meals and the delightful big fire.

throughout the day.
A delicious luncheon was served
on the long tables decorated with
The college colors. Between cours-
es they were entertained with mu-
sic, and speeches or the reading Of
letters from those who could not
be present. Later at the business
meeting a regular organization
was perfected to carry out the
plans of the association for the
coming year.
Among those present who for
50 many years were identified
with the college and who assisted
in making this years reunion such
an enjoyable one were; Prof. A..
c. Jones formerly president of the
institution but now of Vancouver,
B. c., Col. c. e. Patterson, Port
land, Ore, Mrs. A. Sutter, Tacoma,
Mrs. Ada McKensie Mccoy of San

Vashon College at Burton, was
for years one of the foremost edu-
cational institutions on Puget
Sound and during that time turn
ed out hundreds Of graduates,
many of them now are numbered
among the leading professional
and business men and women of
the West. Its coming to Burton
was great factor in the upbuild-
ing Of the island and it was the
center of the social and education
al activities of that time. Its
classes were always open to any
boy or girl who desired an educa-
ton and those who were not fl
nancially able to attend were as
sisted to feel independent by
working their way until they were
self supporting.
This spirit of loving help and
personal interest that was the
leading note Of the college is one
of many reasons why all the stu
dents hold such fond remembran-
ces of the old school and are eager
each year to once again live over
those days by greeting their for
mer classmates and instructors at
these yearly reunions held on or
near the old college grounds at
Burton.

HAMILTON HOLT SAYS
 COOLIDGE MUST LEAD

Hamilton Holt of Eoodstoek. for- mer Democratic candidate for the United States Senate, believes that the entrance of America into the world court depends largely on az gressive leadership from President Coolidge.
 The anzwer to the question, he said in Hartford ThursdaE. .'appar- entiy lies i'd the hollow of President Cooiidge's hards. 1T he makes a real aggressive fight, the lukewarm Re- publican Senators will doubtless fail in line But Mir Coolidge is no cru sader. as Wilsou and Roosevelt were. He does not trJ tO force his ideas on Congress or the country. 1T, as seems likely, he takes his usual moderate course, publicly supporting the court but ieaving ths. rest t0 the Senate, then the fate of ths court is in the lap of tits gods.
 ''The Republicans are split m two One faction will stay regular and fol. low the President. The Senators of this group have no leader worthy of the name 10 direct the fight on the floor or to be their spokesman before the public. So far as the court is concerned they are undoubtedly more interested in party morale than n world morality"
