MISS BERRY'S SPEECH
IS A NOTABLE FEATURE
By SELENE ARMSTRONG.
Milledgevllle, Ga., June 6.—Tuesday
MUledgeville "’a* "holly, under the
„ay of the girl graduate.
Her sedate uniform was seen on
dreet and campus, and the blue rib
bons of her diploma waved to every
oasslng breeze. The graduating exer
cises of the fifteenth annual com
mencement of the Georgia Normal and
Industrial School were made notable
by the excellence of the program rend
ered, and hy the largest and most en
thusiastic audience ever assembled in
the auditorium.
As Is customary, essays were read
bv young women who, by reason of
the excellent average of their year’s
work were chosen by the faculty to
represent their departments on this oc
casion The girls thus honored this
term were Misses Colquitt Newell, of
Milledgevllle: Russell Laaseter, of
Whlgham, Gn., nr.fi Julia Wlsenbalter,
of Valdosta, representing respectively
the collegiate, Industrial and normal
departments. Their essays deserve
mention for a depth of thought and
grace of expression which would have
done credit to older and more experi
enced writers.
Miss Berry Speaks.
A great feature of the day, and one
which had.been eagerly anticipated by
the girls, was the address of Miss
Martha Berry, upon whoso Industrial
school at Romo Is now focused the In
terest of the most prominent educa
tors In America. When Miss Berry,
the first speaker on the program, was
Introduced by President Parks, the ap
plause was so hearty that she waited
nearly five minutes before coming for
ward from the modest place she had
occupied on the rear of the plnlYtm.
So simple Is her manner, and so un
pretentious her personality that when
she began to spenk more than one
person In the audience wondered, what
had been the power which literally
swept the Southern Educational Con
ference off Its feet when Miss Berry
appeared before that body In Lexing
ton a few weeks ago.
An Attractive Speaker.
It was soon evident, however, that
the strong human Interest of her story,
and the csmera-llke vividness with
which she told It would rivet the at
tention of the most Indifferent.
Miss Berry said she thought she
could be most helpful to the girls she
addressed by telling them just what
difficulties had beset, her own path and
how she had met them.
Then she gave the great story of her
work for the mountain lads of North
Georgia. She told how nlno years ago
her w;ork began with a. small Sunday
school held In a log cabin «m her place;
how she had .established four or five
schools In mountain districts and final
ly consolidated these Into what Is now
the Boys’ Industrial School of Roma
She stressed the value of Industrial
education and impressed upon the
graduating clasa the fart that no phase
of educational work Is growing so In
demand as the Industrial branches of
which the Georgia Normal and Indus
trial College makes a specialty.
When Miss Berry finished speaking
there were tears in all eyes, '’That
woman was just called of God," I.
heard one man with that queer tight
ening In his throat, say to another, who
unblushlngly wiped his eyes wilt his
pocket handkerchief.
Hon. D. C. Barrow Talks.
Following Miss Berry, Hon. D. C.
Barrow, acting chancellor of the Uni-
veralty qf Georgia, spoke. Bis re
marks were addressed solely to the
senior class, and were on the aubject
of character building and preparation
for the responsibilities which await the
girl graduate. Chancellor Park Is much
loved In the college here and his brief
talk was enthusiastically received.
Governor Terrell Delivers Diplomas.
In the delivery of the diplomas to
the graduating class. Governor Terrell
was In his happiest mood. His re
marks were exceedingly brief, aa were
those of Chancellor Barrow, but they,
pul the audience In the best of humor.
After the diplomas were delivered, the
governor shared honors with the grad
uating claa, holding quite a reception
before the audience dispersed from the
auditorium.
The following young ladles received
