Schools Free From the Usual
Stir Before Vacation.
No Graduating Class This Year,
Which II Also Something
Unusual.
PLAY WILL DE GIVEN

There will be no commencement
for the public schools of Paducah
this year for the first time perhaps
since the schools were established
many years ago for there Is no grad
uating class. While the schools In
ether cities are interested in the COM
ing commandments, with their dan-
ty dresses, essays, and freedom from
school ties. Paducah pupils are pur-
suing the even tenor of their way
from a scholastic standpoint. and
commence ment for the first time as
far back as the memory of man run
meth. is not in the least disturbing
exciting or interesting them.
The reason Is that there will be
no commencement in Paducah this
year. A new grade has been estab
lished. and the class that would have
graduated this year Will instead go
into this new twelfth grade.
II is the list time since the Padu.
cab schools came into existence that
there will De no graduating class and
commencement
Next year order will be restored.
and the class that would have gradu-
ated this year had not an extra grade
been added. will graduate then in
stead, and from that time on the
commencement will take place as
usual.
The only commencement exercises
likely will be a play to he given at
the auditorium by the pupils aboGt
commencement time. The play has
nos been selected and tae time has
not been st for giving 1t but 1t will
lie the only thing in the way o. clos
ing exercises held in the public

Some Of the big editors are expa-
tlating on "Peonage" by the column,
but Uncle Sam is going to settle the
question according to his own con-
science and the federal constitution
The question is not. as Chicago pa
per seems 10 think, whether or not
fine is debt and a person can be
imprisoned for debt. but whether or
not a misdemeanor Is a crime, and
a person can be committed to hard
labor In lieu Of fine, The federal
constitution says involuntary servi-
tude cannot be exacted except upon
conviction for crime, and the ques-
tion now 10 be decided is whether
conviction for misdemeanor means
conviction for crime. Anyone knows
a person can be imprisoned in lieu OF
a fine; the government itself does IL.
The contention In these peonage cas-
es Is that Imprisonment for fines
should take the place OF hard labor,
When a person is convicted of a pet
~ offense and cannot pay the hne
lie becomes burden on the taxpay-
ers, who have 10 pay for his keep
and there should be some way 10
make him pay for the expense OF
feeding him. But whether or not
