burning question of the day. State
legislation is Intellectual. The solu-
ton of the entire problem lies in fed
eral control of the combines.
The orchestra then rendered another
agreeable number, after which Miss
Hutchinson delivered a very able ora
tioa. Miss Hutchinson prefaced her
remarks by citing the various forms
of the drama in medieval times. Th>
miracle play and the passion play
were the two more important forms.
The latter has survived to the pres
ent day in the Passion Play Of Ober-
ammergau. She then briefly describ-
ed the Passion Play and told how
each performer of the different parts
moulded his life for the ten years
between each spectacle in accordance
with the character he assumed in the
play. From this fact she drew the
conclusion that men, by living the
lives of their ideals, may become
more and more like them every day.
The valedictory address was then
delivered by Miss Ada Maurer. She
mentioned the story Of the handsome
ly uniformed officer who was present
ed to Napoleon. The sharp eyes of
the great Corsican penetrated the
silken sashes and golden braid of the
man who appeared to be so brave,
and seemed to search the fellows
very soul. The hero OF Austerlitz
asked just one question, what has
he done?" Governments are judged
by the rest of the world for what
they have done and not for what they
have promised to do. Great charact-
ers are the makers of history. One
must develop character in order to
arise to greatness. Men should make
their actions pleasing to the Supreme
Ruler of the universe, SO that their
lives will be a fitting answer to His
final query, What hast thou done?"
Miss Maurer then extended the
thanks of the class to the citizens of
Bismarck for their interest in the
high school and the class OF 1910 in
particular. Also to the board of edu-
cation and to the corps Of teachers
under whom they had attained their
knowledge. The teachers influence is
Ia powerful factor in the lives of their
pupils. Turning to her classmates,
she then traced briefly their course
through the high school. If they
would remain there, the river of their
lives would become stagnant. They
must mingle with the broad ocean of
life. Lessons of experience must be
learned which no school can teach.
These can best be met by honesty,
faithfulness, and a firm trust in God.
1.-THE world will judge US by what we
do, and what we do ourselves will
count"
Misses Clara Tatley, Laura keenan,
and Nettie Blanchard then sang a
beautiful trio, assisted by Donald Nc
Donald on the violin and Miss Hor-
tense Moore at the piano. They were
forced to respond to an encore, which
was also heartily received.
Owing to the fact that Superintend-
ent Burnett had a severe cold, the
presentation of the class to Mr.. Rich
oft was dispensed with, although the
latter took occasion to thank the citi-
zels of Bismarck for the interest
shown by them during the past year
in the progress of the schools. He
also thanked the different teachers

performed, and congratulated the
class of 1910 upon the successful ter
mination of their high school career.
He had in his hand the diploma of
his own son, Frank, which he said he
would rather have signed than to
have given his boy present of five
thousand dollars, as he thought it
meant more to him.
President Richolt then presented
the members of the graduating class
with their diplomas. AS each pupil
stepped before the footlights to re-
ceive the coveted sheepskin, the
audience applauded Justify.
The seniors assembled at the front |
of the stage and sang their class song, |
following it up with their class yell, |
and the curtain was rung down upon !

ments ever held in Bismarck.

Following the graduation ceremon-
es, the members of the class repaired
n body to the parlors of the Nc
Cable Methodist church, where the
high school alumni rendered them the
banquet customary on such
occasions.
The parlors were prettily decorated
n green and gold, the class colors,
Ind there was profusion of flowers.
