DR. SHERA MONTGOMERY
FOR COMMENCEMENT
----------
(From Wednesday's Daily.)
Dr. Shera S. Montgomery, pastor of the Calvary church in Washington, D.C., and brother of Ed. K. Montgomery, of this city, has been secured to deliver the commencement address before the fifty-five high school seniors who will receive their diplomas on the night of May 31, immediately after conclusion of the address. Dr. Montgomery was a brilliant speaker at the local chatauqua, and he is busy during most of his spare time as a platform lecturer.
In selecting Dr. Montgomery, the board of education and Prof. J. W. Holton, city superintendent of schools, are maintaining their practice of obtaining successful Shelby county men to usher the graduates out of the high school. Last year the speaker was Prof. Edwards, bormerly principal of the high school and now an officer in the army of the United States.
