Festivities 0i1908” No Excep-
tion to the Usual Delightful
Commencement Features .—
Art Reception and Exhibition
of Studio Work
Class Day at Miss Baird‘s Institute
is always one of the most delightful
features of the Commenqment Week.
and the class festivities of 1908 were
no exception.
‘At 4 o'clock the pupils assembled ill
the school hall. where the procession
formed. Tile Juniors. bearing daisy
chains. led the line. and as they drew
near the platform specially erected for
the exercises, they parted. that the
Seniors might pass to their places on
the stage, where they were. received
by the principal, while the younger
members of the school. the. alumnae.
and the faculty. filed into the seats
prepared, seating themselves among
the guests on the lawn. Nothing could
be more attractive than the scene be.-
fore them. Above the platform was
the class motto. "‘ilu bieufait n'est
.ltlmals pcrdu," ill a field of blue. the
school color. Above was the large
sllielti of ’08, nlld draperies of the
class color. green, intermingled with
flowers and foliage. Yet the most
striking decoration was the. bright
faces and attractive gowns of the grad-
uating class.
Tile address of welcome was deliv-
orcd by Miss Agnes limlicy. and was
sweet ill sentiment and cordial ill its
words of greeting. Miss Eilriquctu
Karbcr followed Willi the. Class Chron-
iclcs. «beginning with a reference to
her own coming as a little girl from
far away l‘orto Rico. where this pres-
ent consummation of school life seein-
ed so distant s to be almost impos-
sible of realization. She ~ recorded
that the class had not been distinguish
cd enough to win‘fame. nor had any
unusual events occurred specially iii-
teresting; ill short. she drew the con-
clusion "Like,u nation, ‘Ilappy is the
class that has no history.‘ "
Miss Myrtle Tecie then read a bean-
tiful class poem on 05's chosen flower.
the white rose. in which true poetical
feeling was combined with sentiments
of tender affection.
All listenedwith an added touch of
interest as Miss Marguerite Kellogg
lose to pronounce, the class prophecy.
always one of the papers on the pro-
gram which is most enjoyed; and they
Were not disappointed. M‘iss Kellogg’
had secured from one of the. oak
groves sacred to an ancient priestess
‘ information so marvelous regarding
the future of her class males that all
held their breath as she unfolded their
brilliant destiny one by one. ‘Yet her
glowing predictions did not prevent
her making many a quiet reference to
peculiarities, nuiulicrisms and habits
which the intimacy of the Senior year
had laid open to good-natured. humor-
ous criticism. .
When the applause which followed
this paper had died away, Miss tier-
trude Meyers delivered the Senior
charge to the Juniors. This was full of
witty references to past events. and
merry hits at mistakes and foibles, but
through all ran all undercurrent of
sweet seriousness and loving regard.
When Miss Meyers finished all felt
that the Juniors might that it rather
difficult to answer the charge ado
quately; but the Junior response,
which was by Miss iluth Wilnlurth. not
only ably defended the honor of the
younger class. but also. under CUV'UT'
of reVerent homage. made. some much-
ing references to the Seniors that
brought laughing blushes to their fair
faces. The response. too. shouted be-
neath the feeling surface how strong
a bond of affection between Senior
and Junior is (TOVtiTOlled in the famii~
lam intercourse of a home. school.
The reading of the class averages
and ranks for the year is of great in-
terest to the members of the school;
and those for this year reflected great
credit on pupils and instructors. not
only in the studies in. the regular
course, but also in the departments of
uni era languages. music and art.
T one being finished. all listened
with breathless attention to the an-
nounceme“ t of the honors and the
prizes. . e salutatory was awarded
to Miss Gertrude Vivian Meyers. of
Astoria, N. Y.; the, valedictory to Miss
Myrtle Underwood'l‘oele. of Brooklyn.
Attendance prides were secured by
.the Misses Edna Brenneman, of East
Orange, N. J.; Olive Jacques, of New
York citfi’utd Constance Nowell. of
l'rovldenca,j!{. I. The neatness prize
was woh hymns Hasel Helmer. of
Mechanicsvlllo. Iowa. The sunshine
prize. which is regarded as the most
desirable in the gift of the school. was
awarded to Miss Clara Marie Jaeger,
of Montclair. N.-.l'.. and the hearty ap-
plause showed that-all the school con.
curred in the selection of 'the "suns
shine girl? The price bearer was Miss
Stephens Pra'ger. of Roswell. New
Mexico. v ’
Thea (mine the presentations. at-
way's an amusing. feature of the day.
The gifts were well chosen to fit the
' different individuals and the merry
presentation rhymes were full of sly
hits which caused much laughter.
Wheanss Jsem‘had finitthsd: Miss
Cushin retaliated for the other mem-
bers. o the class; and then Ina few
seated Miss Baird with a beautifu
statuette of Napoleon at St. ileisua,
the creamy whiteness of the lifelike
figure being greatly enhanced by the
ebony base. Miss Baird responded to
this token of affectionate regard in a
most earnest and touching impromptu
speech of appreciation.
A fine white birch tree stand ready
for planting. and soon It was skilfully
consigned to the keeping of Mother
Earth, after which Miss Dorothy iioogs
delivered an effective “Tree Qratiou."
tracing a clear analogy between'the
life of the tree and that of the class.
Salutations to class trees and fillet!
of former years then took place. and
as from various portions of the lawn
class calls were heard, it was evident
that the alumnae had lost none of
their old—time lung power, or their
class spirit.
The evening was given up to all art
reception and an exhibition of tin-
work of the studio pupils, which re-
liects great credit upon the progress
made. during tile your. Panel pictures,
cast work, and studies from still life
made a pleasing varicty._
Among the, pictures specially worthy
of commendation Wore several studies
of a wood-interior at different times of
the day by the Misses Korbcr. Jacgcr.
Tools and Ross. Tile aspect of tilt-
turc under different lights was very iii-
.-
terestiilgi’rg. .
A picttft‘c which attracted much at-
tention was a moonlight marine
sketch by Miss Jeanne lioss. A panel
of red roses by Miss Marion Morton
showed lunch artistic finish. and some
plates of architectural designs by Miss
Frank Cushing showed great accuracy
of execution.
After examining lilo work of the
young amateurs, the. guests passed to
the. school llnil. where they were on-
tertuincd ily a delightful program.
First all ilistrulllentnl duet i‘ronl
Menticissolln's "Midsummer Night‘s
Dream" was finely rendered by the
Misses chle and Cushlng. This was
followed by a charming essay. "A' (,‘oi'.
per in a Studio." read ill a clear. ex
pressive voice by Miss Clara Marie
Jar-ger. She pictured so vividly a
studio interior that one could see. tin-
paintings and pieces of sculpture
with photographic ciearncss. Having
interested her audience with her des-
cripiitm of the room Itself. she let
them listen with her as various artists
of ancient and modern times related
interesting incidents of their careers.
'l‘hoi‘air young essayist showed no in
considerable acquaintance with the
works of the great painters. and her
treatment of each individual personal-
ity was nlost attractive. Miss .lueger
was heartily applauded by her apprec-
iative audience.
Next on the program was a number
of vocal selections by Mrs. Liiiinn
Sherwood Nowkirk. who sang llohin‘s
“Still win die Nucht," Grleg‘s “.‘lcll
lie-be dioll." b‘iudcn‘s “The Temple
Bells." nild King's "israfei." ably ac
coiupanlcd by Miss Vera Alilerton.
Mrs. Newklrk was in excellent voice.
her regularly sustained notes and rich.
full tones delighted llcr listeners and
the crises in the crescendo Were sit-iii
ingly marked.
The prominent feature of the even
ing's program was an Art Talk by Mr.
Albert Scott. Cox. illustrator aml car
icaturist. The artist dWeit at length
on the power of really ill art. the lil-
fiuence of values. light amt shadow
circular and triangular lll0\'i'lllt?liTS and
points of rest. ills talk was an ill-
spiration, especially. to the art pupils,
and won for iiiiil prolonged applause.
As illosf of Mr. Cox's paintings who
on exhibition ill Chicago, the specl
locus of his work shown were mainly
from his caricatures and cartoons. but
these afforded much interest and
inillscnicnt.
Tile address this evening is to he

RAILROAD SWEARS
'OUT AN lNlUNCllOb
To Stop an Attachment Against
Properly oi the Corporation
In Wallingiord
HARTFORD. Juno 2.~——An injunction
was sworn out by the New York. New
Haven and Hartford Railroad yester-
day. before Judge Coats of the com-
mon pleas court. to stop all attach-
ment against property of the corpora-
tion in Wallingford, resulting from a
decision given by a Justice of the
peace there adverse to the company.
It is claimed that the cmnpuny has
taken this unusual step for two rea-
sons: First, to ascertain whether local
Justices of the peace are cognisant
.of the law that requires a defendant
in a stilt must be legally notified of
the trial of the case; and second. whe-
ther a justice of the peace can refu e
to entertain an appeal from the deci -
ion given by him. Both these points
are brought forward in the injunction
case.
The papers in the case summon
Michael H. Quirks. residence unknown,
and Michael T. Downs. of Waillugford.
to appear in the Superior court in New
Haven on the First Tuesday in Sep-
tember. The complaint sets forth that
Dowues. acting as attorney for Quirks.
brought suit in the borough court in
Wailingford basins the New Haven
road to recover damages alleged to
have been indicted by failure to deliv-
er'promptly a piece of because at the
point to which it was supposedly con-
signed. and which was delivered else-
where when proper' instructions for its
delivery were given. The company.
claims that through the coart process
followed and failure to give legal no-
tice. it bad no opportunity to be heard
in vindication of its rights. and the
action of the court in preventing an
