Class of eighteen received di
plomas. This is the largest
class ever graduated from the
Chandler High School and in
proportion to population the
largest class in any city of the
new state.
The exercises began with a
piano solo by Mrs. Lena Poster,
which was received witli a gen-
erous applause by the apprecia-
tive audience.
The Invocation was delivered
by [Rev. .J. C. Barker in his
usual impressive manner.
At the last moment it was
found impossible for the Gov-
ernor to leave Guthrie, on ac-
count of pressing public busi-
ness attendant upon closing day
of the Legislature.
Mr. Stettinuud, however, se-
cured the services of the Hon. C.
A. Skeene, representative from
Johnson Co. Mr. Skeene was
of course was taken at a disad-
vantage, in not having time for
preparation, but to the audience
Mr. Skeenes address came ap-
parently or from one who had
spent time and labor in its pre-
paration.
The speaker is an earnest and
eloquent advocate of home edu-
cation. He stated that he had
voted for every appropriation for
educational purposes. The
speaker is enthusirstic in behalf
of industrial educution. He is
convenced that Oklahoma, with
out education can have but little
influence in the council of her
sister states, but with education
our magnificent state is destined
to take high rank in the republic
of common wealths. Mr, Skeene
is certainly an eloquent and
forceful speaker, and Johnson
County is fortunate in being so
well repaesented and the people
of our city were fortunate in hav-
ing him to address our gradu-
ates.
On account of the large size of
the class it was divided, fourteen
of them being in the drama.
“The Ministers Romance,”
which was given to a large audi-
ence Thursday evening.
T.ie next exercise was the
Salutatory by Hazel Neighbour,
subject “Over the Alps Lies
Italy.” The argument tending
to show that obstacles are no
bar to success; that our charact
er is strengthened rather than
weakened by barriers that lie
like mountains in our pathway.
Classic allusions and poetic quo-
tation apt, foresful and beautiful
poem written in Hexameter
verse with alternate rhymes
theme ‘‘Looking Backward” was
interred with the hopes and as-
pirations of the future; replete
with beautiful thought and
chased sentiment and delivered
in a manner that would have been
creditable to a professional read-
er. This poem is a splendid
production. In thought meter
and sentiment, it is considerably
above the average found in cur-
rent literature.
Bertha Poster, Valedictory,
“Fortune Smiles upon our First
Attempts,” was handh d in a op-
tomistic style, the hopes of
youth and the continual yearn-
ings for brighter prospects were
set forth in such a charming
manner that one forgot the
down pour of rain and its attend-
ant noises.
1 lie close of the oration was
addressed to the people of
f handler, the press, school
board, parents, teachers and
class mates in a most feeling
and eloquent manner. Miss
Bertha had a kind word for all
with whom she had come in con-
tact during her school life in
Chandler. It was thoughtfully
prepared and beautifully de-
livered.
The exercises closed with the
presentation of the diplomas and
the usual congratulations of the
assembled friends.
A common remark. The girls
vveic all handsome in their beau-
tiful white gowns and cream
roses and the boys were all man-
ly looking fellows.
A happy thought. A life of
usefulness is before each mem-
ber of the class, and may every
one be successful inthe varied
pursuits of life.
