CREDIT TO WHOM CREDIT is
DUE.

1t is but simple justice to say that
the President of the National Farm
ers Union, Mr.. G. S. Barrett in this
great crisis has done more than any
other one man to try to get Congress
and President Wilson to come to the
rescue of the tobacco and cotton far
mers. He worked night and day to
effect this result and while his efforts
for the moment were fruitless, yet he
planted seeds that will come up in
the future and will go long way to-
ward moving the great mass along
lines consistent with their economic
interests. We take off our hats to
Mr.. Barrett and express the hope
that he may with undated vigor con-
tinue the fight he has started until
the rights Of the great masses are
recognized even at Washington. Mr.
Barrett did not carry his measure
through, but it was not his fault.
1t was because the farmers had
elected men to represent them who
did not believe that the great powers
of the Government for service should
be utilized for the benefit of the plain
people. Mr.. Barrett will never sue
coed so long as you, Mr.. Farmer,
continue to send people to Washing
ton who cannot hear the call of the
masses when in need of that pro-
lection and service which the gov
eminent alone can give. 1t is plain
then that it is your manifest duty
to change the character Of your rep
resentative sending those who be-
lieve in helping you. When this is
done, Mr. Barrett will meet quite a
different kind of reception and his
efforts in your behalf will become
more effective. 1t is all up to you.
What are you going to do about it?

WHO CAN ANSWER THIS?

Dear Mr.. Watson: 1 want your
opinion on what I think is a very
important matter to all the people
of Georgia. What does the Public
School curriculum of Georgia cover?
That is, how much Arithmetic, how
much Grammar, and how much of
the other branches mentioned in the
Code is to be taught in the Public
Schools of this State free?
A Concrete Case.
A boy thirteen years old. His
studies are: Arithmetic, English,
Grammar, Spelling, U. S. History,
and Physiology. His books are all
very mentary-almost primary in
their scope. He will not have a real
practical knowledge of these
branches when he has finished these
books. He is now going to a school
that is getting the Public School
funds of the State. Before this
school would enter his name as a
pupil, he was forced to pay $500
(six weeks tuition) in advance. Did
this school have the legal right to de-
mand and collect this money?
Your opinion will be very much
appreciated.
Yours truly,
GEORGIAN.

A Protest in Plain Words.

Washington, Oct. 10.-Congress-
man Thomas S. Butler, who repre-
sents a Pennsylvania constituency
largely of the Quaker faith, has
made public letter of protest from
Joseph c.. Sharpless of London
Grove, Pa, against the Democratic
special tax bill. Mr.. Sharpless is
Quaker of high standing, independ-
ent in his politics, and a man whose
opinions are always sought and usu-
ally adopted by his neighbors and
acquaintance.
Mr.. Sharpless voiced his feelings
against the special tax bill and the
language:
Although at this late date it may
be of little use, l wish to express to
thee my disapprobation of the tax
on gasoline. 1t is one of our neces-
stiles and to tax this article is out
rageous. When l say this l voice the
sentiment of thy constituency in
Chester County. There is not one
farmer who does not own gasoline
engine, and one of my neighbors
when filling his silo used twenty gal
Ions of gasoline a day. The admin
is tration wanted to reduce the high
cost of living, and took the tariff off
the things the farmers raise. Now
for them to tax gasoline is, believe,
a sure death blow to such an admin
istration.
IF thee can do anything to stop
this, please use thy influence in that
way, and by so doing thee will re-
ceive the applause of thy constitu-
ents'
In expressing his entire approval
of the protest Mr.. Butler wrote to
his Quaker friend:
"The reasoning found in thy let
ter as we'll as the conclusion which
thee reaches seem to me about the
prevailing sentiment against this
revenue measure. l would like very
much to make thy letter public un-
less thee Objects
please make use of my letter as
thee sees fit" replied Mr.. Sharpless.
publish it on the house tops if
thee desire, as thy people are up in
arms against such legislation.

varications 1 have never seen
it's equal.
You speak of the courage with
which Congress has handled the va
r1ous matters which have been
brought before it.
If there has ever been a farce
comedy acted, that farce comedy has
been acted at Washington during the
last eighteen months. The Tariff
has always been bugaboo with
which to fool the voters, and the
tariff measures enacted by the pres
ent Congress is such farce it's
own daddy would not recognize it,
and the reduction in the cost of liv-
ing caused everything to go soaring
upward in prices. Of course you
must have some subterfuge by which
you can escape the just criticism
which you deserve, and you
cite us to the war in Europe If our
financial and commercial conditions
were properly adjusted by loans for
the benefit of the masses and not
for the national bankers and bond
holders, the present European war
would not be causing the depres-
sion which at this time is over
our entire country. You and your
gang of political prostitutes repu-
dated the needs and demands of the
people, and enacted legislation that
has put the neck of the government
under the heel of high finance.
Where is your Rural Credits to which
the party was pledged? 1t has gone
soaring into the ethereal heights of
Regional Banks, an act which has
fastened upon this Government the
most damnable piece of legislation
ever enacted into law You can
boast of your achievements, but
your boast is as sounding brass and
tinkling cymbal' to the common peo-
pie who feel the pangs of hunger
gnawing at their very vitals: but, to
the bloated bondholder, your words
are 'as apples of gold in pictures of
silver
Why is there so much distress in
this fair Southland today? 1t is be-
cause you and your gang refuse to
render any aid to a people who have
always worshipped at the shrine of
democracy.
Why is business paraIyzed
throughout the South? 1t is. because
a foreign war has closed the ports
against one of the most necessary
commodities, and you and your gang
refuse to aid the people in a legiti-
mate way.
If you and your gang knew that
your political scalp depended upon
proper recognition of the cotton
growing States, you would have en-
acted some measure six weeks ago by
which the wheels of commerce
would have been running today, and
thousands of men, who are now out
of employment, would have been
making an honest living.
You speak of justice having been
done the laborer If refusing to aid
a section of country which is in the
death throes of commercial abortion,
(and that section of country has
more men seeking employment than
in it's entire past -history,) is recog-
nizing labor, then your boast is
timely and should be we'll taken.
You claim that the Democratic
Party is the country's hope. If the
present administration is the hope
of the country, then had the COM
mon people of this nation better go
into the jungles of Africa, and sub
NIT to the conventionalities of Hot
tentot civilization.
If the policies of you and your
gang are pursued much longer, none
but special privileged monopolists
can hope to exist; but I pray the
Lord to deliver us from you and

Old Man Dropped Dead.

Frederick Calf, an inmate o1
the County farm for the past
two years. dropped dead Tuesday
morning about ten O'Clock while
walking to Golden. He became
dissatisfied at the farm and de-
cided to travel, and packing an
old leather bag with all his be-
longings, consisting of 2 razors,
handkerchief, pair of buckskin
mittens, pair of cotton gloves,
needles, thread, soap, etc, he
started out. He stopped at a
farm house to get a drink and
the occupants noticing that he
was very pale and tired, urged
him to rest, but he insisted that
he must get on to Golden. He
managed to get as far as Frank
Morris place and fell dead. Cor
oner Burton was notified and
brought the body to Arvada.
Having no known relatives it
was buried at the county's ex-
pense Wednesday.

the curtain fell on the most i'm
posing graduation exercises ever
held in Arvada High School.
The affair reflects great credit
upon Mr.. Drake and his corps of
Of able assistants. Much is due to
the pupils themselves, and also
to Prof. johnson who was re.
sponsibIe for the musical pro-
ductions which interspcrsed the
literary numbers on the program
and to Prof. Hogan who drilled
the young orators who quilted
themselves so ably.

Found Stolen Car

Frank N. Felch at last found
his Ford car which was stolen
three weeks ago in front of the
Denham Theatre, Wednesday of
this week. 1t was standing in
the road near Bennett, as miles
from Denver, and had a Wyom-
ing tag on it. Here it had stood
for three weeks, and according
to nearby farmers it had been
abandoned by young man about
% years old, accompanied by a
young lady. Having had a break
down and being unable to fix il,
the couple are said to have ridden
back to town on a wagon. Some
one reported the car to the Den
yer Motor Club and their detec-
tives took Mr.. Felch out We'd
nesday to identify it. They
attempted to tow it home, but on
account of bad roads had to
abandon it. Mr.. Felch took his
team and went for il today.

High School, Commencement Exercises
Reflect Credit to Pupils and Faculty

Baptist church before a packed
house, and the writer is non
plussed at the task of putting in
to print anything that would
half express the true merit of
this entertainment and the credit
that is due our class of nineteen
splendid young men and women
who have bid farewell to the old
school, and also to the faculty
that has brought them thus far
on their journey of educational
life.
To make special mention of
each performance in a compre-
hensive manner would not only
tax the space of this paper be-
yond reasonable bounds, but
would also tax our descriptive
powers far beyond our vocabu-
larry.
Considering these perform
ances from the various angles
embraced in the program a critic
is put sorely to the test if he at
tempts to praise one above
another, because all were so far
above the average performance
of this character.
When we say that the audience
sat spell bound, as it were through
fourteen orations and five other
numbers of original effort, inter-
spersed with eight musical pro-
ductions it may seem somewhat
an evasion of the truth, and yet
if there are any who were over
come with fatigue or who were
in any way disappointed we have
yet to hear of it.
The only disappointments we
have heard is from those who did
not receive tickets of admission,
and these are numerous. Whether
or not there is room for criticism
of the faculty, graduates or school
board on this score the fact re-
mains that they all were Crap
pling with a difficult problem,
that of seating five or six hun
dred people in a house with a ca
pacity of less than three. And
here is another wedge in favor
of new High school, with an
auditorium sufficient to meet the
demands on such an occasion.
As the class took its position
on the front of the platform,
coming from the choir room at
the rear, the audience gave them
a most cordial ovation.
Elder Charles Benight of the
Baptist church pronounced the
invocation while the audience
stood with bowed heads. Wal
ter r. James then stepped out
upon the platform and Prof.
johnson gave the signal for the
class and entire school to rise
and respond in chorus to the OBJ
ligato solo, which was rendered
in the highly pleasing manner of
Mr.. James and Prof. Johnson's
classical interpretations.
Each member of the class re-
sponded promptly to their num-
bers without announcements.
Hal Ragland gave a salutatory
address entitled The Injustice
of the Hay-Pauncefote Treaty
to America" which he handled
in an able manner. Miss Myrtle
Griffith then gave the class his
tory which was delivered without
reference to notes and therefore
the more interesting. Miss Sal.
die Smith gave an oratiOn on
titled Personal Responsibility"
in which many beautiful and or.
iginal sentiments were expressed.
Frank Bayer responded with an
able oration on World Peace.
He waded into his subject in a
masterful way that bespeaks a
future for him on the orators S
platform.
Fred Britton gave the history
of Samuel G. Howe which
proved both instructive and en-

difficult selection but very beau
tifully rendered.
Miss Winnie Wheeler gave a
a most pleasing oration entitled
Influence of an IdeaP'. Her
manner was self confident and
her delivery perfect. Miss Mar
guerite Rodda's oration Heroes
of Science" showed a careful
study of the subject and paid a
glowing tribute to the men who
have sacrificed their liberty and
even their lives for the cause
they they had espoused in order
that humanity might be benefit
ted thereby.
The Girls quartet was excep-
tionally fine, as their perform
ances always are.
John E. Olson's oration on
Constitutional Basis of Citizen
ship" was very cleverly handled
and advanced many good points
to be remembered.
Miss Perle Fuckers Grafton on
Ethical value of music" threw
much light on that subject.
Arthur APPEL had for his SUBJ
ject THE value Of an Ideal" in
which he laid down many sound
principles which if followed close
ly would no doubt bring about
greater successes in life.
The reading The Ride of Jen-
ME Mcneil" by Miss Marguerite
Mollet was beautifully rendered
and greatly enjoyed.
Miss Hattie Weaver responded
to her number with a solo In
Loves Garden" by Sanderson,
in most delightful and easy
manner.
The grafton Opportunity" by
Miss Eva Miller was full of good
pointers for those who are be-
ginning and even those who are
we'll along on the journey of life.
Emmerson Wells had for his
subject Luther Burbank's In
provement Of Plant Life" and re-
vealed many interesting things
about this wonderful genius.
Cicle Greene gave an Grafton
entitled THE Mexican Prob
lem," while his auditors may not
all have agreed with him on the
political phases Of it they were
impressed with his easy manner
of presenting his subject.
Charles McCory gave a very
classy grafton on The Electrical
Age" in which he showed much
research of the subject and re-
vealed great possibilities for
Charles as an orator.
Miss Fern Van Dyke gave a
very unique class prophecy which
is supposed to have emanated
from an Indian fortune teller up
in some canon. The members of
the 1914 class will be pretty bad
ly scattered if the prophecies,
which originated in Miss Van
Dykes humorous mind come
true.
Wesley Moreland as Valedicto-
rian gave a most classical GRAFTON
on THE meaning of an Educa.
ton" The thoughts and senti-
ments expressed were beautiful
and most appropriate for this
number on the program. The
audience was most cordial to the
young man who carried the high
est honors on his shoulders and
AS soon as he made his way to
the platform he was given a
grand ovation.
At the conclusion of the pro-
gram President Minges present
ed the diplomas with appropriate
remarks full of good advice and
best wishes. The audience ap.
pIaudcd each graduate as he or
she leceivcd their "shcepskin." "
and after this ceremony flowers

many graduates. Rev. Cooper

A Canning Factory
Is Almost Assured

As announced, the Commercial
club held a special meeting Mon
day evening to consider the mat.
ter of locating a canning factory
here at Arvada. Not a very
large attendance was had but
those who were there became
enthusiastic right away when
John Tracy, representing A. F.
Wentworth of Norfolk, Neb..
who owns canning factories there
and also in Indiana, told the
Commercial club that they want
to come to Arvada and that they
are not asking u bonus. but they
want Arvada's good will and the
agreement with the farmers for
them to put in about 1000 acres
of peas next year. The plant at
Norfolk, Nebraska, he said en-.
ployed 500 people last year not
withstanding the drouth which
cut the crop to about GO per cent.
and the amount Of peas canned
was about 10000 cases. Tho
pea raising proposition seems q
good one to the farmer, az the
average gross income from an
acre of ground is said to be about
$3.50.
This does not incumber the
ground for the whole year either
as the crop is all in by July 4th
or nearly so, and celery or other
late crops might be grown. An
other good argument in favor of
peas is that they enrich the soil,
and are much easier to raise than
wheat. They are drilled In just
the same, are cut with a mower
and raked up the same as hay,
but instead of being stacked are
put through what is called a viner.
or threshing machine. and the
peas hulled. The vines and pods
are then good for feed. Peas,
however, are not the only thing
that will be canned, as fruit, cab.
bage, corn, asparagus, apples,
beans and tomatoes will also be
taken care of. This being the
case, a canning factory's value
in community of this kind 10 at
once apparent and everyone
should boost for it.
Mr.. Tracey stated that the
company. if the farmers would
promise them the acreage. which
must be increased to the final
limit of acreage in this locality
eventually, would start with
about a $1,000 factory and In.
crease as the acreage Increased.
The Enterprise some months
ago suggested the need of a can.
, ming factory for this community
and now it begins to look like
there was hope of realizing our
dream. Let everybody get be.
hind this movement and boost 10
along, as that is what will help
every farmer and every merchant
: and business man in this section
more than any other one thing.
1t is therefore important that
every farmer and every business
man should attend the meeting
to be held in the Aryada City
hall next Monday evening, when
Mr.. Quear, the business manager
Of the Norfolk institution will be
present and answer all questions
and give all necessary informa.
