SCHOOL COMMENCEMENTS
Invitations are out for the Sacred
Heart Academy commencement to be
held June 9th. Unfortunately, the in
vitations were printed at a time when
a down-town theatre was apparently
available, and since then it has been
found necessary to change the scene
to the high school auditorium. Holders
of announcements are reminded here
by of the change.
In a blaze of social glory the 1915
class of the high school was sent'Out
into the ocean of life Thursday even
ing at Honan" hall. True, the diplomas
were given out at the high
school auditorium, . but it was
at the spacious reception rooms
in Honan hall that the finale curtain
was rung down. The mothers of the
graduates were hostesses to friends
of the graduates at a formal recep
tion at Honan hall.
Class colors, yellow and blue, were
strictly adhered to in the elaborate
decorution scheme. A large arch pf
welcome sheltered the libation booth,
where friends of the graduates served
refreshing drinks. An orchestra
played for the edification of the
guests, and for the young people to
dance by. Practically ull the mothers
of the graduates were in the receiv
ing line and several hundred guests
were received during the course of
the reception hours.
Earlier-in the evening the auditor
ium of the high school was the gather
ing place of.- several hundred people
who witnessed the formality of be
stowing upon 34 graduates the sheep
skins signifying honorable passing of
the high school requirements. The
program there was short-but unique,
and intensely interesting. This pro-
f ram was carried out:
