EXERCISES.

Wadsworth Grammar school took place
At Music Hall Thursday evening before a
very large audience.
The stage Was nicely decorated and
the taste displayed marked that culture
md refinement that go with pupils OF
u common puplic schools who have
studied long and earnestly enough to
become graduates OF the Grammar
grade.
The members OF the graduating class
were: Teasie Donelin, Barbara Bryant,
Lillian Esden, May Pollock, Frank Gill,
ALA %Clippenger, Josie O'Brien, George
Abbay, Eva Beemer, Tom Donelin.
Class motto: mot Finished, But
Begun"
The class colors were pink and green.
The first number on the program was
the Parting Song by the school.
Miss Barbara Bryant's essay, "Lighle
Old and New" was well received,
Miss Lillian Esden's recitation, "Gi:
Long Kate" was rendered well and ip IA
distinct voice, IA quality appreciated very
much.
THAT is very, very nice" is the way
our n%eighbors spoke OF Miss May Pol
locks Instrumental solo, aud we agreed.
II was very sweet.
1t was very like Tom Don-lin to
choose the subject ''Field Sports for
his essay and the audience received ron
.iderable information. The essay took
well.
Miss Beulah George is improving and
her vocal solo, AT Dawn" held the
attention of her audience. The young
lady has a sweet voice.
ALA Clippenger is II Of our favorite
recitationists and 1.-The Leak in the
Dixie" was rendered by her with good
modulation and every word came t. the
end OF the room where the scribe sat
with a ~clearness of the ring of a bell.
Worry" was the subject chosen by
Teasie Donelin for her essay and she
handled it well. She had given the
matter considerable thought and the
naive style was very charming. 1t was
Just Teasie as natural as life.
The %quartette, Fred Geogg, A.. III.
Griswold, Roy Lewis and II. Haight,
sang Life is Fleeing and it seemed
like good old days to hear the boys.
Joe jackson came right to the front
with "At Aunt Hettie's" and kept the
gallery in a roar. Joe WAS in his eks-
nient and the Youngsters kept up with
the procession.
Frank Gill took "The Indian" for the
subject OF his essay and told about Mr..
Indian in an easy graceful way.
Josie O'Brien's Dance of the De-
mon" showed that the young lady is fast
becoming an accomplished pianist and
W. note her progress from month to
month.
j. w. O'Brien, Clerk of the Board of
Trustees, conferred the diplomas and
gave the graduates some very COOL ad-
vice. The speech was most appropriate,
couched in good language and delivered
impressively.
Principal D~ornberger gave the class a
finished address in which were words Of
wisdom.
As a token of regard and on behalf of
the clasa, Eva Beemer presented Princi-
pal Dornberger with a pair of cuff but
rons with his initials thereon. MIR.
Dornberger acknowledged the gift very
gracefully and accepted it as n tribute of
the regard of the class for him.
Dancing was INDUCED in until a late
hour and doubtless the young people
concerned will ever remember the occa
sion.
Speaking from the standpoint OF an
experienced teacher we regard Mr..
~Dornberger as q very competent and
Industrious instructor and feel that he
has labored hard and earnestly to bring
our SCHOOLS into the front rank. 1t has
come to U observation that he has
never felt that his duties ended with the
days work in the schoolroom, but ut
odd hours o OF the schoolroom, during
the mornings and evenings and on Sat
urdays, pnpila ambitious Il go ahead
and acquire an education have hal the
benefit Of his services without stint.
We are very proud of our Wadsworth
BOYS and girls because We have ever
found them to be ladies' and gentlemen
and not INCLINED To tina. h-innancy wLicL
