The Shepherdstown Graded school.
The Shepherdstown Graded School
closed successful and satisfactory years
work last Friday, when the annual COM
mencement exercises were held, under
the direction OF Principal Chas. T. Smooth.
The programme was of more than usual
excellence, and was enjoyed by a large
audience of friends and patrons OF the
school. Spirited songs appropriate to the
occasion were sung by the pupils, and
interesting recitations were rendered by
Ethel Hamrick, Julia Fenell, Helen Sell
vey, Alice Needy, Mary Reinhart, Harry
Snyder and Lamont Pyles, of the grad
uating class. An interesting and earnest
address was delivered by Rev. J. w.
Ware, of this place, his subject being
"The worth while of an education" and
he presented to the graduates the diplo-
mas showing that they had successfully
completed the course. An event thai
was awaited with intense interest was
the award OF the gold medal given by the
board OF education for the best all around
student OF the school. When Principal
Smooth announced Harry L. Snyder, Jr.,
as the winner of the much-coveted prize
there was great applause, showing that
the award was popular one. Rev. Mr..
Ware presented the medal in graceful
little speech of much feeling. Bernard
Whiting, on behalf OF the graduating
class, then presented to Principal Smooth
a handsome bouquet of carnations. AT
the conclusion of the exercises the grad
yates received the congratulations other
friends and were presented with flowers
and other gifts. The occasion was one

were present.
