The commercial. (Union City, Tenn.) 190?-193?, 1906-05-25


Public High School is near at hand.
The exercises this year will be in.
augurated By the baccalaureate SER
mon in the Cumberland Presbyteri-
an Church next Sunday by Rev. ].
J. Castleberry. The regular exam
nations will begin the following
Monday and will close on Friday.
when all reports will be handed out
and all the work of the session
closed.
One unique feature this year will
be an entertainment at the opera
house Thursday night, to be known
as class day exercises. The pro-
gramme will embrace a debate by
tour Of the junior boys, as to the
advisability of Obion County's issu-
ing bonds for roads. AS the road
question is one of the live things
before the public, the efforts OF our
young orators will doubtless be lis.
tened to with much interest.
Another number of til pro.
gramme which will excite much in
terest is The Promenade of the
New York Bellies, whose name sug-
gests its character, and still anoth-
err exercise is The Trinity Mou-
wants. which will be better under
stood and appreciated when seen.
Practice for all these exercises has
been going on for several weeks
and every effort is being made to
make them the very best possible.
One of the most important num-
bers on the programme is entitled
"Scenes from Shakespeare" in
which certain leading characters Of
the great dramatist will be repre-
sented in costume in some one of
the best known scenes in the more
important dramas.
There will be high school song
written for the occasion by Miss
Wayne Miller and set to music by
Mr.. Ownby. These and other fea-
lures will certainly make the class
1ay exercises one of the leading
features OF the joyous commence
nent week OF our City High School.
