that If by any possibility these esti-

ADVICE TO
GRADUATES

Roswell's High school commence
ment season was formally opened last
night, when DR.. w. c. Alexander. pas
tor of the First Presbyterian church,
delivered the ibaccalaureate address to
the graduating class. The service was
held at the Christian church and the
building was packed to the doors for
the event, and all other churches hav-
ing dispensed with service at this
time in honor of the event.
A song service with two anthems
by the choir served as an opening to
the meetings, after which Rev. c. F.
Lucas, of the NJ. E. church. led in
prayer. Miss Morrow sang a sweet
solo and these numbers completed the
Introductory part of the program.
DR.. Alexander's address was full
of good sound judgment and was bas-
ed On lines of usefulness and practi-
cability. The kernel of his remarks
was that the graduates should not
drop their studies and the use of
books upon leaving the High school.
i5ut should continue in their work OF
cleaning knowledge. whether they en-
tered college or went at once into lin
eS of material work. The address was
well received and enjoyed by all mem
bers of the congregation, as well as
by the graduates.

time he is figuring on plans for a mag
nificent $25, 900 residence for his SON

Hams had no intention of killing An
