SUCCESSFUL COMMENCEMENT.
ST. Johns Hall Packed to Overlooking
With Friends and Relatives of Those
Who Aequit Themselves With Hon
or TO Themselves and With
Credit to Their Teachers.

! " " Ihbh
'He conquers who endures.
was the motto five young men and
nine young women took last night
as their watchword and turning their
backs on LambertyiIle and its High
! School set their faces toward the
world with all its possibilities and all
the bright promises of the future,
cheered by the presence Of parents,
and friends and encouraged by
| the plaudits of their fellow townsmen
they started on the road each one
| fondly hopes and all pray, shall lead
them to success.
And their encouragement was great
too, the hall was packed from top
to bottom and in all that throng were
none but friends and none who we're
not deeply interested in the welfare
OF the class of 1905. Professor Kerr,
with proud satisfaction, says his
class receives the evidences of their
years of work and of the patient and
untiring labors of himself and the
teachers who guided their young
minds along the way to knowledge.
The directors of the school saw with
pleasure the result of their efforts
and the parents and the friends the
fruition of their hopes. These young
people are we'll equipped for the stern
battle of life and henceforth the re-
sponsibility for success or failure is
with them.
The graduates are Jeanette Van
Camp Barber, Elmer NJ. Conoyer,

Honor, Henry F. Malloy, Frederick
w. Massey Second Honor, Alice Beu-
lab Naylor, Ethel Mae Parker, Isabel

| The class colors were blue and gold,
and the class flower, yellow rose. A
| feature of the exercises was the music
which was furnish ed by the pupils of
the school and it demonstrated once
again what great results have been
accomplished in the vocal depart
ment of our schools.
In the limited space at our disposal
it is almost impossible to give in de-
tail the exercises of the evening
and it is enough to say that each
member of the class filled the part
assigned to him or her in a most
gratifying manner and left little to be
desired. The work of the class in
this exhibition showed great pains
taking care and thoroughness that
told an eloquent story of their attain
ments and how we'll they deserved
the honors that they were given.
The stage was beautifully decorated
III blue and white. On each side were
the class colors while in the centre
was banner on which was '05. The
stage and hall were also beautifully
decorated with rhododendrons.
