Saturday evening Dr. Lindley of the State University delivered the Commencement address to the largest graduating class Cot- tonwood has ever had—T7 boys and 5 girls. Dr. Lindley’s subject, “The Pioneers” was one of the most scholarly and _ interesting lectures ever heard in the town. All of the numbers on the long program were very interesting and exceptionally well rendered. Aft- er the program Supt. Skinner pre- sented diplomas to the graduates, whose names were printed in our last issue. Supt. Skinner, who has accept- ed the superintendency of the Nezperce schools for next term, will leave with his family by auto next week to spend the summer on the coast. Nezperce is fortu- nate in securing the services of so able a man as Prof. Skinner, who is one of the most competent and successful instructors in the state. Prof. Lustie, the high school principal, has been chosen as Supt. of the Cottonwood public schools. He and his wife will spend the summer in Seattle.

Miss Sloneker, who will have charge of the domestic science in the Chewelah, Wash., school next term, will spend her vacation at Payette, this state. The term just closed was by far the most successful ever taught here. Among the accomplish- ments of the year are: Building of large gymnasium. Many valuable books added to the library. Pp Valuable additions to domestic science department. Organization of thriving Junior Red Cross. Purchase by school children of forty-eight $50 Liberty bonds, 1762 Thrift stamps and 159 War} stamps.
