the auditorium where they took their
seats in spaces arranged county by

through the buildings by the stu
dents from their counties. After a
tour of the grounds informal recep-
tions occupied the time until dinner
was announced. At the dinner,
which was enjoyed by some 1,2OO
persons, after dinner speeches were
made in response to the following
toasts: The State of South Carroll

Robert E Lee," Lieut. Gov Charles

"The General Assembly," DR. George

D B Johnson, president of Winthrop
college, presided as toastmaster.
After dinner a concert was given
in honor of the visitors and the train
left Rock Hill for Columbia at z

Caesar, with all of his court, never
exceeded the speed limit.
Are your wages too small? In

Are the lights too dim? David
wrote his Psalms by the light of

Are you ugly? Cleopatra, though
homely, bewitched two emperors.
Are you cold? The soldiers of
Valley Forge walked barefoot on the
ice and snow.
Are you hungry? The children of
India are starving for want of a

Are you tired? Why fret aboutlt
Jacob was tired when ne dreamed of

Are you sick? Suppose you had
