We choose2 Not the state of 'inocuous
desuetude, but sincerely hope the exact
opposite. Miss Romer's voice was full
toned, well moduls,ed, and her enunciation
perfect.
'wHITE LIES.
Miss Clementine Roseuberg's essay was
entitled white Lies Although it is not
to our credit, said she, we are all liars
to some extent, aud you sll know it 1t is
harsh term, but nevertheless true; but Of
course these fibs are called BY the harmless
and euphonious name of white lies
She then went on to tell in
q pleasant way CT the many
kinds Of white lies and of the various
walks CT life in which they are told. The
society lady, the lawyer. the diplomat, the
politician, and in fact all vocstions in life
were given TO them. They are things we
could we'll dispense with, and it will be
great blessing to the world could it be
made to see that it would be much better
we're it to abolish not only white lies, but
all Her delivery wss good and her voice
distinct and pleasant, while her enuncis-
ton was de sidedly fine.
''wHERE is THE NANF
asked MISS Annie Shaw. Then she began
to find him in q manner that convinced her
hearers that she had pretty good idea
that he was somewhere There are anxious
forebodings, ssid she, as to what will be the
outcome of the great question of capital
and labor. While the lsborer is not the bee
who builds the hive, he is the one who
makes the honey. Where is the man who
can lead the country on to new prosperity
AVID success There is such a man aud
the time will undoubtedly come when the
great question will be solved. 1t seems
that our great prosperity would become our
destruction. The vast over production Of
the various commodities must have an out
let, and there certainly is man who can
find that passage that will relieve the coun-
try of this great surplus burden. Her re-
marks were almost entirely Of a patriotic
nature, and tended 10 impress her hearers
that she had the good of her country at
heart. Her voice was we'll balanced and
eviuced careful training It's range was
good and every auditor heard what she
said.
"A DESIRE TO re BEAUTIFUL
was the text out of which Miss Bama Stat
ter wrought pleasant essay. There are
beautiful things everywhere, she said, even
in Wheeling, which is undoubtedly the
smokiest place in the United States. Still
there are many beautiful things within her
borders, whether it be her good looking
young men or her handsome young ladies.
Beauty may be only skin deep but it has
undoubtedly swayed the nations of the
world. The desire to be beautiful has al
ways been the failing Of poor, weak hu-
manlty. Man and womsn's love to be
beautiful was discussed pleasantly and en-.
tertainingly, and the many kinds Of beauty
brought 10 the view of the audience in q
graphic manner. Her voice was OF good
quality and range, aud she acquitted her
self in an easy, selt.pOssessed style.
WHENCE? wHITHERY
The title OF Miss Nellie l.. S;orers es-
say consisted of two words and two cues
-"Wheuce2 Whither?' She poke
of the many wonderful works OF the world
aud asked from whence or whittier they
came What an unhappy people We would
be if we're not hlesssd 9th that most divine
prerogative, hope. Whether We sprang
from o lump OF clay or were evolved from
race Of monkeys, what matters that. The
anceetrg is good enough. The present

should aim to make the moSt Of il. She
closed with touching and tender farewell
to teachers, classmates and schoolmstes.
