All but three of the' graduates have the
qualifications to enter the National
School for tha Deaf at Washington, D. C.
which requires an average of ten years
work, Including five years of college. -
The graduation address was delivered
by J. E. Delzell. state superintendent of
schools, who greeted his hearers through
the means of an Interpreter. The speaker
congratulated the graduates on the suc
cess they had met with in their studies.
Exercises by several classes, from the"
beglnners' grade to the seniors, were fea
tures which called fqrth applause from
the .audience.
Aside from the presentation of dlplo- (
mas, the address by Mr. Delzell and per
haps several of the essays and orations
by the graduates, the ' feature of the ,
evening's program was the demonstration
by little Charlie Schmidt, ( years old,'
who filled the first number on the pro
gram. He alone composes the kinder
garten class of the school, but was gradi ..
uated pro tempore Into the first grade'
and there made good. He went through
his letters with distinct gestures and
showed wtth the assistance of his teacher,
Miss Sauter, the first principles applied
In teaching the deaf child. . . i
Closing a class exercise by members of
the Third grade the enunciation of the
Lord's prayer by them was a most sin
gular and unique effort. Perhaps on. no
other occasion did. the audience so ehow
Its praise by their applause. The articu
lation was sufficiently clear to be plainly
understood and the eight girls slowly,
but surely went through it from the be
ginning to the end.. .
A class 'In gymnastics and another In
manual training allowed those who were
unfamiliar with the curriculum of the
school to wonder how It was possible to
obtain the perfection that was shown.
It was made clear that the Instruction
given the class included the development
of a retentive memory In the student
and a wonderful clearness of mind.
Violin solos by Mrs. E. R. Zabriskle,
member of the faculty, added consider
able worth to the program..
Essays by the student graduates took
alternate turns with the other numbers
to complete the evening's1 exercises.
These were all recited by the students
tn the two-hand language. A reader .
stood on the platform and kept in con-
Junction with the student reciting the
essay in words. The rate of speech
averaged from 100 to 150 words a minute
with at no time a hesitation on part of
either the essayist or the reader. -.-,
In all the exercises of ,the evening, npt
once was there a sign of fear, or -reticence
among those who took .' part
whether they were child or adultl Their
perceptibilities were enlivened to the :
occasion and each went through his or
her part with wonderful dexterity ar-d
skill. Each number, . whether by class or
Individual, received the appreciative ap
plause which it was entitled to.
The valedictory was by Scott Cuscaden
and the class poem recited by J. V.
Sowell.
