ASTRONOMERS BAFFLED.

Almost continuous cloudy skies
last Thursday and early Friday
morning prevented astronomers at
the Yerkes Observatory from Sc
curing any observations of the
comets phenomena. Hoping that
the sky would be clear, the scient-
lists remained at their posts in the
observatory until after daybreak.
Following close upon the Who'll
ly unexpected astronomical con-
dition that prevailed early Thurs
day morning-when the tail of
Halley's comet was plainly seen in
the East-astronomers at the Yer
kes' Observatory were further
bewildered by a startling appari-
ton across the face Of the sun at
noontime.
A broad spectrum of light, ex-
tending across and a considerable
distance to each side of the sun,
challenged the attention of the
vigilant, though weary. observers.
For the second time in a dozen
hours the little band of scientists
were aroused:to a point of much
excitement.

High School Records are MISSING and
Teachers are Not Able to Lo-

From present Indications 1t will be
necessary for every student in the
High School who desires q grade to
take an examination covering all the
work Of the year, for AL Of the teach
ers' class books and the permanent
records OF the work done during the
year are reported missing:
The class books in which the daily
grades are kept by the teachers and
the permanent record In which these
grades are entered are not to be
found. The books are kept in the
private desk Of the Superintendent Of
the Public Schools in his Office in the
Central School building and when
wanted this week were not there. The
unceasing efforts Of the corps Of high
school teachers during the past few
days has been Of no avail. From indi-
cations it is thought that some stu
dent has done away with them, and
IL they are not located It will cause
the students as we'll as the teachers a
great deal Of extra work going
through examinations for the whole
year.

At meeting of the city council last
week motion was made and carried
and an order placed for Duplex
pump. to be installed at the pump
house near the four new city wells,
and to be driven by 20-horse power
electric motor. With this equipment it
is calculated that 10 gallons of water
will be pumped into the standpipe
every minute. and at this rate 1t will
take little over eight hours to fill the
standpipe. The council expects to In
stall the new pump within the next
thirty days, and after the installation
of this new equipment there will be
no reason why the water supply in the
standpipe should not be sufficient to
meet the demands in tie of fire.

BAILEY'S ODE
TO PlElPLANT
After Whitening on RaIed Hay and
Other Breakfast Foods and
Dried Apples,
srARrLEs APPETITE
Pieplant Is to the Housewife What
the Spring Hat is to the Mil.
liner, q Creation.

NO matter what else may come and
go, rhubarb is here, and rhubarb pie
replaces goneness with filling SEN
sation that is one glad hallelujah and
a benson. An American table with
out rhubarb pie in the spring is as
barren as country fair without q
pumpkin, or church sociable with
out grass widow.
After man has wintered on excel
sior, baled hay and other breakfast
foods and dried apples, rhubarb pie
puts new vim and energy into him
like the bent pin to the anatomy Of
the adolescent pedagogue. It stirs
his innermost processes with joyous
melody and startles his palate into a
paean of praise. It is rhapsody, an
anthem, superb harmony. 1t per
meates his being with the geewhiz OF
the horseradish and the aroma OF
spring; it elevates in joy and makes
one feel like a yearling colt doing
didoes in green pastures. 1t insti-
gates ambition and induces hilarity;
1T gives the stomach a joyous tone
and tickles the gullet nightly; 1t
really ''hits the spot" with delightful
sensations.
Rhubarb pie is to the housewife
what the spring hat is to the milliner
"a creation and q phenomenon. II
the crust is just right and the in,

PROCLAMATION
Departments Commander Mike Nc.
Donald Issues Memorial and FLAG
Day Proclamation.
JUNE 18th WILL BE FLAG DAY.
Every One Requested to Display Flag
N on That Day.-An Object Lesson
to Those Coming After Us.

Des Moines, Iowa. May 6, 1910, Cen
eral Order No. 5, Series 19O9-10:
Memorial day The commander-in-
chief has in fitting terms called atten-
ton to the observance OF Memorial
day and Flag day. Memorial day is
q solemn day to the members OF the
Grand Army of the Republic; 1t be
comes more sacred as the years are
passing. The number Of graves is
increasing, while the number to OBJ
serve the day are decreasing. At this
time let us remember that as we
stand before some grave we not only
strew flowers there, but that in the
act there is symbolism of love, our
tender remembrance, and our frater-
nal appreciation for all the sacrifices
made and patriotism shown by all the
defenders Of our flag and nation. It
has become SO universal q custom for
posts to attend service in body on
the Sunday preceding Memorial day
that 1t hardly seems necessary to rec
ommend it. Lincoln's Gettysburg adj
dress should be read at Memorial day
exercises and q souvenir. copy is in
closed. To the veterans outside our
ranks | would say that for over forty
years this organization has been true
to. Its trust. to the memory Of our
comrades, and to you. We have min
istered to the widow and orphan as
we'll as to all needy comrades. May l
not appeal to you, in the name of that
comradeship, which, whether you will
or not, must bind US together in q
bond nothing but death can sever. I
appeal to you to join us and properly
wear the badge acknowledged the
world over to be one of honor. There
lis not a community in this depart
ment In which post exists but has
felt the quickening influence Of that
loyalty to home and country which
saved the union and made this re-
public world power among the ma
lions of the earth. Justly proud of
the achievements Of the past, devout-
~ thankful for the blessings vouch.
safed to us during these four decades,
we turn to our comrades Of the old
line who are still not of our men,
bership. and urgently remind them OF
duties long neglected, privileges and
associations not highly priced, and
press upon their attention the honor
of worthily wearing the badge of our
order.
Flag Daytime Ia has been adopt
led by the Grand Army of the Republic
as Flag day. Let every comrade who
is the possessor of a flag display it on
that day and request his friends and
neighbors to do the same. 1t should
be an object lesson to those coming
after US, and no harm can come from
intoxicating in the minds of the young
a spirit of devotion for the flag that
represents all that we are as nation,
and what it has cost to maintain it.
Hats of!
Along the streets there comes
"A blare of bugles, rufle of drums,
A flash of color beneath the sky!
Hats off!
The flag is passing by!"

COMMENCEMENT PRESENTS.
Denison Teacher In Letter to Des
Moines Capital Advocates the
Elimination OF Presents. Z

:
Elimination Of Presents.
Denison. May II.
Editor Capital:
When 1 finished my high school
course a little over ten years ago, the
members of the senior class thought
they were very fortunate, when they
received q few bouquets of flowers and
"a book or two as commencement pres
Ients. Within the last few years I
have had young friends graduate who
seemed not at all elated when they
received gold watches. solid silver
spoons, fans. parasols, pins, books,
and, improbable as 1t may seem, dia-
mond rings worth from $25 to 500.
| have been q high school teacher
and know what l am talking about
when l say that this course Of ex-
travagant giving is one Of the great
est menaces to modern education. l
have known boy to deliberately fail
to pass his final examinations because
he thought he could not have new
suit Of clothes to wear: to commence
ment. The fact that they were later
purchased for him did not help him
after he had failed. 4
4 I would not advocate doing away
with high school commencements-
far from it-but as long as the high
school in our land is a public school,
ought we not to give an equal chance
to all? The plan of giving presents
could at least be changed. 1t was
not many years ago that Christmas
trees were loaded down with family
presents; now you seldom see any
but simple gifts, given by the church,
on the trees, but who would dare to
say they are not as fondly loved as
their predecessors? Gifts. II they must
be given at commencement, should be
bestowed in the privacy Of the home
and the children should be warned
against undue boasting Of the gifts re-
ceived. But really, are we not carry
ing the matter too far away? AS one
lady remarked, not long ago, after
looking over the beautiful display OF
silver, china, jewelry, embroidery.
ETC.. one young girl had received:
why, l don't see what there is left
for you when you are married, you
have SO much now"
Our high schools have grown in one
sense to be miniature colleges. There
are class parties whose expenses are
covered by taxation. There are class
pins or rings, and the pupils who can.
not have them feel that they are con-
sidered disloyal. There is more than
one day included in the commence
ment exercises, and there must be the
different gowns for each. realize that
the problem is greater for the girl
than for the boy.
Something is wrong. The public
school belongs to all classes ana We
should make it and keep 1t available
to all. II you believe in all this other
lavishness for young people send them
to private school, but IL you prefer
to have them in the public school keep
them like public school children
should be- unselfish, generous, demo.
lcratic. A TEACHER.
