ed, and those on the class night pro-
gram are preparing novel ways Of
presenting the class history, prophe-
cy, journal and other features which
recall the school days of the" grads. )"
1t is needless to say that the minis
ters throughout Dorset, who have
been honored by being asked to de-
liver the baccalaureate sermons, will
have a voluminous amount of advice
for those who are about to step out
upon the duties accompanying busi-
ness and professional careers. The
drygoods merchant also plays his
part in this play of pathos, tragedy
and comedy, for the sweet girl grad
yates are much concerned about their
frocks, and the merchants and dress
makers of the town vie in making
this the supreme moment of their
young lives, without disappointment
and worry, which generally go hand
in hand with the making of dress.
