A IJEAUTIFUrj HOME MAKKIAGE.
On Wednesday morning, June 1st, at 10
o’clock, in the beautiful home of Mr. and
Mrs. F. N. Egerton, the bride’s parents.
Miss Blanche Wilmot Egerton became the
bride of Mr. George Speilcer Baker. The
parlors were beautifully decorated for the
occasion, and ’mid garlands of roses and
smilax the happy couple plighted their vows.
The sudden illness of the bride’s father on
the morning of the marriage made a quiet
marriage necessary, the only attendants be
ing Miss Mary Stuart Egerton, the maid of
honor, with Mr. Everard Baker, the brother
of the groom.

the largest number of subscribers will be

Commencement—what a world of dreams
hover about it! It is the Alpha and Omega
of certain phases of life; the fruition of many
fond hopes. Here school life ends—the les
sons all recited, and the sweet girl graduate
launches out into life’s school and begins to
learn the lessons that are really worth while.
^f to win the applause of men I must de
stroy another’s reputation, or discount an
other s worth in order to prove my own; if
to succeed M'ith my simple task I must tread
under foot the rights of others, God pity the
task and the success! Sooner let me fail in
the things that I seek, but with the sting of
defeat give me the recollections of a grateful
smile the simple “thank you” of one whose
wounds I have turned aside to bind up.

Raleigh Christian Advocate whose readers are
to be congratulated on the wise election of
Rev. L. S. Massey as editor.
Again the College loses three faithful mem
bers of the Faculty. Miss Tuttle, who filled
the vacancy caused by Miss Herring’s resigna
tion in January, goes to Martha Washington;
Miss Grant has been elected to teach in the
High School in Jackson, her home; and Miss
Davis has been given a year’s leave of ab
sence.
Since her connection with the College Miss
Tuttle has filled admirably the Chair of Eng
lish. Her versatility and strong personality
soon commanded the respect and affection of
the school, and her resignation is much re
gretted.
Miss Grant, whose picture appears on the
cover page witb the Senior Class, has been
connected with the College four years, begin
ning her work here with the class of 1910
Under her supervision the Science Depart
ment, though handicapped without a labora
tory, has done excellent work. But her in
fluence was not confined to her department—
she was conversant with every line of college
work and, therefore, a wise counsellor. The
College and the town have lost by her resig
nation.
Miss Davis, who has been connected with
the College since 1896, when her father as
sumed the duties of President, has not severed
