Evening Chat
Commencerent pay chanoes.


While attending commencement day
exercises in one of the schools in this
city recently, it occurred to me how
differently these exercises are conduct.
cd nowadays rs compared with ten
years ago.
Up until that time such thing as
q commencement address delivered to
the class was unheard Of and the
members OF the graduating class them
selves, furnished the various numbers
which made up the program.
Hours, days, weeks and even months
OF preparation were mads by youns
women and men on orations, essays or
recitations--in order that when 1t
oame their time to step TO the front of
tho platform and make their bow
they might acquit themselves with
credit and also do honor to the insti-
tuition which was graduating them.
Questions that affected, town, state
and nation were threshed out, some
times dozens OF them, into the willing
ears of parents. sisters, brothers or
swes:hearts and at the conclusion OIL
the program and after the valedictor-
fan had proudly delivered his or her
speech" the audience with one accord
locked to the platform to embrace.
shake hands with and congratulate
the young people on the splendid man
The West Virginian. [volume] (Fairmont, W. Va.) 1914-1974, 1919-06-19

ner in which they had acquitted them
selves, and incidentally upon their hav.
ing successfully completed the pre-
scribed course of study which entitled
them to graduate from the institution.
The graduating class entered the
auditorium to the strains OF music
played by a strlnged orchestra and
proudly took their places in a semi.
circle about the platform. The young
women were attired in lovely crea.
lions Of white with large bouquets and
carried in their hands not only tho
usual fan but also the essay or Grafton
to be delivered later while the young
men, clad in correct black, seated be-
tween the young women awkwardly
yielded the fans Of their fair compan.
ians.
And the commencement gifts. A
profusion OF flowers, books Of all de-
scriptions and packages tied In white
tissue paper and with the class colors
provided by doting friends were be.
tween the performances and while the
orchestra discoursed sweet music,
carried to the platform b.; .--.e., und
placed at the feet Of the pe1-u.. WISE
name they bore.
So crowded would the platform be.
come as the exercises progressed that
those who appeared last on the pro-
gram experienced considerable diff.
Guilty in reaching the front and often
had to step over flowers and packages.
Then the diplomas were presented.
If 1t was Normal school commence
ment they were presented by some
member OF the state board Of regents.
If 1t were the High school member
OF the Board OF Education performed
this necessary function.
Then followed impromptu addresses
and anyone who happened to want to
air himself with a few remarks was
given the opportunity and at the Nor.
NAL school the exercises which began
at nine o'clock usually lasted well
into the afternoon.
Before Fairmont took on such city
airs-Normal commencement used to
be the event of the early summer.
House parties were planned for this
season. Wardrobes were replenished
and all sorts of plans made and no.
body thought of missing the COM
mencement day exercises.
These things have also changed
somewhat and now while the exercises
are well attended It is usually by an
audience made up of immediate
friends OF the graduates or members
OF the alumni Of the school.
Nowadays an address usually by an
out OF town person, a few selections of
music by the members of the class, the
presentation OF the diplomas and all is
over. And the custom now prevails to
send gifts for the graduates to their
homes and none are in evidence at the
graduating exercises.
