frantic requests for the price of a ticket to Columbia. The papers wen ' searched in vain for a headline telling that Winthrop would attend the Fair. The faculty, the commandant, the president and the trustee- consumed valuable time in conference before announcing a decision, while the decision in favor of the project had been arrived at by the corps almost without discussion. What little discussion there was took place after the announcement of the decision, and was principally on the question of ways and means. Ami so it happened that, on this unusual morning a small army of decorators was actually engaged in tacking long streamers of old gold and purple to the cars of a long train drawn upon the siding at Calhoun. The placing in position id ' the Tiger-head banner, completed the work of the decorators. Soon, from the depths of the fog, the Long, snaky column of much- encumbered, grey-clad soldier boys crawled out into the early sunshine. Into the waiting cars, tumbled officers, men. sabers, Kxag-Jorgensens, blanket- rolls, suit cases, cook oullits. and joyous expectation-. After the last tanh professor had scrambled aboard, the engineer began playing with the throttle. The engine balked and snorted indignantly at the unwonted load, hut finally yielded to persuasion, ami buckled resignedly to tin ' task, gathering confidence from the knowledge that on the pilot crouched the invincible Clemson Tiger. With the incidents of the run from Calhoun to Columbia, we need nol concern ourselves. Suffice it to say that our train pulled into the Fair Grounds siding late enough to dispel any fears that we might have had of a dress parade. The first object that attracted our attention, as the air-brakes ground the wheels, was the familiar arrangement of gold bars on the sleeve of the dark blue dress coat of our quartermaster-sergeant, who stood on the ground and greeted us with a. grin that meant that he and Sarge had our tents ready. Five hundred dusty, tired, hungry boys detrained, poked their heads through their white blanket-rolls, shouldered arms and set out toward the brown peaks of our canvas city. ' The gaping crowd fell hack obligingly for the first company, and nearly hacked into the second. Wider and wider opened their eves, as company after company crossed the grounds. In a very short time, tents had been assigned, and the delightful pleasure of stuffing a mattress cover with dusty, mouldy, chaffy, haled oats straw was then indulged in. Southern l. ' ailwax dust was then introduced to Columbia standpipe 149 l.Ml water, with the result thai the next up-town car was boarded by an advance guard of refreshed and fairly presentable cadets, bound for the nearest restau- rant. Pine board tables and tin dishes are very nice things in their places, hut they seldom contain porterhouse steaks and French-fried potatoes. By and by the festoons of electric bulbs hung across Main Street blazed into life and illuminated a gay scene. Boliday crowds thronged the pave- ments, passed in and out of ice cream parlors and restaurants, and gathered about the entrances of street shows and theatres. There was a uniform for every ten feet of pavement : and by the side of every other uniform there was a contented little upturned face. We had met Columbia, and she was ours. The echoes of the twelfth stroke of the city hall clock were hopelessh lost in the Congaree swamps when the last belated straggler reported hack to the wearied corporal. On our downy couches of haled straw, we tried to dream of the contented little upturned face-; but, when at last we fell into a fitful, chilly, chaffy slumber, our disordered dreams were of threshing time; we clung to the topmost point of a mountain of haled oats straw, which threat- ened to topple over and hurl us to everlasting ruin. It is said that weariness can snore upon flint, but no state, save the advanced stages of death or alcoholic intoxication, can induce absolute relaxation on a bed of haled oats straw. It must have been a Senior Civil who waved his hand comprehen- sively over the hills and hollows of his stuffed mattress cover, and announced oratorically, Young gentlemen. I have before me a relief map of the Dark- Corner. Five dollars reward to the man who first locates a moonshiner ' s cabin! Wednesday morning was devoted, in pan. to the exploration of tin captured city. Scouts in Clemson uniform promenaded the streets; they kept the fizz-jerkers busy; they adorned the trolley cars; they strolled about the Capitol green: they sputtered around town in motor cars; they inspected the erstwhile Hotel Colonia; they took note- mi the machinery at the Olympia Mills: they staked paltry sums mi their favorite pacers; they picked the blue-ribbon cattle: they discussed the relative merits of barred Plymouth Rocks and white Wyandottes; they swapped ideas with the gas engine men as to carburetters and magnetos: they patted the choice bird dogs at the bench -how: nor did they neglect the side-show men. But most often our young soldier scouted alone until he crossed the trail of his quarry. Then be lingered about the Clemson exhibit with his prisoner — or captor — pointing out the products of whatever department he happened to he a member of, putting in one word of exposition and two of entreaty, to the amusement of bystanders, who often overheard a gentle i: l 152 rebuke, administered very sweetly: Oh, hush your silly talk and tell me what this shiny thing is for. And do they give you those beautiful apples to cat? And then there was the game — the great, long-looked-for, much-adver- tised, dusty, sweltering. Clemson-Carolina football game. Of course, there were thousands of | pie. and acre- of pennants, and storms of cheering, and the liberation of unlimited pandemonium from five hundred tin horns, operated by the loyal breath of live hundred retainers of the royal Tiger. There were glorious charges, and heautiful punts, and penalizing galore. But, in spile of it all, tlie game was a disappointment. Win? Why. you little, sawed-off, hammered-down ! But the game really was a disappointment. Think of beating Carolina only G to 0! Having seen everything, the corps resolved to be seen, ami to that end, presented itself on dress parade. ' o space could he found long enough to accommodate more than one battalion in line: the turnings were uncom- fortably cramped ; also, there was the buzz of the crowd, the cries of the barkers, the exhaust of many gas-engines, and the incessant roaring of the most untamable animal in captivity. But Ethel thought the parade was jii-t grand; mamma thought it was reall) pretty; dad said the were a line lot of boys; and the colonel said J 1 1 « ■ made a ei imposing appearance, sir. But the climax was reserved for Saturday. For days there hail been speeding toward Columbia, like a Kansas tornado, a smile that covered leagues of territory and laid waste everything in its path. When it reached Columbia, it expanded beyond all reasonable limit.-: ami when it arrived at the Fair Ground.-, four panels of fence had to he removed to let it through. In the tonneau of a big Packard, it -wept along, while a little one-pounder Hotchkiss shattered the atmosphere with the national salute, and the field music woke the echoes with the unwonted strain- of the President ' s march. Present arms! Down between the lines of blue-coated youth the big car buzzed. The smile had reached the limit of elasticity. Lucky it was that it was soon given a chance to relax, for drawn up before the speaker ' s stand were thousands of Loyal Americans, eager to do homage to their nation ' s chief executive by making him stand bareheaded for thirty minutes and shout at them. ' I ' he tempest id ' oratory having -pent it- fury, President and escort then proceeded to the State House, where the former went in to the feast, and the latter remained without that he might eat in peace. Newspaper paragraphers and cartoonists had long heen thrusting before the American public, which likes to he fooled, supposedly exaggerated descrip- 153 K ' l tions and delineations of the unlimited capacity of the Presidential paunch; hut no pen. no brush, can do justice to this most bottomless of caverns, if the length of time required for the satisfaction of its cravings is any gauge of its cubic contents. From noon, until the burnished sun. which Columbia people think, rises in Shandon and sets in the Congaree, had sunk far down toward the horizon, did we stand in our places, guarding the approaches to the Capitol and tightening our belts until the holes were exhausted. We had almost decided that it would be necessary for us to remain over Sunday, when down the broad stairway, between two lines of sentinels at present arms, came the President of Americans and czar of diners. Of feasting sick, of pleasures ill. But smiling, smiling, smiling still. The greal day was ended. A uight of weary, dreary, sleepy travel was before us. After nightfall, Main Street would again echo to the tramp of feci. and the sound of gay laughter and the music of the street shows. The cafes ami soda fountains would again he alive w ith merry throngs. Under the twinkling lights, youth and beauty would still hold carnival. Bui nowhere in the surging crowd would a Clemson uniform he visible; nowhere the rhythm of the soldier step: nowhere the glint of dress chevrons and shoulder bars; only, as the night breeze plays with the little stray locks of some fair, lonely head, the flutter of a hit of old r old and purple ribbon. 155 River Scenes 15(5 .Athletics 15: politics b . Jfootfaall In the nation ' s capital, Washington town, Taft and Teddy to a table sat down; The talk was political, concerning our ships; Their different locations were marked by some chips. Taft was glad Teddy called and showed him his hand. The three fairest ladies in Liberty ' s land. But Teddy was there; he always does things, And smashed Willie ' s hopes with two pairs of kings. The game being ended and Taft being broke About the new Football they commenced to joke. Teddy held out for the rough rider plan And said, What ' s the odds! It ' s only one man; While out in Dakotah when Cowboys can play They ' ll kill twenty-five most any aid day; And go right ahead with the same riding tricks And make the day ' s score a full twenty-six: And if a Lid cheeps or raises a kick, Back, back, to the States they ' ll hustle him quick. Taft, the sly ' possum said with a leer. That ' ll (jo out in Texas, but it ' s on the bum here. You ' ve played out your hand in the President ' s chair. And since you have passed it, it ' s bare, Teddy Bear. My REP is at stake as well as myself. I ' ve got to stand in with Eliot ' s bookshelf. Keep an eyt on Joe Cannon and tab what he thinks, And hold ii ) my cussin till out on the links. 1 must Taboo the horse race and queer the prize fight. And wear my dark glasses when out the first night. The Nations my playground, and it ' s the one best big bit. That I can ' t back Football when it kills a Cadet. Nor let it run smooth as a dish full of gravy. When the same thing occurs at the school for the navy. No; it ' s Baseball for me; I wish it were back. I ' ll shore be deelighted to hear the bats whack. Keep your eyes peeled on Wagner, he ' s onto hi jib, The only one in the business that near equals Cobb. No, golf is a cinch and tennis ain ' t bad, But Baseball ' s the Hot Stuff, for yours truly, lad. So cut out the pig-skin and trot out your bat, Put your sons in a Gym to skinning the cat. Swimming will help them, so will a sprint, One hundred in ten fiat looks swell in print. Ten feet in a vault is pulling ' n high, Eleven foot at a jump is worthy a try. And added to these, when the kid ' s oil ' at college, A glance in his books is conducive to know ledge. So doping it out when football does kill. Cut it out, Teddy darling, to please your Chum.

However, the Tigers drew first blood when Bissell sent a drop kick squarely between Tech ' s goal posts. Five minutes later. Tech scored her first touchdown, and from then to the end of the game it was not hard to see that Tech had the best team. Coach Williams and his team deserve the highest praise, for with a team which was green in the knowledge of the game, and one of the lightest teams representing a Southern college this season, they turned out an eleven which showed in each contest that they were well versed in the science of the game, and fought with such determination that every Clemson man should feel proud of his Alma Mater. In the first game of the season, Clemson defeated the hoys from Barns- ville in a fast practice game by the score of 26 to 0, showing indications of good coaching and systematic training at that early date. On October 2nd, the team journeyed to Blacksburg, ' a.. and in a hard- fought game, blocked the offense of the sturdy Virginians at every stage of the game, until Hughes, the fast quarterback, recovered a fumbled punt and ran thirty yards for a touchdown, the final score being 6 to 0, of which we should feel justly proud when we consider V. P. l. ' s record for the past season. On October 9th. Clemson met Davidson in Charlotte, and smashed her championship aspirations by the score of 11 to . ' The game was one of the most sensational of the season, at times each team showing brilliant form. Clemson demonstrated her offensive ability when she received the kick-off, and by successive gains around end and through the line, scored her liist touchdown without ever losing possession of the oval. On October Kith. Clemson played the University of Alabama in Bir- mingham, and incidentally, had traveled eighteen hundred miles in two weeks Clemson gained a great deal more ground than Alabama, and it 162 Ifi.T Looked as if victory was surely on our side, but Alabama ' s place kick from the forty-nine-yard line turned the tide. However, Clemson rallied and was on the march to victory, when time was called, with the ball on Alabama ' s ten- yard line. The stron g naval team from Port Royal participated in the most inter- esting and sensational game seen on the campus in several years — on October 23rd, when they met defeat at Clemson hands by a score of 19 to 0, which hardly represents the comparative strength of the two teams. However, the Tigers were too shifty for the big fellows, and got away with several long gains. On November 4th, Clemson met her old rival in Columbia at the State Fair, and indeed it was a battle royal. Though the day was like mid-summer, the game was fiercely contested from beginning to end, and time after time Clemson carried the ball within striking distance of Carolina ' s goal, to loose it on a penalty or be held for downs. It was only after a long and sensational run, which placed the ball on the two-yard line, that Clemson scored her only touchdown. Six days later, the fast team from the University of Georgia was defeated in Augusta by a score of 5 to 0, the Tigers, however, reserving a part of their strength to administer a 1? to () defeat to the Citadel two days later in Charleston. In the last game of the season, Clemson lost to Georgia Tech in a hard- fought battle by a score of 29 to 3, which by no means represented the com- parative strength of the two teams, on Thanksgiving Day. several of the touch- downs being extremely accidental, though we admit we were defeated fairly and by a team which we believe was better than ours. However, we are living in hopes of retrieving our lost laurels on next Thanksgiving Day in Atlanta, and if hard work and determination count for victory, Clemson will have it on turkey day. 161 165 icrufa ®eam of 1909 Williams and Hull i Trott (Captain) ( !l .YTON, ( ' enter ScHILLETER, ( rUard Foster Guard Fulmer, Tackle ( I i)v, Tackle Moore, Tackle Tupper, Quarter ( !oac hes .

In all the choosing and picking that is usually done by college men on a number of football teams, it seemed that very few picked the Juniors for champions There is really only one now. besides our own classmates, who contended that the Juniors would win. This was Dr. Calhoun. He said from the beginning that the Juniors would win by having so many swift men. Our coaches. Robbs and White, realized very early that the success of the team would depend on its speed. Our first game of the season was played against the Preps., who were doped to win by a large More, hut when the referee ' s whistle announced the end of the game, the score stood. Juniors, 11 ; Preps, 0. When the time for the Junior-Fresh game came around, things didn ' t look so easy as the Prep game of the previous week. In the first half the score stood (i to 0. It seemed that the Juniors just got their blood up by the second half. In a short time the score was run up to 17. The final results added another decisive victory to our list. Results. 17 to 0. 167 The Sophs were yet i show what they had in store for us. Everyone IVIt thai this would be the hardest game of them all. since the Sophs had defeated the Freshmen. It is always hard to judge very accurately the strength of a football team. The first half of the game resulted in 5 to in favor of the Juniors. The second half was certainly haul fought. It was impossible to stop the little Juniors, and when the game was called, the M-oie was 22 fo i; in favor of the Juniors. This gave the Juniors a clear title to the championship cup.

Meets 1st in one 2nd in other The track season of 1909 was one of the most victorious ever experienced by an athletic team at Clemson. In its consideration, three salient features especially merit mention. There are hut three records: those for the high jump, t he low hurdles and the mile run, now held by members of teams before 1909, and these had narrow escapes. It is an uncommon thing for a track team to contest on two successive days. The work is so exhausting and demands so much of the individual man that it is customary to allow a week to elapse between meets. Yet the UK) ' .) team won, and by large scores, on two successive days. On Friday April ' I ' .i, the University of Georgia was defeated on her own grounds by a score of 24 1-2 to 83 1-2. The next day. in Atlanta, the Georgia School of Technology fared even worse, getting the wrong end of a 28-to-80 score. In these t wo meets, Clemson lost but two firsts. This is indicative of the strength and endurance of the men, due in part to conscientious training. These qualil ies were again in evidence when, after a hard 1 rip of 24 hours, the [nter-Collegi ate track meet was won at Nashville. Theeight Clemson men administered to the hosts of Vanderbill the firsl defeat of her history on her own grounds. Although not the only colleges represented, the real contest was between Vanderbilt and Clemson, the then undisputed champions of the South. This greatest track event of the season was won by eight firsts, five i:i seconds and five thirds. One Southern record was tied and several more were nearly shattered by the fast Clemson team. As an appreciation of the L909 track team one might say, never has Clemson spirit shown to better advantage in a Clemson team. Clean, honest, hard-training sportsmen they are. every one. Never defeated until the tape was broken or the last trial made.

All the Classes fought hard in friendly rivalry for victory and for the beautiful trophy cup offered by Prof. Calhoun. The Class of HMO showed herself to be superior to her opponents in track, as she had in class football in the early spring, and won by the margin of five points. Class of 1910 made 44 points; Class of 1909, 39 points; while Kill, 1912 and 1913 followed in order named. The individual winners were as follows: 100-Yard Dash . Shot Put (16 Pounds) 1-2 Lap Relay.

As the days rolled on and the time drew near for the season to open, the Tigers roared in their dens, and awaited their antagonists. Among the first prey that they pounced upon were the laddies from Athens, (la. The University, as we all know, had defeated Clemson three times during the season of 1908: but, as the Tigers marched on the field that afternoon, there seemed to be something in their spirits that helped to a victory. The (Jeorgia boys underestimated the strength of our team, and, as a result, we scalped them. 2 to 0. The next day we again proved our strength by defeating them to the tune of 10 to 3. During the season, we won ten and lost twelve games; but, in the ones lost, our men fought the battle to the last. Determined to win if possible, they were on their toes throughout the whole game, and it goes without saying that this is what it takes to make a winning baseball team. With Cochran, our star rightfielder who batted .469 last season, and Captain Kirby, the brilliant second baseman, back again, we hope to see Clemson with such an aggregation in 1910 as can compete with any team in the S. I. A. A., and at the end of the season we hope to see Clemson with the pennant flying high over Bowman Field. R. .1. Reynolds . ... . Coach B. E. Wolff . . . . Manager W. R.

The onh courts on the campus belong 1 the Y. M. ( ' . A., ami are under its supervision. The four courts of the Association arc used constantly, but so many play that no cue gets to use the courts often and regularly enough to become expert. It is to be hoped that the Athletic Association will take the matter in hand and make tennis as much of a college game as football. This will probabh be done some time in the near future, as the Athletic Association has shown its interest by defraying the expenses of two men at the State [nter- collesriate meet. 184 We do not mean thai the Y. M. ( ' . A. should no! continue to liave tennis courts, but that the Athletic Association will build more, thereby encouraging one of the most popular games in college. To show the increased interest all over the United States, tennis was recentl y voted the most popular phase of athletic- in one of the largest institutions in the country.

Dr. Calhoun is in charge of this work, and under his efficient coaching much good has been accomplished. At different times, the teams have given performances, which is evidence enough to prove the fact that a greater work can be done in the future and the students themselves deriving the benefit. There are many boys who do Qot seem to care for any other kind of athletics, but take great interest in the gymnasium; and it is these boys that we wish to help. I p to the present, our hall is entirely too small to accommo- date the number that desire to take it. There is no reason why Clemson should not become as distinguished for her gymnasium teams as for her football and baseball teams. The success which this sport has met with in the past leads us to believe that in the near future we shall see erected on our campus, a large, well-equipped gymnasium, containing a swimming pool. 191 1jfl fo ft 192 is ong£ gelte COACH SONG We got a good coach: You got a bum coach; All Dixie ' s children got a coach.

He has been a man thai lias ever labored hard and continually for our best interests, fie has helped us by proving thai one can live a clean, consistent, active and joyous hristian life, by living such a life himself. He has mil iuiIy encouraged us by his ( hristian influences, bul he has also tried to make us increase our efforts so that we mighi count lor something in the world. He is ever ready to lend a helping hand to anyone in trouble, and always sympathizes with those who are striving lor the right. About the middle of the college year our beloved secretary went to visit hi- old home, and while there he decided to take unto himself a better-half. We are all glad to welcome Mis. Provost as one of our friends and hope that his greal work here will he increased by the assistance of her. In future clays we cannot hut feel sure that we shall lock hack and realize the great and lasting influence of this man. 211 f . Jfl. C. a. Cabinet W. J. Marshall, Vice-President II. S.

In a short time we will step forth into the busy, strenuous, exciting life of the world. As we conquer in our battles for right, we shall look back on our college life to inquire into the associations there that have helped us must in our preparation for life. Not a few will contribute t the Young Men ' s Christian Association the honor of having given them the besl preparation for the struggles of life. There was little work done in the Y. M. ( ' . A. at Clemson prior to the year 1905, but in the tall of that year the Association secured as its general secretary Mr. R. H. Legate, of the University of Arkansas, ami from that time forward the work here has made powerful progress. The mosl effective and far-reaching work has been done along the lines of Bible study. Our Association has gained a national reputation in this department, having enrolled about 150 out of 550 men. This fact shows thai college men are realizing that knowledge of the Scriptures is essential. The manner in which the Bible study work is conducted, fills a greal need at this institution. There is a professor or a local minister leading cadi normal group, thereby bringing the local ministers ami the Faculty closer to the boys socially. Each Bible group has aboul ten men. headed or led by one of the students himself. In this way the boys learn to form the dearesl of friendships. The Sunday night meeting is perhaps one of the greatest features of the Association. At these meetings addresses are made by the ver besl speakers of the country on the chosen topics for college men. During the past session such speakers as Dr. V. D. Weatherford, Mr. ( ' . K. Ober, Professor D. V. Daniel and many others of similar reputation have addressed the Association. The opportunity one lias to engage in practical Christian work is of inestimable value. This habit not only creates in a person the love for Christian work, hut it prepares him for Christian leadership in after life. The college Y. M. C. A. presents itself to a boy during the formative period, when he is prone to forget his simple childhood teachings, and reaches out for deeper and more substantial reasons for Christian life. It i the purpose of the Y. M. C. A. to guide him through this dangerous period and to send him forth into the world prepared to meet the temptations that besel all men. with courage and strength to win for the right. The Associ ation at Clemson has gradually grown in all of its depart- ments until, to-day, it stands forth as one of the strongest college Y. M. C. A. ' s of America. There are many improvements yet to he made before it can teach its climax of success. Perhaps the greatest need is that id ' an associa- tion building. We, the graduating class of 1910, hope that the men into whose hands we have placed the work, may he able to do much where we have done little; we hope that they may have a large building where we have had a small room; we hope that they may help many where we have helped few. 313 14 fflv. anb fflv$. . $. ©rake announce tfje marriage of tfjetr baugtjter iSetttc to Mv.

MARCH 15, 1910 No. 12 AN INTERRUPTED MEETING. and New Cadet Makes Grave Mistake Suffers Serious Results. Lasl Thursday evening, the faculty had assembled in the President ' s office for their usual weekly carousal. Each one was on time — Done are ever late, for fear someone will gel i e than his share of the Old Virginia Cheroots. The meeting was go- ing in g 1 order, at leasl the smoking phase of it was. when the fumes of the burnt up breakage fee became so dense that a window had t he raised, .lust at this time, a Rat, who hail nut become accustomed to such proceedings, spied the black volume of smoke curling through the open window. Thinking that the entile college building was one mass nf unconquerable flames, he began to jump up and down, yelling at the tup of his voice, Fire! Fire! Seeing that no one was coming to Ins assistance, the frightened boj determined to he a lone hero: so he hastily snatched off his coat ami rushed into the supposed burning room. The smoke nearly blinded him. hut the outline nf about fifty reeumbenl figures met his horrified gaze. What a task to remove fifty unconscious men from the approaching flames! What a chance to win a corporalcy! While these terrifying thoughts were passing through his mind, the rescuer seized the nearest sage, and started fur the door; but this person was -nun aroused from his reverie, and being ' con- siderable size, he nnii gained In- feel and held the poor boy fast, saying: Well, sir; well. sir. this is no place for Smith Carolina gentlemen in here. Histor y has never re- corded such an insolent act. Throw him mit the window, said another. Try him now, said -till another. The last sugges- tion had scarcely been made before it was put into execution. The innocent fellow was put upon the stand, and he stated in a ei eloquent manner how he thought his name would he heralded down through the corridors of time as the greal saver nf his college and so many live-, hut it all amounted i nothing. And now, as he follows Old Mike ' down the corn row, he can he heard cheerilv singing, (ice whiz, I ' m so glad I ' m free. RAT DISCOVERS HALLEYS COMET.

There has been some ill feeling among the different members of the faculty for some time, bul the climax was reached last Friday night at a social gathering, when the trackman of the faculty called upon the Superintendent of the Sunday School for a toast on the ladies. The honorable super- intendent claimed that he had been insulted by being asked to toast something he knew absolutely nothing about. ' Filings went from had to worse, and the following sides were drawn: Principals, hacks and Hobo; sec- onds. Rastus and do Jo; referees, Father and Little doe: timekeepers, Crip ami Mick- chick: surgeons, Daddy and Prep; water carriers, Misery and King Sease; casualties, one bald head, two broken ribs, four black eyes: time, twenty-three minutes: audience, entire faculty and corps of cadets. It is useless to undertake to describe how much the performance was enjoyed, and as this one was a draw, the corps of cadets unanimously voted another one for next Fri- day night between Dickie and do do. Now. in behalf of the corps of cadets, we wish to thank the faculty for their much appreciated entertainments. We feel that it is our duty to compliment our esteemed surgeon upon his successful treatment during the recent epidemic of measles. It might be of scientific interest to know that there were five hundred and thir- teen cadets with symptoms of measles so evident that these had to he excused from all dut lor two weeks, and yet so miraculous was the treatment that only one case de- veloped. It is of interest to the medical world to know that three hundred and twelve of these patients were so far affected that their temperature registered L8? F by the lire. Yet each one of them still lives! The cadets sent Dock a vote of thanks for excus- ing them so Ioiil: ' . SENIOR CLASS Quite a commotion was created in barracks last Wednesday night, when it was learned that our esteemed classmate, Mr. A. A. Mc- Keown. had not spoken for nine whole sec- onds. His ever alert roommate realized that something was seriously wrong, and imme- diately spread the alarm. However, Mr. Mc- Keown soon gained his fluency of speech — the cause of this protracted silence being his grief over the death of one of his beagle hounds. Our captain and adjutant. Mi 1 . Pegues, having burnt every cadet here seven times. then proceeded to ignite himself last Thurs- day, and. as a result, he is now wearing his right arm in a sling. After all our worry and trouble, the un- expected (?) has happened. In a recent meeting with the Senior (Mass, Captain Stokes officially announced that the Seniors would have unlimited privileges, both civil and religious, after dune 8, 1910. Though expected by some, it was not thought that we would he granted such freedom so early. However, Captain Stokes has the welfare of the Seniors at heart, and ibis accounts for his libei ality. And. now it gives us great pleasure to pass these privileges down to the succeeding class, and we sincerely hope that they will he as (un) fortunate as we have been. Clemson is to he congratulated upon hav- ing a commandant that can make such stirring Sunday School addresses. In his famous address. ■ The Value of the Sunday School, the whole audience was moved to tears (?) when the dearl beloved speaker arose, lie. having been to Sunday School once when small, was thoroughly familiar with the subject and gave some excellent ad- vice concerning the advisability of nol break- ing confinements. We predict that he will be the next Superintendent of the Sunday School. •J 1 s THE TIGER WANT COLUMN. LOST AND FOUND TTTT ANTED— Something to eat— Corps of Ca- dets. WANTED— To know who sen!

I forgot about that letter I got from that old lady concerning her son, that I dismissed for smoking. Can ' t waste my time with such people when their sons are guilty of such serious offences. Thursday, September 16, 1909 9 a. m. Had to spend entire day talking with Seniors about their privi- leges. Let me see what concessions 1 have made to them: All Seniors may have all night lights, provided they go to bed at Taps. May have the exclusive privilege of visiting each other at all times, when it is not called to quarters, pro- vided more than three do not congregate in one room; will not be required to drill only when whole corps does, but must meet me in chapel on rainy days; will not be required to go In Classes but five days in the week, but may come on duty the other day; shall be required to attend formations only at each call. They shall be allowed perfect liberty of campus privileges on Saturday and Sunday, provided they do not have confinements.

There will be no need for me to apologize for not having written to yon yesterday, for, when you have read this, I know yon will forgive me, as I have always forgiven you in the past. Many times 1 have withstood the onrush of an entire eleven on the gridiron, I have reported an entire eorp of cadets for applauding in the mess hall, and I have even looked a commandant square in the eves and declared that drilling is a pleasure; but never before last night have I had to stand on Mother Earth in the darkest hours of the night and watch the rear of a coveted train fade away in the distance. This train carried mv many friends hack to college, but left me, poor me, out in the dreary stillness of the country, five miles from the nearest point of civilization — Helton. S. C. There was nothing to do, dear, but think of you — and — tell God all about it. Perhaps, dear, yon ate in suspense to know how all this came about. Upon my word of honor. I am a member of the Anti-Saloon League, and am a total abstainer. 1 have no weak-minded ancestors, therefore, you can plainly see that I was thinking only of a dimpled-cheeked little lass down on the hanks of the Edisto. Yes, dear. 1 was thinking of you ami only of you. I had written you a card that just had to he mailed on the First train that traveled in your direction. Soon my train pulled into a siding to allow a southbound train to pass. With one leap. I was on the platform, and the next instant I was rushing towards the mail car of the slowly passing train. The card was thrown to the mail clerk, who was standing between the open doors. With fond and alert eyes, I watched to see the mail man catch this loving epistle. Lo and behold, lie missed it. and through the door on the other side it went. This card just had to he mailed, and. with all the speed at my command. 1 passed 0VCT the platform of the slowly-moving train to regain this valuable card. The card was found as quickly as possible, and then another race ensued. On and on the train and 1 matched our speeds against each other. I gained little by little, until finally the door of the mail car was reached again. With eagerness and loving thoughts of you. I reached up to place the card in the mail clerks hands. The door was closed. Oh. my! wdiat disappointment. Then the thoughl of my train came to me. and I stalled hack again to my college friends. Op the track, about a quarter of a mile. my train was speeding towards Clemson, and here I stood, card in hand. thinking of you and — telling God all about it. 1 thought of the past, the present, and the future: hut none of this thinking helped me to reach Clemson. I yelled, I whistled. I sang, 1 almost wept. Far off in the distance there flickered a dim light through the cracks of a log cabin. All the energy there was left in me I exerted in going towards this small sign of civilization. After much calling and a small scrap with the yard dog, in which encounter my pants were torn — near Belton, S. ( ' .. — a negro came to the door and 1 told him of mv terrible predicament. lie informed me that the only traveling animal he possessed ■2X was an ox thai would not return to the house till daybreak. He offered cue a c fortable bed on a pile of straw, and then called his van! i in. realizing thai we were no longer, enemies. At daybreak the ox arrived, and sunn 1 was being carried to the nearest railroad station. It was a long and tiresome journey. I had to spend quite awhile in this great town of Belton waiting for my train, and everybody looked inquiringly at the result of my scrap with the dog. At last I am hark at Clemson. Dear, won ' t you forgive me this tunc I ' m- writing one day late? your loving one, ii.X.W A. BEEF. 1 ' . S. — Find enclosed posl card. ©uv Clemson i Hi. yes. we arc all Clemson lads.

A. Barnette appeared attired in his black broadcloth and high-heeled shoes, every cadel gazed at him in wonder and astonishment. Well, he is a sport, was the general barracks ' comment as the above named youngster strode haughtily towards .Mr. Clink ' s livery stable. Hitch up the best horse in the stable for inc. In- commanded the stableman with over- captainish authority. Vas. sah. said Brock, smiling broadly, and glancing at those shiny shoes from the corner of his eye. Finally the turnout was ready and Bed drove away, after dropping a nickel into Brock ' s expectant palm, while the latter muttered to himself: Dis lip sho ' ain ' t kommenserrate wid de importans of his looks. As the curtain rises upon the next scene, all conjectures are casl aside, for here we see the spotlessly attired young man calmly reposing in a comfortable arm-chair before a cheerful country lire. Bui this was nut all. By his side sat a beautiful brunette of about eighteen summers. Together they chatted merrily, merrily, utterly oblivious id ' the rapidity of which time was flying. The old clock pointed in the midnight hour. The lire burned low ; the two moved closer to — . Comfort and happiness reigned supreme in the eoz room. However, on the outside, stood Red ' s faithful horse, chilled through by the cold midnight wintr Mast-. He -tamped great holes in the frozen earth, hut still his huge frame shivered. He neighed once; he neighed twice. Red heard and understood, hut seemed chained to the spot by the en- trancing beauty of the maiden. Another neigh, followed quickly by a sharp crack. could not fail to arouse the enchanted youngster to the situation. He sprang to the window in time to see the rapidly retreating animal pass out of sight, down the bright, moonshiny lane. Farewell! the horse seemed to -a to Red. farewell! said Red, half-way down the steps, to the astonished young lady. The race was on. The horse had a lead of one hundred yards, hut was encumbered with the buggy. Along flev horse and man. with the latter gradually gaining. Broad- cloth was made to do the work of a track -nil: patent leathers were put to the crucial test. Over hill and dak 1 , through mud and mire, they raced. Hut. when Red was most certain of winning, the cushion fell out id ' the buggy at his feet. With unchecked speed, he shouldered tin- extra burden without a sigh — still hoping. The heavy breathing of the runner- could he heard. ' o wonder! three miles, eight minutes and three seconds. The stable was reached. ' I ' he race was a tie. (Sleepily, Brocli came forth, hut put on his usual smile, when Mr. Barnette dropped a Five-dollar bill into hi- hand and said : Keep this to yourself. On his way to barracks, .Mr. Barnette hummed: Woe worth the night; woe worth the chase, When a il fool horse sets the pace. 2:?. ) ro S S S© ? 236 2 3 -, 238 Mentor Banting Club L. L. LaRoche J. L.
