Bulletin says of the Sacramento graduates:
Miss Jennie a. Cox OF Sacramento read il an
admirable manner an essay entitled Com
psnsstions CT Student" from which tie fol.
lowing are few extracts "Sometimeg DUR
lug the lnonoSony of our schooi years we
have felt, as we heard the gay revel5 Of
the world about US, that we were los
lag golden opportunities for merry. max
ing, and that our scholastic acquire.
ments would scarcely compensate Us
for thas of which we ware deprived.
But we have had better moments when we
have rsslzsd that life's best treasures are
gained Only by years of sacrifice and study,
and that the much or little from which the
assessor makes his annual statements arc the
least valuable Of Cur possessioDs. Long ago
perished the Accommodations Of CiG5as, while
immortal are the teachings OF the baresooted
S.crates." Miss Carrie A. Locke, of Sacra.
uleatc, read an essay upon Inequalities
g To form an equation between the reel and
ideal life is the problem which each Individual
attempts to solve. Social inequality is one
of the clearest proofs OF the beneficeT ca of ihs
Creator-as without this there could be no
satisiac DRY division of labor and no etimulns
to exertion. The great circles that separate
humanity into diverse ranks disappear at The
opposite poles of existence as one extreme
they vanish on the shores of that immortal
sea that brought MS hitler st the other they
vanish behind the lonely mystery that ell
shrouds the universal trsgedy-death."
