$4,000 FOR CHlCORA
FROM GREENVILLE
Continued from Page one.)

the needs OF Chicora College and the
urgent necessity of raising $4,000 in
Greenville for the erection OF dor
mitory and the making of certain
improvements in the present plant
that are obliged to be made at once.
Short talks were made by DIR. T. w.
Sloan, Mr.. NJ. f.. Ansel, Mr.. c.. e.
Graham. Mr. G. G. Mayes and others.
The burden of the talks was the fact
that, from business standpoint if
from no other, Greenville could not
afford to let Chicora College be re-
provements in the present plant were
absolutely necessary; that conditions
such as class room accommodations
etc, at the college now were almost
unbearable; that the necessary relief
should be forthcoming from the city
of GreenvillG, and must be forthcom-
ing If the institution is to remain
here.
100000 Year.
AS matter of dollars and cents,
Chicora College is worth 100000 a
year to the city of Greenville. That
much money Is spent here every year
because of the institution Greenville
is asked to come forward now and
give $4,000 to college that will
give back $600,000 in the course of
10 years. Thus it can be seen what
loss to Greenville the removal of
the college would be, that is, meas
ured in dollars and cents. 1t was
the unanimous opinion Of the con
ference yesterday afternoon that the
removal of the college from Green
Vile would demoralize Presbyterian
ism in this city, and prove BLACK
eye" to the community as whole
that would not be eradicated in years
Brief History of College.
Chicora College was organized in
1893 under the auspices of the three
Presbyterian churches of the city Of
Greenville. Thirteen years later it
was bought by the Presbyteries of
the Synod OF South Carolina. Since
its organization. the institution has
grown steadily. Dormitory capacity
has been increased from year to year
as the needs Of the institution de-
manded until three years ago, when
the present beautiful building was
finished.
Notwithstanding frequent enlarge
ments of the plant, the patronage ex-

ceeded the material developments,
and the institution has been compell-
ed to refuseI applicants new for
three years. Owing to the great de-
mand for enlarged accommodations
the board of trustees thought SER
iously of removing to some subur-
ban site and selling the, present val
liable property in order to get larg-
er equipment However it has been
decided to allow the college to re-
mdin where 1t is and to plan devel-
opments there.

Annroves of Modern Dress.

Many severe things have been said
of the inartistic qualities of mans
dress in modern times, SO that it
comes as a pleasing surprise to hear
a word spoken in it's defense by no
less an authority than Antonio de la
Gandara, the portrait painter. "In the
first place." he says people dress
very well in these days. Thus, as
regards the men, think of their even
ing dress clothes! Admire the sober
lines, the perfect harmony! One daz-
zling point alone in the whole CO.'S
tune, the white surface of the shirt
front, and all else is black, nothing
but black. Do you know anything
more beautiful? Never, possibly, has
mans dress been nobler. In cen
turys time, 1t will be said, With what
perfect art men of that time used to

Tokio-A sensation was created in
Toxic by the recent attempt at sui

The light is good and there is little
wind, so that any animals crossing the
river can be easily heard. Suddenly
the stiffness of the morning was brok-

in the river. Caribou had crossed and
landed close to where my canoe was
hidden. Fortunately, they kept clear
of my trail. 1t was only small herd,
but they came within range and
made two exposures. Scarcely had l
reloaded the camera than another and
larger herd came into view. What a
superb sight they presented as they
walked with quick steps along the
lead which would give me the best
chance with the camera. So quiet
was the morning that the curious
