-Millersburg is once more in hol-
iday attire, and is dressed in a new
gown, lnasmuch as we are enjoying
the first High School Commence
ment season ever held in our little
city. The baccalaurate sermon was
preached Sunday night by Rev.
Greer, of the. Paris Methodist
church, and was an able discourse.
The reception given ON Monday
evening by the High School to the
Seniors was the first event of it's
kind ever held here, and was a pro-
nounced success. The play Tuesday
evening, "All On Account of Polly"
was enjoyed by all present. The
characters were well selected, and
showed that they had taken their
training nicely, under the direction
of Miss Patsy Clarke, instructor in
music and expression. Wednesday
was busy day. The exercises open
ed at 1890 a. m. The grounds
were well filled with people. At
1920 there was flag raising, with
appropriate exercises and patriotic
music. At 100 a. m. in the audito-
RUM, Ed. Ira Boswell, pastor of the
Georgetown Christian church, deliv-
cred brilliant address, which was
indeed a masterpiece of patriotism.
At noon a bountiful lunch was served
to all present. Supt. Lancaster urg-
ed that no one leave the grounds,
that ample provision had been made
for every one, which was true.
Prof. Lancaster and his faculty. de-
serve much credit for the manner In
which the entire commencement thus
far has been conducted. At 200 p.
m. Wednesday the Pagan Spectacu-
lar Play entitled America of Yes
terday and To-day" was put on on
the front lawn. In this all the school
children took part, representing
America, from the time of her dis
covery in the days of the red man,
down to the present. All the parts
were well taken and equally well ex-
ecuted. We regret that space will
not permit us to comment on every
group individually, as every part of
this work deserve special mention.
This was the best production Of its
kind ever given here and we propose
to make this day of the High School
Commencement exercises an annual
get-to-gether day.
