Miss CampbelPS Recital.

The piano recital given in Pythian
Hall, Wednesday afternoon by Miss Alice
M. Campbell of Lyndonville, was a most
enjoyable affair Miss Campbell played
her numbers in manner most credita-
BILE to herself and to her teacher, B. Frank
Harris. She proved herself to be good
student and to be possessed of much
more than average ability. The pro-
gram was varied one and the young
lady gave evidence of her talent and mu-
steal temperament in her rendition of the
different selections. We predict for her
great success in the continuance of her
studies. Miss Campbell was assisted by
Miss Maude E. Folensby. who gave
some charming songs in a most pleasing
manner. Miss Follensby shows very
marked progress as result of her recent
study in Boston.

Sunset Home Day." Saturday, the

those who had planned it. The day was
fine and brought out many visitors be-
tween the hours of three and six. Flow

Commencement week.
The Week of Weeks Ushered in with
Rain for Baccaulaureate.

The severe downpour Sunday after,
noon seriously affected the attendance al
the address to the graduating class, the
service being held 10 the South church
with the address by Rev, F. A. Poole,
pastor of the Congregational church at
Barre. Music was furnished by chorus
choir of 16 voices and included an
anthem and a trio by Mr.. and Mrs. B.
c. Peters and Harold 0. French. The
pulpit was effectively decorated in green
and white, the class colors. Rev. J. M.
Frost offered the invocation and prayer,
and the scriptures were read by Rev. Mr..
Butler.
Mr.. Poole took as his text the mar
ginal translation of John 1919, For
their sakes | consecrate myself" and
gave an eloquent address on the joys
and privileges of consecrated life. He
said it was a social motive which became
the inspiration and power of the most
redemptive life in human history and He
was at all times and on all occasions a
serviceable man. This is an age of social
service and the worlds work is being
done in great associations. 1t is an age
that demands the social motive and the
social spirit. The one who has this
motive will go forth to splendid deeds.
Personal vice is social injury. Men are
hurt and society is damaged. But the
man who possesses the spirit of service
can serve his fello wmen and give to his
day and generation the priceless gift Of
clean and wholesome life.
The address closed with the customary
remarks to the class and the benediction
pronounced by the speaker of the
evening.
Last evening at the South church the
Academy chorus of 125 voices gave a

Olympia mass convention of
Democrats of the Second District

secretary of state, as this was the
last day nominations could be filed
with that officer.
The certificate was filed about
4:30 p. m, and it was then learned
that the certificate of Judge Nc
Creole, the Republican candidate,
had not been filed.
This omission had been brought
to the attention of E. c. Finch,
chairman of the recent Republican
convention. Finch hurried here and
was met at the depot by Frank Cow
ings, Of Olympia, who had been one
of the secretaries of the meeting,
and the necessary certificate was

The People 5 Rostrum

While it is true that all citizens
are now Americans and hold the
Stars and Stripes in deepest rever-
ence, it is also true that our citi-
Zenship is made up of many who
have not lost all respect for their
former country. They are and al
ways will be loyal to America, but
they would like to see its officials
broad and liberal enough to recog-
nize that ordinary courtesy and re-
spect should be paid to the flags to
which they formerly bowed ale
glance.
It was the act of peevish chill
dren 1t was degrading to assert
justification for it in the recent visit
of the Japanese Commission. Let
us hope that the vision of the coun-
Gil has been cleared and that its
members may seek to attain mems

outline to the shadowy buildings.
1t was an impressive occasion. In
upon the mind was borne the con-
yiction that within that stately pile
OF buildings were housed thirteen
hundred souls. physically sound, but
mentally in shadow.
1t was gratifying to reflect that
mankind was doing its utmost to
provide for the bodily comforts of
those poor u~nfortunates, but mex
pressibly sad to recall that the light
of reason was denied them.
The night seemed to grow darker;
the stiffness more impressive. One
by one the lights in the buildings
went out, and the mind was free to
follow the dictates of fancy. 1t
was weirdly pathetic to contemplate
it all. l wondered how those poor,
people passed their nights. Whether
in peaceful slumber or amid the
turmoil of an unruly mind. The
buildings gave back no answer.
L stood lost in s~addening reverie,
when the scene took upon new
pathos. Out upon the night air
were borne the sweet and mex
pressibly mournful strains of a.
woman's voice. Clearly it rose and
fell with it's heart-racking cadences,
carrying to it's end the beautiful
hymn of Rest, Rest for the
Weary"
The hymn ended with a sob. The
stiffness was again unbroken, and |
continued on my way with sorrow
as my companion. SORROW.

INTEREST IN THE
GOVERNORS

terest. In his inaugural address, and again in his first annual
message, the Governor made many recommendations. In the two
messages he covered almost the entire field. Only the least i'm
portant of his suggestions became crystalized in legislation,
although bills were prepared and introduced in the Legislature to
carry them out. It was not Democratic, but Republican, oppo-
sition that blocked these measures. The next Legislature will be
Republican, and its majority in all probability will be even less
friendly to the gubernatorial recommendations than the two Legis-
latures that preceded it. Conscious of that fact, will the Governor
in his Forthcoming message abandon the principal subjects that
were prominent in his former messages or so modify them as to
recognize opposition by anticipation? Whatever is good and
right and wholesome cannot be made less so by opposition. The
best laws we have were passed only after much tribulation. And
the action or non,action of one Legislature is not an infalibe
index for the next. The courage of conviction is also an appre-
ciated quality in a State executive. What the Governor strongly
recommended in 1908 and 1909 must be equally good in 1910. A
good thing doesn't deteriorate by time or lose its virtue by oppo-
stion. So the interest is whether the Governor in this second an
nual message will be true to the views he enunciated in his two
previous official utterances.

PATRIOTISM.

OF all the virtues incident to hui
man character, none is more popu-
lar than patriotism. When love oil
country has the proper setting with
the red, white and blue lights play
ing on it, 1t is ever a scream. II
isn't always possible to tell whether
a man possesses eenuine patriotism
or an imitation which for ordinary
occasions is just as good. He who
is first on his feet when the orches-
ira teal off the first bars of The
Star Spaneled Banner is not necos-
sarily a 24-karat patriot. War Is
one of the show-downs whereby 1t
is possible. to know If a mans
patriotism is of the straight or bob
tailed variety. When e man enlists
in defense of his country and dies
on the field of battle his patriot
ism may be said to have stood the
acid test. There are other and less
spectacular ways of proving
patriotism. Prohibiting the display
of foreign flags on public buildings
is not one Of them.
