T. Medlin, Jr., used as the basis of his bacca laureate sermon to the High lands High school graduating class Sunday night the poem by Henry Van Dyke, entitled "Four Things". Mr. Medlin urged members of the class "to think without con fusion clearly". It is better, he said, not to think than to think with confusion and it is neces sary, he said, in this age that the graduate learn "to love his fellowmen sincerely". Again the minister suggested that the suc cessful graduate must by all means learn "to act from hon est motives purely". Motives, he said, form a definite part ol j {human life. | Finally, the class was urged | j "to trust in God and heaven securely". Never, the speaker said, have people become more interested in God or the hopes of immortality than at the pre$ jent; they have learned there is j a higher source of power than man has ever been able to cre ate or harness. He told the class to "make the best of every op portunity which comes your way. What you are a decade or a quarter of a century from now is up to you Your life is yours; make it count for some thing." The invocation and Scripture reading were by Dr Thom N. Carter, pastor of Highlands Bap tist church. "God of our Fath ers" and "Onward Christian Sol diers" were sung by the school choir. "Holy, Holy, Holy' and "All Hail the Power" were sung by choir and congregation. Pi anists were Miss Marion Lester and Mrs. Jack B. Davidson. "The Lord's Prayer" was sung as a benediction by the Rev. Jack B. Davidson, pastor of Highlands Presbyterian church.
