the West yet glimmered with a few

wendling their ways to the Piedmont
Institute, and at an early hour the
Comnencement lHall was full and run

ence was a tastefully arraligel stage,
auid just as the hantds of the watch
reached 7:30 the cuir'taini rose and about
one hulndrel stars in the McCashin

briglhtlnes to the cha:<deliers and wairb
