Hayes Memorial Training School, was the
scene of large gathering last night, the
occasion being the commencement eXer-
cises, which were opened with short serv-
ice, followed with vocal selection by MISS
Matte E. Gray. Miss Janet E. Kemp de-
livered an address on the work of the
school for the year. After the class chorus
had sung ITO Thee, o Country" the ad-
| dress to the graduates was made by Rev.
Bishop Earl Cranston, DID,, who said In
| part:
| 1T is not so difficult to win a diploma
| as 1t is to live up to it. The certificates
given here may not mean as much in one
way those of a college or university.
But in another way they mean more. For
these say, You have learned to do which
is more than can be said of every grad
uate in the classics. To do one thing, and
that a great thing, is a distinct achieve
ment. People often use up their enthu-
siasm in preparation and have nothing
left for the actual work of life"
