Commencement Week in Winslow
The first exercises of Winslow
High school commencement began
Sunday morning, when an audience
which filled the WinsIow Congrega-
tional church to the doors and vesti-
bule, listened to an inspiring Baccal-
aureate sermon delivered by Rev. F.
S. Dolliff, who took as his subject
1.-THE Plan of God" from the 18th
chapter of Romans, and his sermon
was forcefully and well given. Miss
Muriel Wood of the Coburn School
of Music, rendered very delightful
vocal solos. accompanied by Mrs.
Harriet Patterson of this town. The
senior and junior classes were pre-
sent in a body and occupied the
front seats in the church. An orches-
ira rendered very pleasing music and
there was a choir as usual.
In the evening, the regular Christ
ian Endeavor meeting was combined
in a social meeting. held upstairs IN
the church. An orchestra, the per-
sonnet of which was Viola Blake,
piano; violins. Delmiro Taddei and
Gerald Barton; cello, Arthur Put
nam; trombone. Mel Britton, and cor
net, Kendall Howard, rendered sew
eral pretty selections, and accompan-
led the hymns. A fine vocal solo was
rendered by Harold Taylor, accom-
panied by Mrs. Harriet Patterson. A
rare treat was given to the audience
when Hon. Frank G.. Harrington
spoke to the assemblage on the Pre-
ambie to the Constitution of the
American Legion, and clearly ex-
planned this vital subject In a way
that could not fail to reach every
one. His address was greatly en-
joyed by all. and it was very graft
flying to see the large number of
people who came to greet him. Mr..
Harrington brought out one very
beautiful thought, and that was that
no one, young or old, should be
filiation to Christ, giving manifesto
ton as whole heartedly and unre-
servedly as they make admission
that they are pledged to and in al
legiance with a fraternal order. Many
beautiful illustrations of this thought
were given by this interesting speak
err, and throughout his whole address
he completely held his listeners. The
program closed with a very beautiful
selection by Mr.. Taddel and Mr.. Put
nam, with Mrs. Harriet Patterson as
accompanist, and Rev. F. S. Dolliff
pronounced the benediction.
The members of the Junior and
senior classes of Winslow High
High school will hold their annual
banquet at the Rose Croix Inn to-
night at o'clock. The class HIS
tory. will and prophecy will be given
at this time.
