LARGE SENIOR CLASS

Their arms overlooking with bunch
es of the seasons finest flowers, for
ty three full graduates OF the Woman s
college asst evening left the stage OF
the Academy of Music to the strains
OF Home, Sweet Home" just as the
curtain fell upon the grand finals OF
that institutions commencement week
But seldom has there been seen a
larger gathering OF Richmond's beauty
and the simplicity and dignity Of the
exercises last evening were in per-
feet accord making the significance OF
their purpose impressive upon both
the graduates and their many friends
who composed the audience.
Only the gallery was void Of en-
thusiastic friends or proud parents
of the black capped and gowned SEN
tors who occupied seats upon the stage
In the orchestra, boxes and the bal
cony there could hardly be found any
vacant seats. Portions OF the or
chestra and certain boxes were re-
served for the undergraduates OF the
school and those who received d.
plomas on particular subjects, or who
had won certificates Of merit. Other
sections of the theatrr were filled with
the relatives and those most interest
ed in the evnt which marked the pass
ing OF the school girl and the APP
pearance Of the woman.
The Rev. D. H. c. Machlachlan. who
made the address to the graduates.
delivered series of thoughts in which
he stressed the idea that culture while
right and proper should notN be al
lowed to dominate the life, for when
| it did SO the person was actuated by
selfish motives, he was aiming for
purely personal ends and was unheed-
ful OF tfesneed and in which his cub
ture should aid in obliterating.
Decries Selfish Life.
DR.. Maclachlan decried the selfish
pleasure-seeking life and dwelt upon
the life that Is governed by love. ITO
live for pleasure declared the
speaker, "is beneath the dignity Of
man. and when one allows his life to
be governed by this motive he descends
to the level Of the brutes. Nor does
the term pleasure refer wholly to
these sensuous acts which lead direct
ly to destruction. There are others
which have to be guarded against al
most as hard as do they for all pleas
ure carried to excess leads to self-de-
lstruction."
True pleasure" emphasized DR..
Maclachlan, comes with toll and ID
the reward Of work. And It In never
satisfied. for 1t grows with each ac-
complishment.
Culture is good so far as It goes.
Other things being equal 1t Is excel
lent, for manhood and womanhood Ii
lowered by uncouthness. But when II
becomes the sole aim and end Of q
lie culture misses Its mission and ID
conducive of selfxhness 1t il beau
ltiful, but unsatisfying. and when 1t bids

caucus today. Virginia Ia shown to
have added another chairmanship to
her list, making four in all for the
State, a record exceeded by no other
State. This In q remarkable showing,
and a just reward for the people OF
the State who for the most part
have kept their representatives on
the Job long enough for them to rise
to high positions. The added chair
man Is Carter Glass. who has been
expected for some time to succeed
Pujo, of Louisiana, as chairman OF
the banking and currency commit
tee. This Is one of the big ten
committees whose members are In
eligible for membership OF any other

Queer ironing.

a writer in the Wide World maya
zine says that the most curious sight
he say at Cairo was men ironing
clothes with their feet! The men
were employed in the native tailoring
establishments.
Except for the long handle. the
iron were shaped like the ordinary
flat-ron, only larger. A solid block
Of wood rested on the toy of the iron,
and on this the men placed one foot
guiding the iron in the desired direc-
ton by means of the handle. For the
sake o. convenience, ironing boards
were raised only few inches from
the ground, and, however strange the
method may seem to us, the work
was done very well and very expedi-
tiousiy.

FLOWERS IN THE HOUSEHOLD
Simple Methods That viii Keep Them
Alive, Fragrant, and Pleasure
for Many Days.

To make flowers last a week or
more, four things are necessary. First,
do not try TO arrange them the mo-
ment you get them, but put them in a
pail or water for a few hours, SO that
every stem will be under water up TO
the flower. Second. cleanse the vase
thoroughly before putting in the fow-
ers and change the water. every day.
Third. the cooler you keep the flowers
the longer they will last. II you are
too busy in the morning TO enjoy them
or have to go out for the afternoon, do
not leave them in the living rom, for
they are not used to such tempera-
ture. Every night put the vase in a
cool place, or better still, plunge the
stems up to the flowers in a pail of
water. Fourth, cut about quarter of
an inch of each stem in the morning
1t is more trouble to do this under
water, but it pays. IL you cut the
stems in the ordinary way air bubbles
get into the stems and impede the tax.

control. President Wilson is right.
The people should control the bank

The day is coming when the people
will even have greater control over

Business is rapidly becoming PUB
Lie instead Of PRIVATE. There is
no business that is private enough to
be Independent of the public. What

No bank that has the peoples

by using it and lending it can pos
sibly be private business concern.
It is a public servant and should be
