14 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1898 THE MARTYRED PRESIDENT’S MEMORY Thousands of School Children, With Song, Verse and Essay, Join Doing Honor to Abraham Lincoln. ——— | THE DAY WAS CELEBRATED IN ALL THE CITY SCHOOLS. exercises to com- memorate the birth of Abraham Lin- coln, observed in the public schools throughout the city vesterday after- noon, were the mos aborate and pa- triotic that have ever been held for this purpose in the city. The programme for each school was similar In character and adhered strict- | 1y to a prescribed list of exercises dic- | tated by the Lincoln Monument League, and dealt principally in patriotic selec- | tions and addresses dedicated to the| memory of the great statesman. Although a prescribed programme had heen compiled for observance in each school the memorial decorations | were placed entirely in the hands of the individual principals of the different | schools, and were accordingly carried | .out in strict pursuance of their orders and under their immediate supervision. No one school had the same flower | The anniversary tributes to offer, and outside a strict | conformity to the rules and exercises governing the original programme, no two schools were alike in the manner of their testimonials of respect to the be- loved President. | Nearly every house of education in | the city, however, from the leading high schools down to the lowest and most insignificant primary classes had hung a portrait of Lincoln in the main exhibition room. The public demonstration on Lincoln day was the greatest and most praise- worthy ever recorded in the annals of the city, and its success, from an artis- tic standpoint, has eclipsed every ef- fort of the past in this direction. The principals in control of the dif-| ferent schools seemed to have been ac- tuated by an unusual enthusiasm and devotion to the beloved martyr’'s name, as their indefatigable industry in vy- ing with each other to produce the best exhibitions of respect and honor yes- | terday demonstrated. The programme which the members | of the Lincoln Monument League | compiled and dedicated for universal | observance among the schools, and the | one considered most appropriate for the | occasion, was as follows: Patriotic song and salute to the flag; address, declamation, ‘‘Lincoln;” Lincoin | song: quotations from the savings of Ab- | raham Lincoln, by pupils arising in thelr | places and repeating, one pupil at a ADVERTISEMENTS. ‘ Blood Humors ‘Whether itching, burning, bleeding, scaly, crusted, pimply, or blotchy, whether simple, scrofulous, or héreditary, from infancy toage, speedily cured by warm baths with CUTI€URA.

The six highest grades Grammar School combined in the cele- bration of Lincoln’s birthday, and the boys to the number of 500 were assem- bled in the school hall, the programme issued by the Lincoln Monument League being closely adhered to. Quite a num- ber of parents were in attendance to testify by their presence their venera- tion far the martyred President from which the school takes its name. The exercises were-as follows: by a pupll; song, America’ sung Patriotic song, “The Red, White and Blue,” and salute to the flag, by pupils; | address by Professor Knowliton, who said | that Lincoln’s life and character are lib- erty most precious legacy, and were a to the youth of America, for he was the best model of what the true American youth | should aim to become; declamation, *‘Lin- coln,” William L. Green; Lincoln song, alr, '“Hold the Fort,” by pupils, The quotations from Lincoln were spoken in clear and manly voices by twenty Scol- ars, who gave splendid emphasis to the words which he uttered.

Lakin, Url McKee and John Distken addressed the boys and were listened to with profound attention and frequent applause. The exercises by the pupils of the Girls’ High School were carried out in a manner calling forth the enthusiasm of the audience. Especial mention should be made of the mandolin club, the vocal solos by Miss Elsie Priber, | Miss Ina Collins and Miss Hermine Lask. The singing by the school showed careful training and the pro- gramme generally was fully up to the school’s splendid reputation for excel- lence. ‘W. H. L. Barnes, who was down for an address falled to appear; though having braved the fight in the thickest of the battle on many field, he did not have the courage to face the fudience of beautiful young ladies compriging the Girls’ High School and Polytechnic School, who attended in a body. ‘The stage was elaborately festooned with callas, in the middle of which stood a pedestal capped by the bust of Lincoln.

In the Denman Grammar School, A. L. Mann principal, the scholars of the ninth grades, taught by Mrs. Baum- gardner and Miss Smith, assembled in | the former’s class room, and the exer- | cises were particularly fine, and fol- |lowed the Lincoln Monument League | programme. The address was delivered | by Hon. James Denman, after whom | the school was named. He told the young ladies that they were gathered together in a good cause, and exhort- ed them never to forget the name of Abraham Lincoln, which was so worthy of being revered. The unveiling of Lin- ‘coln’s picture was performed by Trezie Cleveland, who possesses the distinc- tion of being the ex-President's second cougin. An address was also delivered by Dr. C. D. Cleveland, who is also re- lated to the man who has been twice at the head of the nation. Miss Alice Duffy recited in excellent style, and an added feature was the piano solo by Miss Peéarl Ladd. The chorus singing by the girls was especially good, they having been trained by Principal Mann. In addition to the “Star Spangled Ban- ner,” they also sang the ‘‘Marseillaise,” and with such splendid effect that they were requested to repeat it by their auditors. Mr. Flint and Mr. Paisalt of Garfield Post, two veterans of the clvil war, spoke interestingly to the young ladies, and the two gentlemen were visibly af- fected during the exercises, as recol- lections of the past were brought up. Miss McFarland, acting principal, gave the word to begin the exercises at 1 o’clock sharp in the Clement Grammar School, and promptly at that time the pupils commenced to revere and honor the memory of Lincoln. The address was delivered by Ray Falk. Declamation, “The National Flag,” Miss Noon’s pupils. Declamation, “Lincoln,” Brown.

The speech at the unveiling of Lin- coln’s picture was delivered by Clara Sawyer. The special feature of the programme was the singing of the quartet, “Tent- ing To-Night,” by the Clement Quar- tet, composed of James Horne, Alfred Black, Rene Combes and Albert Haynes. They-were obliged to respond to two encores, so well did they ren- der the selection. Aubrey Yates created considerable merriment and interest by his recital of Lincoln’s stories, and his listeners were loth to let him go. The visiting veterans who addressed the p‘\#fls were J. M. Long, A. J. Vin- ing, W. Gordon and John Rush, of ‘George H. Thomas Post. The crowning feature of the pro~ Charles gramme In the exercises of the eighth | grade was the declamation at the un- velling of Lincoln's monument by | Monte Dernham, 13 years old. Notwithstanding the fact of the exer- cises at Hamfilton school being con- | fined to the junior and ninth grade, the | programme was fully up to that of the other schools many of the numbers deserving special mention. Ninth _grade programme—Song, “Flag | of the Free” and salute to the flag, by the class; address, W. A.

They were named on the programme as follows: Ivy Knowlton, declamation; Lottie Davidson, ‘‘Gettysburg Ad- dress;” Frank Arthur, poem, “Why Should the Spirit of Mortal be Proud?” Unveiling of the bust of Lincoln was performed by Joseph Pritchard. The exercises of the eighth grade in the Columbia Grammar School were of a high order of merit. The decora- tions were especially fine, and Amer- ican flags were in abundant evidence. The address by R. E. Whitefleld was of exceptional interest, as that gentle- man was a great friend of Lincoln and closely associated with him for a con- siderable portion of his life. His per- sonal reminiscences were therefore most entertaining and held the atten- tion of his listeners. All the members showed careful pre- paration by the pupils, who are to be congratulated on the complete success of their efforts. The programme was as follows: Ad(,]rosu‘ R. E.'

At the Henry Durant School the pu- pils had many surprises to offer their visitors in the way of patriotic exer- cises In honor of the Great Patriot. Among these was a short address de- livered by Colonel Lyman Bridges of the G. H. Thomas Post. The subject was a treatise on the subject of Lin- coln’s life, and proved to be of unusual interest, as it was given with a spirit of early recollection of Lincoln’s mili~ tary career. The Lincoln day celebration at the Everett Grammar School was worthy of praise, as considerable effort had been exercised by the pupils and teach- ers to make the occasion a success and an event long to be remembered by the children who are now matriculated in the school.
