The following new members,
composing the graduating class Of

ISOLATION before going into the
transaction of business: & L. Sci.
vidge, w. A. Majors, J. G. Pyle,
G. w. Harris, w. f Magee, D. G.
Warren, p. M. Netf.
The first item of business taken up
was the appointment Of commit
tee to provide for a semi.centennial
celebration for Baylor University,
to be held next year.
The association then went into
the election of officers, resulting in
the election of Hon. o. l.. Latti-
more, of Fort Worth, president;
Rev. Fl. G. Gleiss, of Houston,
first vice president; Rev. j. M
Carroll, of Waco, second vice pres
iden,; Mr.. p. M. Nef, Of Nc

X. A. Burleson, Of Waco, RECORD
ing secretary; Miss Emma Culbtrt-
son, of Waco, corresponding secre-
tary; Miss Ada Park, of Waco,
treasurer
The newly elected president
took the chair and called for fur.
ther business.
Dr. Burleson then read the fol
lowing telegram from Governor
Jas. ). Hogg: 81 regret deeply
that it is impossible to attend com
mencement. Duties at home make
it impossible" DIR. Burleson
stated that Governor Hogg intend.
ed TO be present at the graduation
exercises and at the alumni meet
ing this afternoon. He said fur
Their that John Hogg, a brother Of
James, at one time attended Baylor
University and made an effort to
place his brother in school also but
was unable from poverty.
The adoption Of the constitution
and bylaws was next considered
and that presented by Rev. IL. G.

article and finally adopted as a
whole. Very little amending was
done.
By motion a committee of three
was appointed to arrange a pro
gramme for the next meeting
On motion the association ad-
journed till $3.50 p. M.
The necessity for the adoption of
a new constitution and bylaws was
occasioned by the destruction by
fire of the original.
