Fourteen Pupils Graduate at the Com
mencement Exercises Last Evening
The Alumni Banquet.
Nothing 60 successfully brings out
tho peoplo of Bed Cloud as something
connected with the public schools
This was noticenble last evening. Not
withstanding tho threatening rain, the
opera house was literally packed with
a throng eager to do homage to the
f urteen young muti and women who
graduated from our high school
Tho occasion was tlio eievenui an
nual eeintiioncomcnt. Tho graduating
class consisted of live boys and nine
giil-i who had reached the resting place
on life's road ordinarily culled com
mencement ;the commencement of their
real live?. Tho names of tho fourteen
Graduates aro Edward D. Piatt. 11. Earl
Pond, Lawrence L Pierce, Boy T.
Phelps, Sherwood L. Albright, Agnes
W. Brown, Ethel Hosmer, Grace Skjel
ver, Ida Pearl Kinscl, Jessie O. Hen
derson, Lorenn M. Nustein, Maule L.
Wells, Myra May Grifietb, Nellie Ger
trude Fort. Henceforth their footsteps
will not bo guided by a teacher nenr so
gentle and painstaking in his efforts,
but one which will bring thorn to a
sudden realization of a mistako after it
has been made. This teacher is actual
oxperio ce. Their parents, relatives
and friends were all presoiit to show
their interest in and appreciation of
their hard school work, and oiler them
their congratulations on their success
ful closing of their school lifu. It was
indeed a beautiful sight and one calcu
lated never to be f'Ji gotten by tho par
ticipants The stngo and iudeed al
most the entire opera house had tin-
derwojta change in appearance as by
the hand of some magician iu a faiiy
laud. The class colors, pink and
green, covered everything and the dec
orations of dowers were such as were
never before seen on an occasion of a
like character iu the city, but ihu
handsomest decoration of the entire
stage was tho hovy of young graduates
who occupied prominent and conspic
uous positions on tlio stage. Youth,
beauty, and manhood's strength, look
ing with eager eyes toward the future
and reaily to grapple with tho prob
lems of life by reason of a trained fac
ulty 111 ad t the crowning setting of the
stage one that is never to bo forgotten
by those who had gone there to witness
the occasion.
The program as published last week
was 1 endured from the instrumental
solo by Miss L noun M. Nustein at the
top to the benediction by Uev. 11 A.
ll.irnes at tin; bottom without an inci
dent to uuti the proceeding, and each
aiidovciy number was roi.dircd iu a
inaiinei that showed only too well how
carefully the training of these young
uiiudn had been attended to by the var
ious teachers who had had them in
charge since their school days began.
We would like to have taken each in
dmdual number on the program and
said something of it each was
worthy but time and space forbids,
and hence wo will simply have to refer
to them as a whole.
Without exception tho members of
the class enunciated distinctly, and
miido tlio most of their elocutionary
powers. Every word they uttered was
plainly heard in every portion of the
hull, and each received a genorous
amount, of applause. The music
throughout the program was excellont
and well rendeied.
George 1. Kidloy, superintendent of
the sclu.olfl presented the diplomas and
us each graduate received his or her
diploma a look of satisfaction settled
over their faces as they realized that
their schooldays were over, and still a
look of sorrow as they appeared to re
tili.u that the fourteen who had been
continually together for the past few
yeats would part with that chsig,
probably never to meet again in uis
world. Tho tlowers, lust but not least,
received by the diiTeront. members of
tho class wero tho most beautiful and
tho quantity, tho largest that was evor
scon on a like occasion in this city,
Flowers wero stacked in piles all ovor
tho stage, and they came from admir
ing f 1 lends, not only in Red Cloud, but
from other places. Many of thorn
were of a rare and exquisite nature
and had been purchased utgrconhouses
iu Denver, Omaha, and other cities.
After the graduation exercises were
over the graduating class were taken
in hand by tho alumni and escc-Tted to
tho Bon Ton restaurant whoro a sumps
tuous repast had been prepared for
their benefit. Tho menu prepured was
0110 woll calculated to cuuso the
thoughts to turn from tho exciting
thoughts of tho past few hours and
realize that the real lifo was before
them, and the way they foil to and did
juitieo to tho ediblesjwould lead one to
