' The graduating exerclneaof the high acboot took place at Sbively'a opera houae laat Friday evening, when 27 of Oregon . Clty'a clerereat young people received the coveted diploma, striven for with such patience and iiuxeaa. The opera house waa prettily decorated with flowera and evergreen, the claaa colora and motto, "With the Ropea of the I'eM wa Ring the Bella of the Future," while overall floated the protecting and In spiring fold of old glory. The brightest aettinga of the stage, however, were the happy lads and laaaeB, who did honor, not only to themaelyea but to the faith ful teachers and school officers, under whose tuition and supervision they were prepared for the day and its meed of succeas. ... The program for the evening opened with a feeling and eloquent prayer by Rev. A. J. Montgomery, in behalf of the young people now arrived at this im portant turning point In their lives. Miaa Marjorie Caufleld then delivered the salutatory from the subject, "Activ ity is the Measure of Usefulness," citing Ediaon and other great men of the pres- ent day as examples of activity and use fulness. Iter addreaa showed 'careful and thoughtful study and received full and deserved recognition. Miaa Florence Morey aanz "Mignon" to (he very manifest delight and appre ciation of the audience. "This Country of Oura," was the subject of an oration by Edgar Meresse, In wbich he displayed not only a thorough knowledge of its early history but also a patriotic love (or ita future success Minnie Caroline Meyer made an far nest plea for larger education in her essay on the "Principles of Liberty." Her paper showed wide research and a knowledge of her subject that would have done credit to a much older person. "The Natural Wonders of Oregon," loe' none of their grandeur or beauty under the oratorical touch of Guido Rocoe Charles Clark. The class history waa given by Esther Blanch Holden very minutely and clearly, beginning ten years ago and coming down through the several stages to commencement evening. The vocal duet, "I Know a Bank," by Misaes Draper and Knerten won instant favor and was cordially spplauded by the sudience. The oration on "The American Flag" by Charles Addison Babcock, won for that young gentlemen the hearty ap plause of his hearers. "Thought Makes Man a Progressive Being" was the subject of an essay of more than usual merit by Orpba Adelia Cos per. "Progress of Invention," was the topic of an oration by George Edward SwalTord, in which he said, among other things, that the two great civilizers were bt. Peter and saltpeter, the Gospel and gunpowder. Miss Kate Warde so delighted the audience with her solo, "For the Sal.a of the Past," that she was compelled to respond wih another selection. David Thompson Meldrum was billed for I he class prophecy, and he met his engagement very successfully to the delight of his classmates and the ap plause of the audience. Upon Mabel Ilanegan devolved the duty of delivering the valedictory and saving good bye 10 teachers and class mates, and right royally did she dis charge her obligation in her essay "What a Girl Can do for Her Country." She contrasted the educational institutions of today with those of 50 years ago and re ferred lo the bravery of Joan of Arc, who saved the French nation when but 17 years of age; of Mary Lyon, the founder of Mt. Uolyoke seminary, of Florence Nightingale, Martha Washington, Kate Fields and others. In closing she said : "To the school board, thanking you kindly for your efficient efforts in our behalf, we sincerely hope that our suc cess in lite may repay you many times for your kindness, and not only the present board, but those of the paBt, whose efforts have been just as untiring. To all we say adieu 1 To our teachers, whose room we are now quitting, whose efTorta we fully ap preciate, and who we hope may one day be proud to mention us one by one and say, "That brilliant young lawyer, this skillful physician, that noted young ladv, or principal of this college was a member of my class of '97." Farewell to you our schoolmates. To you we would say, do your best, your very best and success will crown your efforts. Be true to yourselves, your friends, your instructors, your parentB, your country and most of all to your God. No one has ever made a mistake by being honest, upright and true hearted. Adieu, and may you win many crowns of wisdom and laurels of know ledge. Let us not forget our school days. Be noble, honest men and women so that J we may be an honor to our Instructors and Iriends of our school days. We j have apent many pleasant days at school, though at times we thought our lot a hard one, yet tonight as we glance over the past, it seems our path has always been on of roses not thorns and thus remembering the brighter side, il makes oi all the more aad at this time. It may be that we will never again be assembled together aa we have assembled this evening, but the will of our Father be done. . If it must be so, let d hope to meet again in that better world, where sorrow and parting are nnknown. Farewell." Miss Mabel Kagland won new laurel In ber solo "Coming" and responded to an encore with another well rendered selection. Hon. George C. Brownell delivered the address to the class and presented the diplomas on behalf of the school board. From the manner la which the address was received it was evident that Mr. Brownell touched the popular chord. He referred in glowing terms to the fact that the greatness of this country of ours today was lbs result of planting the little school house in the country and in the city all over the land and also the love and reverence for the American flag. His remaiks to the class were full of encouragement but very practical. He unted upon (hem the necessity of having an aim in life and of living up to their engagements. Only those mentioned above took part in the ex rcises Friday evening. The other members of the class and the subjects of their orations and essays are as follows: Frederick Cochrane Char man, "Printing"; Elinor Williams, "Marcus Whitman" ; Lulu May Uankins, "Cheerfulness"; Belle Smith, "Hope"; Carl Gilbert Church. "Aim in Life"; Abel Meresse, "Oregon"; Annie Laura Duogey, "The Value of Forests" ; Fred John Meindl, "The Public School the Palladium of Liberty"; Mary Nora Cur ran; "For Grain Will Grow From What You Sow" ; Ethel May Cheney, "Joan of Arc": Walter Andrew Kruse, "Char lemagne and His Work"; Maude Myrtle Winslow, "Women in Politics"; Marie Marguerite Blubm. "The ' Irreparable Past" Emory Jamea Noble, "Self-Reliance";- Charles - Clinton .Criewell, "Abraham Lincoln"; Chester Roake, "The Steam Emrine"; Waldo Johnson Adams, "Formative Influence of Habit". There were seated on the stage, in ad dition to the graduating class, two mem bers of the board of directors, Dr. J. W. Norris, chairman, and Mr. Charles H, Caufield, Kev. A. J. Montgomery and I Hon. George C. Brownell, The other member of the board, Dr. W. E. Carll, was out of the citv. The einging of the German Evangelical people in their meeting below greatly disturbed the audience in the back part of the house. Another great source of annoyance was the fact that not one person in ten who bad purchased re served seats ever got to occupy them. If the managers of the opera house ex pect the people to patronize it they will have to see to it that people get what they pay for. For Bicycle Path.

Mr. James Jones, of the dm? firm of Jones & Son, Cowden, 111., in speaking of Dr. King's New Discovery, says that last winter his wife was attacked with La Grippe, and her case grew so serious that physicians at Cowden and Pana could do nothing for her. It seemed to develop into hasty consumption.
