Hand to Pr sident McChesnev names oJ those who may b interesled. · Several now in the summer school intend to take up a regular course in the college, either the four-year course for high school teachers or the two-year course for elementary teachers. Why not all who have no school for the coming ye>ar? It is the only thinv to do if you intend to teach. Take your normal course now. once ~nd for all, get your certificate without any examination and then go t0 work, and make it a life certificate by successful te,;,.ching. College graduates who are working for normal credit ou1?;ht tn make their work count also towards the rlegrc~e of Bachelor of Science in Education, or that of Master nf Arts. Each of the~e degrees re– quires only twertty-four credits and a thesis. These requirements can easily be completed in the summer sessions.. CHAPEL TALKS. From the opening address with its helpful ehcouragement to work, made by our own Rev. J . L. Chesnut, the chapel period at ten each morning has been a series of delightful snrprii:oes, withdrawing attention from studies just long enough to refresh us and by a demonstration of more than averae;e skill or knowledge leave us each one each morning with a rene,ved desire s0 tn study and so to work that we, too, may excel in chosen ·ways. T0 give due iopace here to acknowledge with ecomium and thimks thf' efforts of all who have thus striven to entertain, instruct and inspire us is not permitted, for words are but feeble praise. But the echoP.s 0f these happv occas– ions ,.,Till long continue to exist in me1n0ry. The Clark si:Lers il,1- mediately won their way among us by thefr careful artistry. For Miss Geneicve we shall send to drive awa:v the blues and ·'the Other Wise Man" seems human to us now sinrf' Miss Faye made us to known him. Nor would Tennyson have heen displeased could he have heard Mr. L. A. Waites tell again the touching story of "Enoch Arden." Indeed we are indebted to Dr. ~VIcChesney in his wonderfully versatile provision of talent not least of all for the Scripture read– ings by the members of his oratory clasB. "Prexie" himself rC'ceivC'd unusual applause the morning he brot Talmr.dge back to us because he excelled himself and that is indeed quite a difficult feat. The voral solos of Miss McCanse and Mr. Seigler ,vere inst plain treats an'! one who has no musical skill dare not attempt to praise the viol.in playing of Mr. Roudebrush for lack of words to paint the beauties o:i' his classic harmony. To Rev. H . C. FosteJ· for his timely talk upon the Value of Christian Training, to Dr. J. S. Martin for his df'finiti0n of Christian education, to Rev. PD.rks Ja<'kson for his delightful reminiscenses, to Ralph Hill for t11e insight he gave us of settlement work, Mrs. M. L.

Aridrew for her talk on "}Jliza– bethian Fashions" and their effeet on Eng-1i'Sh literature . to Miss Carrie Finney for the portrait of the great Northwest, to Miss Ma...·;v Ervin who spoke on the subject so dear to her heart-Temperance, to those we fail to mention but to whom we delir.:hted to listen we best express our real feelings in the m:itter when we say that chapel hour at Cedarville Summer School has bPen our best course and v.Te
