The Bowling Green Commencement
was held at the Grand Opera House in
that city on Wednesday night of this
week. The class numbered 81 pupils,
and. as usual embraces the names of
many OF the most prominent young
people of the town. The programme
included musical numbers from both
local and foreign talent, the popular
vocalist, Mr.. B. W. Clayton, being
among the number. There were but
four class orations-one each by Miss
Lehman, Miss Carney, Mr.. Harry
Brewer and Mr.. Oldroyd. The class
address was delivered by Mrs. Esther
E. Barton, the principal of the school,
the lady who has done good work in
every place wherever she has been en-
gagged as teacher, and who always has
the respect and love of her pupils.
Prof. Haylor has reason to be justly
proud Of the work he has done in Bow
ling Green and the success that has been
his during the many years of his
school work, and he people of Bow
ling Green have reason to feel proud of
their schools.

There are those who are always COM
planning aud never ready to see, or ac-
knowledge, any good in any institution
or enterprise that is new feature in
the affairs OF the municipality. In line
with this statement the JOURNAL has
heard people say that the Toledo & Maui
NEE Valley electric road drained the
town OF money aud was of no senefit
to our village. except to furnish an easy
means of transportation to the city.
There is little use OF arguing with this
class Of people, but the JOURNAL will
give figures which will have d tendency
to prove the falsitv OF the oft repeated
statement mentioned above. A few
evenings since the JOURNAL observed
a number of Perrysburg gentlemen who
were workmen for the road congrega-
ted at the store of VIM. Barton, and
learned they were awaiting to receive
their pay for the past two weeks work.
For the past six months Mr.. Barton has
been acting as an assistant paymaster
at Perrysburg, and the pay roll for Sec
tion men, barn men and other laborers
(not including motormen and conduct
ors) is left with him, and to give the
reader an idea of the amount paid each
month, we we're permitted to look at
the rolls. The amount paid on the 9Th
OF May was $442,l3; on May Goth, the
amount was 1927 %, a total for May of
$3.50. 3S. AT no time during the past six
months has the semi-mUnthly roll
amounted less than $3.50. The JOUR
NAL would ask has any other one instl-
tuition in Perrysburg during the past Ia
years, paid more money to Perrysburg
labOring men than this? Not that any
one knows of. Add to this, tho fact
that there is not vacant house in the
village and that rents have increased
and property (when anybody is willing
TO sell.) brings almost as high prices as
Toledo property, 1t would seem tina.
Perrysburg has not been ''swamped" as
yet, notwithstanding the statements of
few to the contrary.
