From Saturday's Daily
Last evening the class of 1925 of
Plattsmouth High school were given
the coveted parchments that certified
that after well and faithful work in
their studies that they were grad
uated from the schools with all the
honors that their earnest and faith
ful work had entitled them to re
ceive.
The class this year is the largest
that has ever been gTauated from
the school, 52 numbering the class
roll of those who were given their
diplomas. It was a class that the
school can well feel proud of and
was fittingly representative of the
city in the personnel of the boys and
girls that comprised its membership.
Twenty-one boys and thirty-one
girls comprised the roll and show
ing the growing number of young
men that complete their school work
instead of as in the years past, leav
ing school after the first or second
year in school.
Aa is the usual experience, the
auditorium of the school building
was wholly inadequate to hold the
large audience that , was desirous of
training admission and many were
' n-n a tv! q H o hv tho crhnnl a II t linri t ipS

the fto KPfi that the relatives of the erad-
uates were given seats
The processional was played by
Mis3 Estelle Baird, one of the fac
ulty of the school and to which the
young men and women, gowned in
the gray robes and with their mor
tor board caps, entered the audito
rium and marched to the seats on
the platform which had been very'
prettily arranged for the occasion
with the baskets of the bright hued
flowers.
The invocation was offered by the
Rev. Walter R. Robb, pastor of the
First Christian church, which for
mally opened the exercises of the
evening.
One of the gmea memhers of the
class, Damian Flynn, was heard in a
vocal number. "Macushla," in which
the sweet voice of the singer was
heard at Its best. The accompani
ment for the number was played by
Miss Helen Wescott.
The salutatory of the clasa was
given by one of the honor students.
Miss Helen Wurl, who spoke of the
appreciation of the class of 1925 for
the opportunities that had been of
fered them, of the inspiration of the
ideas that had been given them by
their teachers in their high school
work. They had entered the school
with darkened eyes but in the years
of their high school labors they had
experienced a broadening vision that
would fit them to solve many of the
problems that could come to them.
Their training had given confidence
to them for their duties and respon
sibilities. The speaker wished for
the class that those who were re
sponsible for their education to be
pleaded with their work.
Miss Edith Quinton, who had the
highest grade of, the class and, like
Miss Wurl, had completed the four
year course in three years, was the
valedictorian of the class. Her ad
dress was one carefully given and
filled with many very important
facts as to the class and its work in
the high school period. Fact by fact
and idea by idea the education had
been secured and by intelligent
knowledge well given they had been
allowed to realize the hopes they had
held of being graduated with honor
and credit to themselves and the
school. The need of thoughtful,
earnest study was stressed by the
valedictorian in her remarks; the
faculties in grasping the knowledge
of life as presented in the school,
giving them a clearer idea of the
value of the education that they had
secured. The speaker thanked the
faculty, the members of the, board of
education and the parents for their
aid in making the school career a
success.
Theodore Hadraba, one of the high
ranking members of the class, was
heard on the program of the even
ing in a very finished and well given
piano selection. "Staccato Op. 272"
by Bohm, that certainly reflected
the greatest credit on the young
man and showed his marked musical
ability.
The address of the evening was
made by Millard C. Leffler, superin
tendent of schools of Lincoln, and
was in every way most Inspiring to
the audience and the members of
the class of 1925. "The Challenge
of the Day" was the keynote' of the
address and called for the young
people to give and bring to the tasks
that they might be doing a thought-
rul conclusion, to secure a self con
trol that would give them a better
ifter every meal "

'ON THE CORNER'
the great temptations of the present
day was to be ordinary rather than
to try for the best that lay within
the man or woman. The members
cf the class could attain any end
they wished if they set their will
that way and made the sacrifices
that were necessary. The price of
a lite or success was a lite or worth
while labor and accomplishment.
Mr. Leffler gave the story of "The
Man Without a Country" as an illus
tration of, the need of the proper
feeling of love and respect for their
nation and its laws. lie also urged
the young men and women to give
the Just appreciation to their fath
ers and mothers who had aided them
and lauded the home and its sacred
relations as one of the real worth
while things in life. In conclusion
the speaker pointed to the fact that
character is the diamond that
scratches every otiier stone.
The diplomas, very beautifully
bound in the blue limp leather and
bearing the class colors of blue and
white, were presented by President
Searl S. Davi3 of the board of edu
cation. The new diplomas are real
works of art and can be kept for
practically a lifetime by the stu

From Saturday's DaJly
Mahlan Richardson. the
known fisherman residing in
vicinity of the Missouri river just
north of Pacific Junction, made a
real catch of fish on Wednesday that
establishes the seasons record for
size and weight of the fish secured.
Two white catfish were secured by
Mr. Richardson. One of the hauls
weighted sixty-five pounds and the
other forty-five pounds. " He fished
with a throw line to which was at
tached an empty five gallon jug as
a bobber and had the best success
that has come to any of the fisher
men in this locality in the present
season. The two large fish are ex
pected to be used for exhibition purposes.
Result of Jleet is that Auburn Wins
First; Peru, Second, and the
Local School Third.
From BatunJay's Dally
The tri-city track meet held yes
terday at Auburn between the Platts
mouth, Auburn and Peru Prep
schools resulted in a first place win
for Auburn with 70 points, Peru sec
ond w-ith 36 and Plattsmouth third
with 23.
The Plattsmouth members of the
team, however, made a very nice
showing and LaVern Glaze, probably
the most outstanding of the local
trackmen in speed, was able to land
first in the low hurdles, second in
the high hurdles, second in the 220
yard dash and third in the 100 yard
dash.
Joe Buttery secured a second in
the pole vault and third in the 440
yard dash.
Joe Krejci secured a second in the
shot put while Herbert Johnson was
third in the discus throw and Jave
lin throw.
Johnson while hurling the Javelin
broke the weapon and which pre
vented him from securing a probable
first in the contest.
There were a number of the high
school boys accompanying the team
;ind witnessing the days sport and
enjoyed very much the exhibition of
this line of athletics.
Coach Rothert accompanied the
party and looked after their welfare
during their visit and the whole
party had a fast trip in reaching
home to be able to attend the com
mencement exercises, a number of
the athletes being members of the
senior class.
