 It was most admirable discourse, and held the close attention of 3 congregation made up of union of all the village con- gregations. The choir was led by Organ ist Wood of the Methodist church, and four different church choirs were repre- sented in it's make up, also Methodist and Episcopal clergymen having part in the stage exercises.
 THE GRADUATING ExERCIsRs
 at the Opera House on Tuesday evening attracted the largest body of people ever assembled in the building, many going away when noting the crowded condition of the room. The stage was beautifully decorated with prOfusiOn of flowers, the class motto and '95 in daisies appearing in the background. An invocation by Rev. A. J. Solandt opened the exercises, following which like clock work, without a pause or break, came the reading of es- says, interspersed with fine selections of music from an excellent orchestra led by s. H. Holland. The essays, outlined else- where, were of high grade. The necessity of cOndensing into few words made them the more interesting, and every one got close attention. After these the diplo- mas were presented by Dr. F. L. Smith of the town school board, who prefaced the giving by fine address to the pupils. At the close Principal Jacobs invited the alumni and undorQr0duAtoS to remain and greet the graduating class. These and many friends did so, space on the opera house floor being cleared and an hour or two spent in social greetings. During much of this interval the orchestra played, and occasionally the floor was occupied by couples tripping steps to the music. At about il p. m. the gathering broke up.
 On Wednesday the high school went to Crystal Lake on their annual picnic.
 An examination of candidates for ad- mission to the high school will be held al the school house on Saturday, at a. m.
