he brought to triumphant close by
presenting to the High School beau
tifully framed picture of the immortal

High School Night at the Ohio St.
Methodist Church last Tuesday night
was great success. The students first
assembled at the Baptist Church and
then marched over in body, waving
their colors and giving the good old But
Ter yell. Seats had been reserved for
them in the centre section of the church
and as they filed in they were greeted
by round after round of hearty applause
from the audience. Prof. Seaman, Miss
CRUDE, Mrs. Hill and Miss S1ider &C.
companied the students. For about
thirty-five minutes the songs and yells
of the High School were given; after
wdich a count of the students was made
to determine whether the boys or the
girls had the largest percentage of the
enrolled members present. To the sur
prise of all it was found that 70 per
cent of the boys were present, while
only Sc per cent of the girls were rep
resented. According to his promise
Mr.. Davis presented the winners with
Acres of Diamonds. The High
School-Mandolin Club and the White
Brigade girls were enjoyable features
It the evening after which Mr.. Davis
preached an excellent and stirring SER
non to the students. High School night
will long be favorably remembered by
he students.
