Tin: alumxi Exrcncisns.
The exercises at tho university
last night, were of a very cnjoyablo
nature, and the chapel hall was
crowded. The evening was occu.
pied in tho literary exercises of the
alumni of the university. The pro
gram began with a piano duet,
Misses Moores and Reynolds, after
which Rev. T. F. Royal offered
prayer.
The class of 'SS was then brought
in, and Hon. N. L. Butler, of Dallas,
a graduate in the class of 'GO, intro
duced them formally to the alumni
in a very eloquent speech, which
was feelingly responded to by Presi
dent Miller, as ho welcomed the
new-comers to a home in the ahunni
association of the Willamette uni
versity. Mrs. Amelia E. Miller, of the class
of '71 followed the introduction of
the class with a very entertaining
essay ou the subject of "Fault Find
ing." The Misses Royal sang a duet in a
very pleasing way, and Hon. Til
man Ford, '70 delivered tho alumni
oration on the subject "What is a
diploma?" Tho speaker defined a
diploma, as any evidence of 11 per
son's work. It represented what we
could do to-day, or had done in the
past, and not what we might or
would do in the future. The subject
was ably discussed, and was listened
to with marked attention by all
present.
Prof. J. B. Horner, 'S5, read an
original poem on the subiect of
"ThcWorld'sPillars,"whichdeinon
stratcd that the author had excel
lent powers of versification. There
was very much merit in the produc
tion. Miss Addie M. Seriber, '78,
then recited tho pathetic story of
"Brother Ben" with such a degrco
of feeling, as to elicit the sympathies
of her audience ill behalf of the
"homeless girl," and her hope that
the.power of crime was not "in tho
blood" of little Ben.
Chas. "Blloores" as ho writes his
name with a pen, but generally
known to tho public as Chas. B.
Moores, then read the annals of the
alumni, which proved very interest
ing. These annals recited thewherc
abouts of nearly every living member
of the association, and paid glowing
tributes to the memory of those who
have gone before. A cornet solo by
Prof. Coomer, and benediction by
Rev. F. I. Tower closed the literary
exercises.
The members of this association
afterwards gathered in tho rooms of
the women's college, where an
elegant supper was discussed, witli
impromptu speeches, etc., and a
jolly "reunion" was had by all.

whom thirty-one have gone to Join
