H. C. Buckholtz, oj Chester. The beautiful auditorium was thronged witli youth and beauty, old age and wisdom. The program was both beautiful and elaborate, it is sullicient to announce that Prof. Wade R. Brown had charge of the musical department of the program. The solo singing of Mrs. Brown was up to the high standard of which she is capable. The duet of Mrs. Brown and Miss Carroll was a treat, while the baritone solo and trio by Prof. Brown, Mrs. Brown, Miss Carroll and Miss Fort was exquisite enough to satisfy the most exacting. I'pon the platform was seated the graduating class, the members of the faculty and the ministers of the city. The program was so arranged as to employ the services of each minister prese t. Mr. Buckholtz se lected as Ins text these appropriate and beautiful words from the book of Esther: “And who knoweth whether thou art come to the king dom for such.a time us this.’' The theme was “The duty of the hour," and the preacher lost no opportunity to impress upon the young ladies of 'iit* graduating class the duties of the hour. In a clear and forceful man ner he pointed out to them the pos sibilities that lay before them and bid them grasp those opportunities. Tin? peroration was worthy of the man and the occasion. All in all it was one of the most appropriate baccalaureate sermons it has been our pleasure to listen to itf several years. Mr. Buckholtz has won the love and esteem of Gallney by his able discourses. The following is the class of nine teen hundred: Corrie A. ttmitb.A. B., President; Ray Macomson, S. B., Vice-President; Margaret A. -McKie. A. B., Secretary and Treasurer; An nie \V. Brown, S. B.; Claire * B. Brown, A. B.; Annie B.‘ Denny, A. lb; Violet P. Moorhead, fc>. B.; Maud B. Thompson, H. B.; Nancy E. Thompson, fc>. B.; Bertha J. Walker, S. B The following compose the gradu ate class: Virginia Bites, A. M.; Annie May Martin, A. M.; Delia Morgan, A. M. Graduate of the school of music: Addio V. McArthur. At 10 o’clock yesterday morning the annual meeting of the Alumnae As sociation of Limestone College was called to order by the president, Miss Mary E. McKie. After the reading of the minutes and the treasurer's report, the oili- cers for the following year were elected. These are Mrs. Clarke Waring, president; Miss Florence Griffith, re cording secretary; Mrs. Edna E. Harris, corresponding secretary; treasurer, Miss Alma E. Turner. The question arose as to the use of funds. It was decided to appropriate them for the support of the reading r join. Then resolutions were read, voting thanks to our retiring presi dent for her deep interest and faith ful and efficient services during the past year. Our meeting was made doubly interesting because of the presence of several members who were students here thirty, forty and lifty years ago. Mrs. A. C. Estes social ion with reminiscences of her school days under Dr. Curtis, and paid many beautiful tributes to his memory. Mrs. J. E. Harris and Mrs. Clark Waring compared the old Limestone with the new and made us feel, that although their youth, in years, was spent they were young in spirit and enthusiasm, to upbuild the cuujG oi their Alma Mater. Lust (veningat 8:30 Mrs. Clark Waring, of Columbia, delivered an address before the alumnae associa tion. Mrs. Waring has made quite a reputation in the literary world and is now actively engaged in literary pursuits. j he address last evening was full of interest to the friends of Limestone and showed that its au thor hud given her subject much ear nest consideration. Today is class day and will be full of intere t to till who may desire to attend the exercises, which begin ut P) a. m. Tomorrow the faculty of the college will hold ti reception and those who attend may indeed count themselves fortunate. Thursday evening at 8:5)0 the com mencement exercises proper will take place. Tho addressed will he deliv ered by Muj. John W. I'owell, LL. 1)., head of tho Bureau of American Ethnology, Washington, 1). C. The simple announcement of the depart ment with which Col. I'owell is con nect! d should be a sufficient guaran tee for those who have no knowledge of his ability. A charming feature of the com* menccmeut week exercises is the cor dial manner in which visitors are wel comed. Dr. Lodge warmly welcomes every one. He extends a cordial in vitation to everybody within reach to attend these exercises, and t von goes so fur as to extend a special Invita tion to the citizens of Gaffney. In a few n murks Sunday evening he im- ■prt sjed upon the people of Guilt ey the fact that Limestone was their college and that they were thrice welcome at all the public receptions and entertuimmiitb that took place there. A Hututlful Service. The union service in the Presbyte rian church Sunday morning was one of tho most beautiful ever held in Gaffney. The singing by the choir was all that could be desired. Prof. Johnson wielded the baton with grace and dignity, while Prof. West- rope’s deft fingers passed over the keys with such precision as to bring forth tones of the sweetest harmony. Mrs. Westrope delighted the congre gation with a beautiful solo, which was rendered in such style as to bet ter fit the worshippers for the treat that was in store for them iater on. The sermon was an idea! one and the preacher, Rev. H. C. Buckholz, of Chester, was in every sense of the word capable of the task he had set before him. He chose as his text these words: “Take heed how ye hear.” He began with a very clear, and at the same time, entertaining elucidation of the organ of hearing and for forty minutes attracted the most profound attention of his audi ence. The sermon was commented on by many and, by some, was pro nounced the best that had ever been delivered in Gaffney. KEitglits of Damon. A conclave of the K. of D. was or ganized here last Friday night, with thirty charter members. The following officers were elected: G. W. Cotton—Commander. T. Davenport — Vice-Commander. O. E. Wilkins—Prelate. J. C. H. Duff—Col. Sec. C. M. Smith—Treasurer. W. M. Grugg—Senior Warden. Russ Sparks—Junior Warden. J. W. Lipscomb—Sentry. C. A. Jefferies—M. J). SpiM-lul Com 111 ii meat ion.
