(tapinan and Miss Isobel Bunkley. lie recital was well attended and the umc pupils rendered selections credible t<> their teachers and school. He music department during the tai 11)26-1927 was handled admirlly and the public school music had uch to add to the entertainment and moral school spirit. Miss Bunkley id Mrs. Chapman will be with this ipartmerit of the school again anher year. The commencement proper began ith the annual sermon on Sunday riming by Dr. Richard T.

The address to the graduates, delivered by President arUale Campbell of Coker college, ;> one of the most beautiful liter y addresses ever delivered at com HBenremc/it in Camden. ^ ^ While the enrollment for the city Hr/iools did not increase materially ver that of the previous year, the verage attendance figures show that Hhe average daily attendance ap^fcroarhed fifty more per day during y926-1927 than for the previous year. J'his reflects credit upon the faculty Band school authorities because regliilar attendance is necessary for successful school work. The superintendent of schools, J. G. Richards, Jr., expresses the opinion that the past year's successful work is largely due to the corps of teachers. "I wish to take this opportunity to thank the patrons of the school for their co-operation and the I teachers for their earnest and painsIt aking work during the past year, land to state that the success has nost largely been due to the personnel of the faculty," said Mr. Richards Tuesday. He wishes also to express is deep appreciation ofvthe wonder ul set of silver goblets recently presented by the faculty and students of She city schools. I The summer school for grammer Bfrade students who failed on one or Bwo subjects will be run from Mon-' Bay, June 13, for six weeks. The Bchoid will be held in the old building ( Bn Laurens street and will be under' Bke direction o$ L. \V. McFadden, Bj:v L. T. Mills, and Mrs. S. C. Tay-1 r. Notices will be sent out to all [ ^^PtucJents who will be expected to take ^Phe summer work. No other pro- j vision will be made for passing off BNiis work, other than the summer H?chool except the entrance examin- j ation which will be required of those who do not attend.

June <> America's second ' ureal trans Atlantic flight ended to- ' i*y at Hot thus, 27 miles southeast of Berlin, when the BeHanca plane. < ol- ' tunbia, landed on the marshy ground ! i?t the Village of Klinge. j The propellor of the plane was , Token in the forced landing, which ' J|k made shortly before noon, by , Jkrence D. Chamborlin, the pilot, and ' rif companion, Charles A. Uvinc CJath escaped injury. The Columbia was located by one i, ?f the Lufthansa scouting planes from 'J 1 empelhofer, Berlin, at the moment I, I'hamberlin was making his forced ' | landing in the marshy meadow. I " I ( Housing Welcome in Berlin , Berlin, June 7.?Convoyed by fif-ji teen Gorman planes, the deafening! roar of whose motors rould hardly fj compete with the hoarse "hoehs" of the loO.OOO enthusiastic spectators j gathered in and around Tempelhofer j airdrome, Clarence D. Chamberlin and Charles A. Levine finally descended! upon Berlin in their Bellanca plane, I Columbia, this evening. It was a real welcome for the delayed airmen. The fact that the1 people of Berlin suffered a great disappointment Monday morning, when . the pane was expected, had nothing to do with the greeting given to the Americans when they arrived. I Crowds many times as large us had ' made the pilgrimage to the field the previous day spent all afternoon in' picnic fashion and spirited scanning of the sky for a glimpse of the ( olumbta. 1 he watchers crowded the airdrome to its capacity and lined up many rows deep along the fence inclosing the immense field. Yesterday's anxiety gave place to Happy confidence. The drowsy lassitude of those who had kept vigil all night turned to joyousness, and wan expressions gave way to laughing faces. A touch of carnival was added when aboUi > (i clock a brass band in gaudy flaming red Hussar uniforms, with gilded drapery,1 marched on to the ground and played American and German airs alternately. As on the day before, Berlin s huskiest and smartest police were on duty, keeping perfect order, though in their zealous efficiency sometimes causing annoyance to guests, such as the staffs of the American embassy and consulate, foreign diplomats and higher officials of the German and Prussian govern-1 ments, by frequent scrutiny of their admission cards. Excitement reached fever pitch' when the loud siren, which announces the arrival and departure of all the Lufthansa's aerial trains, gave three sonorous blasts, signifying that the air police on Templehofer conning tower had sighted the Columbia. Eager eyes, in thousands of cases aided by powerful binoculars, were strained to the eastward where, in the ! blue later afternoon sky small specks i became visible. Nearer and nearer i they approached; bigger and bigger,' they grew rapidly, until even the ! naked eye could pick out the yellowwinged Columbia. 1 As the American plane, with its honor guard of German planes, majestically soared over Te/npelhofer field, the crowd broke into wild cheers, waving American an^l German flags, clapping hands and throwing htfts in the air. The Bellanca plane, which everybody imagined, because jt~crossed the ocean, must be enormously large, seemed tiny among its larger German brothers, then for a few minutes the machines were out of sight again, for they flew over the city, to give the watching thousands there a chance to see the historic craft. The air fleet reappeared and made a big loop over the airdrome, then slowly descended, the Columbia striking the ground at 5:51. The crowd I tried Vainly to rush the police, but j even the invited guests were not perI knitted to penetrate the inner circle thrown around the Columbia, within which only the official welcoming party was admitted. Amid deafening hunahs and hoehs the Transatlantic fliers stepped out of the machine. The American ambassador, Jacob Gould Schurman, warmly clasped their hands. Then the German minister of economics, j Horr C urtius, who espec ially dwelt on the cul.ural value of the Columbia's expedition, thanked the airmen for placing this new boundary mark ol human ability on German <soil anc carving it indelibly on Gormar Vfc-* i , . ! hearts." Burgomaster Scholz felicitated j them rr "courageous sailors of the air and conquerors of the ocean." Ambassador Schurman then we'^ corned the aviators in formal words. .; He hailed them as messengers of good " will and friendship from the American people to the German people and ir.I vited them to be his guests at the i American embassy.
