sumptuous five-course feast the even

toward a solution of the certain bust
ness difficulties in and about Ames
| and the college. Perhaps more than
lever before the Fourth ward, or college
community, was thoroughly represent
ed and a feeling never so harmonious
| was expressed between the college peo-
pie and the town proper.
Judge c. G. Lee was toastmaster and
with his wit kept the spirit of the ev-
ening at q high pitch. The first toast
responded to was by President Storms
Of the college, who spoke Of the great
| growth OF the college and told how
gratifying the past years increase had
been.
Robert Cairns and DR.. o. II. Cessna
spoke on allied subjects. That Of Mr..
Cairns was the continuation Of Iowa
street and that of DR.. Cessna was THE
High Board Fence" Iowa street, II
continued to the college, would make
the driving distance much less than 1t
now is and bring the college and the
town much nearer to each other. The
high board fence is the great divide
between Ames and the college wherein
the social sets of each district go in
directions chosen by themselves and do
not cater to the advancement of the
!, social life of each other.
