The wideiing of Friend street on eithei side and extending it to Cal houn street will make it one of the prettiest bouvelards in the city and the only street near the business see tion in which residences may be built that will be 'both near and also quiet. From Adams street to Calhoun there is rio house on either side except Mrs. Cook4's which is on the corner of Adams and Friend street.

At lem t hiis i'e c'ream in Nea poilit an blocks was seived w ih enke which was followed by thle entstomiar.1 coffee andi eheese. Now caime thle most enijoyab)le pari of the whole affair. Mr. Fred S Long, 08, toastmaster, made a fev well chosen remarks and introduce< Mr. V. B. Sease, 'O8, wvith the toast "'To Our Guests, the Class of 1907.' Mr. Sease acquitted himself well in few words of welcome and was fol lowed by Mr. W. F. Hipp, '07, whc in his usual pleasant way, thanke, the juniors ofr their hospitality Mr. E. HI. Rawi, 'O8, made a very ar propriate toast, ''To the Faculty, and -was answered by Dr. A. J. Bon era in a short speech in his usu11 flnent witty style. Mr. 0. C. Kiblea '07, in a toast, "The Scarlet and Sil ver Gray," fired all present with a love of old Newberry college. Mr. IL U. Goggans, '08, gave a toast, "To the Coeds," and certainly gave it well, he had the undivided atteltion of the body. Dr. Geo. B. Cromer, the ex-president of Newborry,' was called on for a speech, which was given in. anl enjoyable and instructive manner. Tro conclude the speaking,. -Mr. I. E. long, '08, in a few words bade "Fare. well" for the class of 1907. After this the feasters left the tab lei and enjoyed themselves in various ways and merriment reigned supreme. The cares and sorrows of college were forgetton, and all seemed to enjoy themselves. Then all departed after what was pronounced the best ban quet held yet. -Much of the success of the affair is the credit of the young ladies of the Presbyterian church, whose dainty preparations were crowned nost eompletely with sue Rev. J. L. Williamson. The deati, Friday, 4.30, -i. i., of liev. .1. L. Williamson, has removed 40nie of singular piety, of consecrated mind, of earnest Christian life. Nay, more, there has gone froi among') us, a mnan of largest charity, of unselfish devotion to every cause that 1 makes Io. ti uplitl o linial souls. These attrihites o' elharacter. that Imlade him a lion for tile right and an ;nemy without guile to all that was wrong and base, may not have been known and appreciated by every one, for Mr. Williamson, while fearless, wxas not hoisteronls and noisy and was iot. could not have been fully under .tood, except by those who knew him intimately and asstociated with him elosely. It, was my privilege and joy to work olosely with him during the ten years of his ministry here as pas tor of Aveleigh Presbyterian church, and it was long since a conviction with ine that as minister, Mr. Wil lianison fully netithe requirements that should obt ain-hetween paster and peo ple. Ile was always to be depended ilpo in i his relationship to the Sun lay school, not simply dropping in 01casionally. but attenling with re -tlarity every sess-;ion except when h611.1-it-le 1 absencev or illness. His 4Y.alty to the other activities of the oliurch were not less marked. As a weacher', a sermionzer, Mr. Williamson was at. his best, and he always seemetd to me that lie loved to Preach, which lie did with accurate preparation and unquestioned une tion and force. lie always declared the 'full counsel of God,'holding up to his hearers the inimitable example of the Christ whom he loved and wor shiled. Mr. Williamson's preaching was never tinctured with false doe triine, nor marred with the "modern eriticisms''-he was absolutely ortho dox, holding aloft and presenting with :It tiie;s wonderful force and beauty, lit hianner of the Cr'oss. liis sermnons were tipliftinlg and in spiring and the convictions which Itey undlloubtedlly cr'eated in the minds fhIns l Stisenes will surely~ Iinger' as a benison1 andl i ctn t i ve to hiigher and :mreor l ivini. Morei'~ than thIiis, lie was a Ia ir man and just and netver (chose the. advantage which a right position 1sntaanteedl to uise it to) the unditoinig 1 have served on many occasions with Mr. Williamson at Presbytery and Synotd andit felt a thr ill of p)ridle ::ot inf requienitly whien his c'ounsels were found to be the best and to be respected and followed by his broth On points of eccle'siastical law and evidence he was unsurpassed as a P'resbyter. Ile was a loving parent and devoted husband and father, an ea1rnest chr'istian, a pulic spirited cit/izon and the embodiment of hion esty in its strictest sense. May I not say, Alas! Alas! that one of his type could not longer be sp)ared to his fam ily, his lar'gc circle of frends and ad tmiers anid to the church which he se'rved so fithI ifully. W. E. Pelham. ELECTION NOTICE.
