hour. Twenty Seniors moved onto
the platform. Miss Pearson, the
president of the class, led the wor-
ship of the day by reading a part
OF the Berea Psalm psalm 37). The
Senior Glass song was sung by the
class and then Mr. Martin responded

represented by Chas. Waters. He
dwelt upon the great unity that
had characterized the class during
the whole of the year and besought
the sophomores TO take TO heart the
example set for their instruction.
Boyd Collins responded for the
Sophomore class in a well set
speech bidding farewell to the
Seniors and calling the Freshmen to
their place. Raymon Johnson of
the Freshman class in a brilliant
speech lost himself TO the extent
OF saying Inadvertently that he was
senior, but judiciously recovered
himself by explaining that he look
ed so much like a Senior that ~
made him forget that he was a real
living Sophomore. Miss Catherine
Haley spoke for the Academy SEN
iors. She voiced regrets at leaving
the Faculty of their last four years,

of the Academy graduating class

The family must needs depend on
the people from the Southern States
for cotton. The Northern and East
ern States furnish 10 the South the
finished materials in return for the
raw sent into the North. Every
state or section of the country de-
pends on the other states for mar
kets or materials. Central America
sends bananas and cocoa. In the
Northern factories the factory own
ers look TO Central and South Amerl-
ca for rubber. The different parts
of machines or any manufactured
article comes, or may come. from "a
many different sections Of the coun-
try. Through trade the nations are
tied together.
All men are dependent on other
men. Authors and composers de-
pend on the people who will buy
their productions. The minister
must satisfy the wants of the con-
gregation. The retailer must de-
pend on the railroad employees to de-
liver their merchandise TO them. The
merchant depends on the
fruit growers or farmers. the fac

pend on factory for his improved
Nation depends upon nation. I'm
til the war came, we bought practi-
cally all our dyes from Germany.
We depend largely on other nations

same is true of all other dishes. We
