Address by Rev. John A. Peake
Wednesday Evening
Mr.. President,
Ladies and Gentlemen

LduleS anu ueuJleillell-
1t affords me great pleasure to
be present this evening and to
have the honor of addressing this
representative concourse of my
fellow townsmen.
1t is needless for me to des-
cant upon the natural advantages
so lavishly bestowed by a benef-
ieent providence, and the steps
being taken to make these avail
able for our comfort and enrich
ment. You know better than |
can tell you.
But one thing | know is essen
tial to the full enjoyment of these
and that is the proper develop
ment of a true social conscious
ness, and everything that points
toward the attainment of such is
to be fostered.
The first postulate of such a
consciousness is that dictum that
is described in the very constitu-
ton of the race; it reads, "No
man liyeth to himself"
1t means that any man or
woman entrusted with a talent,
must, if they would reach their
highest development, give them
selves to the community life, and
in enriching that life, they doubly
enrich themselves. This, | take
it, is fundamental principle.
To hide our talent is to rob all
concerned.
The very idea Of a social con-
seriousness is Numerically oppos-
ed to that exaggerated individu-
alism which only seeks for spoil.
If | understand this occasion
correctly, it means an effort in
the direction of a social conscious
ness which will continually make
for the good of the community
at large.
1t is well to bear In mind that
the sole justification of amy So
cial machinery is the transmission
of social energy. To fail here is
to fail utterly, it is to keep the
engine running and have no con-
nection with the dynamo.
In order for the proper trans
mission of social energy, there
must be conference of the body
social. This is gloriously possible
IN homogeneous community like
our own, whereas such would
have but remote chance of sue
cess in one of the heterogeneous
centers of cosmopolitan life. Such
a social consciousness would eX-
ercise a compelling Influence.
1t was Lowell who said, MAN
kind is one in spirit and one in
stinct bears along round the
earth s electric circle the swift
note of right or wrong"
While we may, and ought to
resort to other methods, yet this
is the loadstone which will draw
to itself those who will unite with
and add to it's power; who will
catch the spirit and sing with us:
Let others praise the bright
Moselle,
Or of the Alpine valleys sing,
The lovely villages Of Tell,
Or Ind where spicy forests
spring,
OF bonnie Scotland S hills and
dales,
Of Venice, welded to the sea,
OF Cumberland s enchanted
wales,
My Mountain Homes the place
for me.

HIGH SCHOOL NOES
Agnes Bailey.

Eighteen High school girls took
their first lesson in basket ball
Monday evening after school.
they all enjoyed it immensely.
Tuesday morning Mr.. Hansen
entertained us by giving us a
few samples of a High school
pupils spelling. Cheap" was
spelled "c-h-e-e-p," ore" "o-a-r
and there were many worse ones.
Mr.. Hansen said in conclusion
that he felt it to be his duty to
teach us to spell and therefore
we would have a few lessons a.
long that line. We have not had
any yet but many Freshmen are
industriously studying web
ster' S Unabridged Dictionary"
Last Friday afternoon occurred
the first public basket ball game
and it was public only to teach
ers and pupils of the school. 1t
was announced that the game
would be played between the
Rubs' and the "Dubs" but
lnce we do not know one team
from the other, it is impossible
to give the result of their con-
test.
A large reading table has been
placed in the assembly room and
we fear it will be the trial of Mr..
Hansen's life to keep the maya
zines ON it and in proper order.
Wednesday and Thursday were
red letter days in our history.
No one was absent and no one
was tardy either day. If we con-
tinue thus, Mr.. Hansen will have
to honor his promise and give us
a half holiday. 1t is the first
time this year, we believe, when
the attendance has been perfect.
The promise "The last shall
be first and the first shall be
last" has been fulfilled. The
order Of our marching from the
assembly room has been revers-
ed so that the Seniors 60 first
instead of the Freshmen.
Plans are under way for the
public opening of the gymnasium
on Friday evening, February 10.
An excellent program will be
given, with basket ball games and
refreshments will be served. Eve
ryone interested in our school is
invited.
Thursday morning the Senior
English class enjoyed (?) de-
bate. The question was "Resol-
we'd: That two years of European
travel is of more benefit than
four years spent in college" The
debaters on the affirmative were
Agnes Bailey and Will White and
on the negative, August Gibson
and Dora Gibbs. 1t proved so
lengthy that it had to be cut
short and continued Friday. The
honorable judges were chosen from
the class as the debaters were
particularly anxious to shut out
all visitors. Reva Reynolds, Flor
ence Ticknor and Lyman Long
fellow acted as judges. Friday
the judges decided unan
in favor of the negative.

IS CRUSHED BY
4 Street CAR
Body of Man Run Over by
Fourth Avenue Line Motor
in Moline.
DISCOVERED ON THE TRACK
Too Late to Avert Accident, Neck and
Legs Are Broken-FecuIiar
Circumstances.

Carl NJ. Gordon of Moline was run
over and instantly kilIed at 1855 this
morning by a westbound Fourth ave
nue. car, the accident occurring at
Fourth avenue and Eighth street, Mo
line. Motorman Robert Stanley and
Conductor E s. Roys were in charge
of the car MotOrman Stanley and d
passenger who was on the front pla.-
form stated this morning that the car
was within 10 feet of the body of Cor
don. which was lying on the track, be-
fore either of them saw it.
TOO LATE TO STOP.
It was then too late TO stop the car.
although an attempt was made to do
so. Motorman Stanley dropped the
fender, but instead of picking the body
up, it merely turned it over.
Examination of the body disclosed
the fact that both legs had been frac-
tured and other injuries inflicted. How
Gordon came TO be on the track at that
time is not known. There were no
signs that he had been drinking. 1t is
possible that he fell there in a faint, or
he might even have been dead when
the car struck him.

Gordon was IS years Of age and was
employed a. the Deere & Co. plant in
