Beeman Addresses Waterloo High School Graduates Class of 1908
The East Waterlong high school class of 1908 held its baccalaureate address at Walnut Street Episcopal Church delivered by Ray H. G. Reeman. The 94 potential graduates march from the school to the church, where faculty joined them for the exercises. The service used Beeman’s allegory of a grain of wheat to describe student progress through school to college and future pursuits. The graduation exercises are set for Thursday evening, June 4 at the Waterloo theatre with free admission. The report also notes ongoing district court accounting in the Holmes vs Vaughan case and a Cedar River launch incident involving a Rock Island clerk, with possible days of court due to primary-election fallout.
