The High School Graduation Exercises.

Thursday evening the graduating ex-
ercises of the Pembina High School for
1902 drew full house at Kittson Hall.
On the stage were the school board,
Prof keenan,, Supt. Alexander, Rev. Mr..
Watson and the graduating class of five
members. The stage was very prettily
decorated with the class colors, ferns and
plants. The musical part of the program
was very fine, the Short orchestra giving
several numbers; the male quartet, who
were encored; piano, by Muriel Full;
duet, by Mrs. Feldman and Miss Cavi-
leer.
The orations of the graduates were of
course the events of the evening, and
were listened to with close attention by
the audience.
Harold A. Noyes discoursed of the
"Flickertail State" sketching its past
and foretelling its future with many OBJ
servatlons and comments on the present.
MIR. Noyes was original, and spoke as if
he believed what he said and would con-
vince others, which is the basis of all
true oratory.
E.Vida McCafery in "a Richer Claim
compared the dangers and disappoint-
ments of the gold seekers of California
and Alaska with the neglected and richer
opportunities within reach here at home.
Miss McCafery spoke in clear, we'll
modulated voice, and her sentences and
sentiments were highly appreciated by
the listeners.
Guy R. Mckay, whose subject was the
Influence Of the Newspaper" treated Of
the topic like veteran journalist, and
backed up his own sentiments by copious
quotations from Greeley, Dana, Bennett
and other old-time editors, which showed
considerable research, and which, to-
gether. made a very finished literary
product
S. Muriel Full. in her essay on ''The
Twin Republics" compared the oldes
and smallest republic, Switzerland, with
the newer and greater republic of Amerj
ca, comparing the methods OF govern
ment; and, while criticising the Unitee
States, closed with an eloquent tribute t.
i the flag and our institutions.

"A mans first care should be his
family, and then comes his bust
ness. Aftes these two interests,
nothing should receive more atten-
ton from him than the progress
and prosperity of the town where
he resides. There is something
wrong with the man who takes no
interest in the welfare and advance
ment of the locality in which he
rears his children, earns his living
and spends his time. Even if we
look at the matter from g. selfish
standpoint entirely, the above is
true. The man is narrow minded
indeed, who cannot see that what
benefits his community is a benefit
to him. We believe if this were
more generally realized there would
be fewer people spending their time
IN running down their home towns,
and more people ready to help by
an encouraging word or generous
deed. If your neighbor has been
fortunate enough to do something
which may bring him some money
or fame, and at the same time be
help to the town, don't run down
what he has accomplished. In
fact the ways in which one may be
a help and not a hindrance to his
town are many.

1t is advised by some of the lead
ing naval experts that we stop
building battleships until it is ac-
curately ascertained what can be ac
complished in the way of subma-
rine boats. This seems reasonable
advice in view ofsome things which
have already been accomplished. A
trial of one of the new submarines
was made not long ago. Itran two
miles under water, returned to its
starting place, discharged White
head torpedo missing the mark by
only ten feet. In later trial this
same boat travelled under water fif-
teen miles without coming to the
surface, and fred torpedo which
struck an imaginary ship square
amidships. This was officially de-
signated as three hour submer-
ged trial. A prominent naval officer
says that an American harbor de-
Tended by submarine torpedo boats
operating between submerged mines
would be practically impregnable.

America is said to be the most
temperate nation of the civilized
world. Lady Henry Somerset ex-
pressed this opinion and was criti-
cised for being unpatriotic in exalt-
ing America above the mother
country. However facts sustained
her statement. The total amount
of alcoholic beverages consumed
annually per capita is, in the Uni
ted States 14.73 gallons, while in
England it is 1921, in Germany
30.S7, and in France, 1852. In
temperance is on the decrease toe,
in our country, so statistics tell us,
while in other countries it is on
the increase or at standstill. We
as Americans have a right to be
justly proud of these facts. but
there is still much to hope for.
There is no doubt thut these facts
help TO explain what Lady Somer-
set terms Greater alertness and
energy" in the men of our nation,
aud also the wonderful progress
and growth of our material institu-
tions.

1t seems that it is Marconi's turr


1t seems that it is Marconi's turn
TO laugh now. Much sport has
been had at the expense of his wire
less telegraphy methods. In re-
cent trial, communication was kept
up between steamer crossing the
Atlantic, and the American coast,
during the entire voyage. This
looks as though time is all that he
will need to make his method prac-
teal in every day business life.
Marconi's is not the only system of
wireless telegraphy as the Germans
have system which they seem to
prefer to his. Great expense will
be saved of course if this method
becomes practical as it seems likely
to do.

Miss Emma Imobersteg came very
near being the victim of serious acci.
dent last week. She was returning from
the post office, and seeing COW in front
OF Mrs. Applegate's store building, as
sayed to drive her away when the brute
turned on her and showed fight. Miss
1mobersteg slipped and lost her balance
thus giving the COW an advantage of
which the beast was not slow in availing
herself She knocked Miss Imoborsteg
down, and began butting her, in such a
manner that she could not get to her feet.
Had the COW had horns or in case no one
had been near the consequences would no
doubt have been serious indeed. Mrs.
Appegate happened to see what was be-
ing done. in time to frighten the COW
away by running and screaming. Fort.
unately Miss sImobersteg was not injured
otherwise than from the fright. WeJeol
that when such thing can occur on
Main Street, in the business part of the
town, it is time that some measurers
were taken as preventative. There is
surely city ordinance against allowing
loose stock to run the streets, and many
citizens have before felt that such ordi-
nance should be enforced, and after such
an occurrence there can surely be no
doubt in the mind of any one, concerning
the Importance of such enforcement.
