Exercises by Paramount Sen
iors Was College Life.
CLASS CONSISTS OF NINE
Best Entertainment of the
Kind in History of College.

The third in the series of commence
ment events at Paramount college, class
day, was a great success and decidedly
entertaining. Never in the history of the
college was an entertainment received
With more attention and more hearty ap-
rlause.
For weeks the class under the direction
Of Prof. Spindler, worked and elaborated
the program which they SO successfully
presented last night. The upstairs chapel
was crowded to its utmost capacity.
Tonight at the college chapel will occur
the seventh ANIMAL commencement exer-
cjses Of the academic department The
college commencement will take place at
Plymouth church, Friday morning.
The class day OF the class of 1900, Fair
mount college, has passed into history
and tradition. Although the class day
was held in the evening, yet the program
and events had all the pIeasantness and
uniqueness that characterized class days
in older colleges. Such days as these
are what build up college traditions and
the host of charming memories that form
most attractive part of the recollections
of college days in the mind of the Oldest
grad" Last night in the Fairmount
Chapel the members Of the class Of 1900
entertained themselves and their many
friends by a most amusing and pleasing
program. 1t was not exactly along the
lines OF the old fashioned New England
college class day exercises, but was per
haps more enjoyable and characteristic Of
independent and breezy Kansas than a
morer stolid and conventional program
would have been.
The class being composed of nine yong
women and one young man, the fun had
TO be that of wit and kindly "takes-offs"
rather than the more farcaical and boist-
erous iund possible to a class of young
men, for college girls do not seem to care
to make fools of themselves in public,
except in very refined and delicate way
The whole production was worked up
for the occasion, and showed a great deal
OF pains and labor; how much no one can
realize who has not engaged in such an
entertainment
