new the ties that bind themto their Alma Mater Each yearthe campus grows more beauti-ful and the ivy clambers withincreasing foliage toward theparapets of Kauke Hall So thatwhen Nature smiles and ourWooster in all her exquisite ver-

dure responds the hearts of allare touched with a more stead-fast loyalty to the Black andGold

It was the first visit for somefor others it was a pleasant re-

ated in honor of the unusuallylarge class which filled the spaci-

ous choir loftMr Nees opened the exercises

with an excellently rendered pro-

cessional to which the graduatesmarch down the aisle and tooktheir places in the seats to therear of the desk The invocationwas then given by the Rev MrTait our new pastor

The salutatory was given byMr Charles Z T Ing of Shang-hai China Mr Ing is to becongratulated on his excellent

each of the orations Thespeakers were privileged in hav-

ing an unusually large numberof friends and relatives present

Following the Commencementexercises came the CorporationLunch This is an annual insti-

tution conducted by UncleGeorge Swartz and is an excel-

lent relaxation from the dutiesof tho morning Most of thepeople were served in the KaukeHall dining- room and the restwere taken care of in the Gym J

nasium Many of the downtownbusiness men were present aswell as those directly connectedwith the University thus addingto the good- fellowship of the oc-

casion The hearty lunch waswell and quickly served by someof the students and was enjoyedby all in a very practical way

This closed another great Com-

mencement Week Everyonehad his fill of ball- games con-

certs plays and reunions andleft with the resolve to sharein more of such times in the fu

address which was markedthroughout by excellence ofcomposition and thought Al-

though Mr Ing is of foreignbirth his mastery of English isquite remarkable

The address to the class wasmade by the Rev Mr Shellen-berger of the Christian churchand contained many useful andoriginal thoughts delivered in aforceful and impressive manner

Mr Arthur Compton as vale-

dictorian gave a very carefullyprepared and interesting addressHis thoughts were well mar-

shalled and presented clearly andforcibly

Prof W E Wenner the as-

sistant principal bestowed thediplomas The only sad featureof the occasion was the factthat Prof Wenner is leaving

JUNIOR ORATORICALCONTEST

Those who attended the JuniorOratorical Contest on Saturdayevening were fortunate in hear-ing one of the most interestingoratorical events of the year Afair sized audience was presentat Taylor Auditorium to hear thefour orations of the evening allof which were of high qualityand showed careful preparation

After prayer by the Rev SW Douglas the contest wasopened by Mr B P Smith hav-ing as his subject A WastedHeritage His oration dealtwith the disastrous results ofsoil erosion in our country MrSmith showed great earnestnessin delivery and careful arrange-ment of his material

L H Seelye was the secondspeaker with the subject

Statesmanship vs BattleshipMr Seelyes presentation of thissubject was up to the standardwhich he has maintained on oth-

er occasions His appearance onthe floor was probably the bestof the evening while his deliv-ery was marked by clearness andforce

The Call of the TwentiethCentury was the title of thethird oration by R S DouglasThis oration dealt with the evilswhich undermined the ancientempires and the danger of thesesame evils appearing in our ownpublic life Although the orationwas the longest of the eveningMr Douglas held the close atten-tion of his audience from first tolast His material and deliverywere both excellent

Miss Alma Dodds the last

The plot of the drama centersaround the attempt of the Gulfand Midland R R to secure theright of way through a bayou onthe Alabama plantation of Colon-ei Preston Colonel Preston hasa fine prejudice against the northand refuses to let this project ofnorthern capitalists have rightof way from him His prettySouthern granddaughter Careyfalls in love with Mr Armstrongone of the railways promotersCaptain Davenport Armstrongssuperior appears on the scene-and is discovered to be the sup-

posedly dead son of Colonel Pres-

hayseed Colonel Moberly adashing widower Mrs Page andMrs Stockton two widows to-

gether with a few other charac-ters aid materially in bringing incomplications to the plot

The honor of the evening werecarried off by W II Hoover asSquire Tucker and A L Palmerwho represented Col MoberlyMr Hoover had a fine chance toexhibit the motions he has beenpracticing for the last twentyyears and they were very appro-priate His whole appearancewas typical of his character even

SENIOR FAREWELL

On last Thursday evening theSeniors gave their annnal fare-well to the Juniors The pro-gram was varied somewhat fromwhat it has been in formeryears The two classes met to-

gether with a few invitedfriends on the quadrangle atseven oclock After a few ap-

propriate remarks by A L Pal-mer 09 Mr W H Hooverswill of the senior class was readby G F Browne By this num-erous valuables and other thingsof not so much value were be-

queathed to the Juniors MrHoovers article abounded in witand humor throughout

Mr Byron Smith whowon such distinction as an oratoron Color day spoke in behalf ofthe Juniors In a few but fittingwords he expressed his farewellto the Seniors The Seniors thenhanded over their caps andgowns to the class of 1910 whowill be guardians of the rags forthe coming year

The crowd then adjourned tothe basement of Kauke Hallwhere punch and ice cream coneswere served

dress was given last Sundayevening in the First church by

the Rev Mr Housten 98 Histheme Indirect Routes wassomewhat out of the ordinaryand some very original thoughtswere expressed

The talk was based on Phil-

314 and the idea emphasizedwas that one should press to-

ward the mark and not go bythe shortest route to the prizeitself The speaker applied thisprinciple to the attainment ofhappiness heaven and successshowing that all these viewed asprizes are obtained not directlybut come to us as results of oarpursuing the indirect route by

pressing toward the markWith this helpful address the
