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.
P. H. D'Aroy, of Salem, delivered
the annual address before the literary
societies last night on the subject of
"The Value of Work In Literary
Societies to the Student" A large
crowd attended the lecture, which was
appreciated by all.
The class of '08 will hold Its class
day program thiw afternoon, and
Professor W. T. Caldwell's music
students will give their annual recital
tonight. The entertainments of the
week will be closed tomorrow with the
graduation exercises in the morning,
and the reunion of the alumni of
Dallas College, LaCreole Academy
and Lafayette Seminary at the Wood
man Hall in the evening.
