Scatterbrain remember to do his wife's
bidding.

Memphis.-True to tradition, the
women put one over again on mere
man, when the classes in medicine.
dentistry and pharmacy were gradu.
ated. The first honors In each class
fell easily to young women, which, al.
ter all, is not so singular, when 1t Is
recalled that women usually capture
such honors. There were 90 medical
graduates, one Of whom was woman,
Miss Alma Bridger Richards Of
Crockett county. She won the high
est honor There were nine graduates
in dentistry, one of whom. Miss Ruth
Peyton Brooks of Memphis, was a
woman. She won the highest honor.
The only woman in the six members
of the pharmacy class, Miss Emily
Holt McCurdy of Memphis, won the
highest honor.
Senator Charles w. Rocks delivered
the address to the class, which was
one of the largest that ever left the
classic halls of the university.
1t was remarkable occasion.
Senator Rocks is the savior of the
university. AS it's president, Dr.. Borwn
Ayres, said, it is doubtful whether the
college of medicine here could have
lived another year if it had not been
for Senator Rocks. AS chairman of
the joint legislative committee in the
last legislature he made higher educa-
zion his aim. He fostered the bill
which gave the university a million
dollars and put into it the breath of
life.
II told the graduating class last
year." said DR.. Ayres, that the day
must come when statesman would
rise who would make the education of
great state his aim. That man is
here. He rose sooner than we hoped
for, but he came in good season"
He spoke of Senator Rocks. The
senator received flattering welcome.
Members of the faculty, led by Dr.
Lucius Desha, dean of the colleges of
medicine and pharmacy, and Dean
Gardner of the college of dentistry,
were particularly enthusiastic over the
reception of Senator Rocks. A large
company, of ladies and gentlemen,
friends of the graduating class and Of
the university, gathered to greet them
all The exercises were held in Rogers
Hall.
