The commencement exercises of
| the M. G. were continued Sunday at
500 p. M, at which time DR.. H. C.
Morrison, of Asbury College, preach
ed the missionary sermon to the Col
at the same time centenary SER
4
NJ. E. Church, South, was on. The
sermon was preceded by good mu-
steal program. The address was all
that could be expected and in many
respects surpassed his baccalureate
sermon of the morning. Monday at
| 1890 a. M, Glass Day exercises were
held on the campus OF the M. c.,
which was made up of many inter-
esting features, the winding Of the
May-Pole, and the burial of the books
by the Seniors, were among the
many interesting features of the ex-
ercises. Monday at 2:30 p. M,
Tennis Tournament was enjoyed on
the tennis ground of the college,
which also proved interesting. Mon
day at 8:15 D. m, the annual con-
cert in the Nj. c.. Auditorium, which
was fully up to the average, while
it was classic, was enjoyed by large
audience.
Tuesday at 1890 a. m, the an
nual commencement exercises were
conducted in the M. c. Auditorium, at
which time the Glass Of 1919 took
their degree. A pleasing musical
program was rendered, after which
Rev. Moss, of the NichOlaSville
Methodist church, delivered the bac
calaureate address, dealing largely
with the problems, the opportunities
and responsibilities of to-day. The
address was full of thought and
there was much in it that will al
ways be retained by those who heard
it, At the close of the address DR..
Fisher awarded the diplomas, an
Inouncing the honor roll.
On Sunday morning DR.. Fisher
stated that he would have something
to say concerning the consolidated
school problem now confronting Mil
lersburg Many were anxious to
hear his views on this subject. He
said he had been an educator for
thirty nine years, and it was needless
to say that he was deeply interest
ed in the cause of education, that
Millersburg ought to have a better
school building with more commo-
diouS grounds, to accommodate the
needs and requirements of the chill
dren, but that we did not need a
consolidated school. The country
school ought to be put in good condi-
| ton, teachers to be employed at
better salary to do the work. That
| d
coupled with the High School would
entail a heavy expense, the children
would have to get out early in the
morning, and could not return to
their homes until late in the after
noon, and most of the parents pre-
ferred having their younger children
in the neighborhood schools. We do
not need a High School, the High
School work can be done by the NJ.
C. and M. M. l. at much less eX-
pense than be operating one, under
the proposed system. At noon the
NJ. c. closed to reopen next Septem-
Der, many of the student body leav-
ing for their homes in the afternoon
and evening, the remainder Wednes-
day morning. A large number of
visitors were guests at the College.
