Beginning with September 1, the food de-
partment will have used up all its ap-
preparation and as the legislature did not
provide any way for the department to

commissioner to discharge his force OF In

that all the work of the last three years

ley far below in small cornfield
driving primitive old-fashioned
diamond plow, with bride and har-
ness of simple make, I saw boy
in hickory shirt, copper jeans
pantaloons and coonskin cap. I'm
agine my contemplation of such a
scene, and as l looked a wagon was
vending it's way westward. The
boy looked longingly in the direc-
tion of the wagon. He was pro-
duct of nature, an unpublished dia-
mond. The boy had never seen a
Sunday school paper. He did not
know the name of the President, not
even the name of his own post office.
Here was provincialism in every
sense of the word. His world was
small. l watched the boy drop his
lines and lean against the plow
handles as he fingers upon the de-
parting wagon. He is stirred. He
wants to read-he wants to know
something of the world. l watch
the fortunes of the boy as he starts
to school and step by step until he
graduates and raises himself from
an humble beginning. Then l watch
him as he goes thru high school and
see him enter university. Two
years more and commencement, and
then he sees a mighty civilization
on the other side. Two years of the
old world and he reaches another

with you and 1, as we gaze upon

side of life are we going to look at
the world.

thousand years ago a mighty trav-

will this be the commencement of
a mighty work of education of a
higher life of the world to come.

SALUTATORY.

No more cordial invitation has
been extended by any graduating
class of the Union City High School
| than 1915 extends to you this even
ing.
Words fail us to express our ap-
probation to all those agencies
which have made this night possible.
We must, however, acknowledge a
debt of gratitude to the wisdom OF
the Board of Education in so ampli-
flying the school curriculum that
each may now graduate more nearly
in accordance with the God given
bent of his or her faculties.
We welcome parents, trustees,
city council, teachers, classmates
and all, for in harmony all these
shall bring the Union City High
School to state of perfection Sec
ond to none. Following time
honored and time tried custom 1915
chose it's class motto perfection. I"
Not that it was conceived to be at
tainable but for the inspiration and
hope that the guiding star gives to
the weary traveller pushing his way
to a desired goal. We know that
if we aim at it and persevere we
will come much nearer to it than
those whose inactivity and de-
spondency forces them to relinquish
it. Especially for efforts in our
school work is perfection an aim
none too high. Of course it would
be folly for anyone to think that
one might "know it ALL" With per-
fection as an aim, and by working
toward it with persistent effort, may
one not hope a greater reward than
comes to the one who is content
with an aim less ideal or divine?
Perfection in education, that is
knowing it all" is not possible, but
we may seek perfection in attain
ment in that much of acquisition
which life allows.
We do not fail to realize that
there is price set on any desire
that whatever is worth having is
worth striving for. So it is, when
we aim at perfection" 1t is of
priceless value and not to be bought
as silver and gold. 1t is not to be
in dollars and cents, but
rather in such terms as diligence
and self-denial
Diligence is the tool of perfect
work. If one has anticipations in
life he must also have diligence.
1--WE are what we are-we cannot
be truly other than ourselves" Each
of us to-day is where he or she has
truly desired to be. If we have de-
sired the trivial and frivolous pleas
ures OF life, it has put its impress
upon our attainment. There comes
a time in the life of the average
boy or girl when the desire is keen
for pleasure. We have been taught
and some have learned the lesson
that pleasure at most lasts but for
day, an hour and then its vaporous
form has vanished forever. This
nights honor as we'll as all other
similar honors takes more than the
one days prepared lesson. 1t takes
study. Each day must
see put forth our best in order to
enrich the life which God has given
US. We are all given alike the tall
ents and faculties which we will
need. 1t remains with us what we
