That brings us naturally to the
thought that very soon the members
of this graduating class will have an
opportunity to participate more or less
actively in public affairs as citizens Of
free republic. We enjoy . number
of rights and privileges. The laws af-
ford protection to our person, security
to our property and protects our repu-
tation against unjust attack
There was time in the history Of
the race when the great majority Of
the people were forced to follow the
occupation Of their fathers. No one
was permitted to aim higher than the
class to which he belonged. Caste and
privilege ruled the world. Not q ves-
tige Of these customs have survived
into the Goth century. Every one is
permitted to choose his own occupa-
tion. There il no divinity that hedges
above the profession Of the law, medi-
cine, architecture. engineering or any
Of the fine arts. Each one is perfect
ly free to follow the natural bent Of
his own mind.

L'Anse HIGH School.

L'Anse Opera House, beautifully
decorated in pink and green. gave itself
as fitting background and end to the
completion Of high school work by the
class Of 1914 Of the L'Anse high school.
The hall was packed as usual with .
happy throng, all friends Of the school
and students. who were present to see
the graduates acquit themselves with
honor to all connected with the institu-
ton.
The progam was excellently prepared
and excellently rendered; our only re-
gret is that we can not dwell at length
on the individual numbers.
The graduates are Misses Florence
Boivin. Rose Egerer, Alice Gamache,
Mae Crebassa, Anna Jacobsen, Ruth
Yhorsen, Adaline Paquet. and Richard
johnson and Joseph Trudeau. and we
wish them success in their coming
battle with the world.
The Junior reception was held yester-
day evening, Klingkamer's orchestra
furnishing the music for dancing.
In addressing the class, Senator w.
Frank James Of Hancock said:
patriots true were they. our fathers,
Building for the years to be;
Planning for their children's children
This fair land Of Liberty.
BY their tears and by their life-blood
Were most priceless treasures bought;
Shall we cherish what they left usf
Or despise and set Ut naught?
Christian patriots were the fathers,
Bowing TO their Lords commands,
With the high and holy purpose
This should be Immanuels land.
Freedom here to work and worship,
Meant not license to do wrong;
Little favor did they cherish
! For the gay and Goddess throng.
Now are come the days Of testing,
Mighty problems FIJI the land;
Mammon cries with voice insistent;
Pleasures lure on every hand;
And the Church Of God is weeping,
Weeping at her altar fires
For the recreant IONS and daughters,
Children Of the patriot sires.
oh. ye sons Of Light and Freedom.
Born to battle for the right,

When you should be strong to fight?
Hear you not the Captain calling,
| Calling for the brave and true?

Baraea High School.

Bara9a High NChOOl.
The first big public event to take
place in the new Star Of Wasa hall
at Baraga was the graduation exercises
Of the Class of 1914 Of the Baraga high
school.
The hall, beautifully decorated with
the class colors, was crowded to capacity
with patrons Of the school and parents,
and they listened with rapt enthusiasm
while the program was rendered.
To attempt to give complete account
of the exercises would tax our columns,
but let NJ say that the program was up
to the high standard Of all programs
Of the graduating classes Of Baraga.
The music by Klingkamer's orchestra
and local talent was excellent and the
graduates, Miss Eva Bulley, William
Brown and Harold Ibbottson, did honor
to themselves and their instructors.
Junior reception followed the pro-
gram, music being furnished for dane
ing by Klingkamer's orchestra.
In addressing the Glass of 1914, Hon.
p. H. O. Brien, Circuit Judge of the
Twelfth Judicial District, ssid:- "a
congratulate the members Of the
class Of 1914 upon the completion Of
their high school studies. They have
had the benefits afforded by the effic-
lent school system Of Michigan. No
other state has made more ample
provision for the education Of the masses
than the state of Michigan. From the
Kindergarten to the university every
assistance is given to the development
of the child's mind. 1t has required
close attention on the part Of the
graduates to reach the goal of their
ambition. trust that they all recognize
that the purpose of their education is
not to assist them in escaping hard
work. On the other hand they will be
more fortunate and happy in their
journey through life If their education
helps them to do better work.
Graduates are going forth into
the larger walks Of life at wonder
fully interesting period in the history
Of the world. Your intellectual advant-
ages will give yor an opportunity to be
Of great service to the community.
Your first duty, however, should be to
yourselves. This is the enlightened
selfishness that not only promoter the
individual welfare but it also an
important factor in promoting the public
welfare. II you are true to your high
est ideals you will never injure anyone.
This sentiment is beautifully expressed
by Shakespeare when he says 'sTt
thine own self be true and it must
follow az the night the day thou cansi
not then be false to any man." You'll
always be true TO your highest ideals

declared that the modern prison
makes an active attempt through the
separation of youthful Offenders from
hardened criminals; by discipline: by
training In cleanliness and industry:
through education in trade schools

On account of the diameter of the
harness horses that will be seen in
action at the coming Fairmont fair
there will be no running races. The
large stakes that will be paid to the
winners that will pace and trot
around the local oval has attracted
the highest class harness horses in
the business and the local manage
mcnt intends that the horscmen shall
have a track in condition for the
horses to race. In harness events the
track must be hard. When there are
running events the track must be
softer. a track that is in first class
condition for harness events is too
hard for the thoroughbreds and when
a track is In good condition for the
runners 1t is not fit for the other
lorse5c.
The stakes for each race at the 10.
cal fair is $1,000. Already there are
three times rs many horses entered
for these events rs have ever been
entered in any previous fair held

April Fool.

Probably you have wondered why there should be celebrated such day as April Fools day. It doesn't com memorate anything; it seems to be utterly ridiculous-but it isn't. It is in reality, the celebration of the pos session of laughter by the human race. Few things better deserve cele bration than laughter. If somebody should come to you and ask: How much will you take never to laugh again?" what would you say? Won derful gifts have been made to man. kind, but one of the finest and most indispensable is laughter So let us eel ebrate April Fools day. Let us play our kindly jokes. Let us bubble over with humor. But let us not forget to set aside one moment of soberness and of some solemnity to give thanks for the existence of laughter in the world.-The American Boy.

He stopped at Ciryne, leaving Sullivan. and visited with his mother few min utes before he left for the South Some irresistible power drew him toward the Garden of Eden.
 He landed once more on that beauti- full carpet of green.
 He drank once more from the crys- tai lake and started on his search.
 The bluish smoke from distant volcano attracted his attention. He neared the active giant, circled over it, then went toward the southeast, where a new marvel of nature called him.
 Inclosed by rugged mountains like the Garden of Eden, but a hundred times larger, stretched a green, fertile valley. From the height at which he was flying it looked like an enormous basin, with large cone of almost per feet shape looming high in the center. It was an ideal volcano, but instead of smoke steam was peuring from its mouth, and on it's sides and around the base several geysers spouted hun dreds of feet into the air.
 The valley evidently was inhabited, as 1t was highly cultivated, and towns and villages were seen. Napoleon flew toward the steaming giant and circled around it, lower and lower, until, by chance, liquid from one of the gey sers touched the Eagles wing.
 The aerodromone shuddered and the two wings came together with a shock and stuck. The machine fell down helplessly, like a crippled bird.
 It had come quickly, yet Napoleon had the presence of mind to turn the tail rudder to break the fall. He did not know whether heS was falling to his doom or not; still he shouted ex- citedly: 'I have found it!"
 The machine crashed into the marshy ground with terrific force. The man in 1t was hurled against the wall. He slid down into motionless heap. His eyes were closed, and the right side of his head was bleeding from contact with the sharp corner of the bench.
