Sunday Evening
The baccalaureate service for
the 1901 graduating class was
held Sunday night at 8:00 in the
high school auditorium with Rev.
Ernst R. Pflug, pastor of Trinity
Lutheran Church, delivering the
address. H. text was "And the
Lord was with them.''
In his sermon Joseph of the Old
Testament was held up to the '01
graduating class as a fine model
to follow for life. Rev. Pflug
challenged the baccalaureate au-
dience to dare to dream as Joseph,
to be fearless of the dungeon of
life in remaining faithful to (lod-
plcasing dreams, and thereafter
expect to wear the diadem or
crown of success. "Above all,''
he concluded, "as you follow this
model, never forget the only one
who can give power to fulfill
dreams in a Ciod-pleasing way
Jesus Christ. For C»od, too, had
a dream in all eternity to redeem
mankind from sin. Jesus Christ
entered the dungeon of suffering
and death to fulfill that dream,
and yet in spite of death* the
risen Lord today wears the dia-
dem of victory for us. His dream,
his dungeon, and his diadem, bring
forgiveness for our failings and
tin* power to fulfill our dreams,
face our dungeons, and wear dia-
dems in a God-pleasing way."
Miss Alice Reynold . organist,
played the processional and re-
cessional.
Cshers were Dennis Tucker and
Hetty Buerger, members of the
junior class.

cation anil Linda Williams and
