HIGH SCHOOL COMMENCEMENT

Program to Be Given by the Gradu-
ates and an Address by DR..
Harshaw Of Junction City.

The fifth annual commencement ex-
ercises Of the Sherman county high
school viii be held this year at the
GoodIand opera house, Friday even
ing, May 25- The graduating class IS
composed OF four, Jessie H Vincent
Claude Coleman, Charles Mallory ana
Lowell Shaw This class Of gradu-
ates have finished their senior year
with much credit to themselves and
their instructors They are gradual
ing from the three-year high school
course, as they entered before the
three-year schedule had been length
ened TO four years but in all prob
ability the graduates from the nSn
school hencefOrth will have to comply
with the new regulations The per
cent Of high school graduates from
among the large number Of pupils
that attend the grades is comparative
" small, and not many Of those who
graduate from the high school avail
themselves Of the privileges Of a col
lege education. It is, therefore more
imperative that our county high
school shall be broad and thorough
in every particular, so that the young
people who are graduated from such
an institution may go out into the
world with an education that they
may never be ashamed Of In fact,
the common and high school training,
when well done, constitutes the great
bulk Of the education Of even the col
lege graduate. College training IS, OF
course, an excellent thing, on account
of its great ggeStiVeneSS, leading one
into avenues OF thought that might
otherwise escape his attention forever.
The more education one has, COM
bined with gumptiOn and good sense,
the more surely will he succeed in his
lines Of C1deayOr. Education bSgetS
confidence in ones ability; creates an
independent thinker it makes every
man more Of a man, and every WOm-
an more OF a woman. So that, while
f. ~n-- ~
the training that the young people
may receive in such an institution as
the Sherman county high school IS
inestimable, and the people Of the
county look for larger and better
things to come in the way Of county
education.
