One corner, which was railed off for a postoffice, glowed conspicuousiy with its strings and rings and multitude of red, red hearts. The postmistress, Miss Myers, also radiating light from her adornment of hearts, was so over-bur- dened with her duties that Dr. Peterson and Miss McAlpine, the matron, were pressed into service as assistants.
 Everybody had, not a valentine, but many valentines There were little hearts, tiny white ones, and all colors' written close with loves message; then biz hearts, suspended from a ribbon, that placed around the neck, hung the heart as a shield over the breast; and long chains of hearts that must be worn either as necklace or girdle. All these, regard
  love, if the sentiments and pictures grav- en on them were to be trusted.
 The designs of most of the valentineS were original, many of them by the pupils of the Art Department; the work all showed excellent taste and talent. There were many local hits. always lovingly given, that added much fun and jollity to the evening.
 A Committee composed of Misses Fitts and wardlaw and pr. Peterson, was ask ed to decide on the most beautiful and the funniest valentine. Their task was no easy. A full half-dozen valentines werC first selected as the very prettiest ones, From this number, finally, lovely white and gold heart, which belonged to Miss Harwen of the English Department, wa' taken as representing the most beautiful design. The maker of this valentine wa: then called for; Miss Melissa Howell came forward and was presented with a dainty stfck-pin, a gold heart set with pearls The funniest valentine was at lengtl discovered, and Miss Annie Dee Sampe! received the prize for this, heart book mark.
 The evening passed too quickly. Man! amusements which the young ladies haC planned had to be left out because tn, hour was too late for them.
