This is how it happened. Both

Roosevelt has returned. NOW what IS
he going to do? What is he going to
say? He said nothing today except
that all these who quote him as say
ing anything whatever on politics for
some weeks.
The reception was bully" from his
standpoint. That is, plenty of noise
was made. The fact that most Of it
was made by the boats and guns Of
the United States government ana at
the expense Of the same did not dis
turb the enthusiasm Of his apprecia-

some million or S. of people, turned

am convinced, however, that
neither wild Indian S~aturnalias in
New York nor yet funeral professions
are any real indication of what the
people think or that they thinl1 at all.
The truth is the folks of this town do
much thinking any way. They only
yell and make a noise or else they are

to get excited. They like Roosevelt
though the real people, the -four mil

They like him because he believes
in a noise and affords occasion for
them to make it. That so far as /
today can gather is the spirit of his
ovation today. But while there was
some noise and a goodiy number turn

out for the much advertised tremen-
dous nation wide ovation somehow

1t was advertised that there would
be something like $50 boats to go

There was the battleship South Car
DINA, and the most conspicuous Of
the bunch and along with it three
beautiful orpedo boat destroyers,
then there was a whole fleet of reve-

other subsidiary craft. Several large
excursion boats were out with fairly
good crowds aboard though none of
them were filed to more than half

TREES SAVED FLYERS LIFE.
Clifford B. Harmon, Amateur Aviator,

New York, July 11.-Clifford B.

aviator, made an attempt this even

City, L. l., across Long Island sound,

Not only did he fail, but his ma
chine fell a distance of $50 feet and
was wrecked.
Harmon was badly shaken up, but
not severly injured, the branches of
trees having broken the fall.
After tuning up, Harmon was off
at 81 p. m, but the weight of pom
toons, which he attached to his craft
to insure its floating, proved too much
to carry, and he was forced to alight
after going less than a mile.

disappeared in the direction Of his

4 FRIEND OF CLEMSON.
Te Has Beer Auditing the Books Of
the Institution and Was amazed
ut hat He Lear I'D.

Mr.. J. B. Haltiwanger, of Edgefeld,
is spending today in the city. He is
on his way home from Clemson COL
lege, where he has been for several
weeks auditing the books of the in
stitution.
Mr. Haltiwanger is now one of the
strongest friends and advocates Of
Clemson college in the country. and"
he said today, II have not always been
a friend of the institution. In fact,
when l went there several weeks ago
to do this work, it was rather with a
feeling of unfriendliness. I had read
so many unfriendly criticisms of
Clemson college in some of the news
papers that was prejudiced against
the institution. But after going there,
and getting acquainted with what is
being done, and the cost Of it, my
views have undergone change I am
now a firm believer in Clemson col
lege.
"a great deal of money is spent at
the college, in one way and another,
but it is all spent wisely. The figures
as to the cost per student amazed me,
the cost was so small. Of course, /
can not give out these figures, but !
suppose this will be done by the col
lege officials. They ought to be made
public. at any rate, in order to show
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1910-07-15

the people how we'll the college is
being managed.
"Clemson college is a most valuable
institution. I had no idea of the eX-
tent of it's greatness and usefulness
nntil I went there. The people ought
to be educated about Clemson. The
college has been greatly misrepresent-
ed."
Mr.. Haltiwanger audited the books
Of the Anderson county officials last
summer and has done a great deal of
similar work throughout the State.
What he says about Clemson will have
great deal of weight and will be very
gratifying to the friends of the insti-
tuition.
