mencement came to a close here'
tonight with the Alumni Banquet
In the college dining hall, xtfhlch
followed Immediately upon the
Alumni Address by Mrs, J. K.
Ruebuah, Dayton, Va., whose
theme was Universal Democracy.
The commencement began last

day exercises of the' class of 1913,
a most enjoyable occasion, filled
with good spirit and fine fun.
Dr. Warren H. Denison, Nor
folk, Va., gave the baccalaureate
sermon on Sunday morning,
preaching on Life's Great Rule,
the theme being Devoted Service.
President Harper that evening de
livered the baccalaureate address
and apoke of present day educa
tional problems, usjng as his sub
ject The Ingredients of True Liv
ing.
The Society Representatives on

deserving the fine praise they re
ceived their essays and orations
delighting the vast concourse of
people who had assembled to hear
them.
Dr. Charles W. Kent of the Uni
versity of Virginia on Tuesday

pleasure.
The Expression Recital that af
ternoon and the Annual Musical
Concert were largely attended and
thoroughly enjoyed. The Music
Department enrolled Just about 100
pupils this year. The Art Exhib
it was also excellent.
But the great' event was grad
uation day on Wednesday morning
when S3 persons received degrees,
diplomas, and certificates, the
largest -number so honored at any
one time here.
In all the departments this year
the College enrolled 368 students,
from 13 States, and more than 100
counties.

Health And Hygiene.
Hot Weither Hygiene.
First of all be clean. Keep
clean, iniide and out. A daily
bath is Just aa essential aa the
daily breakfait, if not more so.
An all-over bath in the morning
a#d a sponge bath at night are
none too much. The morning
bath will put you in good condi
tion for the day's work, and a
cool sponge bath at night will en
able you to aleep better.
Drink plenty of water, but don't
drink ice water to excess. Most
aoda fountain beverages are pala
table and harmless, but being
aweetened they tend to produce
thirst. Just plain, clean, cold
water is the beat of all summer
drinks.
Excesses of all kinds should be
avoided. If you any regard
for your physical welfare, shun
over indulgence in alcoholic
drinks.
Aa to what to eat and how
much t oeat In summer—too mqch
Is worse than none at all. Re
member that a meat diet is heat
ing. Most people eat too much
meat, any way. Cut It out, and
cut down expenses. Eat ripe
fruit, but' don't let it be over
ripe. Bat vegetables well cooked,
Dont Indulge in rich, heavy pas
tries. .
Heat has killed more people
than cold—therefore, dress light
ly. Don't wear heavy clothing.
Dont follow the fashion unless
faahion prescribes light, cool gar
ments.
Last, dont hurry. Start a lit
tle sooner and you wont have to
'run.
Bishop Horiier of Ashevllle last
week appealed to the President to
commute the sentence, of William
B. Breese, convicted of a viola
tion of the National banking laws
at Asheville. The President took
the case under advisement. Gov-;
ernor Craig, former Gov. Olenn
and Senator Simmons, have ap
pealed to the President in behalf
of Breese .

indicted for soliciting and receiv

was convicted and fined |4 and
