comfortably filled with friends of the
graduate?, and the occasion was a very
pleasant one. The program was inter
spersed with music furnished by pupils
of the school, moct of them not of the
graduating class, and it was very fine,
due largely to Prof, l.aiulerb' training.
Thu subjects taken by the graduate."

entious study of each.
After Dr. Doane, chairman of thu
hoard of directors, had congratulated
the class and delivered to e.ich tho well
earned diploma, 11 reception was held on

the happy young people. l'hey were
also the lecipients of many beautiful
flowers.
