M|DD|ES At BANQUET.
Members OF Second Class Naval
Academy Have Feast At New
Willard, Washington.
WAR CRIES WITH COURSES.
Class President Given Naval Academy
Yell-Hearty Cheers For Others.

Last evening the members of the
second class, Naval Academy, accord
ing to a custom as old as the Academy
itself, held their annual banquet pre-
vious to the opening of the Naval
Academy today.
The ballroom at the New Willard,
Washington, was the scene of the fes-
tivities, and the decorations were flags
and bunting, pennants, etc., sent over
front he Naval Academy for the pur-
pose. Pennants'. and banners from the
colleges and universities adorned the
banquet hall, but the navy blue. with
its square, strong en-" predominated
in the color scheme. The entrance of
Z. L. Foutz, the class president into
the banquet hall, was the signal for
the loud Naval Academy yell, which
startled the persons passing the hotel.
Each course was started with a
song or Academy yell, and the
crowning event was the singing of
the class march, "All the Watch"
written by Lieut.. Charles A. Zim-
norman, U. S. NJ, and dedicated to
the class of 1918. The class song
was written by Midshipman J. M.
Miller and Midshipman S. F. Bryant,
both members of the class of 1918.
When their classmates sang their song
they were called upon to respond to
the hearty cheers. The midshipmen
stood with arms interlocked while
singing the song, and concluded the
feast with a series of their Academy
yells. A march about the ban
quet hall, singing 'Auld Lang Syne"
was one of the many features.
Special leave had been obtained by
the members of the class to attend
the event in civilian dress, a privilege
seldom granted to the midshipmen.
Early in the day they began trooping
into the Willard, preparing for the
| nights round of pleasure. All re-
mained in Washington last night, and
returned today to their duties at
the Naval Academy.
The details of the class supper
were in charge of B. G. Leighton, w.
H. P. Blandy, R. Vail and II. P.
Parmelee. For several weeks they
had been planning for the celebra-
tion, and surprised their classmates
with gorgeous menu card, bound in
leather and profusely illuminated with
etchings and paintings.
Several toasts were delivered by
members of the class, as follows
"The Glass;" Charles L. Foutz: "The
Boy Scouts" Robin B. Daughtry
"The Cruise, Bernard ]. Hunt; an, "
Lawrence Wild; "Afterward, H. P.
Blandy.
The second class suppers have be-
come institutions at the Naval Acad-
emy, being held on the expiration OF
the years leave.

ITEMS FROM IGLEHART'S.
Chicken Supper Success-Despite The
Fact Henneries Continue To Be
Robbed In This Section.

The chicken supper given by the La
dies Mite Society Of Edwards Chapel,
Parole, proved quite a success. 1t
went beyond expectations. Every
thing was sold out before the evening
was more tha half through The sup
per, of which nearly everything was
donated, was fine.
The chicken, of which there was
plenty, was cooked to a turn. The
salads and slaws were also fine. The
hall was packed and many stood out
side. There were many familiar faces
from Annapolis, and qNite a number
came in autos and carriages from near
and far The ladies are so pleased
they are thinking of having an oyster
supper in the near future.
Mr.. Fred Arth, of Twin Cedar, "
near Iglehart's, has met with a
great loss. Some time during We'd
nesday night a person or persons
entered his chicken house ana stole
most of his finest breeds and also
some harness. He is willing to offer
liberal reward for information
leading to the arrest of the guilty
party.
1t seems to becoming quite an epi-
demic around near Iglehart's for
farmers to lose their chickens. On the
farm of Mr.. j. II. Wagner, at Poplar
Level, they have had some one to
enter their chicken house at night and
take some valuable Rhode Island Reds.
1t seems nothing is safe, even behind
locks.
This section of the county is enjoy
ing fine rain, very much needed.
