A large group ot parents, relatives and friends of -graduates attend? ed chapel exercises presented In honor of the class of 182 mem bera yesterday morning at the Oregon Normal school.

Mr. Bonney quote the belief J that the personal example of a teacher Is the most important fac tor in character education of the child, and proceeded to present cogent arguments to disprove the belief. - - "I do believe that the teacher's examples act as stimuli to a child's atmosphere of moral, and character education." said he, "and occasionally a very efficient and decisive Instance Is encoun tered as in the case of Ernest la the Great Stone Face. But I am Inclined to compare such a suc cess to a home run in baseball. It is thrilling inspirational but not the basis on which most games are won. ' ' - MA child's experiences, from which he derives i satisfaction, or dissatisfaction, and from which his character develops, are more important. . . ' ) 'A child who Is backward, anti-social, non-cooperative and with a badly controlled temper, will have to undergo a new set of experiences to overcome these handicaps, of which he probably Is scarcely aware. Adults too are not notorious for knowing? their own defects. A teacher's example in such cases may be a helpful stimuli, but the mother holds pri ority over the teacher, as Is shown by many phychologlcal studies."

She was accompanied at the piano by Miss Alice Peterson, and Miss Grace Man lie Mitchell added a pleasing violin obbligato. Diplomas were presented by Dean-J, B. V. Butler.
