Model High Graduation.
Commencement season at the uni
versity calls to mind the fact that year
by year the educational institutions of
this commonwealth are coming to be
more genuinely state institutions. The
membership of the class of twenty
seven who received their diplomas of
completion from the model high
school last illustrates this fact. Only
five are registered as from Grand
Forks n one of this number never
attended school in this city. They
come from all parts of this state and
of the northwest and practically all of
them are from villages or small cities
where no complete. four-year high
schools are maintained. The records
In Superintendent Schmidt's office
show that very few of the 1874 stu
dents who We're enrolled in the model
high school during the past year are
doing all of their high school work
there. Some need one year to round
out a high school course and some
need more. Only a negligible fraction
are from places where adequate high
school facilities are available.
OF the class who finished last night,
twenty are young men and seven are
young women This division differs
materially from the proportion usually
In a high school class. Another inter-
esting fact is that the average e of
the class is close to twenty years. Sup
crintendent Schmidt is authority for
the statement that n deep earnestness
of purpose, is evident in all Of the
work of the school. 1t is only young
people possessed of real ambition who
will persevere in the quest of an edu-
cation in spite of the handicap i'm
posed by a lack of proper facilities at
home and perhaps the setback Incl
dent to moving to North Dakota from
some other state.
Saturday Nights Exercises.
The exercises Of Saturday evening
were held in the auditorium of Wood
worth hall. which was suitably decor
ated for the occasion. A. number OF
visitors from over the state were pres
ent. AS We're also a considerable gath
ering of friends from the city. An In
teresting program was rendered, sub
stantially as follows:
