among the students.
As in the morning, the music by
the choir and congregation was
greatly enjoyed and the solo by Miss
AbernathY a fit introduction to the
appropriate sermon by Rev. @. B.
Duncan, Of Richmond, Mo-, member
Of the board of curators Of the college.
Mr.. Duncan took for his text I Cor,
1922 %. and his theme was, "The
meaning, of life,-what is its highest
good9" In very prectical way he
showed that success depended very
largely upon the answer to this ques.
tion. He said that though some
think the greatest good is happiness,
others believe the best results in life
come from sitting aspirations, -and
between these extreme views many
opinions have been presented Paul
tells Of things Of real Importance that
should engage our attention. First,
to know Christ, and be found in Him,
to know all truth, both In revela-
tion,-to know the power of His
resurrection from the evil that has
touched the mental, moral and
physical man. He spoke Of the one
pledged to help 10 ali Of the strivings
for this "highest good" Of the
Divine Philosophers stone" which
transforms lives, and in concluding,
urged the young women to get the
most out Of all the experiences and
all the lessons that come to them.
With the benediction by Rev. T. M.
Cobb, the days services came to an end.

treat, we are reminded that it is not
to the air castles which dreaming
poets have pictured that our young
women may turn their thoughts
today, and to which in coming years

they may look back with fond recol.
Elections. Instead Of an imaginary
temple which people have delighted
to build, the ambitious girls have
their College, real place to which
they are bound by many tender asso-
Citations formed during the years OF
student life and to which they owe so
many OF tine definite purposes and
fixed aims which will surely tell in
these lives when devoted to new
energies.
When standing at the threshold Of
their Alma Mater, looking out into
the beyond with all the delight Of
trying the unknown, tbs fitting that
these girls take formal leave OF friends
and scenes made dear because Of all
all the memories clustering about
them.
Twas with such feelings as thes,
that the Seniors of 1905 arranged
their Glass Day Exercises, but tidlng
of sorrow reached one Of their mum
ber, so with the sympathy that make
all the world kin, they set aside th
plans made for celebrating this, thei
day.
Surely the world belongs to thos
thirteen bright girls to get all th
good out Of it they can. BY good
we mean all the knowledge, all th
: lessons, all the happiness they cal
legitimately extract from it.
! If they do this, their destiny !
