TWENTY FIRST YEAR
The Final Exercises
Last Saturday evening in the opera
house occurred the commencement ex
ercises of the McCook high school with
most gratifying particulars Following
upon the heels of the successful and de
lightful class day exercises of the pro
ceeding evening tho total impression
was most satisfactory for both of these
exercises of first importance of com
mencement week met with tho highest
approval of the exacting patrons of the
public schools whose pride will be sat
isfied with nothing short of productions
of merit
The piano duet U Trovatore Jean
Paul by Mrs W B Mills and Mrs
Mabel Stranahan opened the program
of the evening with a splendid selection
excellently rendered
In the absence of Rev L M Grigsby
the invocation was offered bv Rev Frank
W Dean
The male quartette Messrs T E
McCarl S B McLean J R McCarl
and B 13 Gillespie gathered more
laurels in their artistic singing of Dudley
Bucks In Absence
Charles Lester Littels salutatory was
brief and to the point introducing the
speaker of the evening Ed Amherst Ott
who captivated his hearers
The feature of the evening was the
address to the class of 1902 by Ed Am
herst Ott dean of the school of English
and elocution Drake university Des
Moines Iowa It was a rare combina
tion of golden advice dashes of humor
and eloquent graphic descriptive touch
es Sour Grapes heredity was his
text and his plain pertinent truths and
arguments though not always pleasant
were wholesome and unanswerable and
worthy profoundest consideration It
was splendidly instructive and enter
taining
The piano solo Valse de lOpera
Faiis t Gounod Liszt by Miss Olive M
Howe was a superb popular selection
and it was given artistic masterful
treatment delighting all
The valedictory by John L Rice was
a characteristic product of much com
mon sense and force calculated to stim
ulate and encourage and lacking the not
unusual soaring tendencies
In presenting the diplomas Judge G
Y Norris made a brief speech of splen
did parts mingling congratulations with
wise advice with much feeling and elo
quence
Mrs P F McKenna had full range
for her magnificent vocal endowment in
her solo Fear Not Ye O Israel
Dudlev Buck
Rev GLWhite pronounced the bene
diction and brought to a conclusion the
man3 happy events of commencement
The decorations of the stage were quite
charming and tasteful

second to the exercises of commance
ment week and the sentiment is ex
panding and growing among the alumni
The banquet and its happy incidents
this year made glad the hearts of about
sixty members and guests at the high
school building Monday evening
With the facilities of comfort art and
taste at command necessary rooms in
the high school building were rendered
cosy and attractive for the reception and
banquet which is one of the dressiest
functions of the whole round year being
distinctively a symposium of youth and
beauty and cleverness

the biggest figure paid for a female was
