MONDAY, JUNE 21, 1909. THE WILKES -BARRE RECORD. MONDAY, JUNE 21, 1909, Pittston Department South Main St. Main Floor WILL DEVANEY, Manager. New Phone 5562.

Old Phone 433. JOHNS COMMENCEMENT ELABORATE SERVICES, FINE SERMON, BEAUTIFUL DECORATIONS AND FINE MUSIC. The 45th annual commenement exercises St. John's High School took place yesterday morning with solemn high mass at o'clock in St. John's R.

C. Church. The large edifice was filled with relatives and friends of the thirty-seven graduates, who gathered long before the appointed time. The class of 1909 never graduated under more favorable auspices or with brighter prospects. The young ladies were attired in white gowns and wore white mortar caps and carried white prayer books, and the young men were attired in black.

The solemn high mass began at 8 o'clock. The decorations were simple, but effective. Streamers gold and purple were draped front the highest point of the celling over the main altar and around the gallery to the choir. The altars were decked with cut flowers and about the sanctuary were potted plants and ferns: The graduates, led by William Watson Devaney, marched from St. John's Convent and proceeded up the center aisle while St.

John's orchestra played a processional march. The young men were preceded by pages, and the young laides by little maids who were attired in white and wore white wreaths and carried white rosos. The scene was an exceptionally pretty one, as the graduates moved slowly up the aisle and took their places in a double row in front of the sanctuary. The thirty-seven graduates are a8 follows: Classical Course -Hugh Martin McGuire, Joseph Gibbons McElhenny, William Joseph Nolan, Margaret Mary Buckley, Mary Cecelia Corcoran. Beatrice Zita aurden, Anna Alacoque Devaney, Agnes Mary Donnelly, Nora De Sales Farrell, Anna De Chantal Gerrity, Anna Regina Hines, Mary Cecilia Kearns, Anna Nicholas Keenan.

The graduates sang the Veni Creator, which was followed by the, baccalureate delivered by Rev. Father Valensermon tine, a member of the Passionist Order of Scranton. It was forceful address.

His subject was "Religious and his text, "Suffer the children to come to me and forbid them not, for such 18 the kingdo mot heaven." -Mark 10:14. The reverend father said in part: make my apoligies to you, young men and women of the graduating class. The use of this text may lead to think that I regard you as chilyou dren. You have, indeed, outgrown child's estate, but you are still children of God and mother church and the finished of the system of Christian education, which is the golden fruit divine pronouncement: "Suffer the children to come to me and forbid them mother church, the spouse of "Holy Christ, says the same by her solicitude for the religious education of the little Men and women make all the sacrifices of the religious life in order to consecrate themselves to that sacred work.

Owing to an Unavoidable Delay in completing our new offices at 22 North Main street, we will not take possession of them until Monday, June 21. On and after that date we will welcome you in the finest Optical offices in this section of the State. Fred T. Smith OPTOMETRIST 18 S. MAIN ST.

PITTSTON the sublimest act in the life of St. John the Baptist that he denied himself the privilege of remaining in the company of Jesus (and all that this implies) in order to prepare the way for him. "Strange that this solicitude should be misunderstood and misconstrued by those outside her pale and not appreciated very often by her own children. occasion is an object lesson, which the dullest cannot fail to understand and which the malicious even cannot controvert. 'First What Christ and the church have done for the uplifting of the child.

The change wrought by the merciful sentence of the Savior. The little children of the pagan world were looked upon with coldness bordering on aversion. Many parents regarding them as a burden destroyed them in the very blossom of life and the State fully endorsed their unnatural barbarity. (Modern heathens go farther and destroy them in the "germ" of life.) The sentence of Christ has made them the most interesting portion of society. "Second- The church still actuated by the same material interest which makes her enforce religious education.

We do not question the social advantages of mere intellectual training. As well might we question the advantages of civilized nations over savage hordes. There is no comparison. As well might we compare the unshapen block of stone with the finished statue. Education has substituted the majestic ocean steamer for the primitive canoe; the automobile for the ox cart; and the lightning express for the cumbrous caravan.

Now the 'airship' is likely to surpass them all. "We admit that all material progress can be fostered and achieved by purely intellectual training called education. Hence a system of education that compasses such grand results is laudable. The church aids and approves all scientific pursuits. A mere scientific education, however full and extensive, can never satisfy the loftier requirements nor the aspirations of an immortal soul.

"Many who are loudest in praise of education confine it to its influence on the wants and comforts of the body; the church extends it to the interests of an imperishable soul; they it to the fleeting existence of time, we connect it with eternity. Which is the more perfect system: the mere secular one of modern materialism, or the moral and religious, as well as scientific one of the Catholic Church? "Third--Education means the development of man's entire being, hence moral instruction must go hand in hand with scientific, if education is to be worthy of the name. The heart must be developed together with the head, or a moral monstrosity will be theresult. The child's best interests even for time and certainly for eternity demand religious education. "Fourth--The State as well the Individual needs religious education.

Education in the popular acceptation has not lessened the number in our jails and penitentiaries and reforma- tories. Statistics prove that the ity of their inmates can read and write (graduates in penitentiary). There is no rascal to compare villainy with the educated rascal. The highly educated scoundrel knows how to escape the penitentiary. Education has actual-, ly lengthened the list of crimes.

"The welfare of society depends on law and order. These presuppose moralMorality is based on religion. LisWashington, the Father of our Country: 'Let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion, because morality and religion are the props of society and the pillars of the Father Valentine admonished the graduates to take the cross as their standard, because It would lead them to everlasting victory and success. The officers of the mass were Rev. B.

H. O'Boyle, celebrant; Rev. Father Valentine, deacon, and Rev. J. Golden, sub-deacon.

Rev. J. P. O'Malley 0c- cupied a seat in the sanctuary, The male choir under the direction of M. E.

Golden sang the mass and at the offertory of the mass the graduates sang Rosewig's Ave Maria. Rev. Father Valentine read the names of the young ladies and young men who have completed the courses of studies prescribed by St. John's High School and were entitled to a diploma. They approached the altar by twos and received their diplomas from the pastor, Rev.

J. P. O'Malley, During the communion and the conferring of the diplomas orchestra played Traumerei and Angel's Berenade. The graduates then sang Peter's Magnifcat. The soloists were Leo MacDonald, Anna Gerrity, Florence Cawley and Rose Carroll.

At the convent later breakfast was served. Rev. S. ('Boyle occupied the chair of honor. The teachers and sisters waited on table.

The dining room was decorated with class colors and class numerals were in evidence. The senior and commercial rooms were decorated with class pennants and colors. The convent halls were also decorated for the occasion with the class colors. Rev. 8.

O'Boyle addressed the gradin a few words and extended uates his congratulations. Short talks were riven by the following members of the class: Ambrose Marion, president class 1909; Joseph McElhenny, Michael Kelley; also P. W. Gallagher of the Catholic Light, Scranton, and E. J.

Jennings having been escorted from his home on William street meanwhile, and In a speech in which he expressed the best wishes of the men, presented Mr. Jennings on their behalf with a handsome diamond ring. The company then joined in singing "For he is a jolly good fellow," which was a fitting climax to the presentation speech. Mr. Jennings by this time had recovered himself and in responding made a neat address, during which he spoke in part as follows: makes a man feel that doing his duty to the best of his ability, that there is something in life accomplished through work other than the remuneration received from the corporation for which he works.

The event and the present are only reminders, but the friendship and good fellowship will last, I hope, forever. I will always keep and cherish this for the men who live and work in the gift N. P. D. Our relationship covers a period of five years and when I look back to the commencement of that period, review work accomplished and the men who the accomplished it, I feel benefited for hav.

ing been with you and know that some good has or will be derived from our relation one to the other. In accepting this I extend to you in return my best gift wishes and with it all that man could wish, that your future may be possibly filled with the same friendship and good fellowship under my successor as during our five years just ended."
