FINE ENDING OF A GOOD YEAR

The annual commencement exer-
cises of Hartford College began Sun
day with the baccalaureate sermon
b by Rev. A. N. Couch, of owensboro'
at the Baptist Church. The build
ing was seated to its fullest capacity.
The graduating class assembled in
the court house yard and marched
in a body to the church, where seats
had been reserved for them. The
sermon was one of the finest ever
delivered here. Classic in diction,
eloquent in delivery and comprehen-
sive in its broad meaning, it embrace
ed beautiful thought and the sound
fest scriptural doctrine as applied
TO educational themes. 1t was high
" complimented on all sides.
A special feature of the occasion
was the music. A picked choir rem
dered two anthems and other songs,
and Miss Sue Wright sang beauti-
full solo, accompanied by Mr.. Emory
Schroeder on the violin, with Miss
Fife Render at the organ. Miss
Wright has a splendid voice of rare
sweetness and she gave a touching
pathos to her selection, which was
classic in it's rendition. The song
service was splendid in its entirety,
the best that has been heard here
in a long while and was much COM
plimented by many who heard 1t.
