CLOSING WEEK AT COLLEGE Dallas Students Celebrate Successful ... Year With Appropriate Pro-grains. Just at this time the students of Dal las College. are in the midst of the celebrations that mark the close of the college year of 1907 and '08, a year of exceptional sucoess in every line of work. The festivities of the commencement week were opened with the third annual program of the Utopian Liter ary Society, Friday night The old rivalry between the societies of the young men and the young women of the college ran as high as ever before, and the Utopians spared no pains to make their entertainment a success, Every detail, from the least of the stage decorations to the most import ant portion of the program itself, was given the most careful attention. Those who were present admit that the program was by far the best in point of literary excellence, and com pleteness of preparation, that the young women's society has ever given. The Philadolphian Society followed with its annual entertainment on Saturday night, and apparently the two societies still stand on about equal footing, dividing honors for their skill In preparing ami rendering pro grams. After this program, the mem bers of the Philadelphian Society, the members of the Faculty and other invited guests, mostly from the Uto pian Society, wont to the Dallas Hotel wheretbe young men had had their regular annual hpnquet prepared. . The Philadelphian banquet has, since it was first instituted, been regarded as one of the social events of the college year, and Saturday night s banquet was fully up to the established standard of excellence. Several toasts and speeches by members of the society and the faculty closed the evening's entertainment. Sunday morning Dr. C. A. Mock preached the Baccalaureate sermon, delivering an address full of helpful and practical thought. At 3 o'clook Sunday afternoon, the Y. M. O. A. and Y. W. C. A. held their farewell meet ing, and In the evening, Miss Hutch inson, of the Portland Y. W. O. A., delivered the regular annual address before the Christian' Associations in the Evangelical church.
