Mr. J. A. M. Passmere, of Philadelphia,
was chairman of the oveuing, and, assisted
by Miss Josephlno Engle, of Chosler, Pa,
as secretary, presided with rare dignity
and grace. Mr. Passmere Is a warm friend
of the school as well as a fermer student,
and was very lie&rtlly greeted. Upen as
suming the duties of bis position he very
pleasantly referred te his oxperiences here
as a siuuent.il years age. He expressed his
airectlen for the old Page, and the Mlllers Mlllers

THE PAtlE OIIATIOV.
The Page oration was delivered by Thoo Theo Thoe
doro A. Snyder, or Lehighten. Ills sub
ject was "Our Country's Perils end Possi
bilities." One or our perils Is our very small army
and navy, less than one-third as large
as that orSvvitzerland. Ne adoquate coast
defonses ter our great cllles. Anethor perll
is the mlsorable condition or the peer who

Abject peverty preduces frail bodles.feoblo
Intellects and vicious moral. Mauulac
hiring Interests should meve from city te
country and take a portion of this wretched
humanity with thorn. Other perils are the
formation ir trusts and powerful corpora
tions of railroads. Theso should be se
const lucted that they may become the ser
vants or the peeple and net their masters.
There are perils as well as great possibil
ities in our educational systems. Our
illiterate are only 15 per cent., which is
less than that of many countrles lu Eu Eu Eu
repe. The reclter of the ovenlng, Miss Jessle
Dalrymple, of Philadelphia, read most ud
mlrably "The Elopemont," a patriotic
story of the Revolutionary tlmes. Her
readings wero se much enjoyed that hIie
was recalled again and again. She read
six selections, although according te the
programme'sho was te read but two.
The honorary address, by Rev. C. II.
Richards, of Philadelphia, en the subject of
"Life as a Flne Art," was both olequont
and Instructive. He represented the artist
as werkiug for the expression or an Ideal.
Celer, form aud sound are the crude ma
terial that art works with, but the mere
manipulation of these Is net art. Net until
we rise te the porceptlon that the beauties
