There were so many former DePaitw students at the "College day” meeting Monday, that they sang in praise of “Old DePauw” and gave the ollege yell.

Mrs. W. W. Penfleld, formerly Mis - lean Nelson of Greencastle, who won the interstate oratorical contest In her college days, was ■ hail in.in of Hie day. An interesting laid slat* d ua- that in “Who is Who" in America, the credit of having eradnated more sucrersfu 1 men than any other college of its size was given DePauw. Mrs. Martha Tarbell spake for the State University at Bloomington where the present \mericaii system of education was flrsl horn in I sit;. Mrs. C.
