Alumni who were on hand.

Alumni who were on hand.
The old campus of Delaware Col
lege never looked more fitted to the
occasion than it was on Monday. At
ter an intensely warm spell the
weather on Monday was balmy and
in the shade of the old campus trees
there was a stimulating breeze.
In the absence of DR.. Hullihen,
Dean Smith acted as president and
presided over the exercises and also
conferred the degrees on the class.
DR.. George A. Harter presented the
candidates for degrees of the Arts
and Science Department; Professor
V. G. Smith, those of the Engineering
Department, and Dean Charles A.
McCue those of the Agriculture De-
partment. The prizes for various ac-
complishments during the year were
presented by Professor Elisha Con-
| over.
Colonel Thomas w. Miller, Alien
Property Custodian, occupied a place
on the platform and presented to
number of the graduates their COM
missions as second lieuterants in the
Reserve Officers Corps, which they
won as members of the R. o. T. G.
| After these exercises the luncheon
was given in Old College. The next
event of interest on the days pro-
gram was the laying Of the corner
stone of the Sigma Phi Epsilon Fra
ternity House on the Upper Campus.
At 8 o'clock in the afternoon Dean
Winifred Robinson led the academic
procession of the Women's College to
Red Mems Grove, where the Com
mencement exercises of this branch of
e the institution were held. One of the
4 features of these exercises was the

Annual Farmers Day
On August 3rd
Dean McCue Will Start Work on
Program Next Week-Expect
1000 Visitors

perimental Farm and Experiment
Station will be busy in short time
now making arrangements for the
Annual Farmers Day Meeting, which
this year will be held on August 3rd.
Dean McCue announced today that
this is the date that has been fixed
for this annual event this year. Fur
ther arrangements for the event will
be made in all probability by next
week after the return of Dean Nc
Cue from an orchard inspection trip
through Virginia and West Virginia.
With the excellent roads that now
reach Newark from all parts of the
State it is expected that there will be
at least 200 farmers on hand for the
affair. The farmers as a rule are
taking more interest every year in
the resources which the State Univer-
sity has to offer them in the way of
assistance for the betterment of farm
crops, live stock and general farm
conditions.
The work of entertaining and in
structing the farmers who attend will
be worked out by Dean McCue and
an excellent program will be arrang-
ed for the occasion, the summer agri.
culture event of the year in Delaware
It is expected that as in previous
years the experimental work of tn,
college, including farm crops, Or
chards, small fruits, live stock, etc.
will be labeled in such a way tina
visitors may learn the work bein,
conducted for their benefit and tn
results to date Of such experimental
2 work. 1t is thought that the farr
crops, particularly corn and so
beans, will be in ideal shape to shoy
the results of various treatments O
D fertilizers, manure and the effect O
crop rotations. 1t is expected tina
t there will be a great deal of interes
in the soy bean crop, inasmuch a
!, there is a great number of thes
" beans being raised by the farmers i
e all parts of the State this year.
d An interesting feature of the affa
Il will be the demonstration conducte
k by the men of the Rehabilitation D
n vision. The "boys" of this depar
e ment take great interest in their agr
culture work and many excellent plo
= have resulted from their efforts.
Although the plans have not y
, been worked out it is expected tn
=, the three County Farm Burear
IL through their various communiti
will organize automobile parties

Large Crowds Attracted
By Delaware Commencement
Fifty-three Young Men and Twentyfcur Young Women
Craduate-Senator Lenroot and Prot. Reed
The Speakers
Many Former Students Honor Alma Mater

Nature could not have been better
to Delaware College or the Women's
College than she was on Monday, the
day of the Commencement Exercises
of these two institutions. There was an
abundance of golden sunshine to greet
the many visitors who were on hand
for these exercises. This was the fifty
second commencement of the institu-
ton and it has been long time since
there was a larger audience on hand
for the event.
1t was a problem for the late ar
rivals to find a place close enough to
the speakers to hear their words and
many of those present travelled miles
to rejoin his and her Alma Mater in
the exercises of the year.
United States Senator Irwin L.
Lenroot, Of Wisconsin, was the
speaker at the Delaware College ex'
ercises held on the college campus ir
the morning, and Professor Amy L
Reed of Vassar College, was thu
speaker at the Women's College even
held in the Red Mems Grove, in th'
afternoon.
There were fifty-three young mel
graduated from Delaware College an
twenty-four young ladies from tn
Women's College.
Exercises at Delaware Colleg
started shortly after 1870 o'cloc
with the academic procession led b
Dean Edward Laurence Smith. d.
Walter Hullihen, president Of tn
, University, was unable to take pal
in the exercises because of his recer
, attack of illness.
1t was an impressive sight to st
the graduates, in their gowns, marc
to their seats, and it brought bac

these alleys has been provided for in
the plans of the building.
The main floor will have two en-
frances, one for each of the engines
of the local company. There will also
be on this floor, washrooms, toilets
locker rooms and shower baths.
On the second floor there will be .

ment of three rooms and bath for the
caretaker, hose tower, toilets, ant
private offices for the secretary of th'
: company.
In the front of the building ther

Charles Hubert Arranges Free

cellent Court Scene

The students of the Newark High
School were royalty entertained by
Charles Hubert, manager of the New
ark Opera House, last Friday when
he gave free showing of the motion
picture, "Silas Mariner" "Silas Mar
ner" is one of the classics studied by
English students at the High School
and Mr.. Hubert thought that it would
be an excellent picture for the STU
dents to see and he therefore invited
them to attend the showing Of the pic
ture at a specially arranged matinee.
Another feature of the afternoon
was the presenting of the court scene
from the Merchant of Venice by the
students of the first year in the High
School. The stage of the Opera
House was fittingly set for the scene
and the customs were obtained from
the University Of Delaware.
The students made an excellent
showing in the scene and were it no
so close to the end of the school tern
there is probability that publi
showing of the scene would be held.
