Death comes with a crawl, or comes
with a pounce,
And whether he's slow or spry,
1t isn't hi fact that you're dead that
counts,
But only, how did you die?
You have quit the harbor and are
out into the sea. You may find the
pillows run high, the tide may at
times almost overwhelm YOU. The
rough wheel of experience will seem
to almost crush your young lives; but
courage, duty, opportunity, unselfish-
ness must guide you. Cling to those
ideals that came to you in your school
days, your best and hottest hours,
and then the world will be better by
reason of your lives and your life's
work.
Remember that on the great brow
of the uture is written in letters of
light and gold, Courage, Duty, Op.
portunity and UnseHishness," and that
these are the elements of character
that must tbe prominent to win In

estimated ina the total appropria-
lions will reach the elormou sum
of $1,000, O26, 900, sale to be the larg-
est amount ever appropriated at a
single session. These appropriations
are for the fiscal ear beginning July

thing like an accurate estimate OF
the during the period of Il
months, but the members of the ap
preparation committee think they
will run somewhere between $500,
O0O, 900 and $500, 900, 900. This would
involve a deficit of between IT'S and
275 millions. Chairman Tawney warm
ed the house last week that the def
cit would reach $3.50, 00O, 600.
