Mr.. Sage further says.

" The boy who is wanted in tho
business world of today must be
educated. If his parents cannot afford to
give him a college or a high school
education he must learn to study
without the aid of teacher, in the early
mornings before business begins, and
In the evenings after business hours.
1t can no longer be truthfully said tn al
an education IS out of any ones

This is the advice of a man who is
one of the most conspicuous business
successes of our time, and who has
amassed one of the largest fortunes In
America. II cannot possibly be

Sheep and hogs may be considered as

that other animals reject, gather them
for themselves and enrich the land

The Farmer Boys College

CoLUMs A, S. c., Feb. 1.-The
board OF trustees OF Clemson College
met tonight at Wright's Hotel. The
session was long one and considerable
business was transacted. At IL O'Clock
it was announced that the board would
continue in session until 2 A. M. a
great deal Of time was spent discussing
financial matters and subdlViding and
arranging the work of the committees
on experimental station and executive.
The trustees decided to elect board
of visitors, consisting OF one from each
Congressional district, to be elected
every two years by the board of trustees
at their December meeting. The board
OF visitors are to visit the College the
first Wednesday 10 August and institute
a rigid inquiry into its working condition
and suggest to the board OF trustees what
changes, if any, they may deem neces'
sary. The first board Of visitors con-

The members of the board have read
with aereat deal of interest the interview
OF Prof. Newman. They must have

the board reconsidered and general
reconciliation. The interview 40
doubt put an end to all such plans.
