Arab mtr lag SUDDENLY (jpened my eyes and wdiidered why I was so anxious to crawl out of my warm bed on such a cold morning, which was such a contrast to all other days, when nothing but roll calls could drive me from my covers. IJut why this sudden change? Was this not Monday morning, Novemljer 13, V , the day set aside as Academic day, known to all of us as the one hundred and fourth birthday anniversary of our dear old University? Was this not the day when all lectures were suspended and the only (lav during the year that the various departments gather together for one grand celebration ? These were the reasons that prompted me to c|uickly slip on my clothes and n ake the short trip to University with a new spirit and in about one half the usual time. As I was Hearing the campus, 1 could hear the chorus of the ditTerent deijartments wdiich made my heart leap for jov, and upon my arrival, I found the ca ' .n])us swarmed with students, the most attractive being the neat uniformed cadets of St. John ' s College, ' headed l)y its band, of which we are all proud, for the mu ic seenied to make the college s|)irit sink deeper into our hearts. After exchanging our cheers we all adjourned to the various lecture halls, awaiting the call to proceed to the Westminster Presbyterian Church, where the exercises were held at 10.30 A. M. About 1,000 students started the march up Greene Street to the Church, headed by St. John ' s P and. The order of the march was as follows: St. John ' s — Department of Medicine, Law, Dentistry and Pharmacy, each class being headed by their much loved class banner. Next in line came the chancellor and officers of the Uni- versity, guests of honor. Faculty and Alumni, all garbed in their beautiful academic cos- tumes of velvet and satin. As we entered the cliurch the organist was playing the Triumphal March of Entry from Pienzi, and the vaulted arches of the old church were filled with martial music. After the innovation 1) - the i:)astor. Rev. Thomas Ckier Koontz, a (|uartet composed of the most noted singers of the city sang the 123rd Psalm. They also rendered several selec- tions during the exercises. Provost Reinard Carter being absent, due to illness, the greeting was delivered by Thomas Fell, of St. John ' s, who then introduced the speaker of the day, Dr. C. Alphon.so Smith, Professor of English at the University of ' irginia, Edgar Allan Poe. Dr. Smith conveyed to us the ex] ression of good feeling from the students of his college and then delivered an excellent address upon Poe as a Constructive Power in World Literature. After Dr. Smith ' s excellent talk, our own stately Prof. John C. Hem- meter paid a glowing tribute to Dr. Smith, and then in a very flowery flow of language, on behalf of the student body of our University, presented to St. John ' s College a large oil painting of the L niversitv buildings. 40 l y 60 inches, which was an excellent picture of our dear old school. 15
