There will be no graduating exercis-
es of the Redwood Falls high school
this year. The cause of this is that
there is no class for that purpose. Last
year two pupils we're considered as
the class-Angelo Bissell and Miss
Emma Richardson, but before the
school opened Angelo Bissell dropped
out of the class, and entered the State
University on tickets already won,
leaving Miss Richardson as the sole
member of the class. The school fac
ulty thought it best not to have exer-
cises in which Miss Richardson would
appear as the sole figure, and hence
there will be no display at the close of
school this year.
