Academy Commencement Forty-one Young People Receive Well-earned Diplomas and Graduate
On
Tuesday evening last at the Opera House the annual commencement
exercises of the Iowa City Academy were held. This year the
graduates number forty-one and are for the most part residents of this
county. Since
the Iowa City Academy has been conducted by Prof. W. A. Willis it has
grown in popular favor and in membership. Today it ranks high as
a preparatory school, its graduates being admitted to the University
without examination. As a school where the fundamental principles of
education are taught none ranks higher than does this school. A
great audience was preent to witness the young people graduate and
every seat in the Opera House was taken. The stage was handsomely
decorated, one feature being the class motto of "Launched but not
anchored" which in great letters extended clear across the stage. The
speakres all delivered excellent orations and selecltions which proved
that the course of study received at the Academy was of a high quality.
Each and every one acquitted themselves with credit. Following is
