bled, a line of march was formed to the elegant large dining room, where long table had been ar ranged in the center of the room. Place cards were at each plate. The table was decorated with vases of Easter lilies at each end. while in the center was a vase of tiger lilies tied with the high school colors black and yellow.
 Miss Marnette Wood opened the banquet with splendid speech, which met with hearty applause
 The speech in full follows:
 Fellow Alumni and Honored Guests-It is with very great pleas ure that as mistress of ceremonies greet you and welcome you to this our third annual banquet. A toast mistress. it is usually understood, should be a clever talker, who has at command a long list of jokes and who knows how 10 weave these to- gether with well chosen words into one pattern of delightful witticism. In view of these understood require ments, your committee of arrange ments put their heads together and decided that the hugest joke of the evening would be the selection of me as toastmistress; me who was never known to remember q jest or crack a joke without missing the whole point or putting it in the wrong place; a toastmistress who tells a jest as one of the Hot Springs club ladies con fesses she uses slang.
 She has only occasionally at
The Sentinel=record., 1914-06-20

tempted to repeat the slang words and phrases that she has heard used; and on one of these occasions, after hearing her son describe person as being alright except that he had wheels in his belfry,' she told a neighbor that person would be a good man if it wernt for the ma chinery in his steeple.'
 You would have laughed to see me all morning frantically turning the pages of Judge. Life and The Ladies Home Journal Whoever the toastmistress, however, the Hot Springs Alumni banquet could hardly be less than merry when you are the participants.
 "The purpose of the Alumni Asso- citation is a serious one. and there are some things we would say III great earnestness.
 That so many have gladly at tended this meeting and gladly ae- ceded to the request of the program committee for speeches and toasts is evidence of the interest being taken in the association itself; and for that interest of past students the high school has reason for great rejoicing. If we can succeed in doing for our high school as much as other alumni have done for their high schools and colleges, we shall have paid back much of the debt we owe her.
 ''The chiefest service that the asso- citation can render her. in my opin- ion. is to spread among the people of her town, her graduates and her

perhaps, but more important even than giving endowments and estab- fishing libraries.
 That we have made some advance in this direction, and that we are going to accomplish this end, fully believe, and call upon you 10 pledge me the Hot Springs high school; may her pupils ever be loyal and may she ever be worthy of their loyalty"
 Miss Wood introduced each of the following speakers in happy vein by telling a joke or giving some anus ing school experience about each in turn
 In the absence of Mir. Fred John son, Mrs Nita Barry Mallory re- sponded to the toast, Tn the Begin ming, with a very interesting ac- count of the first public school, which she stated was located near what is now the Rock Island depot,
 Mrs. Mallory stated that she be longed to the class of 1886. which finished the public school the year before the high school was organized
 The next speaker, Mir. Scott Wood responded for the class of 1898, and told some amusing jokes on various members.

Perhaps be cause of the lack of certain tradi- tions and the presence of others. One tradition that has assiduously been handed down from year to year is that of antagonism on the part of pupils toward teachers, the belief that the best sport among pupils is he who gets the better of his teachers at all times.
 That feeling is fast breaking down. many of the teachers think. perhaps because of the added zest i'll athletics. A child, you know, has to have some other interest than in mere books, and when he did not have basketball, football and base ball to think about, he exercised his ingenuity in schemes to annoy his teachers. If it be so. there is much better chance now of the cooperation of all parties concerned for the good of the whole school. Why cannot the same feeling of love and loyalty to- ward school be inspired in the high school pupil as in the college stu dent2 If the Alumni can increase this spirit of loyalty and enthusiasm for the high school, 1t will have ac. compllshed something less tangible

The handsome Majestic hotel was the scene of a merry event last even ing, the occasion being the annual Hot Springs High School Alumni As sociations banquet, which was at tended by about fifty members and presided over by Miss Marnette Wood, who made charming, gra- cious toastmistress.
 The general manager, MT. Harry Jones, and his valuable staff of em- ployes, contributed much to the sue cess of the evening by the faultless service rendered.

According to custom the Speaker,

or his deputy, as the case may be,
that This House has
been to the House of Peers, and has
heard the royal assent given to the
following acts"
When the deputy speaker came to
the Government of Ireland Act"
there were enthusiastic cheers. which
woe repeated in the case of the
Welsh Bill. The Unionists were
silent.
The Kings Speech.
The deputy speaker then took the
chair usually occupied by the chief
clerk. and read the Kings proroga-
ton speech to the House as follows:
Ny Lords and Gentlemen,
address you in circumstances
that call for action rather than for
speech.
After every endeavor had been
made by my Government to preserve
the peace of the world. was COM
peeled, in the assertion of treaty OBJ
legations deliberately set at nought,
and for the protection of the public
law of Europe and the vital interests
of my Empire, to go to war.
Ny navy and army have. with I'M
ceasing vigilance, courage and skill,
sustained in association with gallant
and faithful allies, a just and right
eous cause.
From every part of my Empire
there has been spontaneous and
enthusiastic rally to our common
flag.
Gentlemen of the House of Com
mons,
thank you for the liberality with
which you have met a great emer-
gency.
My Lords and Gentlemen,
We are fighting for worthy pur-
pose, and we shall not lay down our
arms until that purpose has been full
ly achieved.

''God save the King"
The customary proceedings fol-
lowing this is that members file past
the chair, shaking hands with it's &C.
cupant as they pass out Of the
House.
Something else happened this
time, and nothing more dramatic or
inspiring has ever marked the pro-
ceedings of the House of Commons.
Mr.. Will Crooks, the popular La
Dor member for Woolwich, in a voice
trembling with emotion, asked,
would it be in order, Mr.. deputy
speaker, to sing God Save the
King'?"
Before there was time for any re-
ply, the members sprang to their
feet, including the deputy-speaker
himself, and also Lord Edmund Tai
bot and Mr.. Pike. the two Chief I'm
ionist Whips, as well as about a doz-
en- members of their patry, and Joined
in the strains of the anthem. Strang-
ers in the galleries and newspaper
men in the press gallery also rose
and participated in the extraordinary
demonstration.
God Save England"
AS the strains of "God Save the
King" came to a close, Mr.. Crooks
called out, "God save Ireland"
whereupon Mr.. John Redmond re-
sponded instantly with the words,
"God save England"
Cheer Upon Cheer.
An indescribable scene followed.
Cheer upon cheer rang through the
chamber, and continued until the last
man had left the House. It is safe
to say that the echoes of these cheers
will be heard through every corner of
the British Empire and of the world
at large.

in his speech at the Convention, said
-'I assume most of you would be
glad to see no members there at all
at least a great many would-so
that Ireland would be concentrated
entirely on the Irish Parliament and
on Irish affairs. But there are 9TH

are glad that Ireland should have

lection has been taken in some quar-
ters to nominated senate. Speaking
quite freely for myself upon this
matter. personally believe in a nom

more democratic body than senate

three conditions may be fulfilled;
first, the nomination must be, not as
in the Dominion of Canada for life,
but for a short number of years;
secondly, a large proportion of the
senators ought to go out of office
every two or three years; and, third
ly, there should be satisfactory pro-
vision as to a deadlock between the
two Chambers. Now, these three
conditions are fulfilled in the Bill"
The representation of the Prov
inces in the Senate will be as fol-

ferred.
