ATTHE COLLEGE


Monday night was devoted to the
College. It's history, aims and future
were given fully while the history
of A. G.. C. was interesting and not
one to be ashamed of, but rather one
to be proud of, the future of A. c. G.
caught the attention of the students.
With a few comments, Norman
Brunson read the prophecy written
by Prof. Case last year. Many had
never read it, even those who had,
|enjoyed hearing it again for like all
good things it cannot be heard too
often. Unlike most prophecies, it is
not too good to be true. 1t must be
realized and the Hesperians have
faith in it's realizations.

SCARLET fever IS
STILL ON INCREASE
Bar on Public Gatherings More
Stringent if No Decrease
Within One Week.

Efforts 10 prevent the further
spread OF scarlet fever in this city

less the measures that have been
taken can show some diminution in
the number of cases existing. the gem
eral ban placed by the Board Of

time.
The records OF the Board OF Health
today show total OF 1874 cases of the
fever. an increase OF three since yes-
terday. Nine new cases were reported
yesterday and six recoveries. This
shows the fever still on the increase.
The health officials. however, are
still optimistic. They do not admit
that an epidemic exists. basing their
conclusions on the fact that 1874 cases
OF any disease, in a city with a popu-
lation of 10000 is not to be consider
ed as serious. Their present efforts.
however. are intended TO prevent the
outbreak from becoming epidemic.
They claim the ban established on
Wednesday morning has not been in
effect long Enough to show any real
results. They are hopeful that by
next "Wednesday there VIII have been
a very decided decrease in the number
Of fever cases in Wilmington. and if
