When Weather Prophet Pague gave
a lecture on atmospheric juggery
before the normal class of the
Girls High School on Wednesday

he kept his word.

Of gold ribbon worn at the throat, with
their teachers, graduates who had pre-
ceded them and their friends, to the num-
Der of 1900, were out at Sunset City yes

exhibit at the fair, and every other was
deserted when the young ladies gathered
on and about the steps of the
the Boys High School. who had come
out in honor of the young ladies,
marched past in review, preceded by the
Midwinter Exposition band.
Then the young soldiers marched down
TO the recreation ground. In presence OF
hundreds of admlring girls the cadets re-
peated the military eYolutioDs given
week ago. The spectators were especially
interested in the sham battle. The drill
continued for an hour, which was long
enough for the cadets 10 win golden
opinions from group Of army officers
who watch ed them.
Then the young women and their friends
went over 10 Festival Hall. filling the large
auditorium to the doors. Here the princi-
pal exercises of the day took place. Yes
terday was the thirtieth birthday of the

ates united in a joyous celebration of the

yellow cheesecloth, representing the color
Of the school. a long but Interesting pro-
gramme was presented and greatly en-
jOyed by the audience.
A march, "Our High School Girls"

TO the class of '94. was PLAYED by the Ex-
position band. Then PRINCIPAL Elisha
" Brooks gave breezy speech of welcome.
The young ladies occupying chairs, which
collectively covered the whole OF the
broad stage. gave chorus. "Cradle Song"
as a prelude TO the address by john SWEET.
The Superintendent Of Schools reeapitu-
lated The history OF the school, and re-
counted the movements Of some Of the
distinguished graduates. His remarks
were principally anecdotal and were lis
tened to with great interest.
The principal address was made by Pro-
lessor Bernard Moses Of the University of
California. He spoke cleverly of the edu-
cation of women, and sarcastically CON-
bated the idea that their intellectual de-
Velopment is mistake. he said that the
history of women through the ages from
n
was the history of the sex from the harem
10 the university. Speaking of a higher
education he said it is the same sentiment
which kept Eastern women shut up as
slaves W hich prevents girls from attend
ing the university to-day, fear OF losing
social caste.
Professor Moses drew word picture of
the education of women in The twentieth
century. He proDhesied the continuance
and development of the plan for coeduca-
ton OF the sexes. Only in the univers-
ties, he said. could the highest education
be allowed. aud as no state would dupli-
cate these advantages women would stand
by the side of men. He said that in San
Francisco a peculiar condition prevails,
and that women are more cultured than
the men. We are drifting toward state
of affairs which in the twentieth century
will make the woman the student, endowed
with a knowledge OF arts and literature.
while man will be the bread-winner and
patron of manly sports.

Reuer Wilson, Miss Freda Sylvester,

sang two solos and Franz He'll played a
solo on the fuegelhorn, which was
rapturously encored. The Baldwin Theater
String Quartet played very nicely and the
concluding address Of the day was made
by Horace Davis.

possess the handsome silver cup offered by
the athletic auxiliary committee of the

two of the teams have players who were
formerley professionals, thus violating the
amateur clause which is binding upon all
the colleges in the league.
The players com planned Of are George
