The exercises proper looking to COM
mencement began last Sunday with the
baccalaureate sermon by that distin-
guished Presbyterian minister, the Rev.
DR.. John f. Cannon, of Grand Avenue
church, st. Louis, Mo. The music on this
occasion was very fine. Alter songs by the
quartette, Misses Graham and Ryland n
Messrs. Walton and Gunlack, a solo by
Miss Graham, and a prayer service led by
Rev. A. II. Faris and Rev. H.. ID. Banks,
Rev. Mr.. Moffett introduced DIR. Cannon,
who took his text from the 18th verse of
the 4th chapter of Paul's first epistle TO
Timothy.
DR.. Cannon's sermon was, indeed, ap-
prOpriate and Interested the cadets as well
as the large congregation present. The
subject was Reading" He began bv
narrating the story that when Gutenberg
was about completing the printing press
he had a dream that it would be a great
power for evil, and became so discouraged
that he came near not completing it. But
would also be "A great power for good as
well as a power for evil. lean not vouch
for the story" said the preacher, but the
latter part of it has been realized" He
said there was no instrument more poten-
tial than the printing press, in whatever
field, good or bad, it was used. The
gigantic struggle of the age is between
truth and error, yet he did moi think we
fully appreciated the struggle as it was
carried on. He traced the Influence of one
good book in a beautiful Illustration, and
showed how it had converted several of
the greatest men of the world, whose in
on humanity would never die,

Afterthe~ presentation of the diplomas
and prizes the academy quartette rem
dered that ever popular, touching and
beautiful old song, '.Massa's in the
Cold, Cold Ground" This song
always touches Il tender spot, even
when poorly sung; but given in the
artistic manner in which the quartette
gave it, with all the parts we'll sustain
ed, it is just grand. Perhaps this
music is not classical; doubtless the
language is not grammatical, but if we
wanted to get at the hearts of the
people we know of nothing WI would
select in preference to this sweet old
song, and we would get the quartette
to sing it for MS.
This concluded the exercises, and
nothing remained but Taps" to dis
miss the audience. Yes, ''taps." We
