A very interesting program was carried out and each number brought forth great applause from the parents and f ls. The diplomas were presented to the class by Adolph Benson, professor of German in the Sheffleld Scientific school, Yale uni- versity. Professor Benson also de- livered the address to the class and took for his subject “The Value cf Grammar School Education.” He spoke of the change in the edu- gational methods of twenty years ago and now. At that time, when he first came to East Berlin, there was no graded system and the evolution of that system has greatly enlarged the value of the work. Everything now Is done in a systematic manner, which s a marked change for the better. He then dwelt on the importance of the fundamentals of the grammar sehool course and cited instances, which came under his notice, where men were flunked out of college, be- cause of faulty preparation of the grammar grades. In the opinion of the speaker, too much value cannot be placed on that preparatory work. 3enson deplored the use icates for entrance into high ~Bchool and college. The personal ele- ment, which enters into the teaching of the youth, often causes the teacher rant certificates, in doubful advocated strongly for admisston to high bhigher institutions of this wey, every pupil would enter on bhis own merits. In conclusion, Pro- fessor Benson congratulated the class on the completion of its work In the csheol an dexpressed the hope that all would continue school wark. Get Dead Man’s Pay.

The children had rehearsed their parts for several weeks under the direction of Principal O. L. Judd and his assistants and they rendered the program in most entertaining fashian. The exercises opened with invoca- tion by Rev, J. C. Ward, after which the school chorus sang “Nightingale And Rose.” Salvan Morino, class =alutatorian, gave a deglamation, “The American Flag;” Meyer Sneide- man recited ‘““The Battle at Sarg- oga,” after which Vivian Howard en- tertained with a recitation, “The Present Crisis.” Victor Berner won applause for his rendition of “Case: Revenge,” Dorothy Stevens following with a recitation, “The Legend of Fregenz.” Charles Phelps showed considerable ability as an elocutionist in the declaration, “Let Us Have | Peace.” The school charus showed to splendid advantage in the can- tata, “The Garden of Flowers,” all the children taking their parts in admir- able style. The class essay with valedictory, “William Shakespeare,” was well handled by Jeanette Smith. Congratulating the pupils on their successful completion of the course in the local schcols but at the same time admonishing them against over- estimating the amount of knowledge they have acquired, Rev. H. T. Walsh addressed the class in cannection with the duty of presenting them with their diplomas. He spoke as follows: “My Dear Young Friends: I w4 h to congratulate you on the active part you are taking today in the exercises that are marking your | graduation from the Plainville Gram- mar school. It will require only a very little exercise of you: memories to recall thé days, when . few short vears aga, you began in school to study and to learn; you then had but a very vague and confused idea of the | aims and purposes which your teachers had in mind in teaching you, and in endeavoring to build up in vour little minds storehouses for the possession an'd use of that precious treasure which the world is pleased | to call knowledge. “As the years went by though, you began ta have a keener percéption of what, by your studies, you .were striving to attain, and perhaps you! began to think of the day you would graduate, and began to long for that | day which at the present mament you are enjoying; perhaps in the | joyous and happy prospect of your | graduation, you believed that on that day after successfully completing school course you would be perfect types of that in- dividual of whom the kindly Gold- | smith wrote when he said: | ‘And still they gazed, and still the wonder grew, That one small head could carry all he knew.’ | “T hope, however, that you have no | | FRIDAY, JUNE |4 | | Thirty-one Members of Class Receive | | flatter vourselves that we | qudience gaze and wonder at the tre- ean Little Store For || Saturday We Wili Have a Big Sale on GENUINE SPRING LAMB 23, 1916.
