Graduating Exercises

The graduating exercises Of the Penn
bina High School according to the pro-
gram published last week were held last
Friday evening and the City Hall was
filled to its capacity with the friends Of
the graduates. The essays OF the young
ladies and the gentlemen were all good,
especially were they good in matter CT
originality. They had faults enough to
prove their origin-and in such cases
this is not a fault. The class history bt
Miss Anderson and the class prophesy
by Miss Harvey we're in lighter vein
and were full of amusing hits at the
classmates which were greatly enjoyed
by the audience. Vocal solos were CIV
en- by Mesdames Sherarts, Feldman and
Messrs. Newcombe (St. Vincent and
Full, all of which were received by the
audience with appreciative applause.
Misses Grace and Florence Eyford rem
dered a pretty piano duet in pleasing
manner. State Superintendent, Stock
well gave an address which was full of
thought and recommendations in school
methods and work. One idea was that
school education should be more practi-
cal. That sometimes the boy who was
dull in books, was afterward found to
be master with tools. That manual
training is coming feature in school
work. He also spoke of the economy of
what is usually thought of as expensive
j the town high school. He contrasted
the expense of sending away children to
other cities with the expense of paying
for the same education at home. Mr..
Stockwell as usual made an interesting
and entertaining talk. With some ex-
cellent advice accompanying, he then
presented the diplomas to the following
graduates:-Rhoda Beatrice Fowler,
Violet Mildred Anderson, Estella Ber-
neice Noyes, Alice Mabel Aylen, Vera
Marian Ewing and Ralph Clair CHS
