about "The Hill" or we can contribute
to the better furnishing of Alumni
Hall and thus help provide a place
for "old boys" who desire to reviBit the
old place, but who may have no special
invitation from any resident of "The

But the beat thing we can do for the

Austin College has many claims to
distinction. It Is the oldest of the Synod's
Educational institutions and has >*a
history full of "ups and downs." For
many years now the record has shown
steady onward and upward progress. In
this respect the session just closed
marks the best year in its history.
The Commencement exercises began
with a sermon by Rev. D. N. McLaughlin,
paator of the First Southern Presbyterian
church of Austin. The sermon
seemed to have made a profound impression
upon all who heard it. In the
evening of the same day the sermon before
the Y. M. C. A. was preached by
Rev. W. M. Lewis of Nav*asota and here
again the choice of preachers was eminently
appropriate.
On Monday evening occurred the an
nual declamatory contest and on Tuesday
evening the College Band and Glee
Olub united to give a concert, which was
enjoyed by the large audience and gave
evidence not only that the young men
possessed unusual musical talent but
that they had been very carefully "and
efficiently trainedThe
Baccalaureate address was delivered
to the graduating class by Rev.
Wim. M. Anderson, D. D., pastor of the
First Presbyteriten church of Dallas,
Texas and President of the Board of
Trustees- His theme was "Gunnery,"
which he defined as being "all about
guns." In Ms own, charming and inimitable
style he gave to the young men
some helpful and wholesome suggestions
for life.
This commencement was especially
noteworthy for several reasons. For one
thing the graduating class was tbe largest
that has ever gone out at any one
time. Twenty-two received degrees; two
Master of Arts, nineteen Bachelor of
Arts and One Bachelor of Science. They
were la splendid body of young men and
a prophecy of what may be expected
from this old school in the davs to come

to enter the ministry and at least
ten of them will enter Austin Seminary

thoroughly Informed as to the Improvements
that frave been made In recent
years, and as to the splendid work being
done there, so that we may be in
position to advise young men as to the
many advantages to be derived from
graduation from Hampden-Sldney.
avery nourishing college in the land
should have a strong, well organized,
alumni association, and It shall be our
utmost effort to make the HampdenSldney
Alumni Association one of the
strongest |and the best.
I hope that every alumnus, reading
this, will write to me at once, authorizing
me to enroll his name as a member
of the association and making such suggestions
for the good of the College as
he may think best.
Yours for Hampden-Sldney,
Charles D. McKdnney.

P. S.?Remember that every man who
has enrolled in the college and has left
it, whether graduated or not, every
member of the faculty and every member
of the bofard of trustees, past or
present, is an alumnus and entitled to
membership in the Association.

gestive fact as it bears on the place that
this school should have in the thought
and plans of the church In Texas.
Again, the year was marked by the
largest enrollment ever reached by the
College. Two hundred and sixteen matriculated
during the year. Something
like seventy-five per cent of these were
in the College Classes proper and their
work gave evidence of a real desire to
improve their opportunities.
The Board of Trustees met on Tuesday
afternoon the 29th- The reports that
came into their hands Indicated that
every department of the school was in
excellent condition. It is very evident
that President Clyce and his able and
efficient corps of assistants have the situation
well in hand. The management
of the dormitory, Luckett Hall, has been
thoroughly satisfactory and will be continued
on the same basis for the ensuing
year.
Work has been resumed on the new Y.
M. C. A. building and it is the hope of
those in charge that it can be pushed to
completion this summer. Austin College
was the first institution in the State to
undertake to erect a Y. M. C. A. building
and by all means, it ought to have
the credit and satisfaction of completing
the first one. But it will be outstripped,
unless it hustles. More important than
that, the room that it will afford is very
badly needed. If the enrollment continues
to increase as expected, there
will be urgent need for more dormitory
and more class room accommodations.
But perhaps the most noteworthy feature
of all was the announcement tn tha
Board by Dr. R. E. Vinson, that the fund
of $250,000 had been subscribed for the
educational work of the Synod. When
the college gets Its share of this fund its
pressing financial burdens will be removed
and it will be possible for the
Board to plan for enlarging and extending
their work as it cannot under present
condition. The Board adopted resolutions
expressive of its gratitude to
God for His blessing on this movement and
its appreciation of the consecration
and devotion shown by Dr. Vinson and
the Committee having the work In
charge.
This achievement is a remarkable one

A lady writes from Brookline, Mass.:
"A package of Postum was sent me

there was no coffee for breakfast next

and I would have a mutiny on my hands
should I omit the beloved beverage.
"My husband used to have a very
delicate stomach while we were using
coffee but to our surprise his stomach
has grown strong and entirely well
since we quit coffee and have been on
Postum.
