The alumni exercises were held IN the
auditorium on Monday night, and were
followed by the annual alumni banquet
in the town hall. The members OF the

cises in body. The principal feature OF
the evening was the very excellent ad-
dress by Rev. Richard Edwards, OF Bal
timore, who graduated from Shepherd
College in 1893. His address was based
on the three maxims, Know Thyselt,
Control Thyself, Deny Thyself, and IT
was very helpful and inspiring talk.

by Miss Edith Donley, and vocal solos
were rendered by Miss Louise Welshans
and Franklin Lyme. The members OF
the class of 1911 sang a song entitled

delightful banquet was served. Nearly
two hundred persons were present.

ganiown, whose subject was "Then and
Now" Rev. John w. Link, OF Stras-
burg, Va, who spoke on "Alumni Paths; )"
Mrs. St. Clair Clayton, who talked OF

impressions made upon the class OF 1912
by their first evening as members OF the
Alumni Association.

serving the Lord" 1t was earnest, i'm
pressive and practical, the speaker ex-
horting the young men and women now
making new step into life's duties and
responsibilities to aim toward the highest
ideals. His address was full OF wise
counsel, and in beautiful language and
with winning voice the good Doctor

all who heard it. The several ministers
of the town participated in the service
and solos were sung by Mrs. Phineas

esting features OF the programme was the
representation of a class, conducted by
Frank Yates, who impersonated Prof.
Miller. The musical numbers OF the
programme were duet by Edith Gard
ner and Lulu Winters, solo by Samuel
Williamson, and two songs by the class.
The mascot, white dove, signlfylng
peace, was presented by the class preSl-
dent to Paul West, the president OF the
junior class.

Brown was running q hotel at

III. Case Goods for sale by
c. S. ECAN, Agent.
The Irvine Situation
Peter Brown. Prop.

Owing to the Irvine shortage, it has been necessary to pay ad-
vanced prices for a considerable percentage, and to make local
shipments and partcar shipments, for the reason that in an effort
to supply everybody. the mills will not allow any dealer more than
q half-car at most. This is of course making it expensive to
handle, but we are using every effort to keep Irvine on hand to
binde the crop as it natures. After to-day we think we will be in
position to make larger deliveries, as we have shipment notices of
three lots which should get in on Thursdays freight. We are
selling the Irvine at less than some of the mills are asking whole
sale for it, and will handle upon a reasonable basis throughout the
harvest,
However it will be quite a help to US if our customers will let
us know AT ONCE how much additional Irvine they will need, so
that We may be able to estimate what Irvine it will be necessary to
shin in Under the present conditions we cannot afford to ship
more than is needed and be obliged to carry it over until another
wear. and if the trade will keep US informed in this way, we will
endeavor to keep the Irvine on hand as needed, but we should have
the information at an early date as shipments are very slow in
coming through.
