Tj. .1. Oveiing Jr. was the oiator of

lie then devoted his attention to some
of the unexpected consequences. A
great, heiolc stiuggle taxing the ut
most lesouiees of tho nation, physical,
mental, sphitual, broadened the in
tellectual horizon of tho people, stimu
lated their activities, awakened their
dormant eueigles. Tlie otga'niK.itlou

into vast industrial aimies. which had

Tho South with the cut so of slavery

In the rooms adjoining tho hall.
Ice cream and cako vveio served at
midnight and theyouug people depait

At their passing it might be well to
review tholr accomplishments hi our

that vvc will only consider that in
which they have surpuBsud the
graduates of former years The High
School annual the first over attoinpted
