GRADUATING EXERCISES AT INGLESID1 | SCHOOL.
 The graduating exercises of Ingle side school, Tuesday at high noon brought out select audience which crowded the pretty hall at the school including the balcony. The front o1 theIhall was prettily decorated witf laurel and ferns, while the figures 1905 in purple, stood out in bold relief The faculty of the school, with Mrs Black and Rev Dr Ernest Milbourne Stires, occupied seats on the platform Rev K. B. Draper presided during the graduating exercises and presented the diplomas in we'll chosen words. As the graduating class and pupils of the school entered the hall they sang the following beautiful marching song: From the hilltop comes greeting, Comes the dream ot future fair.
 Maidens who have won the Laurel,
 Who the Violet's virtues prove,
 Bear on high their worthy mascot,
 Sails all set. the ship they love.
 Thirteen times the note has sounded,
 Thirteen times the parting word,
 Mystic number, nothing daunted, Highland sisters' send their greeting, rSI Luck attend you all lI1I the sway; way;
 Shall attend this thirteenth day" Thirteen maidens. Alma Mater,
 Grave thy blessing e'er they go;
 Loyal maidens they will love you,
 They are leaving sci sshoolHsiri pleasures. Bless them! Alma Mater, % bless them,
 They are thine whate'er betide
 Send them sunshine send thsm gladness,
 Bid them charm the weary world
 Sail their ship with flying colors
 Canvas set and flags unfurled.
 Cares may come, they will not falter,
 "Diligence'' shall be their motto
 And Success" shall crown each life.

 The address of pr Stires was exceed ingly helpful, sensible and practical. A few of the many good points he brought out were: beSeech you, young ladies, do not neglect the old fashioned virtues. What the world needs for woman is high and uplift- ing vision of what womanhood is. God has given the members of this graduating class gifts of comeliness, gifts of the grace of temperament, gifts of the power of the mind. What are you going to do with these things? You have one danger and one ambi- tiOn. Most men are preparing them selves for some specific vocation in life. It is not so as a rule in most girls schools and colleges. The danger in their education is that in not being prepared for anything in particular, they will not be fitted for any special vocation. You young women are being prepared to be leaders and officers in the great army of wOmanhOod. I ask you to realize some of the dignity which is being conferred upon you. It is your business as you go out in the world to be interested in people. Be kind. Be useful. If you love people because they are people it will show itself. Friendship is never mercena- ry. It gives and gives and gives. Give to the world the best you have and all you have and in so doing the best will come back to you.
