The commencement exercises of the
seventh graduating class of the West Phlla
dclphla IllRh School for Boys, were held
this afternoon In the auditorium of the
school, at 48th nnd Walnut Btreels, and were
different In at leant one respect from the
average commencement
Every ono of the speakers, students of
tho school, discoursed about some subject
near at hand, or spolto about something
connected In somo way with tho school.
Thero were no grandiloquent speeches
nbout Mochlavelll, or peace, or tho aero
plane In war, or the father of modern
science. The speakers nil had as their
subjects some homely matter near at hand,
Thoy talked about tho methods of In
struction at tho school, perhaps, or about
student self-government, or about the ath
letlo side of life at West Philadelphia High.
Tho Idea had been planned by Professor
Phillips, the member of the faculty In
charge of the commencement, In an effort
to lend .novelty and to the end that there
might be a special Interest for every one In
attendance at the exercises.
The student speakers were Wltllam J,
Ballon. Barry B. Thornton, Donald
Donaghey, John E. Allen, Byron T, Hacker
and the salutatorlan nnd valedictorian. The
salutatory, written by John O. Clark, was
delivered by Purnell Darrell, Jr., and the
valedictory, written by Charles Borguldo,
was delivered by Roger L. Hubbert, who
Is the president of tho class.
Tho school orchestra, under the leader
ship of H. P. Holtmlestcr, and the glee club,
under tho direction of Wlllard S. Campbell,
furnished tho music. Robert Armbruster
was the accompanist.
Diplomas wero presented by Charles C.
Hey!, president of the school. There were 61
members of the graduating class.
Tho officers of the class are: Roger I.
Hubbert, president: Byron T. Hacker, vice
president; Allan M. Rife, secretary, nnd

One hundred and sixty-six students were
graduated this morning from the Philadel
phia High Schftol for Olrls at commence
ment exercises held Id tho Academy of
Muslo.
Tho girls, nil dressed In white, made n
beautiful' spectacle as they sat massed on
the big stags of tho Academy. Diplomas
wero presented by Miss Katherlne K.
Puncheon, principal of tho school.
After a Bhort musical program the grad
uates marched on to tho stage and took
their places. The opening, prayer was of
fered by tho Rev. Dr. Robert Kills Thomp
son, president of the Central High School.
The 46th Psalm was recited by tho members-
of the class, following which the salu
tatory, written by Miss Helen M, Angeluccl,
was delivered by Miss Helen J. Simon.
Choruses, 'The Spring Morning" and "Tho
Swan," wero participated In by tho entire
class.
Henry R. Edmunds, president of tho
Board of Education, presented tho medals
and prizes to the graduates. The valedic
tory, written hy Miss Helen C. Bailey, was
delivered by Miss Veronica M. Walrnth.
Prosldent Edmunds addressed tho grad
uates briefly. Ho also niipcaled to the
parents to co-operate with tho board In
Its efforts to educate their children, nnd
not to bo led Into criticism by uninformed
nnd outsldo Influences. "Parents," he said,
"should send their children smiling to
school. Don't nag them, Don't nng us:
let tho newspapers do that, We are used
to It. Come and see your children and
find out from tho teacher how they are
cottlng along, When I was a boy it meant
trouble' for me when my father visited tho
school. It's different now. Wo want to
see the parents manifest an Interest In
their children's progress and what the 5000
noble women In our army of teachers are
doing for them.' Wo do moro than Instruct
.thorn. We look after their teeth, their
eyes, their health. I went Into a school
room the other day and saw tho llttlo
girls lenrnlng to wash and iron.
"Wo wore Informed recently that 163
schools woro In bad condition. The ofTletal
report of tho Department of Health shows
thero wero exactly 14, and this number
has been reduced by repairs since. It Is
only one-half of last year's total. The
Civic Club tolls us wo should rovlse our
music course, taking the credit for Its In
troduction to themsolvcs. Two years be
fore 1897, when tho Clvlo Club suggestion
was received, the board decided to Includo
muslo In the public school curriculum."
Two Dortd medals for hlgn percentage In
the genernl course woro won by Miss Ver
onica St. Wnlrath, who received the gold
medal, and Miss Lillian Crawford, who
won the silver medal. Tho medal for pro
ficiency In French, awarded by tho Al
liance Francalse, was won by Miss Serena
E. Foley. Otlss Blanche L. Erwood and
Miss Alma M. Hellwcgs won medals given

Sarcastic criticism of the administration
of the University of Pennsylvania Dental
School was voiced today by Dr. J. Arthur
Standen, president of the Dental Alupinl
Society of the University.
Doctor Standen was nddresslng the 34th
annual meeting of the dental alumni In the
Thomns W, Evans Dental Inetltute, 40th
and Spruce streets. He prefaced his criti
cism by expressing regret that In recent
State Board tests the average failures of
all schools In 44 States during the last
five years totale'd 16 per cent, The Univer
sity of Pennsylvania showed the highest
average of failure, 18 per cent, the worst
In Its existence. In 1915, Doctor Standen
snld, this percentage of failures had In
creased to 22 per cent.
"Can this," he queried, "be the result of
a policy of administration whereby a man
Is accepted aa a demonstrator In this de
partment If during the first year ho will
servo without pay; with the same salary
the second year unless he receives an in
spiration to kick strenuously he gets 100,
or If he kicks superstrenuously he gets 1200,
or gets fired?
"Or Is this a result of a policy of ad
ministration which permits n man to re
main a demonstrator In this department
for 15 years at the same salary during
that period, while members of the fnculty
receive nn Increase of 20 per cent, whon
tho Evans consolidated plan Is effected?
"Or Is this a result of a policy of ad
ministration whereby a chair carrying an
assistant professorship, remains vnoant dur
ing the entire scholastic term with the
burden of technical and practical work
resting upon the demonstrator?"
A report regarding their survey of condi
tions In the Dental School will be submitted
during the session by Dr. C. W. Rausen
berger, Dr. Luther M. Weaver, and Dr.
J. Q, Lane, representatives to the Board
of the General Alumni Socloty. The merger
of the Medlco-Chlrurglcal nnd University
Rent an EDEN
of Pennsylvania Dental Departments will
also be discussed latef In the session,
Beginning at 2 o'clock this afternoon the
delegates are noing emcriniiic.. v "
dal series of clinics at the Evans iMtUutft.
The annual dinner 6f the Dental Alumni
will be held tonight. The clinics Include
expositions of the latest developments In
dicntat science and In methods of ppJ'
tlon. Every part of the United States is
tepresenled In the several hundrr-d delegates
attending the soclety'tf meeting.

WirehurHome feajfue
is more than an advertising or sales slogan
it is an association ot one hundred Jtuectrical
Wiring Contractors formed for the ouroose of
equipping "Every-Philadelphia-Man's" home for Electricity.
The new residence rates for Electricity make electric light actually cost less in dollars and
cents than any other artificial illuminant; therefore, the use of Electricity in the home should
be as universal in the older dwellings as it is in the new. The Wire-Your-Home League
proposes to completely equip already-built houses with standard wiring and fixtures at a cost
considerably lower than has been charged in the past.
A flat rate wiring cost has been agreed upon which enables anyone to figure for himself the
exact cost of wiring his home without asking for estimates.
A very attractive list of fixtures offering a wide variety of selection has been contracted for. This order in bulk
enables the fixture manufacturers to reduce the unit costs as much as fifteen per cent to those who eauip their
homc3 for electric service under this new plan.
All in all, this is the big opportunity that Philadelphia has been waiting for. The owner of his own dwelling
SLSf rV id dle,h"Ea "J tf1?ant!,.ar?, satisfied because they have not the conveniences that
Electricity affordsthe tenant who likes the "old home" and who needs only Electricity to be perfectly
contented this is their chancel v 3
v.
What it means to you
Lower cost of wiring and fixtures nnd easy terms of payment
extended to Include cost of fixtures elimination of time and
trouble entailed by the old method of having to obtain wiring
estimates the assurance that wiring and fixtures are absolutely
first-class In every respect the new low rates for Electricity all
of these things mean a distinct advantage to anyone who wires
his home under this new plan.
Deferred-Payment Plan
The Philadelphia Electric Company will pay the contractor's bill
