President Rufus W. Weaver gave
a satisfactory explanation for tus
two weeks absence, when he spoke to
the. students in chapel Tuesday. His
speech was mainly of Mercer and the
things that are to be here in the.near
future.
Dr. Weaver's first absence was. on
May 3rd, when he was attending the
Atlanta conference. Here, he tells
us, Mercer's interests were looked
out for, and that a report will be
made in a few weeks.
From Atlanta, Pres. Weaver went
to Washington, D. C. ;where he at
tended the meeting of the represen
tative universities of the nation. The
purpose of the meeting was to en-.
deavor to reach some agreement as
to what a standard college should be.
The United States, is divided up into D. Holbrook,
college conferences. J. H. Kirkland,,'Brantley. \N .
of Vanderbilt University, is presi
dent of the Southern conference.
On the list' of standard Southern
