Address to Graduates.

Mr. Thompson spoke of the influence
OF New England. and especially OF
Maine. in-the history of the American
people. He emphasized effectiveness
as tie central or most obvious trait OF
the Yankee. Under the surface many
other qualities are found, whether we
study The type in the past or the<pres
ent, in New England or elsewhere
shrewd sense. ingenuity. civic pride,
humor, etc. The origin, Puritan.
ScotclI-ITish Quaker, reveals the source
of these qualities.
This source is now modified by the
influx of other peoples, and the So
called natives have penetrated far and
wide over the country and the world
There is therefore need of adaptation
Of Yankee ideals to suit modern condi-
tons. of loyalty to the best in Yankee
tradition. and of cxertion of the Yam
kee spirit in its highest sense, if the
prestige of New England is to be main
tanned. Here lies the way of great OPP
portunity for the boys and girls grad
uatins from schools like Cony High.

sentation of the diplomas by Rev A.

MUNICIPAL MOVIES"
Little Town of Haven. Kan, Starts 1
Good Idea.

Little Town Of Haven. KAN. Starts a
Good Idea.
Kansas has one of the few municipal
moving picture shows in the country.
1t In at Haven. a little town in Reno
county. IL there is another munich
pally owned moving picture show
house In the country the directors Of
the different film companies have no
knowledge Of 1t.
Haven was so small that there were
no moving picture shows. and only oc-
caslonally would one be given there
by a travelling company. Every one
in the little town enjoyed the pictures.
No one was willing to risk his money
in building moving picture house,
30 all the business men of the town
Clipped in enough to buy the machine,
and the show was started month ago.
1t IS a great success. The pictures
are shown In the town hall every
night. An admission fee Is charged to
pay the operator and the license on the
films, which are changed twice a week.
When the receipts are larger than the
expenses free shows are given until
the fund Is exhausted or additional
and special films are purchased and
the show is increased and kept going
with more pictures until the fund is
used up. The town built an airdome
theater. During the summer the pic.
ture shows were given in the open
air, and this winter they will return
to the town hall.
