As an evidence oJ the brotherty and sisterly feeling existing between St. Mary's and the State University, so expressed by the rector in his introductory remarks, Prof. Edwin Mims, of the State University, had been asked to make the literarv ad Prof. Mims chose a most timely subject and he was listened to with the closest attention. Perhaps the gist of the whole ad-1 uress migut do summed up in his closing sentences: "The time is past when people need to leave the south for We are living in great constructive age and there are splendid possibilities of service.

We can accomplish more In the next few years here than in any part of the country So forgetting the thing3 mat are past, in a sense, let us press forward. Men are coming back home1 be cause they see the chances here. Many southerners are returning to labor for their own commonwealth. We have a land to which we owe every possible effort and all enthus iasm and endeavors. In this work the future women who, are well trained and want to do good? have a splendid opportunity to work.

"Dissolve two tablespoonfuls of Calocide in a basin of hot water, Soak the feet in this for full fifteen minutes, gently massaging the sore parts, (Less time will not give the desired results.) The soreness will disappear im mediately and the cal louses can be peeled off. Repeat this for several nights.

It will prove a blessing to per sons who have been vainly trying Ineffectual tablets and foot powders. carry toe lessons you have learned nere that lead to finer and better conditions. Say in the words of the prophet of old, "I will dwell with mine own people." Prof.

Mims first spoke ot three concrete types of southern women of the past, to the end that they might suggest the opportunities open to the southern women today. First, as suggested by St. Mary's School, he spoke of the first type, the aristocratic woman of an old era drawing a picture of her from many of the late novels and poems, espe cially from those of Thomas Nelson Page. The whole address was rich in description and references to the literature of the past and present. The aristocratic woman suggests the natural setting of ancient groves ot trees, polished halls and white col umned porches.

Next he took the type of the mid die, class woman, representing the puritan element in southern life, as sociated with the old time camp meeting. And lastly, the forgotten woman. with whom we are brought closer, face to face today, whom we tind in factories, thin and wrinkled in youth, we find her in untidy bouses working from morn till night. Men may escape from such conditions, but the women of that day were helpless. But the old order has passed.

The tragedy of life is that too often we live in an age that is past Industrialism and a larger nationalism have changed the old order of things. The woman of today must find her place and know under what conditions she must work. Prof. Mims referred to the movement in New England almost half a century ago, some of the same tendencies of which we find in the south today. This movement found Its culmination In the founding or colleges when women demanded the best for themselves.

Out of it came the higher education, the establishing of co-educational school and the women's clubs, the most significant movement of modern times. Prof. Mims spoke of marriage as the probable end of most of the young women, but some, he thought, likely would not marry, and for these he painted an alluring picture of what might be accomplished by the girl of literary talents, of music, of art, or of socialistic bent. All these talents he begged them to cultivate, reciting some noble examples the women of the south who are giving their time to creative and instructive work. In The Chapel.

The closing exercises of the sixty-ninth commencement of St. Mary's School were concluded with religious exercises in the chapel. The procession of white robed girls wound from the auditorium across the campus to the chapel, where opening ranks the choir chanting "Ten Thousand Times Ten Thousand" passed through into the chapel followed by the bishops and clergy, the graduates, students and faculty. Meeting of Trustees. The board of trustees of St.

Mary's held their annual meeting in the library yesterday afternoon. The only matter of business were the discussions of plans for the coming year, and talking over the events of the past year. Those in attendance were: Bishop J. M. Horner, of Asheville; Bishop Robert Strange, of Wilmington; Rev.

B. Drane, of Edenton; Rev. L. G. Wood, of Charleston, S.

Making Ready to Build For The Recorder (Continued From Page One.) corder-were Induced to take up the proposition. Being without for who ever heard of a rich Baptist newspaper? the directors were put to the necessity of borrowing the requisite funds which they are doing with the hope that the rents from the proposed building will pay inter est, taxes and insurance, leaving the Recorder to pay the principal some bright day along toward the milien-inm. At any rate, a suitable lot has been secured on Hargett street, near union station, and upon it a substan tial building costing something more than $12,000, is to be erected. The contract was signed last week and the building is to be ready for occupancy October 1, The bretUren generally will, we pre sure, be glad to know of this arrangement. But in order to bring it to successful issue, we shall need as never before the heartiest co-operation of all our great constituency, for after paying its stockholders 6 per cent on their investment, Che best the Recorder bus ever done, or can hope to do, is simply to pay its expenses in serving the brotherhood.
