FOR A CNIVEHSITV CHARTER. South Carolina College Makes Appli cation to the liCRtslntiiie An Kxtra Appropriation of $10,000 is AIho Re oueateil. Observer Bureau. 1209 Main street. Columbia. K. C, Dec. 21. ! After an all-d;iy session the board ; of trustees of tho South Carolina Col- j logo to-nlsht adapted a resolution to i apply to the Legislature for a unlVer- slty charter; but It was distinctly de-! clared as a part of tho resolution that 1 the university Is to b a substantial advance toward a real university and Is not to be in name only. In con nection with the application for the charter is a request that the Legisla ture appropriate $10,000 over and above the regular-appropriation to be used In enlarging the work of the in stitution. It Is proposed that the chairs of geology and biology, now united and filled by Prof. A. C. Moore, be seperated a-nd a new professor be elected to fill the chair of geology; that an additional professor be added in the department of pedagogy, and an assistant in mathematics and an assistant In chemistry. It is further proposed that a department of phar macy and first-class commercial de partment be added, the latter to include stenography. book-keeping and a general business course. Con siderable additions will need to be made the first year in equipment of several of th? departments of the I Institution upon the enlarged scale.

The balls and parlors were beautifully dec orated with the society colors, light green and white, the color scheme be Ins charmingly carried out in festoons of wild smilax and ferns on white back ground while everywhere were the Zetesian pennants. The color scheme was carried out in the costumes ot the young- hostesses. '.' - " At 10 o'clock the guests were usher ed Into the dining room. The table, which was in the shape of a Z, was wreathed In Ivy, the society emblem, caught up at the corners with bunches ot white roses, While down the center were large Zs made of fern leaves. Toasts were called for. Mrs. F. L. Pearsoll as toast-mastress, welcomed the guests In her usual charming, easy manner. In the absence of the society president, Miss Fronriss, Miss Annspaugh, of the college faculty gave I a toast to the hostess of the evening, responded to by Miss Beatrice Mc- Eachern In a toast to "our guests."

BLOCK SYSTEM ON SOUTHERN, Hns Boon Completed as I'ar South an the Southern End of the Dan ville Division. Danville Bee. In line with the policy of the pres ent management of the Southern Rail way, the block telegraph system has Just been extended as far South as Spencer, N. C, the southern end of the Danville division. This makes the trav el on the portion of the system from Washington to Spencer, a distance of 334 miles much safer. For a consider able time this system was In use as far South as Lynchburg, and the exten sion Indicated has been the means of giving 43 additional men employment. The extended service Is costing the system something over $2,000 a month. Superintendent Coapman, of the Danville division, whose division has Just been treated so well by the man agement, gives out the Information that the company has authorised the extension of the service over the en tire system between Spencer and At lanta, Ga., thus making a continuous piece of road of 648 miles under, the block system. The telegraph officers are located three niM a half fjlles. apart on the average between Washington and Spencer, but while it is not known. It Is hardly expected the offices will be quite so close south ot Spencer as they are in this section. Mr. Coapmaiv showed that the spreading out of the block service of the system means that the Southern already hts more miles pf track being operated under the manual block' sys tem than any other railroad in the country. The. Improvement will cost the Southern many thousands of dollars annually, but it will greatly facilitate the movement of trains and Insure a greater degree of safety to the passage of trains that could not be secured In any other way. A. & M. COLLEGE NOTES. The Fall Term Ends The December Number of Red and White Espe cially Attractive College News. Special to The Observer. West Raleigh. Dec. 22. The fall term ended yesterday with the last exami nation, and by this time most of the bo'R are at home fnr the hnliHnv. Term examinations with us are not i as Important as one term examlna- j tlons In the classical colleges. Here j the standing of the student depends more unnn the nnalltv anil Intain,,.. : of his work than upon his ability to repeat text-book passages. For in stance, If he Is learning textile de sign, his understanding of the princi ples of the art Is Indicated largely by his originality. In architectural and mechanical drawing the standing of the student depends wholly upon the dally work of the term, neglect of the latter means failure. In the shops and the laboratories It Is required that notes books shall be kept, with sketches of methods and appliances, and these are Fuomuiea, wun samples or work, at the end of the term, for grade and ap proval. Every student learns In his first year to sketch clearly and neatly, and every department of advanced work calls for the use of this art. The T. M. C. A. was addressed last Sunday by State Treasurer Lacy, who talked very Interestingly of a recent trip through the southwest, and drew a moral from the evidences which still remain of the cliff-dwellers, while the dwellers In the plains have left no work upon the world I have noticed with pleasure Mr. Poe's description, in the November Re view of Reviews, of North Carolina's ambitions and accomplishments In In dustrial education.
