CLEMSON
AT THE FAIR
College Exhibit Created Fa.
vorable Impression

college exhibits created a very ia
vorable impression among the
visitors at the State Fair in Co
lumbia. The Clemson displays were
Of dual nature-one was from
the. college proper, and was oper-
ated by the cadets; while the other
represented the various departments
of the extension service. Both ex-
hibits were well planned, and gave
a general idea as to what Glenn
son is undertaking.
The booth representing the schol-
astic9 department Of the college
was located in a very desirable po-
sitien near the front center ofsthe
steel building.
The most attractive feature of
the whole Clemson array was the
radio. A small broadcasting station
was erected at one end Of the
booth and concerts were received
and given at the far end Of the
floor. The complete radio set was
constructed at the college and the
programs were good and clearly
presented. The Textile department
was represented by machine which
tested the strength Of yarn and les
sons were given in designing and
in the dyeing Of cloth. The me-
chanical engineers operated a gas
engine that would show anything a
person wanted to know. The civil
engineers tested the strength of
cement with the machinery for
this purpose.
Some ef the boys showed how
T to make wonderful mechanical
drawings. Capt. Durfee with his
two assistants constructed a small
miniature likeness of Clemson on
the sand table. All Of the roads
and buildings were placed in their
proper places and on the proper
tcontours. Z.
The agrononly, botany and bac-
tteriolegy divisions carried on nu-
tmerous experiments just as they
fare performed by cadets in the Ia
boratories. The .1Boll Weevil and
3Bee Motion Picture attractedsvery
much attention. The horticulture
| al exhibit: showed a model farm,
fon which nothing was grown but
fruit and truck. Demonstrations
were also given in the pruning OF
grapes. The model creamery was
la great success. The cadets tested
milk by well known princiEles laid
Hdown by Dr.yBab bcock. Then they
would separate and churn it. The
chemistry division had a, very good
iexhibit, showing various tests and
]chemical processes carried out. al
the college.
| The displays extended: over q
whole side Of the length of the
lsteel building. A person passing
Through the; building could not
help becoming Impressed by Clem-
Eson and her great work.

thought the medical warnings and advice circulated
during Cancer week Nov. 1918.
Here are the important facts you should know about
this dread disease:
L Cancer usually is caused by chronic irritation.
particularly of the stomach Thirty per cent OF cancers
in men and q per cent in are in the stomach.
Cancer is not contagious 1t is not disease.
3. Cancer is not hereditary though a person may
inherit tendency" physical weakness which, not
safeguarded, may enable cancer TO develop easily.
Cancer, taken in the early stages often is durable
in the hands of medical experts. Radium is working
wonders in this line. So is surgery.
DR.. Francis Carter Wood director Of the Columbia
University Institute Of Cancer Research learned this
Between the Of Is and 49, only person In $780,
600 dies OF cancer Between 20 and "a only per-
son in 100000. Between % and "a, in 10000
and woman in 5000 dies of cancer And the
rate rises until between the ages of Go and u.s. one
in 200 and woman in $50 dies of cancer.
Thus cancer is especially dangerous in middleage
after But the irritation other cause of cancer
often starts much earlier, is immune, and all
should be their guard.
AS with other diseases, periodical physical exam
ination by a skilled physician is the best safeguard
against cancer
