K tern! term Of the session Of 1921-1922Iby
Il having no failures, no current works
behind, and not over twenty denerits.
4 The numberof students on the Honor

( and is as follows:

4 % sand it would have been folly for

< State Fair.
On last Saturday afternoon all the
cadets who desired to take the typhoid
vaccination were asked to rcpnrt to
the hospital for THEW first inoculation
Many of the cadets took advantage
of the opportunity to take the treat
ment but the serum gave out before
all were va%inated,, however, many
were given Che treatment and those
remaining to receive it will doubtless
s be vaccinated sometime this week.
All those who were vaccinated last
I Saturday are getting along nicely at
this time.
Educational institutions supported
by the State need to be reorganized
in number Of ways, including the
abolishment Of all engineering courses
at the University and the Citadel and
the establishment of this work at
Clemson, according to the report of
the joint Legislative committee on
be presented to the legislature with
in short time. In regard to the
work at Clemson College, the report
says: Large returns are secured
. for the money spent; the fertilizer
tax should be turned into the state
treasury and direct appropriations
>made; all engineering work at the
state institutions should be taught
at Clemson and post graduate work
+ in engineering and agriculture should
! be established; Clemson should handle
all agricultural publicity; building
program amounting to 100000 a
facilities and provide for l, 200 stu
dents is recommended"
( An extra issue of the "Chroniclc"
entitled the "Faculty Number" ap-
peared last Saturday and is indeed
worthy of mention. In it arc several
articles written by members Of the
faculty. Among these are: "Ten
years of growth at Clemson" by W.
NJ. Riggs, President; "Whv study the
Humanitles?" by d. w. Daniel, head
of Academic Department; "What is
the r. O, r. c." by Major Madison
Pearson, Commandant; "rhc How and
The Why" by f. Fl. II. Calhoun,
head of Agricultural Department; ;
: and "Alumni Interest in Student Ac-
tivities," by d. +. Folgcr, 'lG Alumni
Secretary. This issue of the Chroni-
Gle was made possible only through
the efforts Of the faculty members
and it will doubtless prove very in
tcresting and instructive to all those
who may have the opportunity of
reading the Faculty Number" of this
valuable college publication.
