NOT LIKE THE REST.
Commencement of Assumption School
a Decided Novelty.

An audience which filled the Craw-
ford theater witnessed the commence
ment exercises of the School of the
Assumption last night. The pro-
gramme was notable for its departure
from the beaten track of school enter
talnments and that it was enjoyed by
those present was attested by the close
attention accorded and the frequent
and hearty applause.
It was made up largely of drills and
spectacular effects, interspersed with
musical selections, we'll rendered.

lowing class of graduates:
Emily Ryan, Viva Brown, Eta Ash
ton, Josephine Dyer, Mary James, Mel
