 The class will, bestowing and be- queathing long treasured gifts upon the juniors, was well given by Mabel Moorman.
 The class giftorian, Marie Taylor, made it evident that many precious gifts were not withheld by so gener- ous class as this, and the last num- Der, the presentation of the key, was impressively given, by Marbry Hen ming.

 The flowers and music combined to make the setting complete, while the addresses seemed to be unusually im- pressive, tending to make not only the ones more thoughtful, but the grown-ups as well. How glad all were to know that just now education is receiving an impetus as never be- fore. That it should be so all are willing to concede.
 The morning program was as fol- lows:
 The Serenade. Allen Macbeth
 N. A. N. S. Orchestra. Invocation,
 Father C. Vabre
 President J. O. Creager The Swing Song. Frederick Lohr
 N. A. N. s. Glee Club of Diplomas,
 Mir J. F. Walker 
 Father c. Vabre
 Tine high school graduates were for tunate in choosing President J. 0. Creaper to deliver the commencement address. President Creager is very forcible speaker. His address was scholarly, but more than that it was wholesome and practical and sincere and inspiring. It was an analysis of the qualities that go to make up the American citizen. MT. Creager sees through and around every subject to which he gives his consideration, ana in his address nothing was overlook. ed. "Who is an American Citizen! He that earns his own living and little more; he that lives his own life and a little more; he that thinks for himself and little more. The emphasis hinged on the idea of ! "little bit more" We must earn tying but must cooperate so as to ,elp others earn theirs; we must live ,ur own lives, but contribute that which will enrich the lives of others; we must think for ourselves and be ready to defend our honest convic- ions and yet be tolerant of those who liffer from us. And in conclusion, Mir Creager quoted from an address on Napoleon Boneparte, the greatest sol Her of the modern world. His great achievements are enumerated, but when the widows and orphans he made, and the tears shed for his glory are recalled he concludes that, T would rather have been a French peasant and worn wooden shoes. I would rather have lived in hut with , vine growing over the door, and the grapes growing purple in the amor ous kisses of the autumn sun; would rather have been that poor peasant, with my loving wife by my side, knit ting as the day died out of the sky with my children upon my knees and their arms about me; l would rather have been that man, and gone down to the tongueless silence of the dream less dust, than to have been that inn perial impersonation of force and murder, known as Napeoleon the Great"
 The afternoon program as given was:
