among students with greater education,
the natural simplicity, and grace of their
actions, won far more applause than
better skilled but less natural art would
have done.
Much credit for the success of the
"Japanese girl" is due to Mrs. W. P.
Campbell, director of the Operetta, and
her daughter, Miss Irene, who was the
efficient accompanist on the piano.
Many of the parents of the students
visited the school during the commence
ment exercises, coming from nearly all
the states of the west.
A number of very prominent people
of the state were guests at the exercises
last evening; among them were Con
gressman W. 0. Hawley, Father Datin,
Hon. C. EL Dye and wife, Mrs. Eva
Emory Dye, Hon. H. E. Cross and wife
of Oregon City, and Hon. P. H. D'Arcy
of this city.
