COMMENCEMENT. Graduating Exercises at the Opera House. Sweet Girl Graduates. The Essays. The sweet girl graduate was in her glory Friday evening. Attired faultlessly, in a gown that perhaps had been given quite as much attention as the preparation of her essay, she looked the sweetest of imaginable things, and gave abundant evidence moreover of her purpose, her school days over, to take her predestined place among the coming women of the nation. What troops of recollections come to one at commencement time? The old schoolhouse and the old-fashioned pedagogue, who slept—drowsy after his noonday meal—the lingering beams of roar light Making his kindly old face look warm and bright, While studies were forgotten in the usual romp that came with the afternoon. The lingering smile that played over the face of the kindly old man was evidence that he was communing with the angels above. Then, on awakening, with "Who made that noise?" coming eternally, and later on the ever-welcome "Clean your slates!" in a more evenly tempered tone of voice, and school was out. But one morning he was not in his accustomed place. His soul had sped in its flight, and a silent cortex told that the last dovoirs of earth were paid to one whose spirit had winged its flight into the realms of celestial peace where the innumerable dwell. Then, the new teacher, with the birch rod and the bushy red whiskers, and later the visit from the dreaded County Superintendent from over the hills, most teachers in Southern California, and his address, all too short in consequence of the lateness of the hour, was the best educational topics ever delivered here. Then followed the stirring strains of "Home, Sweet Home" by the band, and the large audience filed out at the hall and to their homes. After the exercises the graduates were congratulated by friends on all sides. All had been presented with beautiful bouquets during the evening, and it is safe to say that the moment was one of the happiest in their young lives. Saturday morning they were photographed in a group by Elliott, and thus was the last chapter in the commencement exercises over, and the young graduates were ready to go out and mingle with their fellow men and women of this community. May their lives be crowned with heaven's choiceest blessings, and may they live to become useful men and women and creditable members of society. THE ESSAYS. Volcanoes. BY FRANK SCHWENTKER. The grandest scene ever witnessed by any human eye is the eruption of a volcano. This name for a burning mountain was first applied to that which exists in the island of Hiera. It is derived from the name of the heathen God, Vulcan, whom the ancient heathen having defied, imagined on first seeing a burning mountain that Vulcan must have established his forge in the heart of it, and so, not unnaturally, named it Volcano. The received meaning of the word volcano is a mountain that ejects lava, earth, sulphurous vapors and ashes. A person generally imagines a volcano to be a mountain sending forth from its summit great clouds of smoke and vast sheets of flame. The truth is, however, that a true volcano dom emits either true smoke or true flame. That which is thought to be smoke consists but I believe it is nothing to do with civilization gains from serving me and working for me.

But one morning he was not in his accustomed place. His soul had sped in its flight, and a silent cortege told that the last devoirs of earth were paid to one whose spirit had winged its flight into the realma of celestial peace where the innumerable dwell. Then, the new teacher, with the birch rod and the bushy red whiskers, and later the visit from the dreaded County Superintendent from over the hills, with his blue goggles, and out of sorts and petulant because he had been caught out the night before in coming to town in the rain! And how he talked about it! And who could answer his questions? He couldn't himself, rest his soul! And the school exhibition and spelling match! Horrors! Let them be blotted from the memory. Stage fright and delirium in one, with fears and scornful deprecations for you in the morning, and "Couldn't spell" the verdict in the other—the toughest stage of life's miserable existence! But unhappy the man who would not live over those mingled hours of bliss and confusion. Times are changed, and there only a few of the best of us left. The Opera-house was in a blaze of light for the exercises. Everybody was there. The hall was tastefully decorated with flowers and evergreens, and streamers hung suspended from the ceiling, gathered in graceful folds on the sides around. Above the stage was the class motto, "Ad Astra." On the stage were the graduates, Zelma Bailey, Fritzie Heimann, Eula Perry, Blanche Mitchell, Dora Snyder, Rita Rivas, Harry Davis and Frank Schwentker. All of them had passed the final examinations, and were ready to receive their diplomas. With them was Prof. H. C. Keyes, Principal of the Throop Polytechnic College at Pasadena. Prof. Grogan was Master of Ceremonies. Shortly after 8 o'clock, the band having meanwhile enlivened the occasion with martial music, the exercises began by the singing of the school song by a stageful of Miss Hartley's class. Next came the recitation, "Lasca," by Fritzie Heimann, the salutatorian of the class. The difficult lines were rendered in admirable effect and with dramatic force, and showed the young lady to be posessed of elocutionary powers far beyond her years. The recitation was one of the gems of the programme. Frank Schwentker, with whom we have become somewhat acquainted by reading Zelma Bailey's biographical sketch of him, told the audience what he knew of "Volcanoes." Frank has a level head and his essay was a very creditable production. We hope his shadow may never grow less, and that he may continue to remain, as at present, solid with the girls. Next followed a double duet, by Bessie Schubert, Elenora Parker, Edna Williams There are several theories as to the cause of volcanoes. It is believed by a great many people that the interior of the earth is a red hot mass of rocks in a fluid state, and that a volcano is caused by the earth being cracked open by the various gases and steam that are generated in the interior of the earth, which also forces out the lava and other materials. This theory is not altogether accepted by most geologists, their point of opposition being that the interior of the earth cannot be in a fluid state on account of the enormous pressure exerted upon it from the surface, and experiments have proved that if any fluid or gas be placed under enough pressure it will be converted into a solid. Everybody knows that ground is heavier than water, and if a glass cube be sunk into the ocean for about a mile the pressure of the water will break it to pieces. How much more then would the pressure of the earth be at the depth of several thousand miles from the surface. They therefore believe that the interior of the earth is in a solid state, but is exceedingly hot and that a volcano is caused by the earth being forced open by the steam and various gases which also expel the lava and other material that is in the way. Then you would ask, "How do you account for the lava being in a fluid state when expelled?" It is simply this: As soon as the earth is forced open the rocks around the crevice are relieved from the enormous pressure and they at once, on account of being exceedingly hot, change to a fluid state. You may also ask, "How does the steam get in the interior of the earth?" It got there in this manner: Many rivers sink into the ground and never rise again. The water from these rivers goes down between the rocks and when it reaches these overheated places it is at once converted into steam. There are from three hundred to three hundred and thirty active volcanoes on the earth's surface. The most important of those are Etna, Stromboli, Kilauea, Catopaxi and Vesuvius. Etna is situated in the Mediterranean sea, on the island of Sicily. It has been a volcano from time immemorial, but its eruptions are not very frequent, the time averaging between them being about one hundred years. Stromboli is also in the Mediterranean sea, and is noted for being continually in action. The received meaning of the word volcano is a mountain that ejects lava, earth, sulphurous vapors and ashes. A person generally imagines a volcano to be a mountain sending forth from its summit great clouds of smoke and vast sheets of flame. The truth is, however, that a true volcano seldom emits either true smoke or true flame. That which is thought to be smoke consists merely of vast volumes of fine dust mingled with a great many other—chiefly sulphurous—vapors. That which appears to be flame is simply the reflection from the clouds of dust and steam, of the glare of the glowing materials that are ejected. A true volcano when in motion generally emits vast quantities of dust, various gases, steam, and last but not least comes to lava, which is the most destructive and is emitted in the largest quantities. Lava is composed of a mixture of various rocky substances, the most important of which is silica, commonly called white sand or quartz. There are several theories as to the cause of volcanoes. It is believed by a great many people that the interior of the earth is a red hot mass of rocks in a fluid state, and that a volcano is caused by the earth being cracked open by the various gases and steam that are generated in the interior of the earth, which also forces out the lava and other materials. This theory is not altogether accepted by most geologists, their point of opposition being that the interior of the earth cannot be in a fluid state on account of the enormous pressure exerted upon it from the surface, and experiments have proved that if any fluid or gas be placed under enough pressure it will be converted into a solid. Everybody knows that ground is heavier than water, and if a glass cube be sunk into the ocean for about a mile the pressure of the water will break it to pieces. How much more then would the pressure of the earth be at the depth of several thousand miles from the surface. They therefore believe that the interior of the earth is in a solid state, but is exceedingly hot and that a volcano is caused by the earth being forced open by the steam and various gases which also expel the lava and other material that is in the way. Then you would ask, "How do you account for the lava being in a fluid state when expelled?" It is simply this: As soon as the earth is forced open the rocks around the crevice are relieved from the enormous pressure and they at once, on account of being exceedingly hot, change to a fluid state. You may also ask, "How does the steam get in the interior of the earth?" It got there in this manner: Many rivers sink into the ground and never rise again.

Etna is situated in the Mediterranean sea, on the island of Sicily. It has been a volcano from time immemorial, but its eruptions are not very frequent, the time averaging between them being about one hundred years.

Next followed a double duet, by Bessie Schubert, Elenora Parker, Edna Williams and Alice Bates. Blanche Mitchell then read her essay on "Woman and Civilization," and was followed by music by the orchestra. Rita Rivas took for the title of her essay Helen Hunt Jackson's charming story of "Ramona." Zelma Bailey based her essay on "Class History," and treated the subject in an entertaining and at times humorous manner that provoked laughter, and was listened to with great interest by the large audience. Then followed a class song, and Dora Snyder's essay on "Freedom in America," and then Harry Davis recited "The Polish Boy" in a capital manner. Eula Perry's essay was on "Books and How to Use Them," and she treated the subject very entertainingly. The conversazioni, "93 in 13" between Edna Williams and Adela Mossomann was the humorous feature of the programme. It was rich, rare and racy, and with the essays printed further on, will well repay perusal. The conversazione detailed in a very happy way the changes that had taken place here from the present time up to the year 1913, and we believe the points were all well taken, although we should be pained to hear that Miss Hartley had been in London selling corn plasters! Miss Lillian Robison sang "The Woodbird's Song" very sweetly. The song was a difficult one—too much so, indeed, for amateur singers, but the lady sang with much effect, her well-modulated voice being under perfect control. Then followed the presentation of the diplomas by Prof. B. R. Grogan. Prof. Keyes next delivered an address on "Educating for Citizenship," as eloquent as it was able. Prot.

The relation of Women to Civilization. BLANCHE MITCHELL. Civilization, as it shows its advances and gains, from time to time exhibits to the observing mind in unmistakable signs the hand and work of women. Let us go back to the early years of Rome and Greece. At this time there was no such thing as an organized government; everything was carried according to military strength. The educational facilities were very poor; they had no free schools and no churches; they worshiped unreal gods. Whenever they wished for anything they would not work for it or exert themselves in the least, but would go to their god and ask him to grant their wish. Women were not allowed the advantages of what little education they did afford in those days. They had no power in public affairs; they were more servants of the opposite sex. The husband in the dark ages never considered his wife his equal; she was expected to wait on him and sing and dance for his amusement. The wife was never considered high enough to eat at the same table with her husband—not even the bride. Platonic friendship—that is, the friendship between two men—was considered the highest bond; there was no such thing as love between man and wife. On the death of the husband the wife was made to undergo all sorts of punishment. Sometimes she was buried alive with her husband, and sometimes burned to death. Later in the history of our world illustrations can be cited as to the husbands leaving their wives and marrying other women without going through any process of law. A good illustration of this fact is that of Napoleon, who left his wife, Josephine, and married another maiden. Women also had to work like beasts in those days. Think of the many illustrations we find in the Bible, among them Ruth, who was made to glean the wheat fields, and Rebecca, who watered the camels. The next step in the civilization of mankind is where women are beginning to be companions of men. The growth of education up to this time had been very wide, and women were now to a certain extent allowed the advantages of an education. As women became more and more educated, the literature became better and purer. From this time women are respected and looked up to. They gradually pushed onward in the introduction of civilization and as a result of these efforts, slavery and degradation are keeping away the Caucasian race in their desire to populate such a country. In those countries we find that women have never risen above the condition of slavery. Let us, therefore, feel proud in pointing out the advancement our dear country shows us in the highest ideal of God's work—women. History of the Class of 1932. ZELMA BAILEY. As it is customary for the alumni of colleges and institutions of learning to keep a record of their illustrious members, I think it fitting for us to keep a record of the doings of our graduates. It has not been the custom of those who have graduated before to do this, but no class has ever graduated here with such illustrious members as our graduates. And I think it right that we should do this to show their grand qualities to the public. After collecting statistics and long calculation, some averages of interest have been obtained. The average age of the class is 15 years, 11 months, 3 weeks, 4 days, 9 hours, 40 minutes and 26 seconds. The average height is 5 feet and 4 13 16,000 inches. The average weight is 117 pounds, 3 ounces, 2 pennyweight and 6 grains. The average number of gloves is 61. When I came to collect the statistics on the number of shoes I had great difficulty. First some member could not remember the number, because it was too large, and the class is not strong in mathematics. And part of the class insisted that they did not buy their shoes by the number but by the "foot." So, after much difficulty, I collected these statistics; but when I combined them the result went so high in decimal fractions that I gave up in despair and leave it for you to guess. The first name on our record is that of the valedictorian, Miss Eula Perry, daughter of Benjamin Perry and Nancy Guy Patton, who was born in Fayettville, near White river, Arkansas, July 24, 1877. Miss Perry moved to Anahale while very young. During her residence here she has held somebody important positions. Last year she was President of a very fashionable club of this city known as the Outing Club. When Miss Perry was in the fourth grade the following incident happened: There moved to Anaheim a family in which there were several girls who could talk but very little English. Miss Perry went out at rest to play with them, so they would not be lonely. The game was age-saw, and they had been playing only a short time when Miss Perry fell off hurting her ankle slightly, but she thought nothing about it. They had only been in school a little when it began to pain. The teacher advised her to go home, and sent a school-stimulated the adventurers with riches, power and distinction. These spirits, separated by a vast and litle ocean, assumed a degree of freedom foreknown in the old world. The conquests of Mexico and voyages of Drake and the Cabots, to De Soto, Balboa's discovery of the and obstacles overcome by the spirit of freedom, reliance, streng bravery. In such company freely always be found. The epoch of faith and compass passed into that colony. With the colonization came chapels from the crowned heads of Iberia. The endeavor to forge fetters for colonists was in a measure success colonists were in many cases seen some one connected with a gover order to take possession and hold pendency a certain tract of land were, however, circumstances favored the growth of freedom and who reached the shores of America, charter and contract, it was but as until they assumed an individual that was in many instances destined the colony. Many plunged into a country to establish for themselves and communities free from all laws strains, never again to submit to except of their own choosing. At a time colonists seeking freedom of form from the church and state, class we are more indebted for our freedom than to any others. The natives of America were simi-liberty loving people. Especially true with the Indians of North America were held only by their tribal and customs. They were a true oath in freedom to the colonies a refuge to the persecuted. One after the colonies sought freer actions mother countries attempted to fast governments, laws and custom. This gave rise to our grand rights of man as stated in the Declan Independence. This new gospel brought our blessed land many immigrants bosoms had long amounted to freedom. Other colonies to the south off the yoke of European monarchies deportation of Dom Pedro there but one under the rule of England to Canada and hope she may see her assume her just place among the publics or come under the glorious judele Sam.

While the constitution United States was ably formed rested on man yet several of the jealouses of their rights and liberty ratify it. Perhaps they were...

Think of the many illustrations we find in the Bible, among them Ruth, who was made to glean the wheat fields, and Rebecca, who watered the camels. The next step in the civilization of mankind is where women are beginning to be companions of men. The growth of education up to this time had been very wide, and women were now to a certain extent allowed the advantages of an education. As women become more and more educated, the literature became better and purer. From this time women are respected and looked up to. They gradually pushed onward in the interests of civilization, and as a result of their perseverance we find many of them on the throne. From this time onward we perceive traces of her footsteps in all that is elegant, liberal and elevating. No better illustration can be cited in this direction than Queen Isabella of Spain. We are forced to admit that her kind disposition and her prudent judgment, together with the wonderful firmness of purpose, were the only true and actual help in assisting Columbus, the discoverer of this great continent. The purest motives that civilization can cause governed this queen in her plans, and leaves her history her monument to us. When France was terrorized in consequence of the revolution we find one brave and powerful act done by Charlotte Corday, who took it upon herself to relieve France and the civilized world from the outrageous hands of Marat by taking his life. In the bitterest trials that Germany endured during the reign of Frederick the Great and his conquests with Napoleon, it was lovely Queen Louise that helped her people to carry the burden that continuous war brings forth. Her letters that were addressed to them from time to time were the only bright and hopeful rays in the surroundings of battle. Queen Elizabeth, during her rule, gave great help in the progress of literature by praying pensions to writers. Queen Victoria, during her rein of fifty years, has accomplished innumerable gains in regard to civilization. No more beautiful study in the pages of history can be found than that of the lives of some of the great female sovereigns who shared such oxalated positions with the stronger sex. Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe, in her literary work, can just claim that her book entitled "Uncle Tom's Cabin" assisted in the abolition of slavery, which was at that time the greatest vexation of the civilized populace of the United States. The contributors to the most instructive reading matter that is published to-day are to a great extent, women. The noblest one of the works that can be cited is that of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union; this whole army of women, working for the advancement of civilization, recognize the evil intolerance as one of its greatest drawbacks. The pages in history that shall be filled in reciting the great amount of good done by the work of these brave and untiring women will appear like the brightest of jewels. The early days of the pioneer life of California shows us in a strong contrast the change of that time and period when women even in small numbers, were counted among the settlers of the "Golden State." Ruffianism and the lynch laws, which were quite common in those days, gradually subsided when woman came and a home was established. Woman is without a doubt by nature endowed with the very principles that civilization to Anahalea while very young. During her residence here she has held some important positions. Last year she was President of a very fashionable club of this city known as the Outing Club. When Miss Perry was in the fourth grade the following incident happened: There moved to Anahalea a family in which there were several girls who could talk but very little English. Miss Perry went out at recess to play with them, they would not be lonely. The game was see-saw, and they had been playing only a short time when Miss Perry fell off, hurting her ankle slightly, but she thought nothing about it. They had only been in school a little when it began to pain. The teacher advised her to go home, and sent a schoolmate with her. The ankle began to grow so that Miss Perry was bliged to get down on her hands and knuckle crawl home. Her mother, who was sitting at the window, seeing her crawling along, supposed it was a childish trick, and immediately came to meet Miss Perry with a peach tree switch. The kindness shown by Miss Perry in playing with these girls, and also the perseverance in crawling home, are illustrative of her distinguishing characteristics, and have enabled her to crawl to the top of the class for three years, and also to be valedictorian to-night. I am glad to introduce to the public tonight our next most distinguished member, our salutatoran, Mrs Fritzia Heimann, daughter of Arthur Heimann and Clothilde Lavatschek, who opened her blue eyes in Anaheim, California, June 5, 1876. Miss Heimann claims the distinction of being the tallest in the class, but when she was a baby the biggest ran in other directions, as she was broader than tall, and her younger sister was just the opposite. Once while they were playing Miss Heimann fell on top of her sister, and passed the remark "the castle tumbled or shanty." (The younger survived!) Miss Heimann at that time foretold her future, insamuch as she has been a castle towering above the rest of her class in school work. But I am glad to say none of the class have ever suffered as the poor shanty to which she compared her sister. The first and most distinguished young man in our classes Mr. Harry Davis, son of Guaste Davis and Helena Mendelson, who was born in Anaheim, California March 16, 1876. Mr. Davin being the son of a very prominent merchant here has traveled a great deal in thier interests of the firm. Some of the most notable places he has visited are Santa Monica, Los Angeles, Santa Ana, Orange and Tustin, and he has even been known to venture so far as San Juan Capitano. Although Mr. Davis has been affiliated late as Job was, and has even shown more than Job's patience, he has progressed rapidly and is now numbered among the graduates. Miss Dora Snyder, daughter of George Washington Snyder and Olive McIntire, was born in Richland, Iowa, February 12, 1879. Miss Snyder has been residing in Anaheim for quite a while, only being away on short visits to Los Angeles and other cities. Although Miss Snyder has a sister and brother who have graduated from this school, neither received more honor then she, as she is the youngest of the class. The least in weight but not in brains is Mr. Frank Schwentker, son of John Henry Schwentker and Mary Koerner, who was born in Western Nebraska, January 1878. Mr. Frank moved to our city while very young. But he has not spent all of his time here, as he has visited some of the most important cities, such as San Francisco and Garden Grove. Boldness and gallantry are his chief characteristics, which of course make him a favorite with the ladies. His pure gems. You may judge a man more truly books and papers he reads, and they read them than by the company for his associates are often impaired him. But his reading is a result and the man who chooses a certain books and papers unconsciously more colored in their views and made in their opinions. Generally at of intemperance as one of its greatest drawbacks. The pages in history that shall be filled in reciting the great amount of good done by the work of these brave and untiring women will appear like the brightest of jewels. The early days of the pioneer life of California shows us in a strong contrast the change of that time and period when women, even in small numbers, were counted among the settlers of the "Golden State." Ruffianism and the lynch laws, which were quite common in those days, gradually subsided when woman came and a home was established. Woman is without a doubt by nature endowed with the very principles that civilization inspires to a much greater degree than man. The unrelenting spirit that governs man as a rule, especially when found in power, is not often seen or felt in the character of woman. There was a time when women were not allowed to enter the pulpit, to teach school, to be admitted to the bar or to study medicine. The condition of our government, schools and churches show in the strongest light the capability of women and their equality to man. The educational facilities of our public schools, in which the fate of our nation rests, are almost entirely in the hands of women. How often we find the pulpit filled with the presence of earnest and intelligent women. We also find that women for some time have pursued the study of law and medicine, and that the highest reward that the colleges of these branches can award has been given to members of the weaker sex. Nearly all the colleges of the United States, England and France are now open to women. As she gradually pushes onward we may safely say that some time in the near future we will perceive her presence in the presidential chair of this great union. Too much credit cannot be given nor too much honor be bestowed on Mrs. Potter Palmer, who, as president of the committee on woman's work, has with untiring efforts succeeded in making the women's exhibit a special one, and one to be justly proud of. The woman's building at Chicago gives testimony to the ability of that which lies in the hands and minds of the civilized women of this country. The very active part that the American women have taken in assisting the great exhibition of all the industries known to our civilized world, now displayed at Chicago, cannot fail to impress upon the minds of all visitors the fact that women in America are leading in the course of civilization. What a sad picture is given us to-day in the appearance of the densely populated country of China, and still worse that of South Africa. The standing of civilization in those lands appear to us so dark that we can scarcely refer to them except in a sense for quite a while, only being away on short visits to Los Angeles and other cities. Although Miss Snyder has a sister and brother who have graduated from this school, neither received more horror then she, as she is the youngest of the class. The least in weight but not in brains is Mr. Frank Schwentker, son of John Henry Schwentker and Mary Koerner, who was born in Western Nebraska, January 5, 1878. Mr. Frank moved to our city while very young. But he has not spent all of his time here, as he has visited some of the most important cities, such as San Francisco and Garden Grove. Boldness and gallantry are his chief characteristics, which of course make him a favorite with the ladies. His mathematical power is very great, and also in this case he is a favorite, as he is a help to the girls when they cannot solve their problems in algebra. Miss Rita Rivas, daughter of Francisco Rivas and Antonia Flores, first opened her brown eyes in Pitiquito, Sonora, March 5, 1876. Miss Rivas was one of the earliest settlers here, having moved to the United States while very young. Miss Blanche Mitchell, the baby and only daughter of Newell Harris Mitchell and Henrietta Melsheimer, first saw the light in Anaheim, California, July 30, 1877. Once when Miss Mitchell was six years old she and her little brother Willie were in the yard playing. And as all babies enjoy getting into mischief, they thought it would be fun to put their high chairs on a table and then for Miss Mitchell to get on top of them. So, as there was a table in the yard little Willie first put his chair up it and then the baby put her on top of that. Then she ascended to the uppermost seat with great dignity, but had no sooner been seated than over went the table, baby and all. Thus it has always been Miss Mitchell's chief characteristic through life to climb to the top of things, and she has reached the first round of the ladder-to-night, and therefore is one of the graduates. Last but not least comes the name of Zelma Bailey, but feminine modesty and bashfulness prevent the discussion of her. The public must not think that I have given all the good points. They were so numerous it was a very hard task to choose among them; and also I have chosen the simplest ones, because this being the first information given about the class, I knew the public would not be equal to the great shock which it would give them to hear of the others. The Growth of Freedom in America. DORA SNYDER The growth of freedom in America has been in the main gradual, its greatest strides being the landing of the Pilgrim Fathers and the Declaration of Independence. The discovery of America by Columbus in 1492 torqued a while, only being away on short visits to Los Angeles and other cities. Although Miss Snyder has a sister and brother who have graduated from this school, neither received more horror then she, as she is the youngest of the class. The least in weight but not in brains is Mr. Frank Schwentker, son of John Henry Schwentker and Mary Koerner, who was born in Western Nebraska, January 5, 1878. Mr. Frank moved to our city while very young. But he has not spent all of his time here, as he has visited some of the most important cities, such as San Francisco and Garden Grove. Boldness and gallantry are his chief characteristics, which of course make him a favorite with the ladies. His mathematical power is very great, and also in this case he is a helper to the girls when they cannot solve their problems in algebra. Miss Rita Rivas, daughter of Francisco Rivas and Antonia Flores, first opened her brown eyes in Pitiquito, Sonora, March 5, 1876. Miss Rivas was one of the earliest settlers here, having moved to the United States while very young. Miss Blanche Mitchell, the baby and only daughter of Newell Harris Mitchell and Henrietta Melsheimer, first saw the light in Anaheim, California, July 30, 1877. Once when Miss Mitchell was six years old she and her little brother Willie were in the yard playing. And as all babies enjoy getting into mischief, they thought it would be fun to put their high chairs on a table and then for Miss Mitchell to get on top of them. So, as there was a table in the yard little Willie first put his chair op it and then the baby put her on top of that. Then she ascended to the uppermost seat with great dignity, but had no sooner been seated than over went the table, baby and all. Thus it has always been Miss Mitchell's chief characteristic through life to climb to the top of things, and she has reached the first round of the ladder-to-night, and therefore is one of the graduates. Last but not least comes the name of Zelma Bailey, but feminine modesty and bashfulness prevent the discussion of her. The public must not think that I have given all the good points. They were so numerous it was a very hard task to choose among them; and also I have chosen the simplest ones, because this being the first information given about the class, I knew the public would not be equal to the great shock which it would give them to hear of the others.

These restless separated by a vast and little known assumed a degree of freedom hereto-known in the old world. conquests of Mexico and Peru, the wars of Drake and the Cabots, the travels Soto, Balloa's discovery of the Pacific are obstacles overcome by them gave a of freedom, reliance, strength and unity. In such company freedom may be found. The epoch of discovery frequent passed into that of colonizing, the colonization came charters and from the crowned heads of Europe, endeavor to forge fetters for the early wars was in a measure successful. The wars were in many cases sent out by one connected with a government in to take possession and hold as a dey a certain tract of land. There however, circumstances favorable to growth of freedom and while they had the shores of America, bound by contract, it was but a short time they assumed an individual freedom was in many instances destructive to liberty. Many plunged into this vast way to establish for themselves homes communities free from all laws and re- never again to submit authority of their own choosing. At last there colonists seeking freedom of conscience the old church and state. To this we are more indebted for our ideas of man than to any others. natives of America were singularly a loving people. Especially was this with the Indians of North America, who were held only by their tribal relations customs. They were a true object less freedom to the colonies and also a to persecuted. One after another colonies sought freer actions while the countries attempted to fasten their movements, laws and customs upon this gave rise to our grand ideas of man as stated in the Declaration of Independence. This new gospel brought to assessed land many immigrants in whose had long amouldered the flame of man. Other colonies to the south throw yoke of European monarchies. Since importation of Dom Pedro there remains under the rule of England. I refer ada and hope she may see her way to her just place among the sister secreta or come under the glorious banner Sam. It should be hoped by every loving citizen that the Hawaiian Island accept the just, generous and persuasion of President Cleveland to form a form of government resembling man. While the constitution of the States was ably formed, reserving to citizens the greatest freedom ever con- man, yet several of the colonies, of their rights and liberty, hesitated by it. Perhaps they were right at ation to the mind. For instance, the body sometimes, through overwork, becomes weak and jaded and a sojourn in the country is recommended. The change of scene, now persons and gentle exercises soon restore the physical powers to their health. In the same way the mind is often harassed and weakened by its own anxious thoughts. Under such circumstances a good novel is to the mind what a sojourn in the country is to the body. For example, I know of a minister who, after preaching or doing any such work, reads a few pages in any good novel and he says it does him more good than anything else. Everybody has read books that contained two elements in them—the good and the bad. Which impressed you most? The bad! The heart of most people is like a sieve, which lets the small particles of gold fall through but keeps the great cinders. Once in a while there is a mind like a loadstone, which plunged amid steel and brass filings, gathers up the steel and repels the brass. But it is nearly always just the opposite. If you attempt to plunge through a hedge of burs to get but a blackberry, you will get more burs than berries. Young people cannot afford to read bad books, no matter how good they are. They say, "The influence is resignificant." I tell you that the scratch of a pin has sometimes produced the lock jaw. Alas, through curiosity, as many do, you pry into an evil, your curiosity is as dangerous as that of a man who should take a torch into a powder magazine merely to see whether it really would blow up or not. Reading does as much, if not more, towards educating young people than their school life does. Therefore, whenever you economize do not cut off the supply of good literature. Have the best books, best papers and the best magazines, though you turn your old black silk once or twice more and make the old coat do duty another season. You may go without pies and cakes or without butter on your bread, but if you care for your family's best happiness and progress, you will not go without the best of books, such as Irving, Bancroft, Cooper, Hawthorne, Longfellow, Whitier, Dickens and Scott. To show that this is true first look at the poor uneducated man who has never had the opportunity of learning to think or read. His intellect is still confined in his five senses. He sees and cares for nothing but the dull images of the byways along which he trods, the beasts of the field, the forms of his relatives and neighbors, and the slow course of agricultural life. Naturale has no charms for him. In his daily work, as he passes the beautiful flowers by the roadside or in the field and plows up insects, he never stops to think who made all these things. They do not give him the least thought of God and bring him no pleasure. "A primrose by the river's brim A yellow primrose to him what time the next train leaves for Anaheim? EDNA—Yes, I can—why, Adele Mosseman; is it possible I can believe my eyes! [Kisses her.] ADELE—Am I really looking at my old friend and cham, Edna Williams! Oh, I am so glad to see you! How long it has been since I hast saw you, and how you have changed! EDNA—And you—are you going back to Anaheim? ADELE—Yes; I have not been there twenty years now. Do tell me all about the old place and people. Are you still Edna Williams? EDNA—Oh, no; I have been Mrs. Alfonso Fossek for fifteen years now, and I have the clearest husband in all the world. You have no doubt heard that he is owner of the big warehouse and wharf at Anaheim Lauding now. We have a lovely home near the beach, with elegant grounds and park. You will of course visit us at our home. And tell me about yourself now. ADELE—Well, I—am still Adele Mosseman, but I need not be if I did not sowished. Still I need not be to devote my life to the noble art of writing, and I have just now received a copy of my third edition of "Effects of Dress Reform on Civilization." Would you like to see it?—but then I can show it to you some other time. Let us talk now. I am just out on a short canvassing tour and thought I'd run down to Anaheim to see the old friends. You seem to have been on a journey. EDNA—Oh, yes; you know I was elected senator from Anaheim two years ago, and have just been up to San Jose to the last session. How much nicer, the capital is than the old one, and you have no idea what a fine officer Governor Davis is. ADELE—Governer Davis? Not Harry Davis of the class of '93? EDNA—Yes, Harry Davis; did you not know he has been governor of California for four years? ADELE—No, I have been abroad for the last ten years and have heard nothing from Anaheim for years. Do tell me all about the old place. Has Harry brought forward any political measures of importance? EDNA—Why, yes; it was through his eloquence that the bill giving women the right to hold office in California and vote was given. Oh, yes, he is one of the leading politicians of the United States now, and we call him the silver-tongued orator of Santa Ana, the Henry Clay of the twentieth century and the Gladstone of America. I helped him last week to arrange a bill for our next session that will probably make an appropriation of $20,000,000 for establishing a military and naval academy at Anaheim. ADELE—Well, well!

EULA PERRY. Guard De Bury says, "In books we find as it were living; in books we foreings to come. These are the masters construct us with rods and ferules, withward words and auger. If you appete them they are not asleep; if investiguire them; they conceal; if you mistake them, they never lie; if you are ignorant, they cannot at you." He be true, and no thoughtful person do it, how often do we lose great opities. When you study readers care you will find that they are divided our classes. First is that class whose age run in and run out, leaving almost pression behind. A second is like a which imbibes everything and reit in the same state, only a little A third is like a jelly bag, allowthat is pure to pass away and retainly the refuse and dregs. The fourth a miner in a diamond mine who, castide all that is worthless, obtains only gems. may judge a man more truly by the and papers he reads, and the way he them, than by the company he keeps, associates are often imposed upon. But his reading is a result of choice, he man who chooses a certain class of and papers unconsciously becomes colored in their views and more rooted in opinions. Generally at the time to show that this is true first look at the poor uneducated man who has never had the opportunity of learning to think or read. His intellect is still confined in his five senses. He sees and cares for nothing but the dull images of the byways along which he trods, the beasts of the field, the forms of his relatives and neighbors, and the slow course of agricultural life. Nature has no charms for him. In his daily work, as he passes the beautiful flowers by the roadside or in the field and plows up insects, he never stops to think who-made all these things. They do not give him the least thought of God and bring him no pleasure. "A primrose by the river's brim A yellow primrose is to him And It is nothing more." He knows naught of the past and his soul is tied to that small spot of earth's surface on which he moves in his daily rounds. Then look at the educated man. He sits in his library with a clear head, sympathetic heart and lively fancy, surrounded by books on every subject and in almost every tongue. In this way he meets great men and becomes better acquainted with them perhaps than those who hear their names and sit at their tables. For him nature has many charms. Put him in the uneducated man's place and the life that was dull and stupid for the latter will be full of delight and beautiful things for the educated man. He will spend many pleasant hours in studying the flowers by the roadside and in the field, trying to find how, when and by whom they were made. He also finds company in the smallest of insects. The primrose by the river's brim means a great deal more to him than merely a yellow primrose. And as Wordsworth says, "To him the meanest flower that blows can give Thoughts that do often lie too deep for tears." He learns of the past, knows the chief subjects of the day and is able to judge what will be in the future. He can talk on any subject and his company is enjoyed by everyone. Some one has said: "A reading people must soon become a thinking people and a thinking people must soon become a great people. Take away the printing press and the vast educating power of the school and college would soon come to an end. Just think for one moment what our country would be and how it would effect us if all the printing presses in the world should suddenly stop work. No home is complete without a library, for it is one of the necessaries of life. It is not like a dead city of stones, yearly crumbling and needing repair, but like an overlasting tree. There it stands, yielding its precious fruit from year to year and from age to age. As a moral guard to a young man or woman, good books are invaluable. To cultivate a taste for such reading keeps one quietly at home and prevents a thirst for exciting recreation and debasing pleasure. It makes him scorn whatever is low, coarse and vulgar. It prevents that weary and restless temper which drives so many to the saloon, if not the gambling table, where they spend their leisure hours. If you once form the habit of domestic reading you will at any time prefer an interesting book to frequenting the haunts of vice. Now as to the effect of biographies, history and poetry. The study of biography will cure us of affectionation and conceit; it leads us to imitate the grandeur models of the human race; it gives us knowledge of the past; and should properly studied increase our faith in God's providence. History is founded on a great law of our nature. The student of history can use the old place. Has Harry brought forward any political measures of importance? EDNA-Why, yes; it was through his eloquence that the bill giving women the right to hold office in California and vote was given. Oh, yes; he is one of the leading politicians of the United States now, and we call him the silver-tongued orator of Santa Ana, the Henry Clay of the twentieth century and the Gladstone of America. I helped him last week to arrange a bill for our next session that will probably make an appropriation of $20,000,000 for establishing a military and naval academy at Anheim. ADELE-Well, well! Anaheim is growing sure if it needs such a school. EDNA-Oh, yes; you would scarcely know the town. It claims 50,000 now, I think. EDNA-Well, they started a sugar factory there, and it proved so successful that in a short time the whole region between Anaheim and the Landing was covered with houses and farms. Now there are half-dozen immense factories there, and thousands of tons are shipped from the Landing every year. That is why we chance to live there. A $75,000 warehouse and a wharf that cost $1,000,000 have been put up, and Alfons is president of the association that owns them. Why, Anaheim Landing is the second shipping port on the coast now. You have no idea how things have changed. Some of the finest dwellings in the State are found here, and it is quite a summer resort. ADELE-And now Harry Davis is going to have a military school there? I wonder what ever made him think of that? EDNA-Oh that is all the work of his wife, Blanche. ADELE-Blanche? Blance who! EDNA-Why, Blanche Mitchell. You know they were married several years ago, and the amount of good that woman does is remarkable. You should see her home—elegant, stylish. My, she is the leader of the fashionable world in San Jose, but she never forgets Anaheim, and this school is her own thought. ADELE-How lovely of her. That is much like that I heard of Zelma Bailey last month. EDNA-What was that? ADELE-Don't you know? Well, last month as I was admiring a famous picture in Rome some one came up to me with extended hand. I recognized the smiling countenance of an old friend, Wallace Scott, and after a few remarks, I noticed that the artist's name was Zelma Scott, and he told me it was the work of his wife, our old friend Zelma Bailey. Oh she is very well known abroad as an artist, and this picture is to be sold and the money goes for clearable purposes. Wallace told me also that he had been to the opera recently and heard that famous voice that every one is going wild over. You of course know whom I mean. EDNA-Yes, it is Frank Schwentker's. Who would have thought when we used to sing those old songs in school that we had such a voice among us. Still 93 had some very strong members. Oh Adela, do you know what day this is? ADELE-No, I don't remember. EDNA-Why, it is June 9th. Just twenty-three years ago to night the class of '93 had their commencement. ADELE-Yo, be sure. Do you know whether Frank has ever married? EDNA-Oh, yes; he married Dora Suyder. She was a member of that class, you know. She has acquired quite a little fame as a cornetist. She plays beautifully. I heard her at the celebration in 1900 in New York. A third is like a jelly bag, allowthat it is pure to pass away and retainly the refuse and dregs. The fourth is a miner in a diamond mine who, castide all that is worthless, obtains only gems. May judge a man more truly by the papers he reads, and the way he them, than by the company he keeps, associates are often imposed upon. But his reading is a result of choice, the man who chooses a certain class of and papers unconsciously becomes colored in their views and more rooted for opinions. Generally at the time young people are about to finish the room education, the temptation to correading is the strongest. If this tempcan be overcome and the mind awakto a mainly independence and started course of vigorous self culture, all will well. But wee to the man or woman follows the temper to get the better of whose mind sinks into a state of indifferent to its own needs, and to the highest ends and aims of life. For every few, ever rouse themselves in mida new intellectual taste. Youth is time for us to cultivate a taste for reading. I'm sure there is not a school for girl but what has an ideal whom he would like very much to resemble in better if we read such books as "Lady Lake" and "Evangeline" we will entorment to be like the characters given in and cannot help becoming better men women. But if we read "detective" and books with ignoble characters, will get false ideas of greatness and ism, which often lead to crime. It is really dangerous for young people to books which present false pictures of life. Life is not a tragedy nor a Men are not all either knaves or Women are neither angels nor And yet, if you depend upon much of literature of the day, you would get idea that life, instead of being something and practical, is a fitful, fantastic extravagant thing. Are young men or men who spent last night wading through passages descriptive of magnificent very and wickedness, prepared for the of to-day? No! The young man will looking all day for his heroine, in the tin at the postoffice, store or in fact any where a girl might be found. But in he does not succeed and he will be disfied. A girl who reads these dime will be unittied for the duties of a or daughter. There she sits, countervee vacant, checks pale, hands trembling, into tears at midnight over the fate some unfortunate lower; in the day time, she should be busy, staring the halfnothing and biting her finger nails to quick.
