to sleep and placed in bed where its
rest was undisturbed until about
four o'clock Monday morning when
it was awakened by Mr.. Blanchard,
who arose and with his wife. pre-
pared breakfast, before he left for
his work or the NJ. E. Walker farm
distant a few miles north. After
a time the mother noticed that the
infant appeared uneasy and took the
child in her arms to try and sooth
the little fellow but as the hours
sped by the child seemed to grow
worse. Then the mother, to quiet
it, administered a doze of laud-
mum which soon quieted the babe.
After awhile the mother noticed that
the child was still asleep and pro-
ceeded to do her Homework. Fin
ally, Mrs. Blanchard, thinking it
was time to arouse the baby dis
covered that all she could do fail
ed to arouse the slumbering one.
Then it was that the mother be-
came frightened and wrapping the
child up securely, started for the
office of DR.. Logan about one and a
half miles away. When she reached
the doctors office the child was
then in a comatose condition. This
was about four O'Clock. From then
on all that could be done was done
but the little fellow succombed to
the will of the Great Master and
breathed its last at midnight. The

pathy to the bereaved family in

FORMER PULLMAN GIRL
WINS HIGHEST HONORS
Miss Dorothy Mason, Daughter of
Rev. I'll. c. Mason, Graduates From
University of Washington With
Scholarship Record Seldom
Equalled.

The following clipping from the
Seattle P.-I. will be of interest to the
many Pullman friends of Miss Dor
othy Mason, daughter of Rev. H. C.
Mason, who was for mum Der of
years pastor of the Congregational
church at this place.
Among the 211 members of the
graduating class of the University of
Washington, who received their dip
Tomas and bid farewell to the cam
pus of that institution, there was
one girl who left behind her a record
of scholastic work which has been
equalled but three times in the fifty
yeaEA history of the university.
There were twelve other members
who won distinction by graduating
with cum laude" honors, but Miss
Dorothy Craik Mason far outstripped
her fellow students and left the
state university with magma cum
laude" honor, a distinction seldom
accorded to members of graduating
classes in universities throughout the
country.
In the earlier history of the uni
versity there was one whose scholas-
tic record was of such a nature to
merit the magma cum laude" In
1903 Mary Rhoda Greene was the
first to win the honor, which was
gained by Rose Kahan, in 1908, and
Edward Frederick Bucaffe, in 1910.
And now comes Miss Mason, the
fourth student at the university to
have her name inscribed on the high
est honor roll the university tradi-
tions maintain.
Miss Mason, daughter of Rev
Horace c. Mason, pastor OF the Uni
yersity Congregational church, was
not that type of student who applies
herself diligently to the use OF mid
night oil" and consequently earns the
student nickname OF grind"
A member Of the Alpha Xi Delta
sorority and a girl of beautiful ma
ture. Miss Mason has always been
popular among her fellow students
at the university.
Miss Mason's record is distinc-
tive" said President Thomas F. Kane
the other day. I'm her four years
attendance at the university Miss
Mason has never passed in a subject
lower than the highest grade that an
instructor can give and the members
of the faculty are we'll pleased to
have the opportunity of giving her
the honor she so justly has earned. 3"

who delivered the address to the
class. President Kerr is a man of
pleasing appearance and voice, and
was given the closest attention
throughout his address, which oc-
cupied So minutes. His subject was
Education" and he reviewed it
from the earliest efforts of man to
improve the mind, to the present day.
His address was full of interesting
historical facts and showed the
speaker to be thoroughly conversant
with the subject under discussion.
Following the address President
Bryan called the members of each
class to the stage and presented each
with the diploma for which he or she
had worked for the past three or
four years. AS each class left the
stage, the audience, faculty, regents
and alumni gave the members hearty
applause. President Bryan address
ed the class in voice full of feeling,
speaking to them as father would
speak to his children as they left the
home of their childhood to battle
with the world. 1t was "A Last
Word, as President Bryan put it,
but it went deep to the hearts of the
graduates and the large audience
His address was full of wholesome
advice and good feeling for the
young men and women who have
been under his charge for so long.
President Bryan announced brief
ly the most important acts Of the re-
gents at the meeting which closed
Thursday morning and the audience
stood while Rev. G. H. Harrison, pas
tor of the First Congregational
church, offered a benediction. The
audience remained seated while the
pipe organ played the occasional
and the presidents, regents, faculty,
graduates, and alumni marched out
in the order in which they had emit
cred. They form ed in a semi circle
back of the Administration building,
with the band in the hollow of the
crescent thus formed and with barred
heads, all joined in singing Aud

A band of 100 sheep turned into
the city park Tuesday night did much
toward putting the park into good
condition for the Fourth of July
celebration. The sheep were owned
by j. w. Campbell, of Willow Creek,
who was taking them to their sum-
mer pasture in the mountains of
Idaho. The growth of weeds in the
park had baffled the efforts of the
business men who had been putting
it in good condition for the entertain
ment of visitors and the statement
of Mr.. Campbell that the sheep
would do the work was proved the
next morning when the park was
found to be almost cleared of weeds
and underground.

Delivers Address

The fifteenth annual commence
ment OF Washington State College,
held in the Auditorium Thursday
forenoon, marked another epoch in
the advance of education in Wash
ington, when a class of los young
men and women received diplomas
and left the institution forever. While
this number fell slightly below the
class of 1910, it was the largest class
ever graduated from that school with
that single exception.
The large Auditorium, with a seat
ing capacity of more than 1900, was
packed with spectators, graduates
and alumni, while the large stage
was occupied by nearly 100 members
of the faculty, the regents, guests of
honor of the college, and those who
took part in the program. The musi-
cal part of the program was excep-
tionally fine and well rendered.
Professor Evans played the Pro-
gressive march from Weyerbeer as
the procession, headed by Presi-
dent Bryan and President Kerr, of
the Oregon Agricultural College
marched down the aisles and took
their places on the stage or in the
space reserved. First came the
heads of the two schools, the regents,
guests of honor, faculty, who occu-
pied 200 seats on the first floor of
the Auditorium, directly in front of
the stage, followed Rev James

Celebrate at Home.

The Herald this week refused an
offer of a sum considerably above
the regular advertising rates for the
insertion in our columns of a quarter
page ad. for the Fourth of July
celebration at Moscow. The Herald
believes in patronizing home industry
in every instance, and advertisements
requesting our people to go to some
other town to enjoy themselves, or
to send good money out of town for
merchandise that can be secured at
the same price, or less, in this city,
will meet with no favor at our hands
Pullman Fourth of July will be a
hummer, and if you want thorough
enjoyment, stay at home and cele-
brate with the people who deserve
your patronage.
