Amid the continuous applause of Proud parents. relatives and friends, 400 successful candidates received their much-coveted diplomas and were awarded their hard-earned de- grees at the graduating exercises of the George Washington University, held at the Memorial Continental Hall last night “Cast down materialism and over- come the machine-made world, the iron man, restore the ‘sermon on the monnt.’ take up the sick and despised and help them on their way, and rea:ze that we are ‘our brothers' keepers.” declared Huston Thompson, Federal Trade Commissioner, in an address before theg raduating classes. | “Open tne flood gates of sentiment | into your soul and create the feelings that “made France reach down to honor the poor girl, with no_ father, and insane mother and six children to care for, above all her statesmen and warrlors, by awarding the annual prize given to the person who helped The country most; that made the Britlsh government reach down to the lowest clerk in her civil Service sys- tem and raise him to knighthood; that made the United States return the twenty-four million dollars to China which was rightfully awarded to America after the Boxer rebellion,” sald Mr. Thompson, who stressed the lollowness of a materialistic and ma- chine-made world. i President Hodgkins Spenk: President Hodgkins of George Washington University. in address- ing the members of the graduating classes, urged them to take their in- &piration from those whose memory Was perpetuated by the bullding in which they received their honors. “Civilization is made by uplift and not upheaval and you must—play your part in the moral, intellectual and spiritual progress of civilization as well as yourselves.” said President Hodgkins, who urged those graduat- ing from the university to make themselves worthy of the ten thou- sand who had gone out from the in- stitution since its foundation in 1521, Five honorary degrees were award- ed by the university.

He never has explained the cause of the attack, but the police de- clare that information points (o him belng marked for death in Ireland whence he fled to America after the betrayal of Irish repub- lican army secrets to the Britlsh. He apparently was dying when found after the attack by his foes. One bullet went through his chin emerging from his neck a hair's breadth from the jugular vein. An- other bullet ripped a three-inch vent in his liver and passed through his back.' A third shat- tered the bone of his upper left arm. By a delicate operatlon, involv- ing the packing of the liver with gauze, the wound has been com- pletcly healed. The shattered arm has been restored by suspension two months in a Balkan frame, a surgical development of the war. Oral surgeons closed up both ends of the wound in O'Connor's chin and neck, then cut a drainage through the bottom of his chin which will have to be kept open at least six more munths before the wound will be healed. The lower jaw is being held together with a plate inclosing all his lower teeth. —_— Guillermo T. Coclho, ' Argentin: George Holton Corey, Pennsylvani Fred Hillig, Illinois; Arthur L.

Johnson, ‘31 Years in Service, Guest of Honor. President Sends Letter, While “Senator Sorghum” and Others Are Heard. Philander C. Johnson, playwright, humorist, dramatic critic and creator of the “Shooting Stars” of The Even- ing and Sunday Star, celebrated yes- terday thirty-one years of continuous iservice in which he has never missed !a day's copy for his column, by being the guest of a party organized by friends at the Columbia Country Club. Many notables in official life joined a large number of journalists, players and others who gathered at the cele- bration. President Harding, an honorary member of the constituency, was un- able to attend, but sent a leiter of re- great, in which he sald: “Having long entertalned the hope of meeting Vou in person, along with the other interesting members of your constit uency, I find myself much disappoint- ed today at being unable, on account of other engagements, to come to your party and meet Mr. Philander John- son.” 1 am sure I need not say that although I have not had the pleasure of meeting you and the widely known members of your constituency, I have followed their activities so long as to feel that they are old friends, a facl which accentuates my disappoint- ment at not being abie to come to your party.” The letter was addressed to Senator Sorghum and signed per- sonally by the President. Characters Introduced. Characters created by Mr. Johnson in his column were introduced during the afternoon, members of the Grid- iron Club, of which Mr. Johnson is & member, 'assisting in _impersonating several of the characters.
