College Commencement
tracted Big Crowd.
State At-
The annual commencement at State
College during the week attracted the
usually large crowd and while the
graduating exercises mean just as
much now to the graduates them-
selves as they did a decade ago, the
hundreds of young people who gather
there from all parts of the State make
it seem more like a gala social event
than a serious epoch in the lives of
the hundreds of young men and wom-
en who completed their course and
were granted their diploma.

Some Folks Think the Counting of
Sheep Will Put Them to Sleep.
Counting all the sheep in the world
will not bring repose if insomnia is
caused by nervousness due to eye-
strain.
Reliable physicians will not pre-

are due to overtaxed nerves.
Better have your eyes examined.
