Prison Entertainments.

1T is not many years ago when it was a rare
thing for the press chronicle the fact of enter
tainment taking place in any of penal institu-

seldom given. Nowadays almost every prison in
this country and in Europe make generous provi-

Athens. Concluding, she said: s'The
lesson, then, which Athens teaches us
is this: "Do not regard past men, past
deeds and ruined shrines as dead as USE
less limbs upon the tree of Time. The
Past has made the Present, just as the
Present is now fashioning Futurity.
Moreover, since one lofty sentiment be-
gets another, one valiant deed inspires
second, and one sublime achievement
is stepping stone to loftier heights:
what portion of our earth can give to
us more inspiration than Athens birth
place of the earliest masterpieces of the
human race, the mother of fimperishable
memories, and of an art that conquers
time"
Ira Denning handled the subject,
''Unseen versus Seem" 'spurred on
by Cody mother, or perchance a friend,
great men triumphed over their beset-
ting temptations, that was their mainstay
in hours Of adversity and trouble. Some
where perhaps at mothers knee,
probably in mission school, there were
implanted within them the principles of
the right that leads to might. *** But
the good resulting from the unseen
power that prompts people to do right,
has its reverse in the bad coming from
small evils, which the majority Of peo-
pie indulge in. Though they are SEEM
ingly small at first, they grow on unseen
by their victims. But as all that goes
up must come down, and all that
goes in must come out, SO in a few years.
time we notice the character becoming
more and more careless, finally throwing
self-respect to the winds, and going down
forever and for eternity, unless re-
claimed by the infinite mercy of a merci-
full father" The black scourge of
slavery crept in unseen on our land,
and it took years of human sacrifice to
eradicate it. every drop of blood
drawn with the lash, was paid by an
other drawn by the sword" After
speaking of the great evils of intemper-
ance the speaker concluded: Glow
careful we should be that we walk in
the right way. One step to either side
may take you into the wrong fork of
the road. AS we are, so will be our
nation. Then may we so live that his
tory can bring no reproach upon us.

One of the Best Glasses Ever Turned Out of the
Oakes High School--Baccalaureate Address
and Alumni Banquet Fitting Climaxes

The most successful yearin the history
Of the Oakes high school was completed
last week when the senior class had it's
commencement exercises at the Acad-
emy Of Music. The hall was prettily
decorated with red and green bunting.
Potted plants and flowers set off the
foreground Of the platform, while the
sides and rear were draped with lace
curtains. Above the front of the stage
stood out in red the class motto: Row
ing not drifting. !"
It was $50 when the class marched
to their seats on the platform, followed
by those who took part in the program.

ETHEL SOPHIA sAvOLD

The young ladies were dressed in white
and the boys in suits of black, and each
wore knots Of red carnations, the class
flower.
Malchow's orchestra opened the pro-
gram with one of their excellent selec-
tions, which was followed with invoca-
tion by Rev. j. N. Loach.
Theodore Lee, as salutatorian,
welcomed all to their commencement.
He spoke of the interest shown by par
ents, the board of education, the faculty,
and fellow students, and welcomed all
wished them the same joy and happiness
as was theirs. He then launched into
the subject of Universal Peace" de-
claring that man is born in sin, and if
left to grow up unrestricted, would re-
suit in savagery and barbarism. It
cropped out in early ages in the desire
Of man to torture and kill, and to war
against each other. But Christianity
came and civilization with it, until tor
turous sports had been almost abolished
and mans highest aim was universal
peace. The conquests Of Alexander, Of
Caesar, Of Napoleon, was due to untir-
ing ambition, but each had died an
humble death. But with civilization
and Christianity came education, and
with education came the common sense
way Of settling disputes-the Hague
peace tribunal. Arbitration is coming.
It is the cheapest and best way, and in
time it will be the only way.
.Athens" was the theme of Miss
Mary Morgan. "a nations influence"
she said, . is not dependent upon its size.
Its glory is not measured by square
miles. Greece is the smallest Of all
European countries, being not larger
than Richland, Sargent and Dickey
counties, yet in the light of what a few
Athenians accomplished in the days of
Phidias, China's four hundred millions
are like shadows cast by moving clouds.
China compared with Athens! The en-
lightened world could better lose the
entire continent of Asia than that little
area. Better fifty yearsof Athens than
cycle Of Cathay!"
The speaker highly described the
beauties and wonders Of immortal Athens
and the great men Of Greece, and drew
alesson from her artists and her states
men. ''With the exception of the
Naxarene no man ever spoke like
Socrates. He had no notes nor did he
ever write line, but his thoughts will

cooperate in order to get effective re-
sults.''
"Our whole life is battlefield" said
Miss Hilda Anderson in her essay on
'Nameless Heroes Gin which nameless
heroes walk serenely on their way, per-
sisting always in doing what their con-
sciences tell them is right and inspiring
all with their nobleness. *** With
slow and solemn tread pass on the seers,
the prophets, the reformers, who have
been wiser than their time, and did not
live to see the joyous harvest of the
seed they had sown. Then were the
scientists who had gone down into ma
ture's laboratory and surprised her
secrets, wrestling therefrom forces that
revolutionized the world. Passing on
the speaker alluded to the heroes that
had no incentive except the good they
could do their fellowmen. Their names
and deeds may not be recorded in his
tory, but their lives were examples to
those who came after them. Lord
Byron wrote: "The drying up of a
single tear has more of honest fame
than the shedding of seas of gore"
The drying of single tear may not
win for us great fame, but know: 1.-The
maelstrom attracts more notice than
the steady star; but it is better to be
the fountain than the maelstrom and
the star than the comet"
s.The Relation Between the United
States and Canada" formed the theme
of Wilson Coulter. Canada, he said,
should be annexed to the United States
for the reasons: They are of the same
people and language; their geographical
relations are closer than any other two
countries of the world; there would be
no tariff differences to adjust, no Gus
tom houses to pass in going from one
country to another; it would impair the
crime of stealing across the border, and
give to it's people country with condi-
tions for great prosperity. It would
not be advantageous to unite with
Mexico on the south. They speak a
different tongue, are of different race
and color. Canada is still under the
bane of the mother country, England,
and the reason the speaker gave for
breaking away is enunciated in Burke's
Cancellation with America. g The far
ther away the pulse from the heart the
weaker the pulse; the closer the flow to
the heart the stronger the pulse,''
which relates also to government. The
farther away from the seat of govern
ment the harder it is to rule the people,
and the more difficult it will be to col
lect taxes, The nearer the seat of gov
ernment the easier it will be. But one
danger in the alliance might be that the
United States might want to be strong
like Ancient Rome, and imperialistic
methods might lead to her downfall.
Miss Emma Nepstad gave carefully
prepared paper on Industry. ''By
industry" T" she said, 1--WE mean activity
that is regular and devoted to the carry
ing out of some purpose that will be use
full to ourselves or others. It is thus by
steady attention to labor that our well
fare, or that Of others, may be furthered.
We are apt to think or at least to feel
that the necessity of working regularly
is hardship. Because we get tired of

tunity to go ahead? Because they had
not the stick-to-it-iveness the courage,
if you please-to mount to the top.
The early settlers of our country needed
courage. It was through their efforts
and those who fought the wars that fol-
lowed that this country now enjoys it's
liberty and freedom. eve may have
courage but that alone is not enough.
We must also have a moral purpose or
aim and possess that assemblage of
virtues which make up character. It
has firm foundation and asserts itself
at all times" Summing up, she said:
'Let us therefore boldly face the life
of strife with a strong resolution to do
our duty we'll, to have the courage to
stand for the right, to deal fairly,
honestly and fearlessly with all men,
and to stick to any task, once begun,
until it has been brought to successful
and triumphant conclusion"
Statehood" was the theme of very
able paper by Miss Martha Mitchell.
She gave the history of the admission
as states of Oklahoma and Indian Ter
ritory, and of Arizona and New Mexico
in the fifty-eighth congress, and the
final defeat of the measures in commit
tee of the whole. Its defeat, she said,
was due s'to the influence of two great
railway corporations, which dominate
the transportation and therefore the
politics of the two territories. These
are the Southern Pacific and the Sante
Fe. If these companies can have Ariz-
ona and New Mexico admitted separ-
ately they can be sure of four senators
and at least two representatives bound
to their interests. These would be
against anything that would hasten the
completion Of the Panama canal. Here
is the very strongest political reason
why Arizona and New Mexico should
never be admitted except as one state.
It is absurd that population, such as
these territories have, should be given
equal weight in the senate with state,
say like North Dakota, when we think
of the superior intelligence of the in
habitants.
"United States immigration was
discussed by Albert johnson. He COM
pared the conditions of this country in
the eighteenth century with the present
day, and showed that the wonderful
advancement in population and re-
sources was due to the great influx of
immigration. Without the foreigner
the West would not be developed as it
is. The vast opportunities here have
been the only elements in producing the
transfer Of population. t'The oppres-
sive conditions in foreign countries
have caused the name of our nation to
stand as light in the gloom of dark
ness radiating its beams of liberty and
freedom upon every foreign strand. :"
Nearly two million immigrants landed
on our shores in the past two years, and
indications are that this will be the
banner year, as one hundred fifty-two
thousand had arrived at the port of
New York up to April 22nd. The
speaker logically discussed the classes
that hang together in the cities, defy
ing law and order, and threatening our
very existence as nation. "Higher
qualifications should be required of the
immigrant: The comforting of citizen
