After another song by the chorus
the principle feature of the after
moons entertainment was given.
1t was an original farce by Miss Will
liams, "a Loan Art Exhibition of
1925, bringing in the members Of the
graduating class. The cast follows:
Madame de Pompadour (by De la
Tour Aletha Sutphen.
Flora (by Titian)-Julia Hinch-
man Cutler.
Lady With Straw Hat (by Rubens)--
Florence Moore.
Mrs. Siddons (by GaiDsborough)-
E. Ginevra Eagles
Daughter of Philip ~ of Spain (by

mier.

Sampson Hurlbut.
Madame Lebrun (by herself)-Olive
Penniman Williams.
Portrait of Lady (by Vandyck)-

Mrs. Robert Egglesfield Griffith by

The scene was in an old garden and
summer house adjoining the picture
gallery in the house of Mrs. Hezekiah
Hobbs (nee Sutphen of the class of
1900, the celebrated antiquarian.
Mrs. Hobbs had arranged to give a
loan art exhibition of famous old
masters and for the occasion had bor-
rowed portraits belonging to her for
mer classmates. Under the magic
influence of the night the portraits
came to life, strolled into the garden,
and there discussed many things,
principally how their respective own
ers lived, what they had been doing
since 1900, and the possibilities of the
future.
There is opportunity for unlimited
testing, sarcasm and wit in the situa-
tions brought about and Miss Will
liams has made the most of them.
The farce was thoroughly enjoyable
from beginning to end, the characters
took their parts we'll, and the portraits
were exceptionally good as living
pictures. The whole scheme showed
careful training and hard work on the
part of the class.
Another song followed and then the
presentations were made, Miss SUIT
phen and Miss Hurlbut making the
speeches. To Miss Williams was given
box of complexion cosmetics, to
Miss Eagles box of mock jewels, to
Miss Cutler large blue rubber ball,
to Miss Lyon a toy watch, to Miss
McFarlin a string of time tables, to
Miss Moore some fancy neckties, to
Miss Paulmier a mask, to Miss SUIT
phen buster and to Miss Hurlbut a
banner of the Morristown High School
and St. Paul's School colors The
speeches accompanying the gifts were
happy and witty.
The exercises of the day closed with
the usual planting of ivy and the ivy
song. The young ladies formed in
two lines, carrying long ropes of ever
green, garlands of flowers, and punches
of ivy. They marched from the school
building around the lawn and to the
side of the east wing where the last
event of the class day was impressive
ly performed.
THE SWEET GIRL GRADUATE.
Tuesday morning the sweet girl
graduate made her bow to relatives

Ply throng that filled the hall and it

DR.. Mabie's address was grand and
eloquent. He said that in the greAr
battle Of life there were bur two
things to be considered. preparation
and purpose. OF the two preparation
was the greater Without that no one
could carry any purpose TO its full
fruition. He then told the story Of
Siegfried and the dragon showing BY
the NEUROLOGICAL picture that the bat
tie was not won when Siegfried met
the dragon bat when he forged his
. sword Then Dr.. Mabie spoke of the
inward aim which every one should
have and without which there could
