In his death the Lackawanna

Therefore, we, the members of
the Lackaw'anna County Bloomsburg State Normal School Alumni

reunion now assembled, feel that it
is only fitting and proper that we
thus acknowledge the loss of such
a friend and fellow alumnus as David Owens, and we take this means
of expressing our sorrow at his
death, and extending our heartfelt
sympathy to his wife and parents;
and w'e also request that a copy of
this testimonial of our deep respect

and direct that a copy be sent to his

BACCALAUREATE .SERMON.
The fortieth annual commencement week opened on Sunday afternoon at 3 o’clock, w'hen Dr. D.
J. Waller preached the baccalaureate

sermon

to the

graduating

class,

in the auditorium.

His text was the second verse of
tw'elfth chapter of Romans,
“And be not conformed to this
world, but be 3’e transformed by
the renewing of 3'our mind, that 3-0
may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God.”
The theme was “Ideals,” and
the address abounded in good
the

.

common

sense.
