After luncheon come the Pageant
Of the Mountains in the Tabernacle.
Ut had been rendered also Thursday
evening, and on Thursday there had
been mountain excursions for guests
and meeting Of the Trustees).
The Banquet at night had to be
restricted as to numbers, as the
largest dining-room accommodates
only 200. The after-dinner speeches
were Of very high order. The var
ious college presidents who spoke
dwelt upon the trials and burdens
of the position. Prof. H. M. Jones,
formerly Berea worker, referred
to this "drubbing" as a kind Of Gin
itiation." And he dwelt upon his own
great confusion in returning to an
expanded Berea in which he could not
even find the house in which he for
merly lived, nor such old landmarks
as the Richmond pike! We thought
even the college presidents were sur
passed by our own graduates, Rev.
Elmer Gabbard and Ilene Houser.
Following the banquet was a gen.
eral reception, and then Goodnight"
on the Library steps, with songs, the
sweet and grand chimes from the
Chapel tower, and benediction by
President Hutchins.
The Mountain Conference Satur-
day morning was a most important
part of the Inauguration proceedings.
We hope to publish some of the ad-
dresses later. Those by Prof. H. n.
Clark, of the University of Tennes-
see, President King of Oberlin, Miss
Berry, of Georgia, and Mrs. Mary
Sloop Of Crossnore, N. c., were par
ticularly notable.
Quite aside from the formal ex-
ercises, the Inauguration was marked
by return visits from many former
Berea workers and students, whose
names you will find in the list of
College guests, and countless unof-
fetal reunions and Inequalities.
One of these was supper at Tavern,
given by Mrs. Dodge, Miss Morrow.
and others, in honor of Prof. and
Mrs. Mason, Prof. H. NJ. Jones, and
Mrs. Josephene Robinson Rowe, now
of Syracuse. She was for some
years Dean of Women and Professor
of Mathematics. One fall she con-
fided to President and Mrs. Frost
that she was engaged to be married
to the Professor of Mathematics Of
Syracuse University. Her great
secret was actually kept, a successor
secured, and her marriage accom-
plished in the middle of the school
year, without exciting suspicion I'M
til the wedding day.
And now let us pray that the high
purposes and inspiring outlook that
were born in these great hours may
abide as a permanent handspring Of
action in every heart.

Greeted by Representatives of Fifty Schools
Gives Keynote Address

was wholly unable to accommodate
the throng. AS the two lines fell
apart, those from the rear passed
through, first the new President and
the old, then the trustees, then the
delegates from sister institutions,
then the invited guests, and then the
department faculties and students in
their order-College, Normal, Acad-
envy, Vocational and Foundation.
After the Chapel was filled the
delegates from sister institutions
were presented, beginning with Har-
ward, and going on according to the
age of the institution. Each dele
gate was introduced by DR.. Robert
son, and greeted by few appropri-
ate words by the Chairman, DIR. VIM
f, Barton, Vice President of the
Board of Trustees. His references
to the history and characteristics of
the different institutions were of
great interest, and often brilliant
and witty.
After the Hallelujah chorus, and
prayer by Professor Lyman Of Union
Theological Seminary, there was an
address of welcome to the delegates
by Professor Raine, with a response
by President King of Oberlin, both
of which we give in full.
A letter of greeting was read from
Governor Morrow.
President McVey, Of Kentucky
State University, gave a most cor
dial and brilliant address of welcome
to the new President in behalf of
the educational forces Of the State,
and Mayor Gay welcomed him in
well chosen words to the town Of
Berea.
The browning address of welcome
to the new President was, of course,
the welcome to Berea College by his
predecessor. This appears on an
other page just as it was given save
for the emotional thrill which so Of
ten accompanies President Frost's
public utterances. He spoke with
full voice and seemingly all his old
time vigor, and was frequently in
terrupted by applause.
At its close the handshake and en-
brace between the two Presidents
was a spontaneous action which can
never be forgotten by those who wit
messed it.
Then came the hymn, "All Hail
the Power of Jesus Name" and a
most uplifting prayer by the venera-
BILE DIR. r. G. Hutchins, pastor Of the
Berea Church and father of the new
President.
As President Hutchins rose for the
Inaugural Address, he was greeted
with applause, cheers, and a rising
salute from the entire audience.
The address was listened to with
rapt attention and applauded vigor-
ously during its progress and at its
conclusion. II appears in this num-

Those millions of men are men Of the same

What Kind Of Man.
Harding is big American in physical size.
thanks to vigorous farming ancestors. He Is
q big American also In heart, in understand
ing in sympathy and in simplicity.
You read his speeches and know that he
does not imagine himself created to tell all
the world what to do. He believes in, and
he understands the American people. his
friends, the citizens of his own little town,
, Marion, Ohio, and the jewellers in thousands
of other towns like it.
Your Servant, No Autocrat
After you have elected him. you will find
In Senator Harding an earnest. conscientious,
straight thinking servant Of the people, not an
autocrat, but a man respecting the traditions
Of American government. and the Constitu-
ton of the United States.
Senator Harding understands that the
people will elect him to be President Of the
United States, not President Of the whole
world. He will know that he Is employed
by the PEOPLE of this country to look after
the interests of THIS country.
Born on farm, living all his life close to
farmers he knows and sympathizes with the
problems of the farm. Living in the average
American way, in the average American
small town, he knows the problems of the
average American. He understands the
printers he employs, and he knows their trade
and sets type as they do.
His Ambition.
Senator Harding has no ambition to be
called a political superman. or RULER OF
America II is his ambition to be known as
that trust him.
