The Baccalaureate sermon was delivered Sunday night at the Congregational Church, by Rev. S. J. Lambright, who ably presented the value of proper ambitions in youth. There was a large attendance.

 

Monday was Class Day.  A picnic was held at Hatfield and in the evening the Class Day Program was given at the high school assembly room.

 

Tuesday evening the Commencement Exercises were held at the Opera House, the following being the program:

There was a very large audience present at the opera house and the entire program was greatly enjoyed by all.  President Schofield’s address was a masterly one and well adapted to the occasion.

 

Miss Ferne Rowe and Miss Dorothy Lynch in their addresses were a credit to the Class of 1929 and to Neillsville High School.
