Vevay High School Graduation – 1899

Vevay High School [Switzerland County, Indiana] graduation report appeared in:
Vevay Reveille – 18 May 1899 – Page 4, Column 4

The Class of ’99.

The Commencement Exercises of the Vevay High School at the Opera last Friday evening was pronounced by those who attended, to have been one of the most successful ones held for several years. The class, consisting of seven girls and nine boys, was an unusually intelligent one as the careful thought shown in the preparation of their orations evinced, and the easy confident manner with which each and every graduate delivered their orations showed a skill in oratory above the average.

The stage was tastily decorated with a huge American flag as a background and a profusion of potted plants, draperies, etc., and the class motto, “Virtute et Labore,” prominently displayed in the foreground. Excellent music was furnished by Prof. Genter’s orchestra and the audience was large and attentive.

It is a self evident fact that the instructors, Professors A. L. Trafelet and Ernest M. Danglade and Misses Julia LeClerc Knox and Hannah Waldenmaier have every reason to be proud of the class of 1899.

The members of the class and the subjects are as follows:

Carrie Brown, Salutatory—“Our Nation’s Emblem.”
Ernest Griffith, “Success.”
Grace Schroeder, “Gather the rosebuds while you may.”
Howard Cole, “Character.”
Zella E. Jain, “Embarking.”
Harry B. Shaw, “Electricity.”
Ivan Dean Saberton, “Indifferentism.”
Jennie Wren Anderson, “Unfinished Still.”
Walter P. Baird, “The American Newspaper.”
