The May festival, presented at Dun- bar Thursday and Saturday, May 11 and 13, before capactty houses, was splendidly received. The story of the carnival is simply that of the varied entertainment given in honor of the Queen of May by her loyal followers. The procession of the participants in the performance was preceded bysev- eral numbers, including two original poems on spring, a beautiful “dance to spring” by Alma Parks and Bea- trice Boyd, accompanied by a May- pole winding. These numbers pre- pared the audience for the coming of the Queen of May, Miss Dorothy Car- ter. A song to spring opened the fes- tival. There were serjous parts to the program which deserye credit, for there was given a most effective saber drill by the officers of the regi- ment, a drill by officers of the girls' battalion, a dumb-bell drill by the boys and an Indian club drill by the girls. These drills were ;well exe- cuted, showed marked abiiity on the L.part ‘of the students, and were well | received not only by the Queen of May and her court, but also by the audi- rious kinds, which were gracefully executed. There were solo dancek, dances for two .and large group dances, There were also Songs of and interpretations of modern song hits, all in tbe spirit of spring, with song and dance. Success of the pro- gram was Increased: by the splendid support given by the schosl orche: tra. The festival was under the di- rection of James.H. Cowan. The fifth annual Spanish carnival ‘was given Monday afternoon. The idea in program was likewise the en- tertainment gliven for the king and jueen of the carnival.

News from Wtlliams also tells of the good work in athletics shown re- cently, when Roscoe Lewis, William Hastie and Montague Cobb, formerly of Dunbar, but now of Amhurst, com- peted with the Williams men for hon- ors. Lewis and Hastie made a fair showing, but Cobb made a fine rec- ord, winning first place in the mile race and third place in the two-mile race.

A preliminary list of prospective graduates shows the names of thirty- five candidates of the four-vear course of the department of busine practice, the largest by far of any preceding four-year class of the de- partment. Of this number twenty- four are girls, twelve boys. The in- creasing size of the senior class means that the business students are remaining four years for instruction instead of taking advantage of the two-year certificate course.
