among the things that have made AL
len Academy what 1t is and that have
builded for 1t reputation far ant
near as one Of the very best prepare
tory schools in all the South.
The commencement exercises prop
er opened with the commencement
sermon by Rev. Price, and under most
favorable auspices. The day was per
feet and splendid audience filled the
airdome. the greater part OF whom
were either friends or patrons of the
academy. A large section of the hall
Immediately in front OF the rostrum
was reserved for the student body and
members of the faculty. The young
men marched in body and as they
quietly took their seats 1t was certain,
ly an inspiring spectacle. They repre-.
sented the flower OF the young man.

earnest, manly looking body of young
men is not to be found anywhere.
The evangelist chose for his theme,
Home Life,or What We Are in Our
Homes" and the discourse was a mas.
terful presentation of this great sub
ject. 1t treated the home life OF
every member of the fa-,'ly. the clos.
ing being directed to young men, and
especially the young men of the
academy. Two great lessons were
drawn for them, the first being their
duty to their parents, and urging them
that no matter what comes, what
stress OF circumstances. whether sue.
cess or failure is theirs, in all and
through all be true to father and
mother. The second thought was that
no great success, no real success
could come to them unless their lives
were grounded in the religion of Jesus
Christ, and their every act guided and
influenced by it.
F. Graduating Exercises.
The graduating exercises were held
at the Colonial Theatre this morning
at 10 o'clock. This is a slight change
from the practice of former years.
when these exercises were held on
Wednesday. The change was made
so visitors from a distance could be
present at both the commencement
sermon and graduating exercises
without having to wait over from Sun
day TO Wednesday.
At 10 o'clock, the appointed hour.
the Colonial was filled almost to its
capacity with the people of Bryan
who are appreciative OF the splendid
exercises always given by this school
on graduation day. When the cur.
tain rose II was an inspiring scene
that met the vision of the visitors.
Beautiful cut flowers. ornamental
shrubs and graceful palms and ferns
formed an ideal setting for the mem.
bers of the graduating class and prin-
cipals of the school, who were seated

ROSENBERG MEN TO ORGANIZE
RURAL CREDIT UNION

Rosenberg, Tex, May 1S.-Joseph
Dedek of this city is perfecting plans
for the organization of a rural credit
union. Mr.. Dedek is receiving much
encouragement from the farmers in
this section and it is their plan to CO.
operate with him in every way posi-
BILE in perfecting this system. This
will be the first credit union organized
in Texas under the act OF the Thirty
third Legislature, and it is the inten-
ton of the organizer to put the union
in operation shortly so as to afford
sufficient time to demonstrate the de.
tects and needs OF the law before the
next Legislature meets.

ALIEN ACADEMY
COMMENCEMENT
Commencement Sermon at Airdome
Sunday, Graduating Exercises
at Opera House Today.

The commencement exercises OF
Allen Academy began yesterday morn
ing with the commencement sermon
at the airdome at II o'clock by Evan.
gelist Thurston b. Price, and these
exercises mark the closing OF another
busy and prosperous session of this
splendid school. The session now
closing has not been the most largely
attended in the schools history, but
1t was large and held up better. that
is, there were fewer designations or
dropping out from other causes than
during any session the school has
known. The session has also been
marked by the earnest, faithful work
done by both students and teachers,
an absolute necessity to the accom-.
plishment OF such splendid results as
have been attained this year in Allen
Academy, and which were reflected In
the brilliant graduating exercises wit
messed by the friends and patrons OF
the school this morning. Such work
and such results, combined with the
environments of the school-its splen.
did and healthful location, its commo.
dious and comfortable buildings, its
splendid equipment of all kinds and
the refined and Christian influences
that surround the student body, are

THE BRYAN DAILY EAGLE.

In a semicircle, together with DR.
Randolph Ray. rector of st. Andrews
who invoked the divine blessing upon
the occasion, the school and especial
ly the members Of the graduating
class.
The announcements were made by
Prof. r. o. Allen, who read the list OF
the senior class. together with the
subjects OF their themes, as follows:
Guy Bittle THE South Coming

Fannie Allen-"woman's Education

Edgeworth Webb-"woodrow viii

Merwin Peters-"Parcels Post"
Ebert Slataper = "The Panama

Renick Smith-Theme written last
year.
Robert Trant "Interurbans in
Texas"
Rufus Vandiver-"City Building"
Owing to the number in the class,
1t was possible for only part of them
to read, and the first four appearing
on the list were chosen. 1t is not
fiattery, but justice and truth that
impels The Eagle to state that in
both subject matter, elegance of die
ton and manner of presentation, no
senior class of Allen Academy in for
mer years ever delighted an audience
with superior essays to those present
ed this morning. Each was a gem,
and showed patient and careful study
and research in its preparation. They
were a credit to the academy and an
honor to those who presented them.
At the conclusion OF the reading of
the essays, Prof. ]. II. Allen made
the announcements with reference to
the class, stating that some OF them
had not completed the full course re-
CURED for graduation and these were
given certificates for all work done.
and they will be given their diplomas
when the work has been completed,
either in the academy or some other
of higher education.
Those having completed the full
course were awarded diplomas, as fol.
lows: Miss Frances Allen, William
Jennings Bergman. Edgeworth Webb,
Guy Bittle and John Graves. Renick

by L. B. White was approved and
adopted by the court as the delinquent
