The committee spared nothing inmaking this one of the most delightful treats of the scholastic year

The supper was interspersed with aunique and instructive MrJ E Roundtree presided with suchskill and precision that he at oncetakes rank among our best toastmasters and parliamentarians

During the first course of the repastwhich included bisque of clams aux

la Julienne and Roman punch MrJohn W Robinson in an addressmade a vivid comparison of ancientand modern history in treating thesubject Why We Are Here AndAir E Dunn with equal zeal-and enthusiasm discussed in a mostscholarly manner The RelativeMerits of the Quiz and Lecture Alethods of Teaching Law

During the second course whichconsisted of chicken croquets Frenchpeas and potatoes Mr PC Reed received great applause whilediscussing the subject Negro Law-yer and His Relation to AmericanLife Mr William H Martinswayed the audience at will so finewere the distinctions in his discourse-on The Necessity of a CollegeTraining for the Preparation of theLegal Profession We make specialmenti9n of Mr Martini because we

The third course was a combinationsalad While it was being served MrP S Jefferson sang in a purely Bo-hemian air a solo entitled The ivesof the Turbulent Deep Mr Jeffersonwas at his best in this song as wellas in the response made in reply tothe eloquent Air J H Clinton AirMarion F Harris discussed somewhat-at length the subject Would theElection of United States Senators-be a Menace to Our Civil and Politi-cal Liberties Our Eminent Amer-ican Jurists was the subject of aneloquent plea by Mr Thornwell

Among the invited guests whospoke special mention is made of DrC Childs of this city and AlessrsF W Newman and L A Wilson

The fifth and last course consisted-of demitasse cigars Roman punchand sweet mints While all wereseated around the festive board MrScurlock the noted photographer entered upon the scene and of coursehis work can be nothing short of excellence

All regretted very much that AirThompson the class president wasnot able to be present at what isthought to have been the greatestfunction of the present scholastic year
