7th Grade Graduating Exercises
Rev. L. F. Kent, rector of St.
Paul's Episcopal Church, was
[speaker at the seventh grade grad
uating exercises on Monday morn- 1
ing. May 8th. at 10:30 o'clock. j
Rev. Kent's talk to this group (
of young folks dealt with the idea
that the whole of life is a new }
I commencement. He spoke of how j
' we commence to walk, to fnlk.
and of how we commence to go to
school to be educated.
To these boys and girls, he said.
"You are going into a new type of
j life because you deserve it, be
cause 4t seems logical, not just be
cause your teacher and principal
like you. You are graduating from j
l the seventh grade because you ?
have fulfilled the laws of educa- i
lion."
When you enter high school, th-e
1 speaker continued, you will use
those same laws of education. I
Out of endings come new begin- j
nings. Therefore we should look
ahead and prpare for what it to '
come.
In closing. Rev. Kent expressed
i the hope that each one of this
- graduating ch^ss after leaving
, school might lead not particularly
> a life of happiness (for happiness
i does not always come with ser
vice) but a life of usefulness to
mankind.
At the beginning and conclusion
of this program the seventh grade
accompanied by Mrs. O. Y. Yar
borough. gave two musical selec
tions, Springtime, by Strauss, and
Summer's Come, the words of
which were composed by Helen
Tucker, a member of the graduat

Graduating: Exercises
"Home is the first institution of

Mr. Claude F. Gaddy, Superinten
dent of the Raleigh City Schools
at the Mills High School commen
cement exercises on Tuesday
night. "My philosophy of educa
tion is a way of life," said Mr. j
Daddy.
'<1 Mr. Gaddy went on to state that
there is no one who believes in
the two subjects of reading and
writing any more than he,
but is not the greatest
curses we have today. There
are many more and every man and
woman in each community of this
fair State of ours should endeav
or to rid these disadvantages and
push the advantages.
Mr. Gaddy likened the seniors
and the audience to the stars. Lit- 1
tie stars shine, shoot and fade
away while large stars have faith.
He advised them to have faith in
whatever they set out to do and
stick to it. Have ability in your- 1
self to judge value. "Evidently
your presence here tonight repre
sents that you have found value
in something." he stated to the
seniors. "Have you learned to
work? Have you learned to resist
temptation?"
"What tlie world ileeds today Is
that people strive to do what tlioy
consider their best and reach their
own sa Usfaction," stated Mr. Gad
dy. "I ask that you. graduating
senior, carry with you the willing
ness to work and to make some
thing of yourselves which will be
a monument to you."
Mr. Gaddy was introduced by
Mr. W. C. Styowd, Principal of
Mills High School.
? After the pinging of one verse
of America. Invocation was given
by Rev. J. G. Phillips. The Wel
come address was given by Miss
Bobbie Parrish, (he Salutatorlan
of the class.
The valedictory address was
given by May Davis.
Miss Ann Allen, accompanied
by Mrs. O. Y. Yarborough, ren
dered a very beautiful solo enti
tled "Down in The Forest."
At this time Mr. Strowd An
nounced that Miss Prances Spivey
of the eighth grade at Mills High
School won second place In the
Essay contest.
Supt. W. R. Mills was Introduc
ed by Mr. Strowd to deliver the
diplomas to the seniors, but in
stead he stressed the facts of Mr.
Gaddy's address and asked Mr.
Strowd to deliver the diplomas.
The diplomas were delivered to
the following graduating seniors
