Lipps made a most impressive, though brief, talk to the student body in which he mentioned some of the improvements promised at Chemawa next year. He gave them good advice in the matter of putting in a summer of indus trious endeavor, in saving a goodly part of their earn ings, etc. At the close of his remarks he spoke feeling ly of his good wishes and hopes for all of them and wished them all the good things which come to those of honest purpose in approved endeavor. A good talk. After the baccalaureate program those of the senior class and a fewfiiends at home and from outside points gathered at the home of Supt. and Mrs. Lipps for a social hour and were served delicious refreshments. This proved a delightful occasion for all and the seniors will never forget the event. One of the most enter taining features of the evening was what may be termed a “fake graduation.” Everything was most informal, hence most enjoyable. The affair was non-forgetable and all departed feeling grateful to host and hostess for the pleasant evening afforded them. On Monday at 10:00 there was an inter-class field meet in which the rivalry was most intense. In an other column will be found a full account of the meet, and it only needs to be stated here that the seniors walked off with the honors—it was about all seniors! At 2 o’clock on Monday afternoon the boys and girls and many of the employees made themselves comfortable on the lawn and about the big porches of Cramton hall while they listened to the interesting campus program which has become a part of our an nual commencement exercises. Although the pro gram is always more or less impromptu the numbers are always well rendered and well received. The band played a number of selections that all enjoyed. There were no dull moments. Mr. Kunkel and his band boys were always ready and willing to keep the stage occupied. Following is the program as it was rendered: Selection................................................................
