The Willow Grove authorizes have arrang

the two days races.
Many inquiries have reached Headquarters
concerning the route from the Quaker Civ

it has been thought advisable to give some &C,

in view of the fact that the festivities in

lane, where, turning left and passing Bell
Mawr and Lawnsde railroad stations. the
rider reaches the White Horse pike, six miles
from the starting point at the Gloucester ferry
house. Turn to the right here. Greenland

There is a sameness about it which makes

The University.

A rumor has been persistently
circulated to the effect that Rev. DR.
Davidson, of Canton, Ohio, superin.
tendent of the Summer Chatauqua
has been rendered the presidency Of
the State university. The News is
able to deny this rumor on authori-
ty. If ministerial candidate should
be selected for the presidency, it is
probable that DIR. Davidson is as
good a man as can be chosen He
is an eminent scholar, and pleas.
ing speaker who would represent
the interests of the university with
credit. The News, however, is in
clined to hope that the board will
not select minister for the presi-
dency of the university.
There are a number of reasons
why the executive of such an insti-
tuition should be layman just as
!. minister is popular with his own
church, and in the same measure as
his own denomination rallies around
him, will other denomination be re
PEELED, even if there is no tendency
to denominationalism in the univer-
sity at all. The new head of the
university should be some person
eminent as teacher, not as preach
er. 1t is possible to find plenty of
such men, and the board will make
serious mistake if it does not
make the necessary effort. Whecl
