HIGH SCHOOL COMMENCEMENT FEATURES OF INTEREST FOR STUDENTS AND FRIENDS Crowded House for Senior Play — Reception to Graduates by Fellow Pupils—Sixteen Receive Diplomas The first of the Commencement affairs was the senior play, "The Schoolmistress," given at the opera-house on Wednesday evening, June 9. It was under the direction of Miss Gertrude Hards of Los Angeles, and the careful training resulted in the parts being taken with more than ordinary amateur ability. The house was crowded, and the interest of the audience was kept up during the entire evening. At 8:30 the curtain rose for the first act, and proceeded without any unnecessary delay until the end. Crowther's orchestra furnished the music. The attractive appearance of the stage was increased by the new scenery put in by the class, under direction of Miss Ames. Probably the most interesting event of commencement week was the reception given by the under classes to the departing seniors the night before graduation. This has come to be the most important social affair of the school year. The freshman class have the decorating in charge and this year outdid any previous attempt. The main corridor was changed into a bower of ferns, potted plants and palms, with the class colors, green and gold, as the chief idea. Through the kindness of Mrs. Gates many beautiful designs were furnished. The sophomores are sampled for soil analysis.
