When the cheers died : Friday, June 6, Annapolis h.u passed through one of the most brilllant weeks since the Hon. George Bancroft, secretary of the navy under James K. Polk, founded the Naval Academy in 1845. Friday terminated the cadet week of work and play. When the cadets were lined yp, glistening like dia- monds in the afternoon sun in their | dress uniforms, to receive their di- plomas and listen to the address of the Hon. Josephus Daniels, secretary of the navy, it was the last dress , parade on the old grounds for many, for on the morrow the uniform of the commissioned officers replaced the | garb of the cadet. The day marked ‘an epoch in the lives of these boys who have spent four long years of ~study, a day the pleasant memories “of which will come back to them in the cold dim watch of the midnight hour. This year was the second in the an- nals of the academy that the cadets graduated as commissioned officers. Official Reception. At 10 o'clock the board of vieitors arrived and the entire morning was devoted to an official reception. At 4 o'clock in the afternoon the board | of visitors gathered at the superin- tendent's quarters, where another re- ception was tendered them. Then the cadets were drawn up, resplendent in their dress uniforms, to go through the evolutions of dress parade. After the parade the awards were made. The profeesional prizes, open to any member of the graduating class, last year went to Midshipman Howard E. Saunders. They are: sword for practical and theoretical ciety Sons of Revolution for excel | lence in practical gunnery, cup offered by Col. Robert M. Thompson of New York and graduate of class of 1868 for practical navigation. an organization made up of midship- men, presented their annual play. On Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock there was a street riot and skirmish drill by the first battalion. At 10:45 an artillery drill by the second bat- talion. At 2:30 the board of visitors '|uupected the buldings and grounds. At 6 o'clock dress parade. At 8 o'lock the superintendent gave a dinner to | the board of visitors, and another per- formance by the Masqueraders was held at 8 o'clock. Wednesday morning at 9:15 the ca- dets took part in a competitive artil- lery drill, and in the afternoon at 2:30 in another competitive drill in sea- manship. At 6 o'clock the cadets formed for dress parade. At night the cadets gathered their mothers, sisters, sweethearts and friends at a garden party given to the members of the graduating class by the super intendent. g On Thursday a competitive infantry torpedo and gun drills and exercises in practical engineering at 2:30 and 4:30 in the afternoon. After the dress parade at 6 o'clock the presentation of colors for general excellence took place. The right to carry those colors {. an honor which is keenly fought for by the cadets. The annual alumni dinner was held at 8:30 on Thursday night and from 9 to 1 the members of the first class again gathered their friends at their german.

The poor “cit” who acts as her escort while the mid- shipman is at drills or attending his many other duties fades into the back- ground when ‘“the boy of the sea” sails into view and relieves him of his precious charge.

Long-winded German names are something of a trial to the world at large, but the Germans themselves ap- pear to have found the remedy, says the Scientific American. In 1909 an international aeronautical exposition was organized at Frankfort-on-the- Main. Its full name in German was “Internationale Luftschiffahrt-Ausstel lung.” After being abbrebiated to *I L. A" this ultimately became “lla;"” and as the “lla” the exposition has since been universally known. In like manner the “Allgemeine Luftfahrtzeug- Ausstellung” held last year in Berlin was known ae the “Ala:” and now we hear of the "Damnu,” which, to the Lbusy man, is a happy substitute for |“Deutscha Ausschuss fur den mathe . matischen und naturwissenschaft- ilichen Unterricht.” “Imuk,” which sig- !nlfles Internationale mathematische | Unterrichts-Kommission and “Datsch,” !a condensation of Deutsche Ausschuss gunnery, cup offered by National so'f fur technische Schulen, Of course, this method of syncopa- { tion has its limits! since many combi | nations of initials are unpronouncable, | while others might be too grotesque | to be palatable. On the other hand, it | seems likely that in future the names | of many expositions, societies and the like will be deliberately selected with lroh\n’m-v to such abbreviation. Mental Originality, Anatole France has coined a phrase { which may have the breath of life in it “What is madness, after all,” he 8ays, lwfllea that Charles Dickens always liked madmen, and cities among the madmen good Mr. Dick, in “David Cop- perfield,” whose fnnocence is described with such tender grace. “I believe.” | writes the great Frenchman of letters | “that Dickens had more feeling than any other writer. | believe that his novels are a6 beautitul as the love and | pity that inspired them. 1 regard ‘David Coppertfield’ as a new gospel. 1! believe, lastly, that Mr. Dick is a ‘sen- sible’ madman, because the only rea- son left to him is the reasoning of the . heart, and that is hardly ever re. | i ceived.
