COMMENCEMENT WEEK
Though the Senior Class of the
high school holds the centere of inter
est in Commencement Week, all de
partments have closing cxercises of
highly entertaining quality.
Thursday Night
The first use madc of the new audi
torium and the spiendid new baby
grand piano was for the recital of
the high school pupils “in music and
expression, under the direction of
their teachers, Misses Cheek and Bish
op. The number were skillfully rend
ered as follows:
Piano
Annie Laurie Warren
Alice Denmark
Vivian Woodham
J. T. Pittman
Virginia Hale, Violin and Piano
Alberta Williams
Hazel Williams, Violin and Piano
Expression
Rebecca Kirkland
Willie Mae Fletcher
Hazel Evans
Bobby Burns
Hazel Williams
Blanche Morris
Helen Holder
The promise of an enjoyable even
ing for those who attended the Senior
Class play as forecasted by the an-'
nouncements and the well known tal
ent of a number of the caste, was ab
undantly fulfilled in the rendition of !
the comedy ‘“When a Feller Needs,
A Friend”. It was quite out of the,
usual run of school plays, being-full
of action, with a daring of incidents
and language that savored more of |
the professional than of the amateur
play. Far from amatuerish, too, was |
the “Widdy Woman” and her “Good-!
For-Nothing Daughter Liz”, so well|
presented by Miss Mildred Manning
and Miss Corinne Ellis. Mr. Leon
Kassewitz too had a heavy part which
called for strenuous impersonation.
Other splendid conditions were giv
en by: Willis Miller, Will Ollliff,
John Hangen, Walter Graydon and
by Misses Ruth Bussell, Cafarina Gra
cia and Rebecca Kirkland.
Every player in the caste threw them
selves heartily into their parts and
their lines were so perfectly learned
that there was no hestitation in the
rapid action of the play. The mem- |
bers of the caste have worked faith
fully to attain this degree of profici
ency and for the past week Mrs. J .P.
Manning has been the attentive coach
at rehearshals. The audience re
sponded most heartly throughout and
at times was almost uproarious with
laughter, the auditorium being filled
to capacity. The orchestral trio that
includes Messrs. J. A. Evans, Sam
Jones, and Roy Brown added very
much to the enjoyment of the even
ing by their lively music. Mr. Jones
rendered a beautiful violin solo at one
time.
Between actsthere was staged also
an impressive flag presentation, with
the actors assembled on the stage and
Mrs. J. T. Hendricks and Superinted
ent Usher speaking in the presenting
and the accepting of the flag. The
gift is from the patriotie orders of the
D. A. R. and W. R. C. and is a large
and handsome banner of al wool
which makes the coloring especia]ly‘
brilliant. It stands on its own basel
and is topped with a gilt eagle andl
cords and tassels of gilt, a very orna
mental stage piece aside from its si\g-}!
nificance which none could fail to ap- |
preciate. The audience rose and sang!
a verse of America in closing this |
patriotic interlude. There were gen-l
erous comments of praise for thel
entertainment and also for the ap
pearance and comfort of the audi
torium which most of the audience
were seeing for the first time. The
play netted over $2OO for the classl
who will use it for the expense of thel
annual. l
Saturday Afternoon !
Recital
The recital for the tiltle folks who
are studying music and expression
was of great interest, especially to the
parents. Some it is true show more
talent than others but all did their
parts remarkably well and the value
of such training is well known. -Miss
Cheek and Miss Bishop are seen to
ta take pains with their small pupils
and their improvement is rapid.
tSaurday Night
Recital
The pupils of intermediate grades
were heard in recital on Saturday
night, giving the program that fol
lows:
Piano
Lois Dorminey
Jewell Smith
Sarah Frances Williams
Leureita Dyal
Joe Jones
Marcia Dikey
Bradford Dorminey
Januita Saunders

Commencement Sermon
Sunday
The beautiful auditorium of the
Central Methodist Church was crow
ded to the doors with the attentive
congregation Sunday morning, all
churches in the city giving way to the
baccalureate service. A secondary
interest to that of the service itself
was the initial use of the splendid
auditorium, which until a Ilate
hour on Saturday night was being
fitted with the pews that arrived late
in the week.
The ample capacity, the attractive
appearance and the comfort of the
room as regards lightening and ven
tilation were much appreciated on this
occasion and it was seen too that the
acoustics always an uncertain condi
tion were the very best. On the pul
pit were the pastors of other church
es who took part with Rev. S. C.
Olliff in the services, ‘
Superintendent G. E. Usher, direct
ed the exercises.
The front center of the
church was reserved for the'
large graduating class, the parents,
and the school board and faculty. The |
class were garbed in caps and gowns]
of gray and entered in a body.
A large choir led the congregation
al singing and the program was as
follows:
Processional, Miss Cheek at the Piano
Invocation—Rev. J. F. Singleton
Hymn—Holy, Holy, Holy
Vocal Duet, “Calvary”’—Mrs. R. L.
Littlefield and Miss Helen Chastain
Scripture Reading—Rev. Bruce Nay
