for tlu» knowledge she has gained and is a deserving girl and a promising student. “Miss Tracy Kramer wound up the exercises of the happy and elevating occasion by rendering a piano solo entitled ‘The witch’s Dance,' in a masterly manner. “The doxology was rendered, after which Rev. Jamison dismissed the audience with the benediction. “The graduating class of ’92 is composed of four girls and one boy. The able manner in which their addresses were composed, and the brilliant style in which they delivered them has been the comment of the city since the event. It was hardly realized that such talent' existed here. If the members of this graduating class will but push forward and bend their enegries as they have in the past the members will individually make their mark in the world. “The ladies all looked very pretty in their white dresses beautifully set oft- with handsome bouquets of choicest flowers, while Frank Snively looked handsome in his manly dignity and utter self possession. “The amount taken in at the door was 43. The expenses amounted to 31, leaving a net surplus of 12, which goes into the school library fund. Elwood’s first high school commencement was a great success, and will live long in the memories of those who participated in and attended it.” The commencement of 1920 will differ in many respects from the first. This year our graduates number forty-nine, which is a decrease of about twenty f:om T9. In place of the Grand opera house, the event will be held in the auditorium. An eminent speaker, in many cases a university representative, delivers the address which takes the place of the shoit addresses originally given by the graduates themselves. The diplomas are presented by A. W. Konold. Sunday preceding the commencement exercises a Baccalaureate sermon is given at one of the local churches to the departing seniors. This is an occasion which every graduate remembers throughout his life. How different is the E. II. S. of this present day than that of the olden days. In 92 the enrollment was 55, now 378 are enrolled, not only in enrollment has the school shown great advancement but also there is a great increase in the faculty. From the original two, on the faculty, the number has now reached the point of eighteen. This increase in faculty is sufficient proof that the course of study has been greatly changed. Much of our progress and success is due to the unceasing efforts of our superintendent, i thur W. Konold, who came as Supei int. nd-en, of the El wood Public Schools from W mcna i„ 191G. It is through his devotion to his task that the school has reached its high maik ot attainment. When he took up his work here the high school had practically no athletics and seemingly no hopes of ever having anv. Undaunted by the lack ot interest shown m anv form of physical development he continued’ in an attempt to prove the necessity ot physical as well as mental instruction How well he has succeeded is ably shown b he a,,,, spirit of sportsmanship displaced 1 the .I ,,,;1i„ .-very ins.. Not oulv in this way but in a financial way athletics have prospered in as much as the teams are now provided with the best of material and there is money in the treasury. Further there is offered to the students four years of Latin, three of French lour of. English, three of History, three ot Math eunat.es, one year of Physical Geography, Mechanical Drawing, Physics Domestic Science, Manual Irain.nd and Agn-culture. A recent addition to the course is a half vear of Harmony and another halt year of History and Musical Appreciation, tor the benefit of those desiring to learn a musical instrument capable teachers have been procured who give piano, violin and comet Its sons Under the supervision of the high school music teacher an orchestra, composed of students, is prepared to render selections at school entertainments. May the school prosper and advance in the future as it has in the past! Following is a list of the graduates from ’92 to ’20 inclusive: Page Eight
