ADDRES8 OF PRESIDENT THOMAS
The address of President Miss Carey
M. Thomas waa chiefly on peace She
said that the young people of this coun
try are' turning from war to peace, and
declared that 10 years ago It would have
been difficult to have an address on that
subject at a college commencement.
In the midst of tho terrible- crisis
brought on by the war, According to Miss
Thomas, It seems scarcoly right to go
n holding commencement exercises, and
yet, she pointed out, It Is from the men
and women of the colleges that tho world
looks for help.
The speaker said she would be In favor
of closing all colleges If their graduates
were to bo made "food for cannon." She
aid that teaching and social work are
the chief activities of college women and
that Bryn Mawr, bearing this In mind,
makes a specialty of both. The college
woman, she said, will have a useful and
happy outlook, a vision beyond tho or
dinary routine of life

Bartram, a fashionable apartment hotel

has been a well-paylng department of the
hotel."

offMat announcement by the tt'ennsyl
vaijla Railroad that the saloon would be

ha been given ""
Tho Bryn Mawr class record Is broken.
After all the controversy by Westorn col
lege professors, to tho effect that the fair
seniors who graduato from tho woman'n
colleges are too proud and wise to marry,
announcement comes from Bryn Mawr
that one senior has already announced her
engagement nnd several others are en
gaged, but are too modest to come out
with It
Miss Marie Keller, daughter of Mr and
Mrs. Harry F. Keller, 2313 Green street,
announced her engagement to Herman
Heyl, Jr , son of Mr. and Mrs Herman
Hel, of the Montovlsta Apartments,
Overbrook Her announcement came as a
complete surprise to her classmates. Her
action awakened the graduates nnd they
mado a careful Investigation, questioning
each "suspicious" senior closely. The
result was that several other fair maldB
confessed that they had consented to
Cupid's entreaties and were happy, too.
Hut they refused to let their names be
revealed They will bo married some time
during the summer. The number of se
niors that are engaged Is understood to be
six, although no definite Information could
be gained

cations. She was C3 years old and was
a tenant for the last 25 years In the home
of Jncob Flnesteln. of 2213 East William
street. The woman kept her affairs to
herself and waa regarded by some as a
recluse
Among those who attended her funeral
today was Wllllum Pearl, a relative, of
27S9 Cresson street. Pearl and Flnesteln,
it W said, each ordered a carriage. On
leaving the cemetery, It appears, Flne
steln got In Pearl's carrlago He was
ordered to get out and refused. Then,
according to Flnesteln, Pearl pulled a re
volver .Things were getting serious when
Policeman Jolly, who Is Just na lively as
his name, appeared.
