At the close of the above program Supt. 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:
