Miss Wynema McKinley, member of the ! class and a student of the Washing- ton College of Music, gave two solos. Normal followed its custom of ex- tending a hearty welcome to A. T. Stuart, supervisor of intermediate in- struction, when he appeared to sup- ply the place of the regular speaker | for graduation, who was detained on | account of illness.

An important innovation in the policy of the school is to be made this semester, when credits are to be Eiven for satisfactory work and ex- aminations. Reallzing that a large proportion of the girls and women of Washington are more or less tem- porarily located here, Miss Marion Miller, director of the school, has worked out a careful system of credits by which puplls may have some tangible evidence of the work they have accomplished. As the credit hus become the recognized me- dium of exchunge {n educational cir- cles, this will be of great value to girls and women enrolled in the school. ~ Working for credit is not compulsory. coming in in the col- A new course which is attracting a Areat many registrants is one in practical business law.
