Miss Brown's Reception.
Promptly at half past eight o'clock, Tuesday evening, May 30, the one hundred and twenty invited guests began arriving at Fraternal Aid hall in response to invitations sent out by Miss Brown. They were received by Miss Brown assisted by her mother and her daughter, Miss Eva. The hall never looked more beautiful and homelike, the music was never better, nor have the walls ever echoed and re-echoed the musical laughter of a merrier company of dancers. The costumes which graced the festive occasion were unique, pretty and various, especially those of the gay tennis dancers, the stately Egyptians, and the light hearted Gypsies. Dainty refreshments were served at eleven o'clock, after which the merry company passed the time in dancing until old Sol streaked the
gray east, warning the dancers of the approaching morn. The party bid Miss Brown good night and each went his way home vowing that he had never had a better time and hoping that this was not the last of Miss Brown's receptions.
Commencement Concert of Music School.
Last Thursday evening the University chapel was packed to its fullest capacity by an appreciative audience to listen to the commencement exercises of the Music School.
