BACCALAUREATE SERMON
Large Congregation Sunday Night
at Presbyterian Church
The Presbyterian church was taxed
Sunday night by the congregation
that had gathered to hear W. II. Ful
ler deliver the baccalaureate sermon.
Many friends hud come with the re-
latives, and loving hand3 had added I
decorations of fern and white lillies.
In addressing the graduates who
occupied the first seats, Mr. Fuller
prefaced his sermon by venturing the
assertion that each boy and each girl
of that class, at one time in their
lives, had a hero, and this hero the
parent who, in after years, failed to
meet the requirements of such hero,
unfortunate an unpleasant as ,was
the admission, because he know not
all. He called upon the class to accept
as its hero, the carpenter boy of
Bethlehem.
In portraying the great virtues of
the Christ, the speaker sought to im-
press the class with the comparison of
Christ’s love of good and struggle
against adversity to the struggle’s
of life today, and the ne^er-ceasing
confidence of the Messiah. Taking, in
fact, the life of Chrifct as the correct
example, Mr. Fuller delivered to the
class, a strong sermon, one that met
with the willing ears of everyone pre-
sent. It was well told, and well
handled throughout.
:o:
Commencement, week thus begun
was continued by the pupils of the
senior class presenting to a large
audience at the Community club au-
ditorium a three-act farce comedy en-
titled: “All a Mistake.” The play
was cleverly handled and provoked
considerable applause, Monday night.

Tuesday the alumin met at the
school house building where a most
delightful evening was enjoyed. As
this is bein^. printed, all is in readi-
ness for the presentation of “The En-
chanted Wood” an operetta, and the
seventh grade graduation. Tonight,
(Thursday) commencement exercises,
with Dr. J. L. Henderson to deliver
the address.

Reception
On Friday evening, the juniors of
the LaGmnge High School compli-
mented the seniors with a reception at
the Handel hall. The decorations
were carried out in the senior class
colors, (fifteen and white; it was readily
conceded that the Hall never looked
more attractive. A “state abbrevia-
tions” contest, and a “Nut” contest
were the chief pastime of the even-
ing. A race, which caused much mer-
riment, then took place. The group
was divided into two sides, and it was
the object of each side to eat a huge
red stick of candy first. Delicious re-
freshments of ice cream and cake
were served! To be truthful, it was
just the cream without the cake, for,
it seems to be the custom that when
the juniors entertain the seniors, the
fish and sophs try to play some
prank, and this time they stole the
cake. Those present were:
Misses Norma Bcckmqnn, Lorena
Willenberg, Lucille Fritsch, Marie
Nefcrsta, Emma Roitsch,. Esther Boll-
meyer, Elizabeth Stansbury, Edna
Legler, Hedwig Frai\ke, Vipla Shott,

Lawn Party*-.
Misses Ann and Olga Nasrsta were
hostesses Saturday evening at a lawn
party at their home, honoring the
senior class of the LaGrange high
school, from eight-thirty to #eleven-
thirty. The lawn had been trans-
formed into a veritable Japanese gar-
den, with its Japanese lanterns hui^g
over lights, and at one end of the
garden, a huge Japanese parasol over
a settee added to the setting. In the
living room and dining room, which
were thrown into one, tall wicker
baskets held the class flower, cape
jasmine, while Japanese parasols
shaded the electroliers, giving the
shadowy effect. Seven tables of
players enjoyed the game of Bunco,
and a flower contest Refreshments
of cream and cake were carried out in
the class colors, green and white, and
as plate favors, kodak pictures of the
high school .faculty in little green
folders, bearing the “L. H. S. 1922”
in Japanese lettering* in white were
given. The guests enjoying this hos-
pitality were:
Misses Lucille Fritsch, Emma

Luther League Lawn Social
The LaGrange Luther League en-
tertained the graduating class of
1922 on the church lawn, Thursday
evening, May the eleventh, from
eight until eleven-thirty o’clock.
The guests were received by the re-
ception committee at the gate which
was very artistically decorated in
moss and grape vines and topped with
bows of green and whitey the class
colors of the graduates. From here
they were escorted to the lawn which
had a beautiful overhead decoration
of hanging moss and grape vines be-
tween lights of various shades and
bows of green and white tarlatan.
The diversion for the eveniing was
four contests. The first was given
solely to the graduates and was
known as “The Senior Studio.” "Miss
Norma Beckmann was the winner
here and received a box of candy
wrapped and tied in the class colors.
After this everyone present entered
in an “ice” contest. Wilburn.Loessin
’was most successful in this and was
also awarded a box of candy. Next the
two successful contestants were ask-
ed to choose sides for the “green and
white hoop contest” a feat not so
easily performed. Miss Beckmann’s
side won and passed the box of candy
awarded them to all present. After
this rather strenuous contest every-
one was seated at the tables for a
rest. This was followed by a “pea-
nut race” in which Wilbur Sengel-
mann was most succeessful and re-
ceived a box of stationary. After
this all were seated at the tables and
enjoyed a delicious course of white
cake and green and white ice cream.
The guests included the graduat-
ing class, the faculty of the LaGrange
Public school, and the members of
the Luther League.

Two Children Drowned at Winchester
District Court Cases
.Lee Smith was exhibiting a stalk
of corn Monday that came from the
Primm section where a heavy hail
stoyn had vented its wrath upon the
corn fields. The stalk evidenced the
statement mlde by "Mr. Smith,' that
the hail was terrific, as it was almost
beaten to pulp. The damage done by
the storm Saturday was such as to
create loss of interest is replan Jr, j.
The following cases were heard and
concluded this week, up to the hour
of going to press: •
State vs. Bill Davis, alias Johnnie
Jones, burglary; trial by jury, verdict
of guilty, arid given two years in the
penitentiary.
State vs. Burnet Scallion, burglary,
two cases; trial by jury, and verdict
of guilty in each case; sentenced* to
six years in one and five years in the
other case.
Two children, a son and daughter
pf Mr. and Mrs. Mat Noack were
drowned in the Colorado river Wed-
nesday and while the entire night was
spent in dragging the river, the bod-
ies were not recovered. It is feared
tjiat the bodies were washed to some
point far below and will not be re-
covered until the high waters recede.
The accident occurred when three of
the Noack children were looking for
turffey eggs in# a pasture. They had
ventured hear the river and while
there, the oldest boy, a lad of 7,
•tumbled in the grass and fell into the
water. The 18-year-old sister jump-
ed in to save him and both were
drowned. Some time later, the third
child, a boy of five years, was found
on the bank crying by a party who
had gone to investigate the condition
of the river. This makes four children
that Mr. and Mrs. Noack have lost in
a short ^ime, having lost one son in
the recent dypthqri* epidemic and
another who was accidntally shot
while playing with a cousin of his
own age.—Daily Press Report.
