Attended By Large Crowds Editor Beasley Speaks to Largest Assemblage * Beer Gathered ia Martepelltaa. Last week marked the dosing of tha 1(14-16 term of Dunn Graded Schools, and the crowds attendant upon tha closing exercises wire larger than upon any similar event In the history of education la this city. Wednesday evening tbo music class conducted by Miss Iva Pearson gave a moat creditable recital in tha school auditorium. That eras follow ad Thursday evening by a very Inter teting and eutartaing piano redial by mambera of Mias Emilio's Ger trude Jackson's class. Tbs redtals possessed real merit. Ailed with beautiful classic selections whose ex cellent rendition gas convincing evi dence that tha participants had had master training . The finale came Friday evening in the Metropolitan Theatre, when, fol lowing songs and instrumental music Hob. Roland F. Beasley, editor of the Monroe Journal, spoke to the in terests of reformed education in the preaenca of the largest assemblage of Dunn's dtlaeni over gathered In that building. Mr. Beasley's speech was. a decided departure from the usual commencement address. Ha did act coma to blind oa to tha fault! of our present-day methods by sweet soending phrases of praise for doing leas than oar duties;' nor did he come to And fault, atpeeially, but ha did coma aa near to “knocking" as it it possible for the guiding genius of a really live newspaper to do. Among many other good things he said was tnet IM reason Ul* acboot attendance was no better was because pupil* were net given what they wanted, and needed meet. It ia one thing to cram a child’s mind with useless text book knowledge, and another to tell that child to go forth into the world to battle for existence, armed with only a superficial undarstaading at tha things which ba is to combat at tbatr day win prove at ttttla help to oar sons and daughters in their battles for success la this fast mov ing age. Industrial education is the thing. We must have done with sup erficialities, end get down to the real problems aa they come before at. That was tha keynote of the edi tor’s talk. Be said many things which should awaken hit hearer* to a fuller realisation of their duties to humanity, and it eras all good. Tha Dispatch regrets that it cannot publish his speech la tta entirety. After Mr. Beasley's speech Super intendent Martin prestated certifi cates at award and at promotion. Mr. R. G. Taylor, chairman at the school board presented diplomas.-and the Rev. Baylua Cade presented Bibles to the graduating class. Members of the graduating class are; Misses EUa Black, Ethel Bai ley, Plata Dowd, Gladys Jsruigan, Contone Jackson, Mr. Casper War ren.
