er was as follows:
80 Almighty God. who hast built
Thy church upon the foundation of
the Apostles and Prophets. our fathers
built here house dedicated TO learn
ing and to Thy glory; and its founda-
tion was laid in hope of Thee When
one of the casualties of time destroyed
the usefulness of this structure, Thy
servants buisied themselves to re-
store and renew it, and, by Thy grace,
their work has been accomplished
This restored house we would again
dedicate to learning and rededicate il
to Thy glory Except the Lord build
the house their labour is but lost that
build it; that it stands today, we know
our fathers built for Thee Except the
Lord keep the city, the watchman
waketh but in vain, and so we pray
that we may keep for Thee what they
dedicated, and we desire to rededicate
Grant us so to be joined with them
and with the Apostles and Prophets in
purpose and in Christ the head cor
nerstone; that this house may be
kept and we and all who use it may be
made holy and acceptable unto Thee
Through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Joked With The New Bell

To make a test of the new Mcdowell
Hall bell. some of the students yester-
day afternoon pulled the cord. The
tone of the bell is so vey similar to that
of the fire alarm bell at Independent
Fire Company's qurters that many per-
sons hurried from their homes in an
ticipation of fire. Not only this, the
negro drivers of the city garbage wa
gon. as Independent Company has the
contract for hauling garbage, hurried to
quarters for the animals to draw the
apparatus, only to find that their errand
was useless.

HON. j. WRIT RANDALL'S SPEECH

The orator of the occasion was the
Hon. John Writ Randall, one of the
Board of Visitors and Governors of
st. Johns College, and an alumnus of
the institution. Mr.. Randall spoke
as follows:
"Wth the exception of the old State
House, and perhaps the still older State
building, which we yet call the "Treas-
ury Building, there is or was no build
ing in the State the destruction of which
could cause more general regret than
Mcdowell Hall, st. John s College.
When, therefore, on the 20th of Feb
ruary, 1909, the news was flashed over
the wires that Mcdowell Hall had been
burned, it was regarded and spoken of as
a public calamity by the press of the
State and even by many newspapers
without its borders. Letters of regret
and promises of assistance poured in
from Alumni of the College and from
many persons never connected with it;
and public meetings were held in various
parts of the State looking to giving aid
in its reconstruction. IT is not 10 be won
