Shepherd College on last Friday even.
ing. Before eight o'clock hundred
guests had assembled, including, in
addition to the majority of the stu
dent body, all resident school officials.
The old hall, with its generous adorn-
ment of cardinal and orange, present
ed an appearance quite in keeping
with the spirit of the occasion; So
rapidly and pleasantly did the hours
fly that little in the way of formal
program was presented. A reading
By Mr.. R. P. McGarry, "How Ruby
Played" and one selection each from
Glee and Mandolin Clubs, were listened
to with attention and appreciation.
Several crokinole boards on the stage
also received a share of attention dur
ing a part of the evening, but in the
main the pleasure of the occasion
seemed to lie in meeting and talking
with as many friends as possible, both
old and new.
At half-past nine refreshments were
served, and after the material features
of the menu had been fully discussed,

fair to behold, and friends Of the

realization.

pleasure, one long to be remembered,
one in which every friend Of the school
cannot fail to see both the means and
the evidence of that very important

cost 800, 0OO.-Efehange.

in building a respectable station at

interminable spell of wet and gloomy
weather ended last Thursday night,

masses Of bloom. If profusion of
fruit blossoms means anything there
will b. an abundance Of every sort OF
fruit this year. 1t is sweet to be in
the country when nature is shown &
her beauties az she reveals them just
now.
