Clemson Scholarships

Editor County Record
am writing to remind the boys
that there are two vacant four-year
scholarships for Williamsburg at
Clemson college. Last year one of
these scholarships went begging,
and | hope that will not be the case
this year. Besides the regular schol-
arshlps there is an additional one
year agricultural scholarship to be
awarded to one of three or more
boys recommended by the county
Farmers Union. The boy or man
who gets this must be lS or more
years old, and his chance for appoint
ment will depend to a great extent
on what he has already done in an
agricultural way.
The purpose Of this course is to
give one boy in each county every
year as full a course in agriculture
as possible in the time. Those inter-
ested will take the matter up at
once with Mr. ] T Frierson, Mouzon,
S C, secretary of the county Farm
ers' Union. The examination will
take place at the court house at the
same time as examination for other
scholarships. l think algebra will
not be required for entrance to this
class. JG MCCULLOUGH,
