The commencement exorcises, which marked the closing cf the Spring term of the Camilla High School, were held in the Audito¬ rium on last Monday and Tues¬ day evenings, and. notwithstand ing the fact that a small admission fee of 10 cents was charged to meet the current expenses, the Auditorium was filled to its utmost capacity and on Monday evening standing room was at a premium. Each pupil did well and reflect¬ ed credit, not only upon them¬ selves, but the teachers who had their training in hand. The program for Monday even¬ ing was as follows: Piano Duo—“Husarenritt”— Spindier, by Misses Clara Free¬ man and Lucile Culpepper. Piano Solo (in unison) “Merry ■go-round”—Misses Nina Hil¬ liard and Mary Julia Clark, Chorus—“Brownies’ Lullaby,” by twenty little girls. Piano Quartette --“Awakening of the Birds”—Lauge,—Rosa Cox, Margaret Smith, Camilla Spence and Daisy Rachals. Piano Solo—“New York Bells” —Salter,—Miss Lucile Culpep¬ per. Chorus— “Sneezing Song,” by twenty little girls. Piano Duet—“Polka” Streab hog,— Leila and Roy Walker Piano Quartette—“Flight of the Swallow”—Lauge,—Misses Annie J. Cochran, Mary Spence, Nina Hilliard and Max-y Julia Clark. Recitation—‘ ‘Gobblins”—Miss Marie Turner. Piano Solo—“Waltz”—Streab* bog—Miss EdnaWadkins. Piano Duet—“Wind and Tide” —Hewitt,—Misses Annie Grace and Henrietta Brim berry. Piano Quartette—“Parade Re¬ view ” — Eugel mann, — Misses Ruth and Lallio Wilson, Geminie Lou Cox and Mrs. Twitty. This part of the evening’s en¬ tertainment was under the direct supervision of Mrs. Clara Twitty, the efficient and pains taking music teacher, and despite the fact that many of these little girls were first year pupils, they showed earnestness of purpose and good training. The evening’s entertainment was closed by the rendering ol Longfellow ’ s ‘ ‘Hiawatha, ’ drama in five acts. In this play a majority of the school partic¬ ipated and their work was indeed good and showed the splendid training of the efficient corpse of teachers who had them in hand The latter part of the play was marred by a shower of rain that came up and disturbed the audi dence, many of whom made a rush to get home as quickly as possible, but this did not throw the actors off and they continued in good order till the play was finished. Quite a number of beautiful tableaus were shown by the use of calsene lights thrown upon the groups of children, attired in quaint Indian fashion. Graduating Exercises. The graduating exercises of the class of 1904 of the Camilla High School Tuesday night con¬ sisted of six parts, one part be¬ ing taken by each member, and were as follows: Salutatory—Mr. Philip E. Bai¬ ley. Class History—Miss Ruth Wil¬ son. Class Trophecy—Miss Clara Freeman. Essay—Genius—M i s s Mittie Lee Palmer. Class Poem—Mr. Clarence Brimberry. Valedictory—Mr. Frank Harts field. The mere mention of these names of the graduates is suffic¬ ient assurance to those who were absent that the respective parts were excellently executed and well received. Various members of the school of music, under Mrs. Clara Twit¬ ty, interspersed delightful’ ren¬ ditions of instrumental and vocal music during the evening. The address of Hon. Walter A. Park, who is so well remember¬ ed as our popular teacher of nine years ago, was nothing less than those who are acquainted with him might have known to expect. With eloquence and reason he showed the young men and ladies just entering upon life, the true success of life is in the faithful discharge of duty. The people of Camilla enjoyed the visit from “Professor” Park, and he was shown much social attention. Prof. Branham with a few well chosen and sincere words delivered the diplomas. He stated that the work done by the graduates was sufficient to entitle the voung men to enter the Freshman Class at any of our colleges, the yc-ung ladies the Sophom 're Class. The entire corps of teachers could have receixed no higher mark of praise for their faithful¬ ness and eminentsuccess in their work than the announcement by the chairman of the Board of Trustees, Mr. Jno. C. Turner, of their unanimous re-election. There was a universal expres¬ sion of pleasure on the part of the people. Many congratula¬ tions have been extended, and it is earnestly hoped that Profes¬ sors Branham and Wiggins will again conduct our school, assis¬ ted by the same able lady-teach ere. DeWitt’s M Salve For Piles, Burns, Sores. Closing Exercises of Camilla’s Negro School. On las: Friday night in Ben¬ nett’s Hall were held the closing exercises of the splendid colored school which is being so well conducted in Camilla by J. I. Williams, who has risen from one of Mitchell county’s cotton chop¬ pers and fodder pullers to quite a distinguished educator among the people of his race in this county, Williams has worked up a nice school for his people here; this could readily be seen by the work of the boys and girls who took part in the exercises. In this work he has won the respect not only of his own people but that of the white citizens as well. By special invitation from Williams and other prominent colored citizens, Mr. R. L. Wig¬ gins, assistant principal of the Camilla High School, made a splendid talk to the school and in it gave them some advice which if heeded will do them no lifLio good. After ihe talk by Prof. Wiggins the recitations, dialogues andmusical selections which made up the program for the evening were carried out and thoroughly enjoyed by those present. A large number of our white c'tizens went out and occupied seats in the front of the hall which were specially reserved for them.
