Eighth Grade Commencement

I
sided. Prayer was offered by Rev.
A. N. Grove. The music included
two class songs, and the following
graduates gave recitations: Lena
Ross, Hazel Dunnington, Harold
Finley, George Barkhurst and Mar
garet Coulson. Catherine Sharp
gave a reading.
The address was given by Rev. J..
l.. Nuzum-. The young people of
this community have very high
regard for Rev. Nuzum, and his
splendid address was listened to
with rapt attention. Among other
good things he spoke of was the
fine material of M. & M. schools
the things that go to make for real
wealth-the boys and girls, the men
and women of the future. The
greatest responsibility of parents is
to their children-to see that they
are educated He urged those who
do not have children to get back of
other children-and to show real
| interest in the young people. An
| investment in them is the best in
vestment in the world. To make
for a successful life we must have
a vision, a purpose. We must be
careful to not let the many pitfalls
along the way sidetrack us. Guilt
vate patience, ourage-discover our
own power. Education is to see
our own faculties-to bring out the
very best that is in us, SO that we
| may take our rightful place in the
world. Look on the bright side of
| life-it takes many more muscles
of the face to produce a frown than
| it does to make smile. Don't
sour on the world. Cheerfulness is
! the fabrication that makes the
| world go round. The speaker urg-
ed the graduating class he was ac-
! dressing, not to let anything stand
| in the way of their going on
through high school. That they
were on the road to success stick
to it and go on through college if
possible
The diplomas were presented by
| County superintendent f.. A. Davis.
