new CASTLE.
June 23rd. 1907!

"Esae guam videri," was the
motto Of the New Castle High
School of 1900 and the young peo-
pie who graduated last evening
showed by their ESSAYS and man
ner that they are Ito be rather
than to SEEM" The stage was
tastefullv decorated with the class
colors, pink and white, choice
flowers and plants added to the
scene and there was tair-sized
attendance in the Opera House
when Prof. Knowles announced the
first number on the program of the
commencement exercises. The ex-
erclses opened with the march,
"Bride Elect" and was followed
by the Invocation by Rev. Eugene
H. Thrasher, pastor OF Nazareth
Church. The salutatory, Living
for Purpose, by Mss Margaret
Maria Lawlor, was we'll received.
In the address the speaker dwelt
at length on human nature and the
great sin ''indolence. The treat
Use on success is not often met with
in the minds of scholars OF high
school. "The pursuits Of life as
spoken Of in the course OF the adj
dress shows a careful preparation
of the study Of the subject. 1.-THE
course Of perseverance," and the
folly of leaving a days work un-
done were well cared for by the
speaker. 1.-THE preparation for
lite's work and the pursuits OF sue
cess" we're ably spoken OF. The
essay Good Books and Their In
fluence," by Miss Mary Boyd Nc
Gonigle showed preparation that
the teacher should be proud Of.
The deep thought of the essayist
was wondered at by many. The
subjects touched by Miss McGoni-
gle were on desirable knowledge
and the value Of good or bad. ="
The value of civilization and its ef-
feet and the use Of literature that
is good. The value Of the books to
the sick and weak. What good
books are in the absence of friends
to cheer and stimulate the patient
watcher. In history the value Of
books and literature showed their
merits, and proved where their
wol tn was in the case of war.
"Uncrowned Queens, was the
subject Of the essay of Miss Carrie
Pauline Pedrick. The first SEN
tence showing that woman to be
a queen need not wear purple and
fine linen evoked a storm of APP
plause. The value OF a woman in
her own home and the queen of that
home were ably depicted. The de-
scription Of home where the I'm
crowned queen reigns was never
more forcibly put forth than in the
essay of Miss Pedrlck. The song
"Home, Sweet Home, is beautifully
portrayed in the work of the essay
list. The value Of home where
kindred tie between man and wo-
man is an object is carefully put
forth. 1.-THE loneliness of spirit is
ably described. The value Of true
charity is also ably pushed forward.
