final SCHOOL WEEK
is HERE ONCE MORE
Examinations Being Held
Commencement Exercises
Friday, Other Features

The final week of the school year is
now with us or rather with the three
thousand and more pupils and the one
hundred or more teachers.
Today examinations are being held
in the several grades and high school.
The grading and marking will be com
pleted by the teachers Thursday and
Friday. At l 'clock Friday afternoon
pupils of all grades will report to their
schools and receive what is coming to
them in the way of promotions.
Wednesday evening the glee club of
the high school will appear at the ar
mo1y to show what they can do in the
way of entertaining the people from a
musical standpoint. A crowd is assured
as the pupils of the high school have
1000 tickets to sell, which they doubt
less will do as the price is only ten
cents and about 600 pupils are doing
the selling.
The commencement exercises for the
close of the school year will be held
Friday evening at the armory. Follow
ing a custom of past years, each of the
l37 graduates is given six tickets and
all of the 100 teachers in the city are
T6mcuDcltu IL lC LOtdA hulllbGI biuo
given out is about 900 and seats in the
center of the auditorium will be reserv-
ed for this number of friends of the
graduates. There is no charge whatev-
er for the graduating exercises.
This year, the evenings program will
be entirely different from those of for
mer years. Instead of one long address,
the pupils of the graduating class will
make up the program. The six who will
appear have been chosen for special
merits. The two standing the highest
in scholarship for the past two years
are Alice Welch and Hugh Walker and
they will speak from the platform. Two
were elected by the student body of the
high school, its selection being Paul
Pierce and Florence Scheurle. Two
were chosen by the teachers, and their
choice fell on Harold Aspinwall and
Helen Hogue. These six chosen students
will make up the program for the ev-
ening with few words spoken by Jas.
W. Palmer of the Portland Y. M. 9.

chorus. The diplomas will be delivered
by A. A. Lee, chairman Of the board
of education. @

proved with the consent of q majoFity
