etly interpret the destiny
s1la shapes the life Of man, We
trust that IN the main her pre-
fdictions Of noble lives and occu-
pations for the members Of the
class Of 80 ma verified.
In the abs Hon. M. D..
Z. Fuller, pres q Of the board
of education, whose absence was
enforced by illness, Supt. Park
in 9 few appropriate remarks
made the class members happy
by the presentation Of diplomas.
The Orchestra followed with a
beautiful selection. after which
|Supt. Park introduced Prof. A.
w. Rankin, State Inspector Of
Graded Schools, addressed a few
timely remarks to the audience
and patrons of the schools and to
the class. Prof. Rankin stated
that he had made several visits
to the Virginia Schools and most
heartily commended the faculty
upon the evident and continued
advancement of our schools. In
mentioning the state examination
papers from this district and by
comparison of them with papers
from other districts of the state
he paid the instructors a high
and deserved compliment, stat
ing that the Virginia schools
would this year stand very near
if not at the head of all graded
schools in the state, and that in |
Arithmetic the papers proved
our pupils ahead of the pupils of
the St. Paul graded schools. He
complimented the class upon the !
uniform excellence Of their mer-
itorious essays, and expressed
himself as pleased that the class
chose subjects within the scope
of their work for their commence
ment papers, and hoped that
four years hence each member of
the class of 80 might go forth
from our High School depart
ment with fitting honors. He is
a believer in manual training; that
all should have something to do !
and be made to do it. He con-
graduated the members of the
class upon their evident mental
and moral force, ard extended to
them his best wishes in their flu
ture life.
The exercises closed with a
benedictlon by Rev, G. S. Kathan
and ''The Star Spangled Banner
by the Orchestra.
The hall was beautifully dec
Grated with evergreens, ferns
and potted plants, the initials of
the class motto, do Something,
Know Something, Be Something"
occupying a conspicuous place
upon the wall.
To the class of '99 The Enter
prise extends it's hearty congrat-
ulations and best wishes. But as
they go through life they should
remember that every round in
the ladder of success, from the
one that rests on the ground to
the one that leans against the
shining summit of human ambi
ton, belongs to the foot that gets
on it.
To Supt. Park and Miss K. G.
Sweeney, principal, under whose
direct and efficient supervision
the graduates have been during
the past year, and to Messrs.
Fuller. Griggs and Eaton, COM
posing the board of education,
we extend congratulations for
the evident success of their
labors, and trust the schools of
