Inc many, many things we lean--one

We translate and we sole-uatil the

"How terrible!' we say.
How many, many heartaches, signs
and tears one stands to gradu-

Think of the things you couldn't solve,
the times that you were late.
The day is here, the eve is come upon
the stage you stand;
A few short words, song, and your
diplomas in your hand;
A sheet of paper, white IN ishore is
all you have to show;
Was it worth all the long, long fight
a graduate thinks so.

The accident occurred as a trolley
car was going eastward on the Cen
tral railroad switch. Mr.. Petty was
going westward on the south side of
the trolley tracks, which is the wrong
side. He was compelled to take that
course, however, as trolley workmen
are repairing the frogs on each end
of the switch and passage is impossi-
BILE on the north side. While passing
the slowly-moving car Mr.. Petty had
to drive close to the car to avoid
striking passing rig. The bay
horse belonging to Petty g. Apple
gate bolted before it's driver realized
what had happened and he was hurl-
ed to the ground. The wagon, light
ly loaded with feed, was hurled
against the side OF the trolley car,
bending the front axle and partly de-
molishing wheel.
