MASON CRY


High school Commencement.
The Mason City High School
Commencement held Tuesday
night. April LIST, in Odd Fellows
Hall building, was the grandest
and happiest event ever witnessed
in Mason City.
The large hall room was beauti-
fully decorated for the occasion, and
was crowded with parents and visi-
tors until there was not standipe
room aud many people had to re-
turn home. because they were un-
able to get into the building.
The exercises were opened in
beautiful Invocation by Rev. A. S
Blagg. followed by song and music
by Miss Katie Ruttencutter aud
Mr. Clifford Myers.
This was followed by the gradu-
ating class in the reading of their
papers prepared for the occasion,
all of which were we'll rendered,
and where all did so we'll, it would
be unfair to speak specially of any
particular graduate.
The address was delivered by
Hon. Rankin Wiley, of Point
Pleasant. His address was pro-
nounced by the audience as the
best and most eloquent ever de
livered before Mason City
audience, and classed him among
the best orators and speakers of the
State. His speech was frequently
applauded.
Prof. Virgil A. Lewis, of Mason,
made the presentation speech in
delivering the diplomas, and he
did himself and the GLASS credit.
This school was taught by Prof.
w. j. Kenny, of Point Pleasant,
and was a most successful term as
the graduating class shows.
The Register extends to the
graduates its best wishes as they
now go forth in the battle of bust
ness life.

Getting Together.

One OF the most notable occur-
rences of the past week in the re-
ligious world was the meeting at
Baltimore of the joint commission
of the two great branches of the
Methodist Episcopal Church in
this country, North and South.
The commission is made up of
able, representative men who rep
resent the widespread desire of the
two branches to get together, be-
lieying that it will result in increas-
ed efficiency in the church work.
Very wisely, the the first efforts at
unifioation will be in the foreign
field, and among other work con-
templated is the establishment of a
book house in China, and of the
ological and female seminaries in
foreign countries. If you can get
people to working together for a
common end you have taken the
first great step toward uniting
them entirety. Many persons out
side of the Methodist church will
rejoice to see this great organiza-
tion moving toward the realization
of it's greatest possible strength
and fullest efficiency.
