Tonight j j commencement exercises will be . H*held in the Orpheum theater. At ( ilthese exercises the students will § furnish the program. In this pro- : Sgram they will give a concrete demonstration of the power that flfhas come to them during then- , Whigh school cause; they will give - ffiexpression to the high ideals, hopes Sand inspirations that . animate Sthem. Of all public gatheringsperhaps ' Mthere is none that surpasses in,richness of thought, in clear lucid ,expression of hopes, ideals, ambi- ftions, the high school commence- Sment. TO GRATIFY PARENTS. Ill We forecast an eventful hour to-Knight. The program will be of Shig,h order; the music, the readings, gBfthe speeches, will be of such na- fture as to give encouragement, sat- , ipfaction and sweet content to par- . ents who have toiled and sacrificed Hthat their children might enjoy Iggithe training and advantages that t;the great American institutional the public high school-offers Hp It was customary in the old days IB when the graduating class was ma small, for each graduate to be handed up a beautiful bouquet i from the orchestra pit, during com- mericement exercises. During the IS past few years, however, on ac- P count of the large numbers grad- S uating this practice has been done { away with because it was found j' i'-p: impractical. j M We trust that tonight the bou- j gf quets will be limited tom kind! thoughts and good wishes, thl$. will p pour from a thousand hearts in the ! mM audience and that they will reach,! SSI fill and thrill the heart of every i § graduate. j f0; The students graduating tonight: Iffra represent practically every shade I of religious belief. This however, j jp« has not been manifested in their llll daily association. Love, tolerance, Wm good-wili and wholesome friend- 1 ships have cnaracterized their g£j! school careers. They haVe lived W-fi here as sisters and as brothers. CREED SUGGESTED. 1 May we recommend to each raH graduate the adoption of this uni- BHBersal creed: jig "I wish to be simple, honest, Hjjfrank, clean in mind and body, u.n- HHaffected-ready to say 'I do not BH know' if so it be. to meet all in etc gMTon an absolwfe equality-to Ta7!l Hg any obstacle and meet every difl ficulty unabashed and unafraid- tlBi to cultivate the hospitable mini N} and the receptive heart." The boys and girls Who are g graduating tonight will be extreme- ly Happy. They will feel the su- m preme joy of worthy achievement. 1 Every one will be glad that he has spent four years so profitably and M that he has been deemed worthy of{ receiving a high school diploma. -f This diploma will always be one of his> cherished possessions. VALUABLE VOLUME. Today, too, each graduate is re"S ceiv'ng his year book-a beautiful artistic volume depicting in a graph-* ?c way the year's activities, the* year's accomplishments. The book, too, presents a won-g derful photograph gallery of all his m classmates and friends who have m enjoyed with him this last great gj eventful year at high school. This book will always be near IS at hand and very frequently as the I years go by, it will be scanned andlg studied. As the student goes over I it again and again--he will rem- g inisce of what this friend is doing H and of what that one has done, and of how ever and anon another has passed to the great beyond. It is a great souvenir of a very happy year. It is doubtful whether he will ever obtain another souvenir of any* period of his life that will mean much to him as his year book. The custom of publishing beautiful record of this most event-1 ful 57ear in a student's life, is one of the finest and best that main-S tains in the high school of ourS land. Some people have been heard toH say that they envy the high schoolM graduate of the joys and honors!! [that come to him on this great day. We hardly think this is true;B rather would we say we share with W them their great joy, and we glory jg in their achievements, and in the g bright future that life holds out tog them. REPORTS THURSDAY. Tomorrow all high school work efor the year ends and on Thursday morning each student will re- g ceive his report card, giving, in n " rather definite way, the teachers' estimate of what he has accom- plished during the year. h Probably no student will feeng that his efforts and work have been over-estimated. Many perhaps will teel that the teacher might have given a little higher rating. Bel [that as it may, we hope that every Icard will serve as an incentive to 'greater effort and that every Stu-H dent will resolve to go on in hisS educational work. 1 r Life is a school, from which all 'ishall graduate bye and bye. If we cherish and practice the virtues Ithat Mr. Hyslop talked to us about ; on Sunday we shall graduate in s rthe "Magna cum Laude" class. BALL IN BERTHANA. Tomorrow night the entire ' school expects to participate in a grand ball in the beautiful Berthana hall, where we have enjoyed so many social evenings during the past two years. J Documents tiled in Two Divorce Cases March 20, 1936 Delbert Smith Whipple today filed! a counter suit for divorce from Andrea P.
