CLEMSON CLASS
FOOTBALL TEAMS BUSY

CLEMSON COLLEGE. S. c., Jan. r.
Despite the fact that the mercury nestled
close to the freezing point all day, the
opening practice for class football this
afternoon found between 80 and 10C cold,
but enthusiastic candidates from the pre-
paratory, freshman, sophomore and jun
Tor classes busily working out on Bow
man field. The interest in class football
always keen at Clemson-seems to be
at high tide this year, and it is hoped
that much good material will be develop
ed for next season within the next few
weeks.
At a recent meeting of the various
classes, the following coaches and man
ayers were elected:
Junior class: Coaches. w. p. White and
F. Gilmer, and manager, ]. M. Martin.
Sophomore class: Coaches, c. NJ. Hobbs
and w. II. Hanckel, and manager, Eel.
Freshman class: Coaches, o. A. Hy-
drick and P. L. Bissell, and manager, S.
Y. Tuoper.
Preparatory class: Coach, E. H. Pinck-
ney.
Though a regular schedule of games
has not yet been announced, they will
be played off just as the respective teams
can round into shape, in order to make
room for baseball, and by the end of this
month the college championship will
probably have been decided. A hand
some trophy cup will be awarded the
winning team This cup was won last
year by the class CT 1910, but, according
TO the ruling II the faculty, the senior
class is not permitted to put out team,
and last years champions will not be
in the race again this year. Every class
has husky bunch of material. at work,
and it is as yet impossible TO forecast the
result of the coming games.

Following is the commissioner letter:
January 10. 19O9-Hon. Joseph M.
Brown. Governor Of Georgia, Atlanta,
Ga.-Dear Sir: Many thanks for the
information given in your notice of the
Sth instant of the ability of the state
treasurer to make payment of the pen
sions due for 1910 at an early day. as
sure YOU that I am as much concerned
about the needs of these people as your
eYcellency can possibly be, and that every
effort is being made to get ready to make
this payment at the very earliest DAY
possible Under the law, the pension pay
rolls are required to be certihed after the
first day of January in each year. The
ordinaries have been requested to have
i'm this office these payrolls not later than
the, 10th instant, but up to this date there
have been only so counties received, and
as of these found correct. 1t requires
much time to have the corrections made
by correspondence
THE department cannot present its
reuuistion for the warrant to pay these
pensions until all the payrolls have been
sent in and correctly checked out. When
this is done a check can be sent to all
the same day. Just as soon as the work
can be completed the requisition will be
presented to you and the payment made,
which we hope to be able to do at the
earliest day possible. Yours respectfully
JOHN w. LINDSEY,
Commissioner of Pensions"

The Spirit of Winter

The Spirit of Winter is with us. making
its presence known in many different
ways-sometimes by CHEEKY sunshine and
glistening SHOWS, and sometimes by driv-
ing winds and binding storms. To many
people it seems to take delight in maxi
ing bad things worse, for rheumatism
twists harder, twinges sharper, catarrh
becomes more annoying, and the many
symptoms of scrofula are developed and
aggravated. There is not much poetry
in this, but there is truth. and it Is a
wonder that more people don't get rid of
these ailments. The medicine that cures
them-Hood's Sarsaparilla-is easily OBJ
tanned and there is abundant proof that
it's cures are radical and permanent. 49,
