was fractured. A piece of bone pressing
upon the brain caused commissions
until he was finally relieved by the nee

Of bone we're removed and the depressed

operation he quickly recovered con-

nicely, with excellent prospects Of fully
recovering, barring unlooked-for com-

MEMORIAL DAY
APPROPRIATE EXESClSES HELD AT
THE CHURCH.

The Memory of the Nations Dead
Fittingly Honored by Grand Marais.
Speeches. Music. Recitations and
Other Patriotic Exercises.
Patriotism would indeed be at low
ebb were popular appreciation Of the
real significance of Memorial Day not
intensified by the excellent program
that was carried out at the church
Thursday afternoon. This was but the
second formal observance in Grand Ma
rails of the day so worthily dedicated to
the memory of our soldier dead; but,
safe to say, fitting observance of the day
shall not henceforth be omitted.
Thursdays exercises consisted of
addresses, Rotations, music, etc., as
ANNOUNCED IN these columns last week
A solo was rendered by q. P. Taylor and
the popular male quartette favored the
audience with patriotic song. Ad-
dresses we're delivered by D. B. Meal
pine and S. T. Beede. We regret being
unable, for want OF time, to give a syn
opsls of these talks. DR.. Hicks was to
speak also, but the hour had grown so
late when his part was reached that he
asked to be excused.
The remainder of the program was
contributed by the school children and
they did splendidly, eliclting earnest
praise from the audience. The exercises
were closed with prayer by Rev. H. M.
Pinkerton, following which lunch was
served.

souvedir invitations that were sent out
by the graduates we're prefaced by the
class motto, "Hitch your wagon to

which they approach the opportunities,
the duties and the responsibilities that
lie before them.
l.. U. @. Titus, who was to deliver the
opening address, being out of town, G.

the graduates and the audience very
pice impromptu talk. Aside from this

Miss Edith Monker, who graduated two

The music was excellent and the soy

structive and delivered in manner
credltable to the girls. Hester Hicks
entertalningly told the story of the
girls school lives, coupled With al ANU
singly prophetic view of the future of
themselves and their teachers twenty
years hence. The talent displayed by
each participant, the excellence of the
