COMMENCEM MENT EXERCISES
Mineral Point High School Class
of 1922.

The graduation exercises on Friday
night marked the close of another
successful year in our schools. Thir-
ty-seven young men and women sue
cessfully completed their high school
courses and will launch out to higher
learning, business, farming and other
vocations and professions. The same
opportunities were offered to all.
Some have profited more by their
contacts with their teachers and their
fellow students than others and are
thus better fitted to continue in the
race ahead. All have been trained
to be good citizens and much will be
expected from them.
Wesley Martin received the high
est average mark during his high
school career and was therefore
chosen to deliver the valedictory ad-
dress which he did in well chosen
words with clear delivery.
Helen Brown ranked as the stud
ent receiving the second highest aver
age mark and was consequently
chosen to- deliver the address of well
come. This she did in pleasing
way.
AS president of the class Bernard
Schill presented the memorial which
the class left to the entire commun-
ity in the form of the 1922 edition of
the high school Annual, The Pointer.
The publication of this yearbook
would have been impossible without
the financial assistance of the class.
Prof. Harry Glicksman of the Uni
versity of Wisconsin, delivered the
address to the graduating class. He
stressed strongly the idea of finding
ones place and then fitting ones self
to fill the place. He showed that in
the main the mind is either scientific,
practical or literary or combination
thereof. His address was well re-
ceived by the class.
Helen Martin and Marion HuXtable
sang a commencement song which
was greatly appreciated by the aud
ience.
DR.. w. M. Gratiot presented the
graduated with their diplomas in his
usual pleasing manner. He also
showed picture of the proposed
high school.
