METZ TALKS TO GRADUATES Medals Presented to Students Who Eava Been Prominent in School Activities. The criticism of Commercial High School as a "Clerk Factory" was Ter clearly demonstrated to be a mistake in a talk given by Gilbert J.

Raynor, a member of the faculty of Commercial High School, to the 118 boys who graduated from that school last night Ths exercises were held In the auditorium of the school, at Albany avenue and Dean street, which was crowded with the parents and friends of the boys who have Just finished what Dr. William Falrley, the principal of Commercial High, calls "one of the stiff est high school coursel In the world." The subject of Mr. Raynor's talk was "The Commercial Graduate," and he dem-' onstrated that Commercial High is not a factory for turning out stenographers, typewriters and bookkeepers, but prospective business men. The proof of the success of education Is the kind of men, it produced, said Mr. Raynor, and.

In order to find out Just what kind of men Commercial High School has produced, he has, during the past month, written to hundreds of the graduates of the school, and, from the replies received, he gave the following statistics: Of the graduates of 1911 and 1912 80 per cent, took positions as stenographers; 65 per cent, are still stenographers; 90 per cent are doing clerical work; none Is in business tor himself, and the average Income Is $748 annually. Of the graduates from 1906 to 1910, 80 per cent, started as stenographers; 5 per cent, are now stenographers; 11 per cent, are in business for themselves, and the average income Is $1,190. The graduates from 1901 to 1905 have an average income of 20 per cent are in business for themselves, and not one Is now a stenographer, although 79 per cent of the boys started out that way. Of the graduates before 1900 75 per cent started as stenographers, but not one is now doing that work; 50 per cent are In business for themsjlv and tno nverage Income Is $3,500. "That," said Mr.

Raynor, "Is the answer as to whether this school makes good, or not These boys are commercially valuable. Each one of them can do what not every graduate of Talai and Harvard can do earn his own living. Each is equipped to do his share of life's work, and do it well." Mr. Raynor Is the member of the faculty whoBe business it is to get positions for the hoys, and boys for the positions. During the past week he has had sixty-six requests foe boys from business houses In this city, and sixty of the requests are from firms who already have Commercial High School graduates and want more.

The address to the graduates was made) by Congressman Herman A. Mets, who gave the boys much sensible, practical advice from the standpoint of a successful business man. He advised them to take jobs with small, growing firms, rather than a job which paid better, but gave no chance of advancement. He told them to learn everything possible about the business, and always be ready to do more work than was required of them. Mr.

Metz Bald that he is much interested in Commercial High School, because he was a member of the School Board when the Bchool was organized, first as a part of the Boys High School, and afterward as an independent school. The Congressman said that he himself had had but one year's training in a high school, as he had to take a job when he was 14 years old, and it paid him just $3 a week, but he never lost an oportunity to learn, and he advised the boys to do the same thing. Gold medals were presented by the school to the debating team which won three times in four years, securing The Eagle trophy permanently for Commercial High School. The team was composed of Manheim Rosensweig, Arthur Tuttle and Louis Samalman. Silver medals and fobs were given by the Ledger, which is the school paper, to Hyman Lublnsky, editor-in-chief of the Ledger; Frederick C.

Gonseth, business manager of the paper, and Charles H. Muller, society editor of the Ledger. Each of theBe boys received also a medal from the General Organization of the Bchool for literary excellence. Medals were also presented to Adelbert Hans and Henry Hochbery for faithful service to the orchestra, the medals being given by Ernest Isuer, an alumni member of the orchestra. A special certificate and a medal for general excellence were presented to Manheim RosenBwelg, editor-in-chief of the Annual, who leaves ths school to go to college.

Beside these medal winners. Dr. Falrley called to the platform a remarkable member of the class Charles W. Stroh-beck, jr. who Is Just 15 years old and who, during the ten years of his school life, has never been absent a day, and never been tardy.

The music, which was remarkably well rendered, was furnished by the Commercial High School Orchestra, under the direction of Edward J. A. Zeiner. The graduates were: Abraham L. Aaroson, Ephraim t.

SPLENDID CLASS OF 150. Boys Wear Uniform of Black Coat and 'White Trousers Some Tine Music by Young Oresaer. Commissioner John Martin, of the Board of Education, told the graduating class at Manual Training High School, last night, that the education the city bad given them was ample and a permanent protection against the debasement of their labor by ever Improving mechanical devices to save cost of production. Of the three-quarters of a million school children in the city they were of the four thousand elect, blest in high degree, who have completed the high school course. He told the girls that he could not gree with the writers, that women of the type of Jane Addams, noble and useful as they undoubtedly are, form the highest standard of women.

The fact is open to the eyes of all, he declared, that the home is the choice citizenship, the best expression of human life, involving the exercise of every, faculty and bringing Into the full flower the finest qualities. To his mind, in such an age and in every age, the finest woman must be the finest mother. The speaker thought the boys were particularly fortunate in getting such an education as that given at Manual. With much feeling, he noted the encroachment of machinery Into the domain of what was at one time skilled labor. It was the cause of the great strikes, he said, and he called attention to the fight now going on in a New Jersey city between the worker and the employer, which he declared was a hopeless one for the former.

The man could lio longer compete with the almost magical skill of the machine, which a girl or boy could tend as easily as the experienced man. And this Invasion of machinery has reduced the wages of the employe in the test ten years, and at the same time depleted the schools of young girls allured Into the shops to tend them. Mr. Martin Bald that in Massachusetts, the seat of education and learning, not so many boys and girls are entering high school as ten years ago. This he found to be true in the growing city of Worcester, the home town of the university founded for the still higher education or men who had completed a col lege course.

It Is true everywhere that a chance to send the girl Into the factory and the boy, too, Is cutting into the higher education of the land and is responsible lor the growing numbers of unskilled workers who drift aimlessly around looking for one job or another aad without special fitness for any. "You are fitted," said the speaker to the boys, "to become engineers and busi ness men. These are the places that call for the best men, and it is in them that brains are at the top. It makes you ever safe from the degradation of the labor-saving device and puts on you the re sponsibilities of leaders of Industry. It is true that Manual is not a vocational school, but it is also true that It is a school that emphasizes the hand-minded rather than the book-minded." Dr.

Farrar and Congressman Calder Were Present. On the platform with the principal were Dr. Farrar, pastor of the First Reformed Church, and Congressman William M. Calder, both of whom take a special Interest in this school. Dr.

Farrar, a member of the Board of Education, pre sented the diplomas to the graduates. He warned them not to be satisfied simply with graduation, but to regard it as another success, and that it was the opening up of greater successes in the future. Dr. Larklns presented the class. lie Bald that of the 160 members, 140 were graduates, that of the other twenty-odd some had failed tor no fault of their own and that most of then! would go to col lege, and he had no doubt that tney would make up the conditions there within the year.

He spoke of the Order of School Chivalry recently organized in the school, and explained that boys and girls who were not members were In no sense in disErace. and he warmly addressed the class as the children of the school, and ureed them to return at least eacn Christmas time, assuring them of a warm welcome at all times. The graduates marched into the audi torium, the girls carrying large bouquets of red roses and ferns, and the boys, for the first time, In black coats and white trousers. This latter innovation was the cause of much favorable comment. While the auditorium had but little decoration, still the masses of flowers brought in for the graduates gave rare beauty to the platform.

A feature that delighted all was the piano solo by that young artist, William Greaser. It waB a wonderful piece of work of a school boy, and the audience would have him back for another selection. Young Gresser will-be missed by Mr. Yerbury, even as his equally talented sister was a year or so ago. This was the only part on the programme taken by amember of the class.

For some years back an unknown graduate has been giving a gold medal for the best essay written by a boy and year it went to Mies Florence Littell and to Hans C. Pfalzgrat. The former's topic was "A Garden of Roses," and the latter's was "A Visit to Honornble mention was won by Miss Ruth Van Ingen and by Donald MaclBaacs. One Hundred and Fifty Graduates.

Gunnison to Organize the School When It Was Turned Over to City. Presenting a splendid appearance In their buff and blue gowns, the 264 mem' berg of th graduating class of Erasmus Hall High School filed across the platform of the big auditorium of the school Ust night and were awarded their diplomas by Associate City Superin tendent of Schools John H. Haaren. The Impressive exercises were witnessed by one of the largest audiences which was ever Jammed into the chapel, over two hundred persons being forced to find standing room in the rear. Dr.

Walter B. Gunnison presided. Many alumni were seen on all sides who had come back for the occasion. Of the entire programme, the outstanding feature was the farewell address given by Professor William R. Lasher, the grade advisor, who has been the especial friend and counsellor of every member of the big class ever since It entered Erasmus, four years ago.

After a few opening selections by the Bchool orchestra, the class of 1913 marched into the chapel, while the organ played e. processional, and then took the seats assigned to them In the front rows Then followed the address of Mr. Lasher, who said in part: "We have come again to the great semi-annual exodus from the school. A great drawbridge is being lowered from the tower of Erasmus, as It were, and over it are filing out 264 young men and women, the largest class in the history of the institution. "Of course this is a sad moment for us, who are left behind, but the parents of these students must be congratu lated upon the unusual good work of the 1 class.

Two hundred of Its members are planning to continue their education at college. "My relations with these graduates have been unusually pleasant. What few little disagreements arose have long since been forgotten. At you students are ready to leave us, and my last word to you would be to carry with you the precepts of Erasmus, loyalty, honesty, fearlessness, the spirit of fair play, all the simple virtues, in short, the things that really count in life." After the graduating class sang "Discovery," from "Olaf Trygason," Commissioner Arthur S. Somers was introduced as the guest of honor.

He sounded a warning against the jingoism of the day and expressed the opinion that so long as the high schools continue to send out graduates of high caliber, good common sense will prevail over the mock Sentiment and shallow patriotism so much talked of by certain classes and in certain circles. He laid the jingo disturbances In the West about the Japs to the prattle of polllcians inspired with a personal motive. In extending felicitations to the graduating Erasmians, Mr. Somers told of his rather intimate associations with the school and bis personal relations with Its founders as a city school many years ago. He was compelled to leave the chapel early as he was also scheduled to speak at the graduation exercises of the Girls High School.

The class then sang "Unfold Ye Portals," by Gounod. The singing was notably excellent. Dr. Gunnison then presented the candidates for diplomas and certificates. In a brief talk he expressed himself as doubly pleased to have Dr.

Haaren there to present the diplomas, because of the fact that Dr. Haaren was the man who helped him originally to organize ths school as a city institution. The presentation of the diplomas and certificates was punctuated by bursts of applause, especially when the students who had earned special distinctions stepped forward. Five of the class had the unusual record of having attended the school for four years without being once either absent or late. Among those who received a certificate was Miss Anna B.

Sydam, four generations of whose family on both her father's and mother's (the Lotts) side having attended Erasmus. After the then full-fledged alumni had sung the old school song, "Erasmus Hall" the last time they would all be togother under one roof singing with heart and soul the time-honored song of the school the organ sounded the Erasmus recessional, God, Our Help in Ages Past," to which the graduates marched out singing the grand hymn. Gowns were then discarded and the graduates went downstairs to the gymnasium where they enjoyed a dance to which only a few close friends were Invited. As it was, there was a very large crowd on the floor. List of Graduates.

viola C. Read, Elizabeth Plummer Kenton, Dr. Cadman Warns Girls High School Graduates Against Being Merely "Smart." WILL FAIL IF NOT MORAL. Eays New Woman Is Splendid, hut There's Nothing the Matter With the Old One. The Rev.

S. Parkes Cadman was the peaker last night at the commencement xercises of the Girli High School held in the auditorium. Dr. Cadman arrived In the middle of a very long programme which was taken part In for the most part by the graduates. He made a short talk, very happy In character.

Among other things which he said a girl acquired by a high school course was vol- untary concentration. "And not only that," lie went on, "but this concentra- tlon makes you face disagreeable things with an attitude you might otherwise not have. Most educational pursuits have in them a moral tendency, and this ten- -dency high school graduates have acquired. Everything In education has Its Issue; every problem In education Is a moral problem. If you fall after leaving high school, It Is because you lack morality.

"The merely smart girl," he continued, "Is Intolerable. She is not worth very much, If she Is merely smart without being moral. Girls must not be selfish, dressed-up pieces of humanity, merely; tbey must be willing and kind, and a predlt to their home and country. Some people suffer from Ingrowing religion, so you must not only be true, but sweet end gracious; make things beautiful, and win beauty for your country." At this point. Dr.

Cadman spoke of the ugly bridges In this country, and contrasted them to works of art In other countries, and said be sees a new Renaissance In this country. He urged the girls to Indulge In domestic arts. "If you can turn from a beef steak," he said, "to the violin, so much the better, and If you know all the domestic arts, then you have Indeed a high place In the community. "The new woman is splendid, but then there was nothing the matter with the old one. You can never be anything better or higher than a happy wife and mother.

So when you come to it, pay your dejbts, cook your dinners, and you will be a Joy forever." Keep Close to the Common People and Life's Commonplaces. In closing Dr. Cadman urged the girls to always be on speaking terms with the icommon people, and the commonplaces of life, no matter how high they may rise, as he said, to his mind there is nothing In this world more fascinating than the average man and woman. After Dr. Cadman's talk Dr.

Felter Introduced Arthur S. Soraers, who presented the diplomas. In presenting the class, Dr. Felter spoke of the high re-Card for scholarship the class had made tor Itself, and Bpoke of the fact that distinguished this class from most others the fact that there was so much individualism. The programme preceding the address was taken part In by the girls.

They Bang In chorus, and the prima donna of the class. Miss Mnrion Penrose Chrlsfleld, gave two solos. There was a scene from "Ingomar," given by Miss Grace Dorothy Canavello and Miss Virginia Van Brunt. The address of welcome was made by Miss Jessie Edna Niles, president of the class. The girls this year made their own graduation dresses and the prize for the most suitable dress went to Florence Plotkln.

Out of the twenty-one girls who received certificates, many have a chance of getting their diplomas In September when the result of examinations they lhave taken becomes known.

Delighted With the Graduation Exer cises at P. S. No. 167. Editor Brooklyn Daily Eagle: It was my pleasure and privilege last Tuesday evening to witness the inspiring graduation exercises of Public School No.

144, which were held in the audi torium of Public School No. 167. Thj evident enjoyment, the excellent order and breathless attention shown by the audience that packed the great assembly were the best compliments that could be given to the zealous teachers whose faithful work made the exercises such a success. Miss Dreyfus was in charge of the musio as well as of the play, "Mile Stones of Slavery," and she was the guiding spirit. As I watched her she seemed like a very attractive human magnet, with ability to draw from the pupils such marvelous results.

The small actors, "coached by her, drew real tears from the audience. Never have I seen such acting on the part of children of their age. I should like to express my thanks through The Eagle for the pleasure her hard work gave to bo many. There was not a dull moment from the Impressive entrance of the graduates singing a processional, to the end, when the exquisite class song on 144 was so beautifully sung. Particularly worthy of mention was the perfect declamation of the girls of the graduating class.

Many were the words of praise for their clear articulation and expression. The boys made a fine showing In their mimetic exercises and the Folk dancing of the girls was very pretty. Indeed, the whole programme was marked by perfection of detail, precision and enthusiasm, Buch as I have seldom witnesed, and which bodes well for the school and throws great credit upon its teachers. May they one and all enjoy a delightful Bummer Is the wish of A DELIGHTED PARENT. Brooklyn, June 26.
