SHAM IT

The sham battle Thursday after
moo was not quite as spectacular a,
those Of previous years, This is to
be accounted for by the fact that the
Krag rifles are In use this year where
last year the old Springfelds were in
commission. The KraV makes little
noise and no smoke, while the Spring.
field makes plenty Of both. Conse-
quently for spectacular purposes the
older rifle is the better.
More rounds of ammunition were
used than eve before; bat the scarcity
Of smoke and noise made the effect
less imposing.
AS usual the band was organized
toto an artillery force and handled
the two guns, The guns were sta.
toned ID the field north of the water
tower. The two companies we're or
gained into an attacking force anC
made an attack from the north. OF
course the Infantry routed the artill-
cry and pulled the guns back 10 the
Academy.
A large crowd of spectators wa
present to witness the maneuvers.

~BAooALAUREATE SERMON.

The b%accalaureate sermon was
preached by DR.. r. S. Frank OF Lib.
erty, Sunday morning in the Christ
ian Church. The building was filled
to overlooking. A good many had
to give up their seats to make room
for the cadets and more could not
get in at all.
The Wentworth students were
seated 10 the center OF the house
and extended almost TO The back
wall. TIL graduating class occupied
the first fou' rows
Mrs W ] Bandon, the director
Of music had provided an excellent
program. An orchestra consisting Of
Miss Goodloe, A. Il. Smith, Capt
Day, and Cadets Wickotf and Sellers
accompanied the anthem and hymns
The choir gave a beautiful "re
Deum'' and Miss Marcia Sellers sang

as follows;
