Standing in front of this magnificent class
was G. ID. Jones, president of the Board of
Education of this city, who was to present the
diplomas. 1t was a source OF great pleasure
10 the class to have Mr.. Jones make the address
and presentation, he had done on many like
OCCASIONS and it was often heard expressed by
the graduates that they counted it a crowning
feature of their school life to have him do the
honOrS at this time. 1t was several moments
before Mr.. Jones was able to proceed on
account OF the applause with which the gradu-
ateS were greeted Before commencing on the
principal work of the hour, he stated that he
had very pleasant duty TO perform; that the
local branch of the National German-American
Alliance OF this city, as II had done on several
previous commencement exercises had ar
ranged for three prizes to be given to the
members of the class who had excelled in
German during the four years of study. They
we're awarded, viz: Miss Dagmar E. Hansen
first; Miss Frieda NJ. Behrendt second, and
Miss Hazel Monan third. These young ladies
stepped forward and received their gifts as
their names were called. Mr.. Jones. as usual
gave q most inspiring address, replete with
excellent thought and advice, in which he
urged the graduates to assume their RESPONSE
bilitieS with courage and with an aim to do all
things right. He called attention to the fact
that the prizes of the class had been won bv
young ladies, but he knew the boys would give
q good account of themselves.
He complimented the class very highly and
said that he believed it to be one of the finest
ever graduated from the WauSau high school
The presentation of diplomas was then in
order, and after the benediction was said by
Rev. Z. c. Grauer, a reception followed and
the graduates received the sincere congratula-
tionS and best wishes for the future from their
many friends and relatives.
So passed into history the class of 1915.
While the PILOT has given much credit TO
the teachers for the success of the commence
ment exercises. let it be remembered that back
of the whole were two very able men-the city
superintendent, 5. s. Tobey, and the principal
of our high school, Ira c. Painter. Wausau is
to be congratulated on having two such edu-
Gators to superintend and direct the deStinieS
of our schools.
