A pretty chorus by girls of the
high school "The Last Rose Of Su M
mer" followed the awarding Of the
diplomas, after which Supt. Crane
introduced Hon. ". L. Stock we'll,
state superintendent OF, public in-
struction. who made the commence
ment address, speaking at length and
effectively.
The subject Of his address was
s'The Mission Of Education," devot-
ing almost the entire address to one
idea, that education should tend to-
wards the conservation Of the natur-
al resources Of our country, especially
the forests, coal and. iron, which are
fast being exhausted. He believed in
introducing more courses in the
study Of forestry, agriculture, man
ual training, etc. The address was
listened to attentively BY. the grad
yates and audience, and heartily
annlanded.
AT the close OF the address Mr..
Steel Of the board Of education pre-
sented the diplomas to the high
scnool graduates, each mem Der be
ing applauded as he or she came for
to receive the much coveted sheep
skin. In short, earnest talk Mr..
Steel impressed the high school SEN
iors with tile fact that the hard work
only which they had done during
their courses, had been Of value; that
education was not means Of get
ting q living later without hard work,
Is seemed 10 be the idea Of some,
y but rather q training which In after
1: years would enable the graduates to
4 slo more work and to greater effect.
