Western College, At Oxford, Observes Annual College Day.

The Western college for Women, at Oxford, Ohio, celebrated on October 12th its annual college day, which corresponds to founders’ day at other women’s colleges. Many distinguished guests gathered to share the day’s festivities with the students. The feature of the day was the address by Rev. Thomas Knox, of Cincinnati. Rev. Knox took, for his subject “The Bible as Literature.” The address was interesting and suggestive along many lines, and in particular his hearers were made to realize the important part which the imagination must take in the Interpretation of Old Testament literature. Miss Helen F. Murray, of Rensselaer, is enrolled at Western this year,
