Fortune smiles blandly upon the ar

Poff Co. and Designer J. Bauer.
The identity of the fortunate person or
persons is being kept a secret until this
afternoon. when the safe deposit boxes
containing the names of the various
designers will be opened. This pre-
caution was taken. as no less than 10
architects, firms and designers entered
the competition, which started several
months ago. In this way there was no
chance for any fayoritism being shown.
According TO prominent builders the
club broke a worlds record when it
induced so many noted architects to
compete for the privilege OF drawing
the plans for the handsome new club
house.

factor in the acceptance of the plans.

not to exceed 100000 for construction
expenses.

Why do so many women who do their
own work grow old before their timer
The weekly washing, they will tell
you, is responsible for their breaking down.
And they tell the absolute truth If they
wash in the old-fashioned way.
Continual rubbing on the washboard
is SO bad on the back.
And standing over steaming suds paves
the way for colds.
But the Fels-Naptha way is just as
different from the old way of washing as
Fels-Naptha is different from all other soaps.
Only cool or lukewarm water needed,
in winter or summer, and very little rubbing
required.
In nutshell Fels-Naptha does most of
the work itself without human assistance.
In using Fels-Naptha, follow the easy
directions printed on the red and green
wrapper.

"Just being happy Is tine thing to do:
Looking on the bright side rather
than the blue;
Sad or sunny musing
Is largely t. the choosing
And just being happy
Is brave work and trpe."
1t was with the thought Of future
helpfulness that We chose for our
motto-"Nop cOnfectps, sed initus"-
hoping that when the end did come
we might look back to this time as q
happy beginning.
Members OF the Board Of Education:
We wish TO thank you for the inter-
est which you have taken In our
school work aud for the advantages
which we have derived from the hand
some new building ia which we have
ended our high school days. II Is
with a feeling of gratitude In our
hearts that we now bid you farewell,
School mates, who must still pass
over the course which we have now
comprehensive have enjoyed our as
ISOLATION with you. The ties Of
friendship. which we have formed
among you, will never be broken as
we pass on to other fields.
Members Of the Faculty:-lt is with
a feeling OF sadness that we part with
you tonight In the short year that
some of you have been with US, you
have won place in our affections,
which can never be supplanted. We
wish to acknowledge the debt which
we owe to you and thank you for 80
uuseltishly devOting your time and
your energy to our interests.
To our Superintendent, who has
been with us during our enJire high
school course, we wish especially TO
express our sincerest thanks for the
many kind services he has rendered.
We only hope that we may some day
be able to repay you all for your kind
assistance but tonight we must say
goodbye.
Classmates;-Ws are together for
the last time. Our school days are
now over. We recognize more than
ever at this hour of parting the many
happy recollections which we owe to
our school-life together. Side by side
we have toiled, at first hardly think
ing of this night of parting: but as we
have climbed higher and higher, our
thoughts have centered on this one
thing alone, At last 1t has come-an
intermingling Of pleasure aud pain
the dream OF our youthful minds.
1t is we'll for US to step cautiously as
we pass into the busy din of this tu-
multuous world. Not all will be sun
shine nor all pain but life's sorrows
have beeu dwelt upon too much for us
to repeat them here. The thought OF
parting quickens every heart beat. but
with brave faces let us face the fu-
ture. / bid you all farewell.

Senior Class Commencement.

But the occasion OF deepest interest
was the senior class commencement
at the opera house on Friday night.
There was the usual large audience
and spirit Of expectancy as the pro.
gram opened. The first number was
the high school chorus, Union and
Liberty" Rev. w. w. LampOrt as
pastor Of the evening offered prayer in
behalf OF the class. Clark Haire gave
the salutatory address aud exhibited
the same pluck heretofore shown On
the athletic field. Miss Walsh
sang. and Irma Hurlbert took up the
arduous duties of the class poet and
made some very happy hits in refer
ence to her classmates. An instru-
mental solo by Madge Nicholas was
followed by the class GRAFTON, de-
livered by Bertha Shier. She chose
for her theme 1.-THE Tragedy of
Labor, and deprecated the evil condi-
tions found In too many fields of toll,
making special plea for the abolition
of child labor. After the Ladies'
Quartette land encore) came the class
history and prophecy, rendered by
Fay Nicholas-a most creditable
effort, full of taking pleasantries and
delivered with fine spirit.
Then came the address Of Judge
Willis Brown OF Salt Lake City, Utah.
The Judge chose for his theme The
Key to the Closed Door,"
The closed door is the one that
opens to successful and happy career
in life, and he gave some instances of
the closed door. What shall open
that door? Two things the Judge
spoke Of. One was law. Law he said
would not open the door. God had
tried law In the oden dispensation,
but in spite of law his people sinned
and suffered, and whole tribes were
lost. The one thing set over against
law was the spirit OF sacrifice mani
tested in the life and teachings of
Jesus. Sacrifice would open the door
To successful and happy life; and he
gave several instances illustrating his
point, closing with an earnest appeal
to the class TO ''tnd themselves" by
learning the art OF true sacrifice.
After the address came a selection
by the orchestra, the class song. and
the valedictory by Leto Stewart,
characterized by the same excellence
that marked the others. Miss Stew
art in behalf of the class called upon
Supt. Fuller to address them for few
moments, which he did 10 most feel
ing manner, reviewing the happy re-
lations they had sustained during the
four years spent together He also
spoke In high appreciation OF mem
bers OF the school board and other
friends who had helped TO make his

church, lectures, entertainments,
or ride on trains without suffer-

they do not derange the stomach

Valedictory
By Leto Stewart.

Ladies and Gentlemen:
Many times IL has been said that
young people ia our present positions
are ON the threshold OF life. In way
it Is true, Wa have finished one ex-
perience. We are now about to begin
new, different one. Hitherto we
have had the fostering care Of our par
ents or guardians; our teachers have
corrected our mistakes and have help
cd us constantly to ADVANCE and we
have been encouraged by the comfort
Ing words of friends. We have never
had TO bear the full weight Of respon-
sibility that would otherwise have
been cast upon our shoulders.
But now We are beginning some
thing new-we will be thrown upon
our own resources. Let us be prepar-
ed when we leave this hall tonight
to meet the various trials as they pre-
sent themselves to US. We cannot ex-
pect immediate and favorable results
for all Of our undertakings. We must
be ready for failures sometimes al
most beartbreaking, but let US ever
remember that
ITO have failed Is to have striven,
To have striven Is to have grown. VI
After all, is 1t not growth that we
want, both physical and mental? TIC
gain this, then, Is thought we must
ever bear in mind.
In few words. Edward Howard
Greggs has expressed, both simply
and fOrcefully. an ideal suited to the
use Of ali.
Just to be good: TO keep life free
from degrading elements; to make 1t
constantly helpful in little ways to
th0se who are touched by it; to keep
ones spirit always sweet and avoid all
manner Of petty anger and irritabilitY
that is an ideal as noble as 1t Is diff.
| ticult.
To seek to be true to our best in
sight, to express I'm personal life the
nOblest ideal we know, is the highest
possible service in the profession oil
social reconstruction"
Perhaps an easier one to follow
would be that given by Henry Ward
Beecher:
ITO be full of goodness, full OF
cheerfalness, full of sympathy, full OF
helpful hope, causes a man to carry
| blessings Of which he Is himself as
unconscious as lamp 10 Of its OWL
shining"
Success means sacrifice and il We
wish to proceed with rapid stride
along the highroad Of happiness, we
must not ignore those Ia the positions
from which we have risen. A glad
some smile. gentle touch. a pleasing
word, "kind hello" will often dc
much to cheer and comfort those who
perhaps, are not as fortunate as we;
those whose lives have been a weari
some struggle for existence and whose
hearts have been saddened by many a
bitter trial. If we can only make the
lives OF those about us shade hap
pier by our presence among them, il
by a kindly look or pleasant word we
can help some fellow comrade to look
more cheerfully on his tomorrow, then
only can we say that we have made

Letters From
the People
THE BAHAI MOVEMENT,


| Editor Advertiser: The followers Of
the Bahai teaching read with interest

of the movement which appeared in
your issue of Tuesday, November 80.
To those familiar with this teaching.
however, it was quite evident that the
author had had access only to certain
literature which dealt but imperfectlv
with the earliest phase of the teach
| ing. He was writing of the Babi
movement, which was the forerun-
ner of the Bahai movement, Civ.
! ing the impression to the read
er that the latter was subordinate to.
and an outgrowth from, the former;
whereas those who have kept in touch
with the matter know that the Bahai
| movement is the teaching to which the
Babi movement was but the door.
AS in the early days Christianity was
for a time misunderstood and supposed
to be a Jewish sect. so in the early
days of the present day movement, it
was misunderstood and supposed by
many to be sect of Islam. Such was
the view taken by Count de Gobineau
and Prof. E. G. Browne who. wrote
histories Of the Babi movement. By
them the spirit of the teaching was
not understood
As the writer of the said article
seems only to have had access to the
writings of these two early historians,
it is not surprising that he should have
incorporated in his article some of their
Lo
the teaching is pantheistic, that it
teaches of the absorption of the right
eous into the Godhead, and of the
anrihilation of the wicked.
These are misconceptions. As Chris
tianity spread and proved itself to
be for the whole world, so has the
Bahai movement proved itself uni
versal. No one, upon studying its
teachings, would recognize it as being
other than world movement The
fact that it is uniting in one faith
Christians, Jews, Moslems, Zoroaster-
ians, Buddhists and Brahmans proves
It's universally.
In the article in question mention
was made of Bahai "Mosqueh to be
erected in Chicago One of the writers

voted his life to this work during which
time he has lived, Travelled and taught
in many countries, both occidental and
oriental, yet this is the first time that
he has ever hear1 the term "Mosque'
applied to Bahai temple. The Bahais
have no priesthood, ritual nor congrega
tional worship. Their temples are for
reading, prayer and meditation. The
dependencies of the temple comprise
schools, hospitals, asylums and various
other charitable and philanthropic in
situations. Such a temple has recently
been erected in Russia.
