The opinion was expressed in Co.

sembly can do little to relieve the
situation in South Carolina. A
state warehouse system could be
put into effect in time to help this

of time for payment of taxes would
not help the small cotton grower or

1t will be impossible for the leg

the fun he had had.

''To those of the faculty who hac
survived the years, it was indeed a
pleasure to meet old student friend
again, to feel the warm hand clasp
to hear the hearty greeting and tn
good wishes of those who in the
postgraduate college of the world
have gained a perspective and al
appreciation that the boy who is YET
student can not know.
"The homecoming has been
great thing for the college, for II
has again turned to itself the
thoughts of its children. Those
who could not come have had theil
minds turned to their college in af'
fectionate remembrance, and those
who came went away fired with g
pride and loyalty that must heal
fruit in the interest of Clemson col
lege for years to come.
1t is the purpose of the college
just as soon as possible to send out
to all who attended and all other
e.::-students whose addresses can be
obtained, souvenir pamphlet CIV
ing an account of the home COM
ing The pamphlet will be illus
trated with pictures of the college
buildings and grounds.
"One great purpose of the home
coming is to organize the eX-stu'
dents, who number over 5000 men,
into a great association to further
the purposes and interests Of the
institution. A special mailing list
will be industriously worked ur
with the help of those whose ad
dresses we now have. TO this spe
cial list of names will be sent pub
lications of the collage, and special
information from time to time.
Through this ,venue, it is hoped
to give information as to the plans
and purposes. of the college; and
when necessary the old students
will be called to arms to fight its
battles-not political battles, bu'

1T is hoped to make the home

Clemson Event Great Success
PRESIDENT RIGGS TALKS OF HOME
COMING

Upon request President Rigg:
gave the following interview con
cerning the recent 'home-coming:"
THE first homecoming OF eX'
Clemson students held at the col
lege, August u, to 81, was prob
ably the largest gathering OF col
)eee men ever held in the South
-Four hundred AMI ffty-eight old
students were enrolled and given
accommodations in the barracks.
Quite numha.. came by automo-
bile for a day only and are not IN,
,cluded in the above figure. The
total attendance was probably about
525.
''Two or three times that number
TMouA haye attended but for the
ananciai Gpression brought about
by the. European war and the CON
seouent low price of cotton. Nine
hundred and tifty-two had signltled
luGlI " SNtiAS-
THE most remarkable and graft
fyinc feature was the large atten'
dance of men belonging to the ear,
liest wears Of the colleges history.
The first graduating class was IN
1896 and numbered 81 men. Oh
this number, l3 attended the home
coming. Five members of Glen
sons first football eleven had a pie
ture taken together.
Dividing the 30 sessions repre-
sented into four eras, the attendance
was as follows: 1893 to 1898, In
elusive, los; 1897 to 1908, inclusive
81; 1902 to 1908, inclusive, lO4;
1907 to 1913, inclusive, l55.
''What the crowd lacked in size
it made up in representative quality
Cotton mill presidents, State Off
cials, physicians, successful farmers
distinguished inventors and ehgi
neers and a few preachers Were
among the 'home-comers. Some
bald heads and many silver"d TEN
pies showed the passage of 20 year:
o. the heads OF many of the old
e. ex-cadets.
Every effort was made to have
the homecoming informal. There
were no long speeches or forma
gatherings. Everything po>>ibl,
was done to remind the boys o
their college days and to Tak'
them feel at home. Many were M
expressions of surprise and satistac
,ion at the growth and magnitude
of the college and the great scope
of its present work reaching t
every quarter Of the State. untl
this return, the college was to th'
older men a memory Of four man

Prohibition Does Prohibit In
Tennessee.

Ha! ha! ha! ha! Who says that
"Prohibition don't prohibit" II
storm-tossed Tennessee? He's an
other!
John R. Cooper, OF h erw sc
known as Bunk" the noted crimi
! nal lawer who recently campaigned
Georgia for the United States Sen
ate. much to the entertainment OF
the aforesaid state, declared that he
was running because he wanted
to''-,hat he did not run because he
had many kilograms and letters
piled up on his desk asking him to
make the race" and that the fel'
low who does say that he is run
ming for this reason is liar and
the truth amt in him"
We can think of nothing else
that so befttingly fits the li1uorized
braggart who says prohibition does
no good as the red-headed declara-
ton of Bunk" Cooper-"he is a
liar and the truth aint in him"
Tennessee's capital, so long de-
fiant of that states prohibition law,
furnishes now a glorious illustra-
ton of the victory that comes 10
those who fiuht for the enforcement
of a righteous law-and keep on
fighting. If prohibition does not
wholly prohibit, as Sam Small says
about the boy trying to stop the
yearling, it lows the thing up a
little big little, thanks to the
Lord and Governor Hooper. Here
is the thrilling proof from The
Nashville Banner:
Six huge dray loads of assorted
liquors were poured into the Cum
berland River this morning By the
receivers in the nuisance cases, act
ing under the direction of Aust "
McGugin, special attorneys for the
state, employed by Governor Hoop
er to prosecute the cases.
The liquor poured out ranged
in quality all the way from mean
'bust,head" whisky and plain do
mestic beer up to absinthe and fine
brandies and corlials. There were
more than sixty barrels of bottled
beer. several barrels of whisky and
eirht cases OF absinthe, besides
smaller quantities of other liquors.
1t was valued at several thousand
dollars.
The outpouring began shortly
before noon. The liquors, which
filled four stolage rooms in the
First National Bank Building, were
hauled to the wharf and there t he
barrels were opened up, the bottles
OPENED and the liquor allowed to
run ont into the river. Although a
score Of willing hands were busy
opening the bottles, it required the
greater part of the afternoon to
complete the job of opening the
huge stock. The bottles were gath
cred up and placed back in the
barrels, to be sold to the junk
men to help meet the expenses Of
J the cases.

DIED AT LOS ANGELES.
Friends Surprised by Tidings of Sud-
 den Death of Henry F. Clark.

A telegram received here Saturday morning by George B. Ferguson of Reynolds street announced the sud- den death in Los Angeles on Friday ot Henry F. Clark of Danielson. The news of MT Clark's death came as surprise to friends here. as only a few days ago cards received from him indi- cated that he was enjoying the winter in California. Mir Clark left here for Los Angeles October to spend the winter with relatives in the coast city, as has been his custom for the past few years. He was not in the best of health when he left Danielson, but he had been in about the same condition for two or three years, so there seem ed no particular cause for alarm over the fact NIT. Clark suffered frequently from attacks of acute indigestion, and one of these may have caused his death. though the facts were not giv ell in the telegram.
 Mr. Clark was 13 years of age and was born in Providence He was @ veteran of the civil war and afterwards for many years a railroad conductor in charge of passenger trains running between Providence and Wnlimantic. For a number of years he lived in the town of Plainfield. where he has rela- tives, but after retiring from the rail- road service he made his home Tn Dan ielsOn. For a time after coming here Mir. Clark was employed in the Shum- way clothing store. He retired from active work a number of years ago.
 MT. Clark was a member of Moriah lodge, No. 15, A. F. and A. NJ, and oth- CT Masonic organizations in Danielson. The telegram telling of his death was despatched by George P. Clark. his brother, with whom he was staying.
