Pearson, rector ofySU John's Church, conducted the-service and was assisted by Rev. I^S.\ ILowrie and the combined chojrs, -of- St John's and Baptist churches. Mr. Pearson preached the annual bac- calaureate sermon. He jjspake to the graduates on \The Quest for Happiness,\ giving them a for- mula, which If foDowed, would be a great help to them to make arch- life a success. He stated that giv- ing, not receiving, leads .to happi ness and that there are too many •yes\ men and women in the world, 'wtilch, if not checked leads to a society of \molly-coddles.\ He admoniafta&a»ttiem to be \no\ men and womeni and be happy. • On Monday evening occurred the crowning event of the week, the graduating exercises. These were held in tbe High School Au ditorium which was beautifully decorated lor the occasion/ The stage had been transformed into a bower of beauty with Its hanging baskets filled with flowers and low picket fence entwined with red and pink peonies and ferns extending along the foot lights with a large basket of garden flowers on each end. High above this hung the class motto \Scien- tia potestas est\ in the class col- ors, old rose and gold. Thevftypflls of the auditorium were lined/with huge baskets of garden' .flowers. Colored foot lights along title stage added to the Beauty of the scene that greeted tbe friends and relay tives of the graduates who filled the auditorium to capacjtyi \As 'the High School Orchestra on the stage played the march from'Men drlssohn's \Atbalia\ girls from the junior class advanced down both j.sk's carrying ropes In the class colors. They formed a line from the chairs down the steps on either side of the stage as the graduating class, which they escorted. Wok their places on the s'.age, the girls gowned in all colore of the rain- |J<J\V and the boys ixi dark coats with white trousers. The invocation was given by IU'V. A. S. Lowrie, following which the Girls' Glee Club sang Arthur Perm's \Bfliatress Margarita.\ The first three speakers took as their general subject \Our School.\ Burton Kleinsrhitlv spoke of \Its Educational Opportunities For All\ telling of the various cour$es and extra curricular opportunities offered by it;' Gordon Payne spoke \f it as \A Background for Higher Kducatioo,\ telling what a help a Medina High School diploma is to one going to an institution of higher education. Miss Geraldine Davis spoko of it as \A Prepara- tion for Successful Living\ and showed what a help it is in that respect. The High School Orches- tra played \The Calif of Bagdad Overture\ and the Boys' Glee Club sang \The House by the Side of the Road.\ The music rendered by both glee clubs and the orchestra was of the highest order. The con- cluding speaker, John Lynch, spake at length on \What I Owe My Community.\ He concluded by pledging the entire class to do these things he considered they owed the community.

J., the writer is more or iess disqualified from writing of the past week around town. The onventian, however, was a grand affair, with ten thousand Rotarians, attending from all over the world. Along the hoard walk could be distinguished the soft drawl of Texas delegates from under ten- gallon bats, the twang of repre- sentatives from New England, the slow, deliberate speech of repre- sentatives from, California and « ashiagton, and gentle Southern drawl of visitors from ftiyjtaifen beneath the Mason-Dude line. \ghty two foreign nations were represented tax all, including dele- ft* Us from Japan, China, Jugo?

He also stated that in the near future the proposition to enlarge the present high school building would be put up to the tax payers. H.e stated that our fine band and Orchestra were forced to practice in miserable quarters in the base- ment of tbe Central school, that some three hundred students get their lunch in the cafeteria during the winter, but it is so small & good share of them have to eat in the halls or other places, that they are badly in need' of- another gymna- sium and the heating plant is in need of repairs. He also stated that the board has been studying the situation for some time and that \Our welfare is their welfare,\ He then presented to these fortu- nate young men and women their Medina High School diplomas. In closing he called attention to the fine record of the school in the June examinations with a passing mark of 98.4 per cent. The ex- ercises were brought to a very fit- ting close when the class ros.e and sang the school's Alma Mater song. The class then marched from the auditorium preceded by the junior girls bearing their rope as the High School Orchestra played a march. Immediately following the exer- cises the faculty gave a reception to the class in the gymnasium which was also beautifully decor- ated for the occasion. Light re- freshments were served and an or- chestra furnished music for those who wished to dance. The final event of the 1939 Com- mencement was Class day.
