 The valedictory address will be delivered by Carrie King Rice. The pianist will be Robert T. Percy. Arthur Wiswell Jepson, son of Professor Benjamin Jepson, will take prominent part in the exercises. Su- perintendent Dutton will give out the diplo- mas to the class this year. The class poem, consisting of three Rtanzas set to music by Professor Jepson, was composed by gradu- ate of the school. Prof. Jepson will have charge of the musi- cal part of the exercises and has been devot- ing all his spare time to preparing the differ ent classes in the exercises to be sung on graduation night.
