dial welcome. A short speech was
given by the returning president!
in which he expressed his appreci
ation of the hearty welcome that
had been extended to him. The
speech was doubly effective In that
it unique termination was caused
by the appearance of a train upon
' the same track was the doctor's
truck. i,. . ' . , ; ,
Karly -Saturday morning .the
students served a May morning
