COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES

The class of 1912 of the Elko
county high school bid farewell to
their school day at Elko last night.
The young people made a pretty
picture when the curtain rose.
After the opening song and
invocation by Rev. E. H. Price,
Miss Frances Dore, the salutatorian
Of the class. extended hearty
welcome to all. She spoke without
hesitation and did her part we'll.
More music followed, after
which George H. Anderson, the
valedictorian, delivered the parting
address of the class. He spoke
5on the Soldiers of Peace in
clear, distinct tones and without
the usual stage fright. He made
a good impression and received a
hearty round of applause.
After more music, Prof. F. E..
Howard, principal of the high
school at Bishop. Califorins, deli
vered the address to the class.
Mr.. Howard was principal Of the
county nigh school when the class
of 1912 entered as freshmen, and
IL was by invitation of the class
that he was present. His subject
was the Golden Age" He describ-
I'd the golden ages of the past and
showed wherein they failed to. &C.
complish all that should have been
done for the bettermenl of the
world. Today, he said, was golden
age for the young. Much was yet
to be learned and many problems
were yet to be solved. He urged
the class to take up their work in
earnest and do their best to make
their life success. Though all
his talk ran the thought "Search
for the Truth"
The address contained many
thoughts that the class of 1912
should carry with them in their
struggles with the world. After
the address came more m usic and
the presentation of diplomas.
When the latter was finished the
closing song of the class followed.
At the close of the exercises,
the graduates, under classmen and
few friends went to the Elko
Hotel and passed a few hours in
eating and listening to short
speeches from the graduates and
others. The time passed pleasant.
ly and the class of 1912 was given a
good send-off.

TO SAVE THE BISON

The American Bison Society,
which has its headquarters at the
Geological Gardens in New York
City, has offered to stock the pro-
posed Wind Cave National Bison
Range in South Dakota with a
nucleus hard as soon as the range
is established by Congress. 1t is
believed that the bill now before
that body for the creation Of that
range will pass. That society.
which recently gave some of these
naimals to national ranges in
Montana and Oklahoma is doing a
good work in the endeavor to pre-
vent this largest of the game
MAMMALS of the United States from
extinction, says the st Loui,
Globe-Democrat.
To anybody who saw the region
west of the Missouri forty years
ago or even thirty-five years ago
the thought of the extinction of
the buffalo within the lifetime OF
anybody then extant would have
been deemed absurd. During the
Cos and 70s Of the recent century
that animal was almost as numer-
Gus on the plains of western
Kansas. Colorado, Nebraska and
Montana as it was when Lewis and
Clark passed through that region.
For several years after the meet
ing of the rails" near Ogden,
Utah, in 1869, that first of the
trans-continental roads often had
its trains DELAYED for hours at a
time by vast droves Of buffaloes
crossing the track.
Today only 1900. buffaloes are
left in the United States of the
millions which roamed the plains
of the trans=Mississippi forty years
aga. All of these, except about q
dozen which run wild in Wyoming
are in captivity. Canada has
probably as many as the United
States, but she has more outside of
the ranges and private collections.
In the north western part Of the
Province of Mackenzie a large
herd, estimated to number about
$50 are in wild state. AS the
buffalo increases rapidly under
favorable conditions there is still
hope that the 1900 now in the
country may preserve the race
from complete humiliation.

no contagious disease in town.
There are cases of whonping cough
in Carlin and perhaps in other
places in the county.
We understand that on account
of these reports people around the
county are knocking the Fourth OF
July celebration. If diptheria OF
other contagious diseases were
raging here, we would not hesitate
to inform the people of the county
of that fact, whether or not it
kept people from celebrating the

HIGH SCHOOL AND DANCING
