Educated Rooster.

"Spizzerinktum" Is an odd name
even for rooster, but this rooster Is
no ordinary fowl. The bird comes
from strain of Barred Plymouth
Rocks, was Matched last May and
weighs six pounds. He is owned by
+. l.. Bennett of Hartford City, who
refuses to part with his prize-winner
ut any price. Judges at various fairs
where he has been shown, have told
the owner that he is a most promising
bird. and this is borne out by the fact
that 500 has been offered for him.
"Spizzerinktum" is also an educated
fowl. one of his chief delights is rid
ing the seat of specially constructed
wagon and holding the reins over eight
boys who act as SteedS for him. He

Kidney Disorder
(BY DR.. V. NJ. PIERCE. }

"The most simple methods are usu-
ally the most effective ones when
treating any disorder of the human
system" The mere drinking cup
Of hot water each morning, plenty
of pure water all day and n little
Anuric before every meal has been
found the most effective means OF
overcoming kidney trouble. Death
would occur If the kidneys did not
work day and night in separating
poisons and uric acid from the blood.
The danger signals are backache,
dcpressions, pains, heuvincss. drowsi-
ness. irritabilty, headaches, chilli
ness, rheumatic twinges, swollen
joints or govt.
Since it is such simple matter TO
step into your favorite drug store and
obtain Anuric, anyone who earnestly
desires TO regain health and new life
will waste no time in beginning this
treatment.

The average size of the farm on

That the small tractor is coming into
greater use in Minnesota is the re-
port of j. l.. Mowry of the division Of

three or four-plow machines while but

tune, was prominently featured in the
big parade which was witnessed by
scores of commencement visitors and
town folks. Glass songs were sung by
the marching men, class yells were
given, in addition to many of the stir
ring songs of the college itself. The
parade was an instantaneous hit and
its continuance was decided on immed-
lately.
The vaudeville program was to have
been given out-of-doors on a platform
especially constructed in front of AS
cension Hall, but owing to the inclem-
ent weather, it was necessary to stage
it in Rosse Hall.
A novel introduction to the program
came when members of the senior
class, appearing on the stage in street
costume, discussed the abandonment
of the time-honored senior class play
and resolved that something must be
given in it's stead to entertain the com
mencement visitors A quartet was
first introduced and was followed by
numerous sldts, produced and acted by
Kenyon men, as well as several other
musical selections. The balance of the
evening was devoted to dancing.

ence existed in their scholastic aver
ages.
The balance of the degrees were
then conferred and Dr. William Foster
Peirce made the annual announce
ments of the college.
The retirement of Prof. R. S. Deyol
from the chair of history with the rank
of emeritus professor, together with
his continuation as treasurer of the in
stitution was made known. Prof. De-
vols i'll health for the past several
months necessitated this action. To
fill this vacancy, Prof Cahall, now of
the Edwin NJ. Stanton chair of econ
omics, will become history professor,
while a new instructor, Prof. w. M.
Hudson of Clark college, Mass, will
be added to the faculty roll as incum-
bent of the chair of economics. To sue
ceed DR.. John S. Harrison as assistant
professor of English, there will come
to Gambler Prof. q. l.. Lockert of
Princeton, N. j., man of splendid at
tainments. An enlargement of the
scope of the English department is
contemplated.
Samuel Mather of Cleveland, peren-
nial donor to Kenyon of various funds,
has capitalized fund of $4,000, it
was announced, and has turned the
same over to the institution This gen
erous act on the part of Mr.. Mather on
ly establihsed him the more firmly in
the hearts of those who are interested
in Kenyon.
The past year, DR.. Peirce further an
nounced, has seen the raising of $4,000
toward the Bexley building fund and
the balance will be taken care of by
those in charge of the work.
The securing of a one-quarter mil
lion endowment fund will, DR.. Peirce
stated, be the aim of committee of
seven, appointed by the board Of trus-
tees of the institution. This fund will
be used for general purposes of Ken
yon college.
Under the new constitution, the
Right Rev. Theodore Irving Reese of
southern Ohio and William G. Mather
of Cleveland have been elected trus-
tees Of the college.
President Peirce called attention to
the fact that the college commons fee
would be raised S., starting with the
first semester of the next college year,
which will make the total fee $15, plus
$3.50 a week in board
From henceforth, athletic and col.
legian fees will be made requisite, ex-
cept when the student is personally eX.
cused by the president.
This concluded the announcements
and, following benediction by the
Right Rev. Boyd Vincent of southern
Ohio, the commencement ceremonies
ended. A feature was the singing ot

MYSTERY
Surrounds Automobile Accident on
Newark Road Saturday Afternoon
GREER KEEPS STRICT SILENCE
Refusing to Narrate Particulars Of
How His Machine Turned Turtle
Sustained Number of
Injuries and is Resting
At Hospital

Absolute refusal to state how his
automobile turned turtle on the New
ark road Saturday afternoon which
resulted in number of injuries to
him, makes more or less of a mystery
of the attitude of James b. Greer of
Greer who rests at the Mt Vernon
hospital recovering from his exper-

The accident occurred about four
o'clock in the afternoon and there was
nobody in the vicinity of the Newark.
Martinsburg road forks who seemed
to know much about the upset, save
that Greer was pinioned under his
machine when found in what appear.
ed serious condition.
His plight was discovered by an au
tomobile party driving south, who
turned the man over to Frederick B
Dechant of Richmond Ind, who was
