are expected to be more than 100
quill drivers here as letters have
been received from that many sta
ting that they will be here.
The program for the morning was
not followed very closely owing to
the fact that several who were on
the program had not yet arrived.
The chapel exercises at the Univer-
sity by special order were made the
opening exercises Of the Associa-
ton. The University orchestra gave
very pleasing selection and Doctor
Cameron offered prayer After the
students were dismissed the Presi
dent called the meeting to order and
in few words introduced Mayor
Glasscock who gave the freedom of
the city to the visitors and turned
over the key of the Municipality to
the editors The address was short
and TO the point and received consid-
cradle applause
Following this Prof. S. b. Brown
told the meeting what was in store
for them during their stay here and
called their attention to the things
which we wished them to notice
about our city,
President Brown replied to these
addresses in happy speech and
during it took occasion to say a
number of very nice things about
the growth of Morgantown in the
last few years. He said that no town
in the state had grown in every de-
sirable way as this place had. He
thanked the Mayor for his words of
welcome and on behalf of the mem
bers accepted the proffered hospital
ity. He also extended the thanks
of the editors to the Chairman of the
local committee, Prof Brown for his
efforts and for the splendid program
which had been prepared.
The roll was then called and few
routine matters taken up and re-
cess was then taken until this after
noon when the association is still in
session as we go to press.
