The music, if anything, was an improvement on last year’s, with fine violin accompaniments thrown in for good measure.

The annual sermon by Rev. E. A. Campbell was excellend, as was also the address by Rev. Chaffee.

“Tendencies and Opportunities,” by R. M. Barns, was a perfect literary treat and was greeted by full house.

J. H. Heinrichs, journalist, of Indianapolis, and a member of the class of ’80, accompanied by his wife, came down to size up the crowd and have a good time. He did both.

George W. Smith, in the oratorical contest, received the first prize, $25; Ed Lee the second, $15, and Mrs. Wimmer, the third, $10.
