Twice Around Rscetrack.

In an effort to hug the track the avia-

pounding as they had not done before

lap around the half mile course was
covered in So seconds and the second
in 80 seconds, making the distance in
one minute and so seconds. When it
is considered that he flew almost a
mile at each lap, an estimate of his
speed may be had.
Swinging around in a circle after
this test he gave the most thrilling

the engine still running at high speed.

Same.
AS the results Of the frosts OF the
past few mornings the wheat crop in
Garrett county, Maryland, is ruined,
according to the general report from
that section. The weather had been
unusually cold both day and night in
the glades and mountains and the
freeze has been very heavy. Many
Of the farmers are blowing up their
wheat and sowing b~uckwheat. The
fruit has practically been destroyed.
There has not been such a general de-
struction of crops since the memoir
able freeze of 1859. Farmers are very
much discouraged and say that under
the most favorable circumstances,
there can not be from this time on
more than a third of a crop. Here
and there a field remains untouched
by the cold, but these are few in num-
her.

we extend to them our grateful &C.
k~nowleog ment ard bsd them 4 kid
" farewell,
IN their struggle for the Improve
ment OF conditions. the Board Of Ed
ucaton has been nobly assisted by the
patrons 81 the school and the citizens
at large, without tAm cooperation Of
whom this much needed building
would have been impossible. In many
other ways, moreover. they have show
ed their warm interest In us and their
appreciation Of the fact that there Is
no development for individual or
country without education.
BY far che most important element
in our intimate life at the High School
has been the teachers. who have done
more thar well by us in %instructing
the large class which entered here
four years ago, and bearing with our
nGmberiess foliies and foibles, in try
ing TO make rough places smooth and
heavy burdens light, To them w say
farewell with grateful hearts.
Our schoolmates-those with whom
we have cheered and fought on the
diamond, on the gridiron, and other
~battlefelds for the honor Of the NJ. II.
S. with whom in the laboratory We
have made these potent messes which
smelled to high heaven. TO whom we
are bound by still closer ties. We
have e each others struggles and
.triumphs; we have come to know
each others strength and weakness.
Especially has this been true In our
senior year, for with so small a class.
the interest each feels in his fellows
is very great.
Our trials have been legion. It is
true, yet we look with pleasure upon
the many difficulties which we realize
furnished no barrier to our success.
We have mounted the hill of prepare
tory education, and now the respon-
sibility of increased labor rests upon
our shoulders, whether in pursuit of
education or in the wide fields OF bnsi-
ness.
We are no longer students in the
High School. However strong may be
our interest in time to come, II will
never he the interest we felt when
we went back and forth as members
Of the school we looked upon as our
own.
AS We go out in life We feel that
this is a commencement indeed and
that our success depends upon per.
sonal effort such as we have exerted
in our High School career, and that
wherever we are called We shall never
forget the standard of the orange and
black and the class Of 1910.

pleted and the acts by which our res
idence here will be known have been
finished.
If il be true that good wine needs

Ia good history, perhaps, needs no for

in this category it seems to revolve
upon me to make some valedictory re-

Much of our history could not have
been accomplished if it had not been
for certain outside influences, chief
among which is the Board of Educa-
tion, who by their untiring efforts for
the betterment of the schools, have
given us a far broader education than
it was heretofore possible to obtain.

Its weight is so supported by the hip
