PENN FRESHMEN.
Annual Exhibition by the Lower Coli
Iege Glass.

The Freshmen exhibition at Penn
College yesterday evening was among
the most interesting entertainments
given at the college this year.
The chapel was decorated In the
colors of the Freshmen and broad
streamers of rose and blue made a
very pretty effect. The crowd was
large and the chapel was filed almost
as soon as the doors were opened.
Chairs were put in the aisles and
some were unable to find seats at all.
The program was under the direc-
ton OF Prof. Lewis and was taken
from the work done by the Freshman
rhetoric class this term. Schmitt's
orchestra was present and furnished
music during the evening. The pro-
gram was as follows:

Tableau.
The program went off without q
break and every number was inter-
esting. The performers have been
practicing for several weeks and the
excellent result of their effort was
seen yesterday evening. The closing
tableau was in the form of "roast"
on the other classes and showed the
queen of the Freshmen standing on
her thrown with her guards on either
side. Before her knelt the other
classes in characteristic garb, while
President Rosenberger was repre-
sented as Just entering the room to
pay his respects to the "class OF
clas $685." Altogether it was the best
Freshmen entertainment ever given
at the college and the students may
we'll feel proud of the efforts.

GRADUATION EXERCISES.
BeacOn's High school Graduates Were
Greeted by a Large Audience.

The close of another successful
school year at Beacon was signalized
by the splendid exercises attending
the graduation of elk "sweet girl
graduates" Friday evening at the
Congregational church.
Long before the appointed time of
opening, those anxious to secure seats
had thronged into the little church.
Later arrivals were forced to content
themselves by standing or were turn
ed away. 1t was an appreciative au-
dience present to do honor toBeacon's
class of '02, and to show it's apprecia-
ton by manifest approval of the ef-
forts of each member of the class.
Beautiful bouquets of peonas greeted
the observant eye and the sweet per.
fume of Springtime's roses filtered
through the air. Strains of sweet
music by Beckman's orchestra in the
opening overture quieted the audi
ence and to the march time Of the
second selection the class Of '03 en-
tered the stage followed by the gradu-
ates who were seated in a semi-circle
on the stage. For lack Of knowledge
of the dressmakers' art but not for
lack Of an appreciative eye the cor
respondent deigns to leave unsaid
what might be written in description
of the beautiful appearance of the
six young graduates.
The first Grafton Liberty and An
archy"by Gladys Luscombe, was we'll
composed and delivered. She drew
dark picture of the condition such
as anarchy would bring and con-
trasted it with the beautiful picture
OF civilization when liberty is cur
tailed by law so that it is not mis-
taken for license.
"a Year in the Twentieth Century"
by Annie Theresa Hort, was an in
teresting review of the past year
The speaker made mention in a
pleasing manner of all the more i'm
portant events of the notable twelve
months just past.
Nell M. Curry found much that was
interesting in the eubject Common
Schools" and said it in e pleasing
manner. She told Of the growth of
educational facilities especially to
children of poor parentage,
Annye Allen delivered beautiful
Grafton on the subje "Cheerfulness"
and sdmonished her hearers to a.
ways look on the bright side of life
and always entertain a cheerful de-
meanor.
"Heroism" was the subject of the
Grafton delivered by Beatrice Berdin-
ner. She saw a great need for more
true heroism in the world-thst kind
of heroism which makes men and
women follow the paths of truth and
righteousness.
The last Grafton was delivered by
Ola Wilson. Her subject patriot
ism" was handled in a sweet though
mastery manner. Patriotism" she
declared, sis the common est yet
greatest quality of our race"
After few choice thoughts spoken
in elegant lingue, Prof. McMurray
presented the graduates with their
diplomas, after which Rev. John
Davis delivered short address to
the class. Congratulations, profuse
and heartfelt were then offered the
graduates by the many who thronged
to the platform to grasp each of them
by the hand.

PASSING OF GIVIN.
Town Is Almost Depopnlated by Force
OF Circumstances.

A HERALD representative spent
several hours Wednesday in and near
the little town of Givin. Apparently
there will be little else at that point
than the post Office and depot In the
near future. The miners who have
made Givin their home were thrown
out Of employment several months
ago and necessarily had to seek new
locations. Many of the buildings have
been moved out of town. Some of
them to farms near by and others to
neighboring towns. The hotel and
drug store have been moved along
with other buildings. An obliging
lady who lives in little cottage Just
west OF the Depot entertains hungry
sojourners to the little town at meal
time.
A number of Givin's male popula-
ton had until recsntlybeen employed
at the Klondike coal bank, but lately
a company of twelve men leased the
bank and are doing all the work them
selves, thus leaving the former EN-.
ployees idle. What few miners are
left in the little town are looking
anxiously ahead to the expected OPEN
ing Of mines at Pekay.
Farmers in the neighborhood OF
Givin are very enthusiastic over the
crop outlook. All kinds OF vegeta.
ton are growing luxuriantly clothing
nature In her most verdant costume.

The Rosstte the Latest

The coachman's rosette is the lat
est. and to see a woman wearing a hat
with it on it is to know that she knows
the newest happening in the millinery
world. Some people call them the CO.
lonial rosette. but they are big, wheel
like things, and are copied after the
ooaohman's rosette. A hat in one of
the shops illustrates the most approved
fashion of using these rosettes. II was
of the popular pompadour shape, of
black crinoline interviewer with mar
row white satin straw. The brim was
faced underneath with black velvet
laid in many narrow folds. In front
little to the left side was placed a
wheel-like rosette made OF white
French ribbon ruffied around a fiat
button-like centre of black velvet
On the side of the upturned brim al
the left and toward the back was
placed a similar rosette partially rest
ing against the hair. Draped around
the crown was the soft white satin rib
bon which was fastened down where
it terminated at the back with a fla
velvet button, like those in the centre
of the rosettes.

How to Look Slim

The woman with too much figure is
to be pitied this season. What can
she do to be saved? Well. there
are various possibilities. The first
thing that suggests itself is the new
corset that laces the abdomen perfect
w fiat and sends a two hundred pound
figure elsewhere. If this is too severe
then there are the usual resources for
slim effects-using DR.. Banting's meth
.ors meanwhile.
1t is only the indolent woman who
is too fat nowadays. and the mOdistes
have come TO dread her. for not only
is she impossible to fit, but she objects
to standing and positively will not
Walk upstairs She drinks a deal Of
water puffs and makes herself red in
the face, telling you how little she
eats Now. fat is made Of food and not
of air. and if the fat woman were put
on the diet of her slim neighhor for a
month her flesh would melt away.
This is part Of a sermon on dress
this talk of reduction methods. for
without a good shape nothing looks
we'll. Try to dress up something that
IS deformed and you will get the idea.
Until stomachs come in style and a.
inoh busts are admired. then something
must be done by the women who own
them. for they are not in style now.

Regarding Ieils

In spite of the edict which went
forth some years ago to the effect that
wells are injurious to the eyes, these
aids to deception are more popular
this season than ever.
II doesn't necessarily follow that the
oculist-it is said to have been a fol-
lower of that professionalism discoy-
cred ana was so rash as to make
known the injurious effects of these
flmy articles was q poor business
man. The more natural conclusion is
that he was well acquainted with the
peculiarities of femininity and knew
that where a means OF improving it's
appearance is concerned it is utterly
reckless as to after results.
Another objection was raised-this
time by a wOman-tO the effect that,
by gathering dust, which is absorbed
by the skin. the wearer of a veil runs
great risks as to her complexion. This,
however. no more visibly lessened the
number of wearers than did the opin-
ion of the learned Oculist
Why shouldn't women wear wells?
In the first place. it is a privilege ex-
clusively hers, and upon which man
may not infringe. as he did upon the
shirt waist last summer.
When judgment is displayed IN their
selection, they beautify in a manner
quite remarkable. but when worn with
an utter disregard for coloring, cos
tune, etc, they produce results quite
as astonishing. but, alasl in quite the
opposite direction.
Every well-drcssed woman of today
has her assortment OF veils that of
Mrs. Bangtry the embodiment of good
taste, it Is said to be one Of her hobbies.
Great care is taken to keep them in
perfect condition. each one having it's
own particular piece Of cardboard.

What. except a veil, will keep the

face so effectually. demands the Balti-

ton and on a cold day one will add

A brunette with a fresh color can
wear a veil in which the dots are
large and comparatively close, while
black one of fine mesh and very small

and a clear skin. a veil several shades
lighter than the hair Is most effective,
but take the advice Of experience and
never be guilty Of wearing a gray one.
The veil is an institution for which
woman should be deeply grateful, and,
