During his stay at the Hotel Nor-

One of the Most Beau-
tiful Gemmencements in
the History of hillside Cele-
brated last Evening. Mark-
ed the lhirieenth Year of
the School

One of the. most beautiful com-
mencements ever celebrated at Hill-
side closed last evening the thirteenth
year of Mrs. Mead‘s school in Norwalk.
During that time. many well trained
girls have gone. out from the school In-
to college or into the other openings for
good in their various homes,'but no
class was ever graduated from the
School on the Illll with brighter hopes
than the class of l903. The ten beau.
Ilful girls who composed the class. had
everything to make them glad and joy-
ous; and as they took their places in
the hall at the beginning of the exer-
cises, made a charming picture. which
was the most effective of all the love-
ly floral decorations. There were
pink roses everywhere, with trailing
vines over pink backgrounds. The
stairway was a mass of dark green
glossy leaves filled in with the roses.
while on a shield of green was dis-
played the “ '03." which was very effec-
time.

The Weldenhammer Orchestra of
four pieces gave a fine program of mu
sic before the. exercises,

The program for the evening was
as follows:

The essays of the young ladies were

special courses of study pursued in the
school during the past year. Only
four of the ten essays could be read.
but as It was not known till within a
few days what essays were to appear

Before presenting the diplomas. Mrs.
Mead spoke of the school Ideals
work. and what It had already accom-

She mentioned special courses of
study that had been emphasized dur-

especially of the work done. In Econo

Miss Jeannette L. Gregory. now Mrs.
Homer Byington. and in the History of

ful benediction pronounced by Rev.
James Edward Coley, the Commence-
ment exercises were over.

Mrs. Mead and the graduates re-
ceived the congratulations of their
friends In the Assembly Room on. the
second story. The floral gifts made a
magnificent display. There were over
sixty pieces In all. They werebank-
ed on the platform of the Assembly
Room. as it was impossible for the girls
to carry such massive bunches of ms-
es, lilies, carnations and other flowers.

The dancing began at once and con-
tinued till nearly 1 o'clock. when one
by one, the guests departed.

The spacious residence at Hillside
was crowded to overflowing. over
five hundred invitations were Issued to
the comencement. and It was evident
there were but few regrets.

The grounds were beautifully Ilium
Inated by electric lights. and not with-
standing the heavy downpour of rain.
the scene was a merry one.
