PRIM0'S TWO GIRLS | REMAIN SECLUDED
Maintain Traditional AloofneSs
 Of Ancient Spanish Women

Madrid, Spain, June 21 R@The two daughters of the marquis de Estella, head of the Spanish gov ernment, remain in the traditional seclusion that has been the lot or Spanish women for centuries. Carmen de Rivera. 20, and Maria Pillar de Rivera, IS, are much Tn demand but they seldom accept so- cal enga gements. Almost the only time they ever appear is upon so- cial occasions designed to aid charity.
 The two girls remain modest and simple as in the old days when their father was merely Primo de Rivera, an army general on con- paratively small salary. They nei- ther smoke nor drive automobiles, as do many of the modern Spanish senoritas.
 Both girls were educated in Spanish convcnts under their aunt's direction their mother having died when they were quite small
 As matter of fact. il is only in Madrid that the so-called mod ern' girl has made her appearance in any noteworthy numbers. The old costumes of Spain are disap- bearing from the streets Of the capital but in the provinces they still retain their sway over the feminine heart.
 Feminism in Spain perhaps is pest exemplifed by the formation of a woman'S LyCeuSl club, but there has been some difficulty in getting this organization in full stride. Some attempts have been made 10 divert the organization from it's cultural aspects and out look of feminism to a more re- Iigious point of view. Many of the members object to this.

Miss Ruth Fitzgerald of Hartford president of the graduating class read a letter to the audience from MT. Ames in which he expressed re- gret at not being able to attend the Dr. Marcus White was to retire after Dr. Marcus White WIS to retire after the graduation. The letter added that the local school ranks among the best in the east and in the whole country, thanks to the methods in- troduced and perfected by the re- tiring head. These remarks were greeted with thunderous applause from the gathering.
 Dean Jones then added his tribute to that of MT. Ames and said that the state board of education regrets sincerely the loss of the man who for 35 years has built up the local school.
 In a short informal talk. Dean Jones said that with the presenta- tion of diplomas the state vas seni- ing out the girls of the graduating class as ambassadors, diplomats and of the state. The state is no philsnthropist, Is not handing out charity, and when it expends money it seeks return. Tt is making you teachers so that you may instill learning into the young to make good citizenship, and, remember that you are the states ambassadors whether you are in Q classroom or a home" he added.
 No Barrier to Marriage
 He continued 10 say that the girls have the right to marry if at any time they feel they are better off in home than ia teaching a class. Public policy demands that nothing be done to discourage matrimony. he said. The speaker told the girls that if they teach school as long as the state hopes they will. they will surely have learned enough to pick a eool husband when they finally choose one.
 Ovation For Dr. White
 After Dean Jones had presented the diplomas, Dr. White was pre- sented with two huge baskets of flowers. The graduates and their friends rose and gave Dr. White an unanimous vote of thanks by ap- plauding long and loud. What had
New Britain herald., 1929-06-22

been joyful afternoon was suddenly hushed with solemn thoughts as the large gathering suddenly realized that the city and the state were los- ing one of the foremost educators in the east.
 Surrounded by the flowers pre- sented to him. Dr. White told his listeners that he did not feel like talking. He said that it was not easy for him to give up his place here. Continuing Dr. White remarked that even greater than his pride in being principal for 35 years was his grati- tude for the support which the state board of education had given him, and even greater, the joy he felt at having been able to associate with the teachers who work with him and the young people.
 Two Plays Presented
 The program of graduation in- cluded two plays. One entitled. Darby and Joan" and the other, "The Swineherd." Those taking part in the plays were as follows: Florence Garrity, Hulda Bengtson, Rose Risley, Rose Fitzgerald, Edna Larson, Laura Halberstam, Zelda Blackman, Phyllis Hayden. Marion Muller, Magdalen Valentine. Merle Daniels, Anna Murphy, Lily Calm back. Dorothy Walden and Baptista Pagano.
 Songs were sung by Harriet Foley and Fannie Niemiec. The Normal school glee club also sang a number of selections.
