OMENS SAMPLE OXFORDS Oxfords and Pumps--in Patent CONOCATN AT QUEEN pd Proceedings nandaily Grant Hall was well filled Wednes- day afternoon for the proceedings of Convocation, Honorary were, conferred and the recipients of these degrees made short Es Ideal weather prevailed for this big event of the year in college circles, and the scene in this magnificent hall was a beautiful one. The lady gradu- ates wore handsome Bouquets of flowers, Quite a large number of out-gi-town people were present. The proceedings of convocation were very quiet--in fact so quiet from the stu- dents' standpoint, that it brought forth a comment from Principal Tay- lor, in the closing address of the' afternoon, when ia a jocular way, he informed the visitors that they must not go away with the idea that the students were as well behaved on all occasions as this, - 'College yells, which have made Grant hall ring on former occasions, did not pumctuate the "doings," but at the cloge the students broke forth and made up for lost time, : Rev. Dr. Herridge, Otfdwa, con- ducted the opéhing devotional ex- ercises, and Principal Taylor, who presided and conferred the degrees, stated that he regretted very much to announce that Chancellor E. W. Beatty had found it impossible to be present, He called upon Viee-Prin- cipal Dr. Watson, to present the can didates for honorary degrees. . In presenting Miss Helen Reid, Montreal, for the degree of Doctor of Laws, Prof Watson paid a warm tribute to the work Miss Reid carried on for the CanadianePatriotic Fund, and also told of the part she had played in other lines of work. Following the conferring of the degree, Principal Taylor called upon Dr. Reid to make an address, The_ latter sald she appreciated very much the honor which had been conferred on her. It no doubt had range of styles If While they lagt-- -- a | been given her on account of the ser- vice she had rendered during the war, The speaker said that the war had left a lesson for all, and she referred to the loss in the great conflict of so many nation buillders. The speaker also referred to the work in which she had" been engaged along ¢hild- ren's welfare, and public health 'work. In connection with public health, she made an outstanding re- mark, to the effect that during nine- teen months 'the United States had been in the war, they lost 65,000 men but during the same period the coun- try had lost 460,000 babies under five years of age, bécausé the child- ren could not get proper food and proper care. Miss Reid told of the responsibili- ties of the students, and the oppor- tunities' for service. She made a special appeal to the women. To- day mere than any other time in the listbry of the world, the call went out for servige from women, They should accep: the challenge for world service, yg Dean R. W. Brock, of the Univer- sity of British Columbia, was then introduced by Prof, Watson for the degree bf Doctor of Laws, and in doing so, Prof. Watson referred to the "brilliant career of Dean Brock in his college work, and also over- seas during the war} Dean Brock, who {8 a graduate of Queen's, was warmly received." He recalled hi. first days at. Queen's some twenty-five years a-o, and mar- velled at the grqwth of the" univer- sity. He also spoke of the spirit.of Queen's--that spirit of loyalty that made her great and a power that would last so long as the ideal of the universily was that of service. He called upon the graduates and un- dergraduates to beautify that spirit. The degree of Doctor of Laws was conferred on A. B, Turner prineipal of the Collegiate Institute, at Hamil- ton, a veteran in the ~anks of educa- tion in Ontario, Prof. Watson, in intrdducing Mr. Turner, referred to him as one who had proved himself to be a born teacher. Mr. Turner has been lon- nected with the collegiate in Hamil- ton for thirty years. Mr.' Turner pald a tribute to Queen's University, stating that the college had been a power in the country and would contiiue to serve as such. He appreciated very much the honor, coming as it did from his own Alma Mater. Clive Corliss, manager of thie Mcnd Nickle Company, on, Ont., re- Pure Blood | Sor.

In receiving the homor he did not take it as a tribute to himself, but rather as a tribute to the cause he was working for. Dr, James Cappon, the vetgfan member of thg col ege staff, who re- tired some time ago, was to have been honored with the degree of Doc- tor of Laws, but hs is out of the city, and the degree will be conferred later on, probably at the convoca- tion to be held in the fall, The degree of Master of Science was. conferred on James J.

He also took occasion to refer to the splendid work accomplished by Prof. Nicol and Prof. Miller under whom ho studied, ; Bofore -the proceedings were Lrought to. a close, Principal Taylor kad a few words to say to the gradu- ates, wishing them "God speed." He sald he did not wish for them an "easy road," but he wished for all of them plenty of good hard work. "But the university wishes you well," said Principal Taylor. "And I hope that in a few years from now you will come back and hold a re- union and raise the roof."
