!: tastefully decorated for the occasion.
AL the students, the faculty and the
members of the board were present

Ing furnished by the band. Mr.. Tjos-
void was taken by surprise and when
Z hs understood that the reception was
In his honor he said that he hoped
. everybody would have nice time and
have all the fun they could at his ex-
pense. After having spent an enjoy

the Wish that the board and the faculty

Hanson, called upon to toast on
"Athletics,'' pointed out the misap-
prehension generally in vogue that q
student wasted his time by partaking
in bodily exercises. Athletics, he
said, are necess ary, for the body must
be trained so as to cooperate with
the mind, and the aim of all educa-

mind in healthy body. Prof. JAMS

thorough business education and
showed that book. keeping, in order to
be of any value, had to be not only
theoretical, but also practical. Prof.
Omlie in a few we'll chosen words told
of the Importance of having a good
ianitor. "How fortunate we are"
he said, shat we have janitor of that
kind. 1t is true he sweeps for others
doors before he sweeps before his own,
but that shows that he Is willing to
sacrifice his own for the sake of the
good of the Seminary and the welfare
of the students. he had carried the
'warmest' interests for the students,
not only during the cold days when
coal was scarce, but also during the
hot days of May. Miss Stella Gil
gers toast on the Juniors was re-
ceived with intense applause on the
part of the Juniors present. She COM
planned of not being able to speak on
such q weighty subject as ''The Juni-
ors" but her speech showed that she
was not only able to define Juniors,
but that she also carried a warm In
terest for the welfare of the class.
Mr.. Tygeson replied with q toast on
the Seniors. He called attention to
the large class this year. "This

congratulated upon its success and
this success is due to the individual
work done and 1 hope that whatever
