West
Oregon City School a mil
itating Exercise. ' -
The commencement exercises of the
West Oregon City school, held Saturday
evening were very entertaining, consist
ing principally of the presentation of
three diplomas to the members i( the
graduating class, and a comedy, "Sin
gle Life," presented by a number of
competent persons. The graduates
were Lee Caufield, Bessie McMillan and
Earl Smith. County Superintendent
Zineer called attention to the fact, in
presenting the diplomas, that it was an
unusual class there were a greater
number of boys than girls. Also, that
this class was composed of the young
est graduates in Clackamas county,
and they had successfully passed the
rigid examination imposed by the state
board for eighth grade pupils. It is a
notable fact that only a comparative
small number of students are able to
pans all of the 10 branches in the pre
scribed eighth grade couise at the first
trial.
The comedy, "Single Life," was the
most entertaining play ever pat on the
stage by local amateurs. The intensely
interested attention of the auditx:e was
held through the various acts, who fre
quently greeted the life-like character;
zation of the auditors with applause.
Vocal musical numbers were contrib
uted between acts by O. A. Miller and
Miss Imogen Harding. Those taking
part in the comedy, all adepts at love
making, and each one worthy of men
tion were: Misses Maggie Goodtellow.
Bessie Grant, Florence E. Pattv, Lizzie
Shipley, Mr. and Mrs. Richard iiittner,
Joe Goodfellow, Ofen Tomkin, Charles
