BLESSED RY A BULL EloHr.


Jane Adams went once TO a bull
fight in Spain. She saw five buiis
killed and as many horses. When her
friends expressed their surprise at her
indifference to the bloody sport, she
said she had not thought much about
it. Then she began to think. The
more she thought, the more her con-
science troubled her. She had been
contemplating. engaging in some form
Of social work. 1t suddenly was i'm
pressed upon her that she had been

ALUMNI DAY At THE
IDAHO UNIVERSITY
LAST DAY OF SCHOOL YEAR
BEFORE COMMENCEMENT HAD
MANY PLEASANT FEATURES.

June 7, 1921-It is the afternoon of
a day ideal in it's beauty. Great
preparations are being made on the
campus, for the 1921 commencement.
The leaves rustled low murmur to
the zephyrs that sighed into silence.
The odor of sweet flowers was borne
on great fragrant waves to and fro
through the air, as the Senior girls
with their mothers and sisters met at
Ridenbaugh Hall to enjoy short time
together. Miss Murray delighted them
with short dancing program, after
which delicious refreshments were
daintily served.
But Time is ever silently turning
over his pages" we are too much en-
crossed by the story of the future to
dwell long on the past and present
Thus we hasten to Llndey hall, at 3
o'clock to attend the alumni banquet.
Here we find more than 80 alumnus
assembled and enjoying gloriously
good time. Glasses as far back as
1899 were represented.
In A. j. Priest as POSTMASTER at
this banquet, we see young man
earnest in purpose, and you felt that
herein was soul awake to all life's
great realities.
The toasts were responded to by
Miss Wiley, Of the 1921 class, Guy
Holman of China; Miss Permeal
French, Dean of Women; DR.. E. A.
Bryan, Dean E. M Hume, DR.. A. H.
Upham, and Gainford P. Mix. The
banquet closed with Idaho songs.
From here we hasten to the presi-
dents reception at Ridenbaugh hall.
Here we meet students new and old,
and as we look back over he vista of
years. we note wonderful change in
the buildings and grounds of the dear
old U. of l. since her doors were first
opened, on the morning Of October
3rd, 1892. But in the student life we
see mch the same problems and acti-
vities
In the receiving line Tuesday eve
ming were President and Mrs. A. H.
Upham, Mr.. and Mrs. Edgar L. Piper,
Dean and Mrs, E. M. Hulme, Dean E.
Butler, Dean P. French, DR.. E. A.
Bryan, and the four senior class Off
GERS. H. E. Hosier, Fred Frad, Jean
and Robert E. Johannesen.
From this reception we hasten to
the gymnasium where the alumni
dance which is largely attended. AS
all things beautiful in life soon fade,
so our rarest pleasures pass by the
evanescent fleetness, leaving but a
