l contrast to last year.. favored the sev | eral school districts which held their graduation exercises on Friday after l noon and evening. Following the plan 1 of last year, the exercises of Broadway l school in the Central district were. held l at Slater hall, which was completely | filled with relatives and friends of the pupils. The graduating class and the 1 chorus were seated upon the platform, l the teachers occupying seats in the i front of the hall, where the members l of the board of education were also | seated.
 The participants acquitted them | selves with much credit, each being applauded for his or her work, while i the music proved feature of the evening. It was of the highest order and exceptionally well sung. The star chorus was the waltz song in three parts, Be Glad Lass and Lad, which
 was finely sung. Miss Thomas in her solo, Sing On, received loud applause, while the boys and the girls chorus numbers were decidedly pleasing. The orchestra of sixteen pieces pleased ev- eryone and showed the careful training 1 they had received under Prof. J. H. 1 George playing the overture Poet and Peasant, while the closing selection, On the Farm, was likewise cleverly given.
 The salutatory by Gertrude l.. Allen and the valedictory by Ronald M. Kim ball were given with fine expression and showed much thought, while all the recitations and declamations were , distinctly heard and we'll given. The selection by the quartette won much favor.
