COMMENCEMENT DAY
Pleasant Day-More Attentive Crowds

OF dust from the fine government
road stretching through the College
grounds, blowing first north toward
the main college buildings and the

sJuthward and hiding from view the
buildings on the other side of the
street and making it very unpleas-
ant for all who had TO cross or found
| II necessary to be for even a few
minutes within three hundred feet
Of the source of the cloud by day"
Some few people did not seem TO
mind 1t very much and even spread
their dinners within a few feet of the
road. And many others were equal
ly oblivious to the discomfort as
well as danger, and crowded the
streets near the various booths on
the sidewalk leading down to the
Iostoffice. Incidentally 1t should he
said that these booths and merry
go-round and takers stands in gen.
eral are nuisances and should not be
permitted at all by the town authori-
ties. They make Commencement Day
smack of the County Fair. They
are not tolerated anywhere else that
we know of.
While we are mentioning disagree

first, 1t might be we'll to stop the
hullabaloo from the top of the

KENTUCKY HALL
Everybody Takes Hold Cheerfully.
Whv Didn't We Think of u Bsfore2

The movement for the erection of
new building for Berea College
girls has proved surprisingly popular.
And the best thing about 1t is that
we can raise the money among our
selves.
That IL is needed everybody knows.
Hundreds of young people who wish
To attend Berea are turned away.
For the young men many temporary
accommodations in industrial build
ings and barracks have been provid-
ed, but we cannot do this for the
girls.
The Institution has large resources
indeed, but It comes to the end OF
the long adjustment struggle" heav-
lily in debt, and every dollar Of its
income and much more is pledged for
the support of the great work it is
already doing. "Berea College never
can be rich as long as there is q
single poor man whose children need
education" says President Frost.
But while the Eastern and City peo
pie who have helped Berea are drop
ping away like the good DR.. Pear
sons, or feeling that they have done
their share, new friends are coming
up right here. The students have
set out to raise $1,000 and they are
well on the way. The Faculty will
probably do as much more. And the
citizens OF Berea are good" for an
ether $1,000. MIR. John II. Rogers, a
trustee, and son of Berea's first
head, and one of the children who
were driven from the state with
their parents by the mob of 1853,
promised to give $1,000 on condition
that the citizens OF Berea would
subscribe $4,000 within one week. AS
we go to press this $4,000 is pledged
in full. and people still to be heard
from are probably good for the re-
naming thousand. So we hope in a
short time to announce that Berea
subscribed a full $4,000 as follows:
Students. $1,000. Faculty, $1,000
Citizens. $4,000. MIR. Rogers. 1000.
And then We shall consider what
former students at a distance car
do. Already they have sent In several
hundred dollars.
And then we shall ask Madison
County, outside Berea, for its prop
er share.
And then we shall see what oul
nearby counties. Estill. Jackson. Ows

too much to say suffering from-an
unusual cold snap during the past
week. Frost was recorded in some
places in the northwest and predict
