burg institution.
Spartanburg, S. c., June "A large
audience assembled Sunday morning in
the spacious chapel of the college. At Il
o'clock the students, led by the graduating
class, marched into the chapel taking the
seats in front and then the exercises be-
gan. The baCcalaureate sermon was
preached by the Rev. J. T. Plunkett, d.
D., of Augusta.
DIR, Plunkett's theme was '"The Bless
edness of Service" His remarks were
addressed mainly to the graduating class,
and were full of great thoughts most
happily expressed. He spoke of the grand
mission of woman in the home, in society,
in the church, and most forcibly impressed
upon his young auditors the greater
blessedness Of serving their day and
generation, rather than of being the petted
darlings of society.
The music was inspiring. Miss Missel-
dine presided at the organ, and was aided
by Mrs. W. A. Law upon the piano and
Mr.. Henderson upon the cornet, accom-
panied by fine chorus of young ladies,
assisted by some gentleman of the city.
The singing was led by Miss Mcintyre,
one of the vocal teachers-the sweet
singer of the college,
Tuesday evening, June 6, the chapel
was again crowded with an appreciative
audience, the occasion. being the piano
recital and competition for medals in
vocal and Instrumental music.
An interesting programme was carried
out. Among those who took part in the
exercises were Miss Lillian Hamilton and
Miss Nellie Jones of Savannah Miss
Hamilton had n part in a song entitled
April, - and Miss Jones gave a piano solo
'Rigoletto' from List.
