ACADEMY Closes
COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES OF
Mt. ST. J0SEPH'S.
A Talented Class Gives an Attractive
Program at the Opera House to a
Large Audience Sweet Music.

The annual commencement exer-
cises Of Mt. St. Joseph's academy
have come to be looked forward to
with high anticipations by the people
Of this city and there is never any
disappointment. The excellent train
ing and high plane OF scholarship at
tanned by the classes always make the
program interesting. Tuesday was
no exception and the eighth annual
commencement was fully up to those
Of the past. The opera house was
well filed and the closest attention
was given to the various numbers.
The exercises opened with Ave
Maria, Miss McInerney accompanying
the singers.
Miss Claude Hare, daughter Of Mr..
and Mrs. Stuart Hare Of Enterprise,
had the salutatory and she greeted
the audience with well written and
delivered Grafton on "A Star In the
Literary World" Her ideals Robert
49, H.
Browning and the skill with which
she selected the gems Of his produc-
tions and pointed out their beauties
showed refined literary taste.
There were two piano trios by the
Cecelians that attracted much favor
able comment.
The entire class recited in unison
"Jephthah's Daughter" in a manner
that was really marvellous, acting in
such perfect harmony and with such
exactness as to show very careful
drill.
A vocal trio by Misses McInerney,
Walker and Scott was delightful and
the class chorus "As Slow Our Ship"
with Miss McInerney as accompanist
made exquisite harmony.
Albert Follins, son of Conductor
James Follins, gave as part Of the
program an GRAFTON, 1.-The Russian
Exile" Like former efforts Of Mr..
Follins here it was marked by strong
delivery and eloquent phrasing, and
ELECTED hearty applause.
The valedictorian was Miss Eliza
beth Scott Of Chapman and her sub
iect was "The Influence Of Poetry on
Morals" The uplifting power Of
poets dreams and the strength Of
character resulting from the lofty
conceptions Of those skilled in the
true art Of verse were gracefully and
eloquently described.
Rev. DR.. Pompenney of Pittsburg,
Kas., delivered the diplomas, with
few appropriate words to the class
which is as follows:
