,

Arbor Day exercises will be held
tomorrow morning on the campus;
the reading of the class prophecy, the
dedication and planting of a tree and
the orations of the iSenior and Junior
representatives will toe features of the
program.
At the Senior class meeting Monday
a committee was appointed to select
a place and a tree and the person who
In their opinion should be honored
with the dedication. In former years
some leading literary light has been
given the honor, and there is a rumor
that this precedent will be followed
this year, altho the recipient's name
Is still held secret. The tree, a pin
oak, has been given to the class by
Mr. H. F. Hillenmeyer, the Payette
County nurseryman.
The classes of the University will
form in line in front of Mechanical
Hall at 10 o'clock promptly, and will
march from there to the place where
the tree Is to be planted. Maury
Crutcher, captain of the Wildcats last
fall, will be marshal of the parade.
The girls of the Senior class will wear
white dresses and the entire air of the
occasion will be in line with the
springtime season. The faculty has
decreed that classes will be dismissed
the third and fourth hours.
When the parade arrives at the
place appointed, the exercises will
begin with the reading of the Senior
claBS prophecy by Miss Marie Becker,
followed by the dedication of the tree
by William Shinnick, class president.
Each member of the class will throw
in a spadeful of earth and the Senior
orator, Orie L. Fowler, and the Junior
orator, Virgil Chapman, will ma"ice
their speeches.
On Arbor Day, according to custom,
Is the Tap Day of the Senior societies, Lamp and Cross and Staff and

"MOVING DAY" MAY 18
The Senior class, at a meeting Monday afternoon, decided to go thru with
the commencement exerciseB as sched
uled, in spite of the fact that about
of the class have left col
lege either to do military service or
to aid in the production of foodstuffs.
About forty members of the 140 who
compose the class were present.
The Senior (ball will also be given
as announced, on Monday of commencement week. The class has ordered beautiful programs and the
opinion was that it would not be wise
to let these go to waste. Those students who are not at the University
for the graduation exercises will have
their, programs mailed to them.
Plans are to urge as many of those
students who returned to farms and
can leave, to come back for the commencement days.

Former Kentuckians have been dedicated to various men connected with
