BOOTH HAD VARIATION
His Grafton at the High School This
Morning Was Wei.
Received.

During this mornings chapel serv-
c n high schoc students were
treated to something of a variation In
the line of subjects of the senior ora
tons when George Booth delivered
a conception Of The Speech of Cassius
as 1t might have appeared in Shakes
peare's julius Caesar. 1t tended more
towards the argumentive style thar
any that has been given this rear.
The rise of the great Roman, from
the viewpoint of one Of the conspir-
ators, was well described and the rea-
sons to justify the assassination were
graphically presented. The subject
well fitted to the speakers natural
abilities and his effort was well re-
ceived by the audience.
