What Cheer.

What Cheer, June 10.-Friday night
at the Masonic opera house was held
the sixteenth annual high school COM
mencement. At $3.50 p. m. the curtain
arose revealing the stage tastily deco
rated with the class colors, green and
white, a profusion of flowers filing ev-
cry nook and corner, while in the cen
ter, from above, was suspended the
class motto, ITO Be Rather than to
Seem" together with the class emblem
the crescent and star. The class num-
bering fifteen, during the first number
of music furnished by the orchestra,
entered the stage from the rear, after
which the program was carried out
without announcement. The large OPP
era house was crowded to it's full ca
pacity, every available space was fill
ed and many had to content them
selves with mere passing glimpse
from the doorways 1t seems to be
the universal verdict that the exer-
cises were among the best if not SUI
perior to any given for years. After
the lengthy program which was listen
ed to by the large audience with the
best of attention, Superintendent Wit
mer, with few well chosen words,
presented the class with their well
earned diplomas. The class roll is as
follows: John Burriss, Eva Dansdill,
