Graduation week at every school and
university ~ naturally the gayest and
most festive of the year and this is es-
pecially true ut the United States
naval academy at Annapolis. Md. How
ever, there are indications that the
graduation season Of lsl2 at Uncle
Sans great maritime university viii
surpass. In spectacular and social fea-
tures. any Of its predecessors even al
this naval sent of learning. which
Is famous FOR Its picturesque wind-up
OF the academic year. Indeed. the pros.
pect of unusual attractions has drawn
an exceptional number Of visitors from
all parts Of the country sightseers
who love an impressive show as well
as those who are kin to the graduates
There are several factors which are
contributing To make the present grad
,atioD season notable ut the $40. .OO0, 900
training school for our future admirals.
Prominent among these influences In
the fact that congress has finally.
after years of entreaties. passed leg
islaton swhich enables the graduates
at Annapolis to be commissioned as
full-fledged officers I'm the navy as
soon as they receive their diplomas.
Formerly, the graduates were. In ef-
feet. kept on probation for two years
and since their rank during this in
terim was merely that of passed mid.
shipman the status was unsatisfactory
In some respects. But the graduates
OF 1912 can be commissioned as en-
signs Immediately upon graduation
and attain at once to all the prerog-
ntives of officers in Uncle Sans sea
service.
Another departure from former pro.
cedure that gives a new interest and
dignity to the present wind-up Of the
academic year II that II is now the
plan to send the "middies" for their
summer cruise on the first class bat
,leships of our navy instead of on spe-
cial practice ships of somewhat anti
auated type as was formerly the GUS
tom. As our readers are doubtless
aware 1t has been long the custom at
the naval academy to have all the stu
dents devote the three summer months
TO practice in seamanship and naviga-
tion on the broad Atlantic-the stu
dent body sailing away at the close OF
graduation week and not returning un-
til September. Formerly. however. OBJ

Even without the special frills that
viii render notable the big week of
1912 at Annapolis II may be empha-
sized that graduation week AT the
naval academy is quite different from
the corresponding occasion ut other
seats of learning. As q matter OF fact
In naval and official circles II Is al
most always referred to as June
week" In place of graduation week.
That gives n hint as to the situation
the graduation exercises are merely
one feature of the six or seven day
round of excitement and. from the
standpoint Of the average onloolker. the
awarding of the diplomas is the least
impressive incident of the program and
is quite overshadowed by the displays
replete with naval pomp and cere-
mOny
The explanation of this state of af-
fairs Is that the final week Of the ac-
ademic year at Annapolis has n dual
character II is graduation week. but
IL Is also visitors week" The latter
has not the significance that some
readers nigh suppose. II does not

This convention of 1896 was notable
