DEWEY'S SPEECH.

On the Fourth of July, 1898, says E.
/. Young in the New York Journal, Adj
miral Dewey was up and about at 5
o'clock in the morning.
The Fourth is a great day on a war
ship anyhow, and. this being the
Fourth right after we had destroyed
the Spanish feet in Manila harbor,
every jackie and boy aboard was look

After breakfast Dewey had all the
men mustered on the spar deck to hear
a few words he wanted to say TO them.
We brought the color to the cheek OF
the old man with the heartiness of our
cheers.
you all know, boys" he said, what
the Fourth of July means to us. The
country never had a birthday more
significant than this, and you may be
sure that the share you have had in
making this glorious year in Ameri-

His Face sDoiIs Razors

Ibid you see the man who just went
out?" asked an uptown barber Of a
customer as a swarthy individual left
the shop. Eyes? Well, he spoils a
razor every time l shave him, and he
comes here twice a week regularly.
He is a stonecutter, and the grit and
dust are so imbedded in the pores of his
face that it is like drawing a razor
over the side of stone. | always use
the best tools l have upon him, but
they are not stone proof, and a dull
razor is the result when his beard is
removed.
HE is customer upon whom l lose
money, and am glad to say that he is
the only stonecutter who favors me
with his patronage. l often wonder
how it is that he doesn't vince when
the razor strikes a section of stone
that is imbedded in his face and
bounds off, but it is probably because
his skin is so hardened that he feels
no i'll effects" - Philadelphia Tele

at the appointed hour, with a large at
tendance.
An invocation by Rev. G.. +. Hutfer
was first on the program, after which a
recitation, WANTED, Boy" was given
by Clarence Hawley, which was deliv-
cred in an excellent manner.
Following this was an GRAFTON, 1.-The
American Boy" by Harold Jacobs. He
cited long line of American boys who
had become heroes in many ways, giving
illustrations of each and finishing with a
plea for chance for the American boys
who are to fill the places of the heroes
of today.
After recitation by Hazel Curtiss
and one by Dell Linderman, both OF
which were we'll delivered, "An Extract
from Ancient History" was read by Nora
Colburn. 1t was intensely interesting
from beginning to end, being history
of the early life of Paw Paw and bring
ing out many points of interest in re-
gard to the earliest pioneers, some of
whom are still living. The paper was
we'll read and deserving of the applause
it received.
recitation was then given by Lloyd
Harvey entitled EARLY Rising" follow
ing which was an address to the class
by w. G. Y. Ferguson, in which he pic
tured bright future, finishing with the
presentation of the diplomas.
Next was song by the quartette,
Messrs. Cummings, More, Jennings and
Haworth, with the soprano, Mrs. More,
in the background. All were in their
usual fine form.
After this came the principal feature
of the evening, the operetta, entitled "Po-
cahontas." The characters were all well
chosen and gave evidence of the pa
thence and skill Of their instructors. The
stage was appropriately decorated, en-
aiding them to carry the play through in
pleasing and entertaining style.
A trio Friends, Good Night" by
Misses Cooley and Hayden and Mrs.
More, sung in their charming manner,
concluded the evenings entertainment
and the audience left satisfied that it
had been time well spent.

Grade Exercise :.

The grade exercises at the opera house
yesterday forenoon were very enjoyable.
The program opened with a nice vocal
Wilson, after which fine recitation was
given by little Pauline Sellick.
Ruby johnson sang pretty song, and
Ethel Scott recited nicely, "Out to Old
Aunt Mary's."
Freda Snow sang sweetly, "Dandelion
and Pussy Willow" after which we'll
rendered recitation, "The Young Old
Man." was given by Harold Cross.
Dale Harrison gave one of his mimi
table little songs, which was followed
bya recitation by Nina Billiard.
Katherine Cole, Carrie Toan and
Hattie Wall sang pretty trio, and Pearl
Stevens recited "Goblins" and another
laughable selection.
The balance of the program was en-
tirely musical, a song by Morse Hutfer,
one by little Helen Harrison, a piano
solo by Minnie Bishop, songs by Vivian
McCabe Katherine More and Margaret
Cole, all exceedingly well rendered
The first grade had the last numbers
on the program, two choruses, BLACK
smiths Song" and Vacation Song" after
which they ended the exercises with the
"class yell, an ingenious one that pleas
ed the large audience that filled the hall.
The large amount of music on the pro-
gram is especially gratifying, giving
promise that in few years there will be
no lack of new musical talent of a high
order in Paw Paw.

DisOrder.

! distrust both the intellect and the
morality Of those people to whom dis
order is of no consequence-who can
live at ease in an Augean stable. What
surrounds us reflects more or less that
which Is within us. The mind is like
one of those dark lanterns which in
spite OF everything still throw some
light around. If our tastes did not re-
veal our character they would be no
longer tastes, but misunderstanding Sou
Vestre.

less in 1902 than 1901. This was
decline of about S per cent, Ohio,
with Its yield both of Pennsylvania
and Lima oil, showed decrease OF
633.S52 barrels, or nearly 8 per

facts are more strikingly revealed
by comparison of the percentages
of production of the various oils. In
