Thursday, June the 1866
graduating class presented its
commencement exercise on coll
ored film, and in motion.
Seventy-eight pupils finished
one phase of their LIES work. In
the years to come, each gradu-
ate is apt to look back upon the
period of his student life as hav-
ing been much of a battle, where
in he has had to ,grapple with
great giants of every known Sci-
ence and philosophy and come of
from each encounter either victor
or vanquished.
The finished course is another
triumph in which the true stu
dent of life must rejoice. But,
after all, the real test of young
womanhood lies in the last clause
Of the text" / have fought a
good fight, have finished my
course; have kept the faith.
