A TRUE LOVE.

I have come hack to my first love, to

To the beautiful face and the cease
less voice of music and mystery
From the weary wastes of the inland
ways, from the homes and
haunts of pain
l have brought a tired life back to
lay it down on her shrine again.
The dust of the years is over my
heart, the SHOWS eff the years in
my hair,
But fiutteT of youth thrills through
my veins to behold and find her
fair;
To watch the sparkle and CLEAN Of
her face, to hear her voice di
vine,
And drink the balm of her breath that
thrills the pulse of my heart
like wine.
What if the years have been bitter
and the milestones marked with
shame
Have they not brought me back to
her, and is she not still the
same
The one Unchanging, steadfast STAIN
less love of my younger day
Whose perfect voice never breathed
hope a faithless heart could be-
tray?
Q, my trueSt love, my constant love.
when the burden of life is done,
Into thine arms let me sink to sleep as
sinks the westering sun,
Lulled at last to rest by a voice that
never has he'd to me
In death, as in life, my lover, my heart
to thy heart, o Sea!

COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES
AT PALMER COLLEGE. Q'EuNIAK

The seventh season of Palmer col
lege came TO a most successful close
Wednesday with the graduation exer-
Cises in the Chautauqua auditorium.
For the first time in the history
of the college there was a graduating
class in the college department, The
day therefore marks an epoch in the
life of the institution. The college
has been building slowly and soundly
through its various departments to
the eliminating point of comforting
the degree of bachelor of arts upon
its graduates; and it is a matter of
congratulation and rejoicing that the
dream of DR.. L. r. Walker and the
board of trustees has been thus far
realized.
The bachelors degree was conferred
upon J. Ralph Campbell, Miss Chris
tian ellis, and Miss Margaret Sowell.
These young people are fit in ability
and character to reflect honor and
credit upon any institution and Pal
mer college may well place its stamp
of approval upon them with pride and
rejoicing.
Miss Mary Mclean, John A. ellis
and Frank Simmons received diplo-
mas from the academy. they having
successfully completed the prescribed
course. Misses Vivian Daniel and
Mary Vic Boyle received certificates
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1914-06-05

in piano from the music department;
Miss Daniel also received a certificate
in voice
The commencement as a whole was
the most successful ever held. Every
event was carried through with ease
and smoothness which showed care
full training and bespoke the sound
character Of the work throughout the
year.
The Baccalaureate sermon was
preached by DR.. VIM. B. Y. Wilkes.
DR.. Wilkes spoke with earnestness
and appealing force from the text,
The Fear of the Lord Is the Begin
ming of wisdom"
justice to each event, and we shall
not attempt to discriminate when all
were of such uniform merit.
However, more than passing notice
should be given to the able address
delivered 10 the graduates yesterday
by Dr.. J. W. Purcell OF PaIatka.
Much was expected Of DR.. Purcell be-
cause of his known ability, and be dis
appointed his audience in no point.
His address eIoquently empha sized
character as the principle acquisition.
After the announcement by the
president, in which he showed the
character and Importance Of the work
Of the college and asked for the con-
tinued loyalty and support of the
community, the exercises were closed
by singing, Aud Lang SYne," by the
audience. The next session will be-
gin on September 10th, ard will con-
tfnue for nine months. This latter IS
one more step in advance to put Pal
mer in the forefront OF southern
schools

SUPPER-DANCE AT THE OLD
MILL INN EVENT OF SATURDAY

dancing contingent. Anderson Doug
Lass will furnish music for the new
and captivating dances, which so cast
their spell over young and old last
winter, that they have not lost their
interest in the new steps, even though
it is summer.
With the cooling breezes, it is not
warm at the Old Mill Inn, these
charming moonlight nights. and So
ciety will motor or go down on the
electric cars to enjoy the evening to
the fullest extent. The shirt waist
girl and the man in business suit will
be present in large numbers, for the
evening is to be most informal. 1t is
getting almost too warm for real
dress up parties but the fluffy, friliy
things OF summer are always lovely,
and the men will be considered quite
correct in business quits from the Of
Ace or the tennis fiannels, as the mood
permits.
Pensacola is not slow to appreciate
the good things the gods provide, and
1t is little wonder that the supper
dances at the Old Mill Inn are prov
ing so popular with society here, for
they form a most delightful means
of summer diversion.
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1914-06-05

Miss May Curtis and Mrs. r. A.
Hyer have inaugurated a most de-
hghtful series of supper dances at the
Old Mill Inn, which are proving so
charming that society from city and
bayshore are finding them the most
delightful means of relaxation that
the season affords.
These affairs have already proven
most successfully, but on Saturday
evening the supper-dance promises to
be ar innovation which will appeal
particularly at this time of the year,
when the out of doors has it's allur-
ing call, and the water and woods
appeal to those who dine and dance.
The Old Mill Inn is so beautifully
situated that one has all the pleasure
of city and country environment, and
the dancers will find all that they can
desire in the way of entertainment.
First of all, there Is to be a regular,
bonafide, old-timey fish supper than
which there is nothing more enticing
and appetizing-fish fresh from the
bay, cooked a la Pensacola, as they can
be cooked nowhere else. Then cards
