last two years of which was done by
the heir to the original homesteader
was sufficient to obtain land from the
government, and that they right is

Tine operahouse and the stage es-
pecially were beautifully decorated for
the occasion, ferns, bay trees, palms
and cut flowers being used in profu-
sion to secure most harmonizing eff
feet. When the curtain rose at $50
it revealed the entire forty-seven
members of the class grouped in a
semi circle about the stage. The young
ladies were all dressed in white. and
the class In their beautiful setting
formed a most charming and inspiring
picture.
Rev. Charles r. Adams of the First
Presbyterian church and a member of
the school board, gave the invocation.
The first number was the salutatory
address by Miss Mae Hooper who
spoke on The New Earth. Her address
was teeming with brilliant thoughts,
clever ideas and optimism.
The comic opera, Priscilla, the first
part of which was given following
Miss Hooper's address scored a big
hit. The parts were in excellent hands
and every one OF the soloists repre-
sented his particular character per-
fectly.

difncult part easily and he also scored
big hit with the audience. William
Bradford, the governor was well
handled by John Eaton, who made a
very dignif1ed and highly amusing

won her way into the hearts Of the
audience. The other characters were
Miss Marjory Rusch, Miss Emma Mil
Ter and Miss Florence Webster who
took the parts of ''three Mayflower
buds" Each carried her part easily
and in a very pleasing manner.
The balance of the class took the
part of the chorus and their work
showed that they had been excellently
trained.
Miss Edna Dunning, supervisor of

drilling and rehearsals deserves I'M
