There will be a dry county meeting this evening In the M. E. church South. Addresses will be delivered by prominent epesker. All are cordially invited to attend the meeting. High school commencement exer cises at the opera house last evening, were extremely Interesting, though not so largely attended. The program as announced was changed somewhat to conform with existing conditions. When the curtain went up the audi ence was greeted by a very pretty stage setting, which surrounded five of the six to . be graduated with the class of '08. Miss Alberta Hopper was 111 and could not attend. Her paper was read by Miss Marjory McCall, but her piano solo was dropped. With a very pretty parasol drill by pupils of Mrs. Neill's room, the eve ning's program opened. The little tots were iouu.jr hmuuvu, emm Kesaler .recited an oration on "Oppor tunities," which for logical reasoning and sound principles would be hard to equal. Miss Mae Noyes read a pa' per1 on "Parks In La Grande" which teemed with practical suggestions and was well rendered. ' JFred Toung, who sustained serious Injuries last Sunday, stood manfully on one foot while he presenteoVstrong arguments In a debate with Herman Stein on the question. "Resolved, That the present ' Commercial club move ment Is the best way to advertise the city." His opponents gave an equally strong response. The arguments were both Instructive and Interesting. Misses Annie Tullls and May Kelll, not of the graduating class, rendered a very pretty piano duet. Class History Road. The class history written by Miss Alberta Hopper, and read In her ab sence by Miss McCall, was a humor ous chronology of the class' history since It became a class In the little brlrk school house. The retrospective and prospective history was handled In a very able manner by the author and clearly read by fhe reader. Joseph Williamson responded for tho Junior class In a very clever man ner. Wishing the outgoing members nil the good fortune which was possi ble and remarking that his class would next year graduate with the record-breaVlng numbers, he closed a well-worded response. Will Neill, president of the graduates, handled his subject, "Seeing the Elephant," In a very able manner. In which he com bined some helpful suggestions to the classes behind him, and Incidentally touched national Issues. Blanch Kessler again entertained the audience, this time with a diffi cult rendition on the piano. Miss Kessler plans a musical course next year, and her abinty exhibited last evening Is proof positive that she will make a success of her chosen life work. Hon. H. M. Cske was called to the rostrum for a few brief remarks, and his admonitions to the graduates were clear-cut and Interesting. A pretty pantomime and tableaux preceded the presentation of diplo mas by President of the Board F. 8. Ivanhoe. In the pantomime were 14 girls of the seventh grade, who did their parts to perfection, while Miss Mabel Williams sang "The Star Span gled Rannor." In the pantomime were .Teanette Smith, Vern Wlssler. lnei Knowles, Mary Pennington. Frank Crawford, Edna Monsnn, Ethel Wright, Nora Arbucklo, lrma Deal. Irma Mar tin, Helen Currey. Alice Hill. Naomi Klrtley and Olive Massee. Miss Mnrjorle Sllverthisrn figured In the beautiful tableaux. The cur tain went down on the Interesting ex ercises with n hearty class yell from the seniors.
