embrace the op-

last term and also of their plans for
the future.
The Reunion held February 2 2d
was an unusually pleasant occasion.
Of course many of the old students
were back to attend the meeting in
Callie Hall in the forenoon, to participate in the festivities of the afternoon and witness the delightful
portrayal of the “Taming of the
Shrew” in the chapel the same
evening.
The rendering of the
drama was exceedingly well done,
all members of the cast deserving

commendation

for their efforts, due
chiefly to the ability and management of Miss Fiske.
Our members of the Alumni who
have the interest of the society at
heart will be gratified to learn that
