GRADUATES

Despite the excessive humidity which
prevailed in this city this morning. the
spacious hall OF the English high school
was well filed with people assembled TO
hear the graduating exercises OF the class
OF 1904
Promptly at 10 o'clock the combined
orchestra Of the three high schools struck
up lively march. and the graduating
class assembled upon the platform. The
graceful folds OF a large American nag
served as a background for the many
white dresses. and fringing OF flowers
In baskets and bouquets edged the stage.
The class this year Is exceptionally large
and the seating capacity OF the platform
was severely tried.
The exercises were OF n musical and
literary nature and SO interesting as 10
hold the undivided attention OF the audi
ence throughout the program.
The singing seems better this year than
ever before The classes seemed infused
with greater spirit and the presence OF
the large orchestra gives added zest and
vim 10 the effect.
The papers read were uniformly good
and showed careful thought and prepara-
tion, while betraying no small amount OF
true literary excellence. The subjects va
ried widely and the audience was fully as
entertained by "A Schoolgirls Interpre-
tation OF Shakespeares Tragedies" as by
THE Development OF Wireless Telegra-
ply" In each case the material was pre-
sented in n clear and interesting fashion
and the delivery was without exception
pleasing.
The scene from schiller's Mary Stuart"
was very ably done by two young women
OF the class.
