The Dedication Exercises.


The dedication exercises drew a
large audience to the new High
School building last night. Owing to
some miscalculation somewhere sui
ticient seats had not been provided
and large portion Of the audience
was compelled to stand during the
rendition of rather lengthy program.
The exercises opened by County
Superintendent Massey calling the
assemblage to order and announcing
a selection by the orchestra, COM
posed Of Mrs. Bush, L. Wintermantel
and j. Eggers, as the first number ON
the program. Rev. M. S. Riddle fol-
lowed the music in an appropriate
prayer in which he invoked the bless
ings Of God upon the institution OF
learning 80 soon to be thrown open
to the youth of this and adjoining
counties.
Mr.. Massey then bid the assembled
people a hearty welcome to the
exercises. He was followed by Miss
Nellie Ainley whose excellent rem
dition of the solo, @Fleeting Days."
won her enthusiastic applause as
hearty az it was deserved.
MIR. Massey then introduced DR..
Joseph Edward Stubs, President OF
the Nevada State University. DR..
Stubbs, after a few preliminary re-
marks in which he paid glowing
tribute to Mr.. Massey, took for his
theme @What knowledge is Ct most
worth" and discussed it in such an able
manner that the large audience sat
spelbound for nearly an hour ilsteu-
ing to the eloquent words OF wisdom
and the burning words Of patriotism
that fell from his lips. A synopsis Of
the Dr.'s address would fall far short
Of dong him justice. The truth is
that the reporter was 30 interested in
the eloquent gentleman's remarks
that he forgot his notes and sat as
still as a mouse for fear he might
lose portion of the address. Suffice it
to say that the address was the ablest
ever heard in Elko ON any subject.
The DR.. was several times interrupted
by hearty rounds Of applause and at
the conclusion of his remarks a per-
feet torrent Of applause swept round
the room.
Messrs. Wintermantel and Engler,
accompanied by iss Beccie Alex
ander on the piano, followed DR..
Stubbs with violin duet, that re-
ceived well merited applause.
Hon. II. q. Cutting, State Superln-
tendent, followed with q short talk
on the resources and capabilities of
Nevada and what it was necessary
for the people to do to mako the
most Of them and build up prosper.

was closely listened to and received

conclusion Of his remarks.

on the piano, sang 81 Live and Love
Thee" which received round o.
well merited applause.

persed to their various homes vel
