COMMENCEMENT,
The fourth annual commencement
of the Nemaha High school was held
at Hoover's opera houso last Friday
night. The exercises began with an
invocation by Ror. Van Fleot. Miss
Emma Crlra gave an Instrumental solo,
time was ilno. Then came the oration,
"Our Structurejjife," by tho one grad
uate this year, Miss Dora Morton. It
was well worded.and tho ideas brought
out were good. Misses Bosslo Vrost
and Bello Galbralth gave a duot in an
excollent mannor. Hev. C. II. Gilmore
delivered tho addresB which wasouoof
tho best over given foeio. The diploma
was then presented to the graduate by
tho president of the board, W. W.
Sandors. Modesty forbids us Baying
anything about tho speech, but truth
com pells us to say that Rev. Gilmore
has acted to' us since then just like a
man does when he is jealous of another,
and he probably didn't like it becauso
wo got tho most applause. MisB Maud
Minick then gave a vocal solo, which
was flnoly rendered.

gavo a Bhorttalk, in which some good
advice was given to tho school patrons
in regard to visiting tho school and
taking an lutorest in school matters.
Rov. C. II. Gilmoro plead guilty to
neglect, and by a rising vote almost
every one in tho audienco admitted
that thoy were also guilty, and prom .
tsed to do hotter in the future.
Tho school board, teachors and
grauuato desire to return thanks to
Miss Emma Crim for her valuable
assistance with the music, to Rev. C.
II. Gilmoro for his address, to Miss
Maud Minnick, and to all others who
assisted in the exercises.
