LITERARY SOCIETIES WORK

On Friday afternoon the commencement at the Birmingham seminary opened with a concert by tho Intermediate grades of the music department, and notwithstand- ing the very indictment weather a splendid audience gathered to hear the young folks. Each number was so well given that it was impossible to criticize individ- ually. This was followed by the concert by the junior music class, the entire programme being remarkably well rem dered. The pupils gave evidence of real talent, and all showed the results of care ful training.
 These two entertainments mark the be- ginning of a very interesting week at the seminary. Bishop Morrison will preach the baccalaureate sermon at the First Methodist church this morning at | o'clock. Music will be furnished by a choir of seminary girls.
 Monday evening the primary depart ment will give a play that promises to be an unusually enjoyable glimpse into fairyland. In addition to this will be the Art Leyee. Friends of the art pupils will be glad to know that the art rooms will be open to visitors Monday afternoon from to 6, and from to lo:3o in the evening.
