COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES
MISS SARAH FINLEY,
Vlce.Prcaident of the Palmetto Club, Memphis, Tenn.
A Very Pleasing Program Was Ren
dered and Mtss Hardman, the Only
Graduate This Season, Received
Her Diploma.
Tuesday closed the 190M902 school
term at St. Joseph's Academy and
the loth annual commencement exer
cises were held Tuesday evening In
the opera house.
The exercises were witnessed by a
full house and the fact that they were
appreciated by the audience was
demonstrated by tho repeated ap
plause and an occasional encore. The
first on the program was the singing,
by a class of boys, accompanied by
the piano and violin. Tho rest of tho
program followed as printed In the
East Oregonian of Monday.
The selections of St. Joseph's or
chestra were worthy of special men
tion. The orchestra is composed of
three young ladies with mandolins,
five boys and six young ladles with
violins, and their music shows train
ing and skill on the part of those
teaching this art at the academy. In
fact, all the program was rendered
with skill and deserves special men
tion, but it is impossible to give each
item space.
Perhaps nothing during tho ,.ter
tainment struck the audience as being
more beautiful than tho "Boquet of
Pendleton's Flowers." This was a
class of little girls, arranged in a
pyramid, with a row: of boys sitting
on the floor , and each had a lovely
bunch of flowers in their hands. The
wreath drill also called forth heart
applause, as did the pantomime.

In congress, maUes possible the ex
penditure of 5100,000 for tho stnto's
representation at tho fair. Captain
Charles F. Garner, president of tho
Board of Trade of Jacksonville, says:
"Florida, on ncconnt of its wonderful
resources, can and should make an
exhibit that will excel any state In
the Union. With an appropriation of
$50,005 we can make a display that
will attract more attention and oxcito
more admiration than could bo made
by any other state for ?l,00u,000.
FlorliTii hns too mnnv lintnrnl rosonr-

"The St. Louis fai. will excel In
every particular the Chicago fair, and
it is important that this state should
make a creditable display. It will
benefit the state more than any ono
can realize. It will add to our pop
ulation and attract capital to all parts
of Florida. It would bo humiliating
for the state to make n showing that
would not rank with tho finest at the
fair, and with the Indian wnr claims
added to our finances, there is no
reasonable excuse for any lack of en
terprise on our part. I believe tho
menfbers of the legislature will glad
ly make the appropriation."

ment for the onlookers than anything
else during the evening. This was
rendered in silence by a class of
young ladies who were dressed to rep
resent grown up women, telling their
little secrets to each other and they
went through all the actions imagin
able in a party of this kind.
One Graduate.
Only one graduate from St. Joseph's
Academy at this term. This was Miss
Helen M. Hardman. Miss Hardman
delivered her essay and valedictory
with grace and ease which showed
a well trained mind and reflects much
credit on her teachers as well as her
self. The subject of her essay was
the "Poetry of the Soul," and at the
wind-up she addressed her teachers
and class with expressions of love
and sorrow at parting with them to do
battle with the world, perhaps not to
meet them all again.
Following Miss Hardman's essay
valedictory, Archbishop Alexander
Christie, accompanied by Father Van
Der Velden, stepped on the stage and
conferred the graduating honors on
the graduate. After reading the di
ploma and presenting it to Miss Hard-
man he admonished her in a few
words to keep In mind as she went
through life the teachings of the sis
ters and to follow in the path that
she had been taught by them. He
then turned and addressed the audi
ence in a few words, telling them
that he hoped they would lend their
aid 'in filling St. Joseph's Academy
next year with students and that the
exercises of the evening was ample
demonstration of the efficiency of the
institution and ability of thoso in
charge.
Miss Hardman's Reception.
Thursday afternoon a farewell re
caption will be given Miss Hardman
at the academy.

learned of the marvelous merit of Dr.

cured." For despcrato throat and
