CITY PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
Thef Spring Term Closes With Interesting
Exercises.
The baccalaureate sermon of the
Gainesville public schools was preached
at Hunt’s opera house, last Sunday
morning, by Rev. F. D. Thomas of El-
herton. There were no services at any
of the city churches and a very large
crowd was present to bear the sermon,
which was a most excellent one in ev
ery respect.
The graduating exercises of the
schools, according to arrangement, oc-.
curred at Hunt’s opera house last, night,
the program of which was as follows:
Invocation; music; oration and sa
lutatory, •‘•Labor vs. Genius,’ y George
M. Telford; essay, “Woman’s Place in
this Century.” Miss Hallie Johnston ;
oration, “The Inheritance of the Amer
ican Boy,” Lamar Ham; music ; ora
tion, “The Progress of the Nineteenth
Century,” T. Carlton Hosch; oration,
“Young Men of Today,” Eugene S,
Towery; music; essay,- “Lessons
Learned from Other• Lives,” Miss /Tru-
die "Woolley; oration and valedictory,
“Might Does Not Make Right,” C. H.
Dozier, Jr.; delivery of diplomas by
Governor Allen D. Candler.
A Good Entertainment.
The concerc given at the courthouse
st Tuesday evening by the public
ehools, for the benefit of the Winnie
%v\s memorial fund, was largely pat-
onized and proved to be a very enjoy
able occasion. Those taking part in
ihe program acquitted themselves cred
ibly and reflected credit upon those
)y whom they were instructed. The
sntertainment netted the fund Over
10, and the Longstreet chapter,
laughters of the Confederacy, is
inch gratified at the result. They de-
ire to return their heartiest thanks to
jrrof. j, W. Marion, whose assistance
ras invaluable; to Mr. Jno. A. Smith,
chairman of the county commissioners,
for the use of the courthouse ; to Mr.
E-Redwine, Jr., for the use of an
r Ran, and to all who gave their sup-
to the entertainment by the pur-
lase tickets and their presence.
L ’he receipts from the entertainment
n 1 go toward swelling*a fiind, for the
section of a monument to the “Daugh-
erof the Confederacy,” the late Win-
le Davis.
