TO SEND TWO BOYS
UNIVERSITY CLUB WILL LEND
THEM THE NEEDED FUNDS.
TO COMPLETE THEIR STUDIES.
SAVANNAH BOYS WILL BE GIVEN
PREFERENCE by THE CLUB.

Regular Meeting of the University
of Three Was Appointed to Select
Two Boys who Want to Go to the
state University-Funds VIII BE
Loaned by the Club, to BE Repaid
at the Convenience of the Bene-
ficiaries-A Number Have Won an
Ehucnti0n by This Means.
The quarterly meeting of the Uni
versity Club was held last night in
it's rooms at the Hussars' Club. Col.
P. w. Meldrim, president, presided,
and Mr.. Pratt Adams. in the absence
of Mr.. Walter T. Johnson, acted as
secretary.
After the transaction of the routine
business of the meeting, the discussion
turned upon the question of sending
boys to the State University. 1t was
shown that the finances of the club
are in excellent condition, the balance
being such as to admit of loans being
made to boys who are anxious to Sc
cure a collegiate education.
A committee of three was appointed.
with power to act, to select Two boys
to attend the University reXt term.
The funds necessary for their support
at the institution will be furnished by
the club, to be repaid upon the bene-
ficiaries leaving college anc being in
position to earn money. This plan
has been followed Turing the more
than ten years of the clubs existence,

number of young men to Sc
cure a higher education who inlght
otherwise, have found it impossible.
savannah Boys First Chance.
Preference will be given by the
committee to Savannah boys. 1t is
understood that there are several
who have expressed a desire to be-
come beneficiaries of the club, and,
with the advertisement of the clubs
readiness to send more young men TO
college, 1t is not improbable that even
more applicants will appear.
In selecting those to whom 1t lends
money for educational purposes the
club seeks to be assured that its benz
eficiaries will apply themselves and
make the most of their opportunities.
1t is worse than useless to send some
boys to college, fact that the mem
bers of the club, being themselves
university men, appreciate. For this
reason those characteristics of the APP
plicants that may render them likely
to secure the greatest advantage from
their stay at Athens are considered.
Has Aided Several Boys.
1t has not always been the case that
funds of the club have been loaned to
none other than a Savannah boy. Two
or three from other places have been
recipients of money advanced. In such
cases, however, there were no Savan-
nah boys applying for loans.
Some of those to whom considerable
sums were loaned have repaid them in
full. Others are still making their
payments. They are permitted to pay
at their own convenience.
No great amount is required to car
ry an economical boy through a year S
course at Athens, He can get his room
free of rent, and there is no cost for
tuition. His board can be secured at
Denmark Hall for So month.

CRANBERRY INDUSTRY is BIG.
Fruit Grown in Boys Costing from
$500 to $500 an Acre.

One Of the notable successes of 1901
is the cranberry business; for, when
the last of the yield was picked, an ag-
gregate Of 100000 bushels was
reached. BY comparing this with the
yieldof 1,9O0-569,O 900 bushels-the
success stands revealed.
The cranberry is as closely allied
to the Christmas dinner as holly to
the Christmas tree: but, of the mil
lions who enjoy the tart berry, few
know how it is cultivated. The ber-
ries are grown in bogs that cost from
$500 10 $500 an acre. The soil in
which they flourish is composed of
peat and clean sharp sand, the latter
being absolutely essential to healthy
growth.
The bush Oh which the berries ap-
pear grows about six inches high and
every year it puts out runners" that,
in turn, take root and form new
bushes; SO that, when a bog first be-
comes productive, five years from the
time OF its beginning, it is thickly
covered with bushes.
This growth is accentuated by sys-
tenn Of irrigation that keeps the bog
water-soaked, though not to such a
degree as to cause anything like
liquid state. The irrigating plan is
most useful as a protection against
frost; for, when the grower believes a
frosty night at hand, he opens the
food gate and allows the water to
overflow his bog, until it is from
eighteen to twenty inches over bush
and berry. The next morning the bog
is drained and the fruit picked
The picking process is a simple
