Commencement Exercises

of the Class of Nineteen Thirteen
of Madison Institute were held |
on Wednesday morning at the ,
Presbyterian Church. The pulpit
was tastefully decorated with ,
palms, southern smilax and pot /,
ted plants, a veritable fairyland
of green.
Promptly at the hour of ten the
graduates entered the church and
walked slowly down the aisle,
daintily clothed in their snowy
gowns and carrying loose punches
of pink carnations; fairer,
sweeter set of girls could not
have been found.

by Rev. c. K. Marshall and was
followed by a chorus of girl voices
"Sweeter Than the Breath of
Morning"
: Miss Nora Griggs then gave
her essay, Good Reading" which
showed very careful preparation
and was well delivered. Miss
Mabel Foster Rayburn took as
| her subject who is the Real
Americana" and treated it in an
interesting and original manner.
''The Educated Woman" by Miss

work done by Mrs. S. B. Hume's
class in basket making and paper
cutting, the program by the De-
partment of Latin was given at
the Chapel. This included "A
Roman Wedding" which was one
of the best things presented dur
ing the day, Astounding in noble
latin phrases, absurd situations
and laughable characters. To Prof.

resented and all did their parts
perfectly. At the conclusion OF
the play, the patrons of the school
and other guests were invited out
on the Campus where a tempting
dinner was served. Immediately

tween her and Andrews, whose
forceful personality demanded that
sympathetic understanding which it
was not Mildred Andrews to give.
They two had been associated to-
gether in Andrews work for nearly
six months. She had liked him in
stinctively the moment she set eyes
on him, and he had singled her out
from among a host of applicants, APP
parently without a moments hesita-
ton. He trusted in her completely in
her share of the difficult work which
he! performer as secretary of the
chemical company.
But her woman's instinct had sure
ly told her, during recent weeks, that
something more than esteem was
growing up between them. This was
the first occasion on which Andrews
had ever limited at domestic unhappi-
ness. She knew the depth and inten-
sity of his nature.
She went home to pass an almost
sleepless night. She reviewed all her,
past. She was already thirty years of
age; no love worthy of this name had
ever come into her life. And she could
not hide from herself the knowledge
that Andrews and she were made for
one another. She could give him such
devotion as was his need, if once she
let herself dwell upon the image of
him that was enshrined in her heart.
She fought against this awaken
ing love. Day after day found her on
her guard, lest by chance word,
even a look, she should betray her
self. And so the days passed.
1t happened at last, though. The
struggle was an intense one. She
had not realized how it had depleted
her of her strength. She had fought,
fought, in the hope of being able to
retain her position there, and the in
evitable reaction came Rising to go
home one evening, she suddenly fell
to the floor in a dead faint created by
