NEW LITERARY SOCIETY.
Organized at Carlisle School.-Bi-
monthly Magazine.

school nave Deen ones OF unusual Ill
terest and activity. In addition to
winding up the first months work
and the regular tests which go with
it, there have been at least three
things which mark the growth and
progress of the school.
1t was found that the kilgo Liter
ary society, for boys, was too crowd
ed for the best work and steps were
taken looking towards new socie-
ty. This new society was organized
two weeks ago and named the Beach
Literary society, in honor of Mrs. Jo-
sephine Beach, who has been con-
nected with the school for the past
fifteen years, and who has endeared
herself to every boy who has attend
ed Carlisle in that time. 1t is very
fitting that this new society should
bear her name. The organization is
as follows: President, F. w. Fairey,
Jr., Orangeburg county; vice presi-
dent, A. T. Whetsell, Orangeburg
county; secretary, Paul Madden, An
derson county; first critic, Morgan
Sauls, Clarendon county; treasurer,
w. C. Farnum, Orangeburg county;
second critic, Dewey Mum, Florence
county; first censor mOrum, Vance
Hough, Kershaw county; second CEN
sor morum, Norwood Crawford,
Berkeley county; monthly orator,
Anton Thicker, Georgetown county.
Another distinct advance move
ment was the determination on the
part of the literary societies to pub
lish a school magazine. The students
have taken hold of the proposition
with enthusiasm and the work is
progressing nicely. 1t was decided
to publish an issue every two months
this year with the hope of making it
a monthly another year. The editors
of the magazine are as follows: Edi-
tor-in-chief, Oita Burns, Orangeburg
county; assistant editor-in-chief, Irby
Gunter, Aiken county; business man
ager, Eugene Moore, Florence
county; assistant business man
ager, Arthur Whetsell, Orangeburg
county; literary editor, Willis Owens,
Aiken county; assistant literary edi-
tor, Miss Jessie Risher, Colleton
county; local editor, Angus Riley,
Barnwell county; athletic editor,
James Skinner, Berkeley county; ex-
change editor, Miss Ollie Mae Gull
clasure, Calhoun county; Young Peo-
ple's Christian association editor,
Miss Ottie HERS, Hampton county.
The c. F. Rizer gymnasium was
completed last week. This unique
building, in addition to filing long
felt want in the physical develop
ment of the student life is distinct
addition to the beauty and attractive
ness of the campus. The gymnasium
is built on original lines and has all
the advantages of open air exercise,
furnishing at the same time privacy
to the exerciser and ample weather
protection. The roof is supported 5y
massive brick piers and these piers
are connected by a BRICK wall, which
runs up about seven and a half feet.
The space from the top OF the wall
to the roof is open. The front en-
trance is particularly attractive--a

rear of the building. Equipment is
now being installed and regular work

This splendid addition to Carlisles
equipment was made possible by the
generosity of Mr.. C. F. Rizer, of Olar.
