Commencement week was an exceptionally ex-ceptionally interesting one beginning with the baccalaureate address given in honor of the graduates Sunday evening in the ward house. On account ac-count of the extreme weather, Mr. Horsley failed to come as scheduled in last week's paper. Bro. B. W. Dal-ton Dal-ton gave the address instead in a very effective manner, giving some excellent excel-lent advice to all present. Bro. Anderson An-derson and Pres. Wall also spoke very encouragingly, as also did Pres. Ove-son Ove-son and Prin. Martin. The E. S. A. quartet gave two excellent renditions which added greatly' to the Interest of the evening. Monday night the Seniors presented a very unique program. The arrangement arrange-ment of the numbers was very unusual un-usual and from all reports pleasing. The little farce, "The Play's the Thing," went off real well, also the musical numbers of the program. But perhaps the most impressive part of the evening's entertainment was the pantomine, "Tenting Tonight," represented rep-resented with soldiers and red cross nurseB and the appearance of the Goddess of Liberty. The opera, "The Chimes of Normandy," Norman-dy," was an overwhelming success. The house was crowded both nights and the audiences showed their appreciation appre-ciation and enjoyment by their hearty applause. We are delighted with the success of the whole affair and feel to congratulate Bro. Halverson for his excellent leadership and also all those who participated and helped in any way to make it the success that it was. It means a great deal to the school to be able to present this class of entertainment enter-tainment In so excellent a manner. Dr. Rose, just recently from France where he did service as a physician in connection with the red cross association, as-sociation, favored the school with an exceptional good talk about conditions as he found them there, also on general gene-ral patriotism. Friday morning a general program was held wherein the certificates of graduation were presented to the eleven elev-en Seniors. The members of the board and each of the faculty spoke encouraginly given much good advice and recalling vividly the pleasant experiences ex-periences of the past year. Bryan Reid gave the valedictory address in a very impressive manner. The mixed quartet sang "The Flag Without a Stain," and Brothers Martin and Halverson Hal-verson gave a duet. The Juniors presented pre-sented the Seniors with a beautiful boquet of carnatons, this being their class flower, and the Seniors presented their class banner to the school. Altogether Al-together it was a very impressive program, pro-gram, and all enjoyed it. The closing ball Friday night was a decided success also and thus ended a very pleasant and beneficial school year. |
