81 VIII Make of Thee a Great Nation"
Lowell E. Jepson, in behalf of T h e
10 u r n a l, presented the urn a l
gold medal to Mr.. Cohen He spoke in
part as follows:
To you, Mr.. Cohen and your classmates,
and to this vast audience, wish to say that
although this is an age of commercialism,
both at home and abroad, and though the
strife upon the surface seems to be indus
trial and commercial, yet at the same time
this is pre-eminently, educational age.
Never before have We invested so much
money in libraries universities, - colleges
academies, high schools and graded schools
as to-day. .~--..
The Minneapolis Journal, wishing to stim-
uate a high standard of scholarship in the
Minneapolis schools, offered a prize in the
form of this beautiful gold medal, 10 that
scholar who, during the four years high
school course, attains the highest scholar
ship. This year in the other schaoss of our
city, this honor been awarded. to young
ladies. but not so in the North high. This
young man, Mr.. Nathan Cohen, as 4 am in
formed by the principal, has made an aver
age for the four high school years above
93 am also informed that aside from the
regular high school course, he has taken one
and one-half years work in manual training,
and I know that he has done a great deal
Of outside work. And now, Mr.. Cohen, in
behalf of The Minneapolis Journal, l present
you with this medal as reward of merit
and high scholarship, and in SO doing I wish
% say to you and to all the rest, that al
though all are created equal. yet all
men are not of equal value to the world.
We have had but one Plato, one Dante, one
Shakspere, one Raphael, and one Lincoln and
yet each of these have in their own way been
beacon lights in inspiring us to greater eff
fort and higher aims. And now look not upon
this medal simply as a reward of merit,
but. as an inspiration to all that is highest
and purest and noblest and best.
Other essays were given as follows:
'!Our Picturesque Grandmothers,'' Helen
M. Archer; under the Lilacs," Charlotte
H. Sandborn; ''The First Wealth is
Health" Laura G. Williams, and t"The
Rise of the University,'' Alma Jackson.
The North high orchestra and the Glee
club furnished appropriate musical selec-
tions. The, diplomas were presented by
Superintendent C. NJ. Jordan.

MONCRIEF'S RAD TUMBLE
The Eastern Rluer Fails to "Loop
the Loop"

The Eastern ,Rl.er Fails to 'Loop
the Loop"
Clarence A Hamilton, as 3rMoncrief. -
who has been looping the loop at
Brooklyn for the last month without a
fluke, was the last rider to try to make
the round of the Elks' fair loop with dis
astrous results to himself late yesterday
afternoon. His first try at 8 O'Clock
bore out the feeling of confidence in his
ability to put on the act. He made the
dizzy whirl without accident, and it was
believed that one more trip would con-
clusively demonstrate his ability to Ego
the round as regular daily attraction
at the fair for the two remaining days.
When Hamilton came flying down the
runway for the second trial at about e
o'clock he realized that his speed wasn't
sufficient to see him safely through
Reaching the apex of the loop, wheel and
rider fell heavily to the floor. Hamilton
was unconscious when picked up. Ex-
animation at the city. hospital showed
that he had sustained dislocated shoul-
der, broken nose, and confusion at the
base of the brain in addition to cuts and
bruises. He will be confined to his bed
for a week or two. -.
Owing to the fact that the loop the loop
act has been widely advertised, the fair
management has not yet given up hopes
of putting on the spectacle. Another
rider who is now doing a daily loop turn
in the east with his own track may reach
here by Monday. If he does, the lool
the loop act will be put on for three days
next week, after Jabour's attractions have
departed. - .t.s ,.:. ~ - = .--.- .

Cooling Apparatus for. Homes.

Willis L.. Moore, chief of the, weather
bureau, has recently secured patent on
his cooling apparatus for homes. At about
the same expense required to heat house
in winter you can cool it in summer to
any temperature desired. Besides cooling
the air this machine renders it dry and
healthful. With, such a machine and
golden grain belt beer you can make hot
test weather not only bearable, but ex-
ceedingly pleasant. Brewed from the
purest barley malt and hops this beer is
delicious and refreshing and should be in
every home.
