Founders Day Celebration At St,
HiIdS's Hall.

st. Hilda's Hall, Charles Town. West
Virginia. has just celebrated her 6Fst
Founders Day. The ceremony, most
unique and significant one. was particle
pated in by the Bishop Coadjutor of the
Diocese. the Rt, Rev. w. L. Gravatt.
and the Rector of the Parish. the Rev. ].
s. Alfriend. the Faculty and the students,
At the close of the religious service
which was held in Camden Hall. the
school singing Let there be Light
marched into the large sitting room called
Whitby aud ranged themselves in cir
Gle about wood fire. This was lighted
by the youngest girl in the school, and
upon ii was placed an oak log. a part of
which was to be preserved to light the
fires on future Founders Days. The
Preside circle with its inspiration of
LONELINESS and warmth and cheer is a
vital part of the life of the school.
The principal gave short account Of
the events which has lead to the found
ing of the school, closing her, remarks
with a vivid picture of st. Hilda and
her maidens at the ancient WhitbY,
whose life and work were being perpet.
nated on this side of the Atlantic. An
account of the life of the Abbess was
then given by one of the Academic stu
dents. and the explanation of the school
seal and motto by another. A younger
girl read the life of Camden and was fol-
lowed by recitation in concert of the
first part of Camden's Paraphrase Of the
Creation. The purpose and aims of the
school were set forth IN q charter which
was signed by all present.
The most unique part of the ceremony
was placing the link" On the oak pam
cling Of the wall had been placed near
the ceiling in large figures the date. Iooos
and depending from this was chain Of
fourteen links IMPLYING the fourteen
years of the former schools which had
been carried on in the present building.
Where this chain ended was the date
1915, and here was placed by the smallest
girl the open link of St. Hilda's first
year to be closed in June, and followed
her friends hope and believe, by other
perfect links, The cham represents the
schools connection through the great
personalities who have kept always the
vision of ST. Hilda, with that far off
time when she founded the first lnstitu-
ton for the education of women.
Bishop Gravatt closed the evening
with a few verbs of hearty encourage
ment and God speed for the new school
which is so bravely setting forth on the
great and never ending work of bringing
up children in the paths of the Church.

for the failure of the power plant Of

will not be placed on any individual,
it was learned today when the report
of the official which conducted the

The failure Of the boiler, it was
