The Boston journal in accounting for
the fact that there are so many deserted
farms in the New England states, SAYS
that there were not Yankees enough to
go around" and as the west wanted
them more than the east, they went
there. Still another authority in the
matter says the deserted farms were
never intended for farms, any way, and
that the sooner they are relegated to
forestry, the better for the section.

"A manner rejecting great credit upon
our school management and which
must have afforded the liyeliest gratifi-
cation 10 the parents and friends of the
graduates.
Where all did SO well rs To elicit the
unstinted plaudits of the audience il il
an extremely delicate matter for one Ia
attempt comparison of the relative
merits of the several very meritorious
productions.
Miss Gertie Beebe called the atten-
ton Of the audience 10 Natures Mira
cles' in manner which proved her "A
thoughtful student of the great book of
Nature.
Frank Osborne's Theoretical Alb.
surdities, with the original theory used
in illustration, was very ingenious and
well proven.
Geo. Green, in his Modern Phillip
pic" showed IA good knowledge of his
old Grecian model, and exhorted his
fellow citizens in quite Demosthenic
style
The question Can Our American Re-
public Endure Another Centuiy?" was
ably discussed by Miss LOra Glidden
and Harry McNei the former taking
the affirmative and the latter the mega
tive. 1t would have been II difficult
matter for any one to decide which won
the day. The inspiring strains of the
Star Spangled Banner, rendered by the
orchestra between the two parts of this
discussion, was happy thought.
The "Johnsonese Production" of Miss
Lola Douglass made il evident that that
young lady was not only on familiar
terms with her authors, hut that she
has happy faculty of illustrating their
eccentricties.
Ralph Jennings showed "What We
Owe to Greece" with forcible array of
historic facts.
Miss Lena Wise presented an essay
entitled Graduated, not Educated"
that will not soon be forgotten. Not
withstanding the length of the pro-
gramme and extreme heat of the
weather, her valedictory was listened
To with rapt attention. Indeed, the
conduct of the audience during the en-
tire evening was the highest compl-
ment that could have been paid to the
class.
Otis Bigelows Dowagiac orchestra
is worthy n more extended notice than
our space will admit. The music they
furnished was excellent. Indeed, many
of the selections were executed in
manner which proved them to be must
clans of high order.
Mr.. o. w. Rowland, as president of
the school board, presented the diplo-
mas, and the exercises closed with
benediction pronounced by Rev. +. III.
