patriotic duty of every citizen aid to nation
al sanitary defense. No man member of So
ciety is morally free to live unhygienicaly or to
acquire disease through lack of personal care.
Like sloveny soldier, the person who neglects
his health risks imparting to others his loose
morale or even transmitting disease to the whole
community.
Health is mans most valuable possession.
Without it he cannot hold or enjoy anything else
that falls to his lot that he wins in the battle
of life. Without health he is a burden to himself
and unless he possess marked compensatory
qualities, an encumbrance to his comrades.
The health making attitude of mind is repre-
sented as profitable talent and fortunately one
that can be acquired. Doctor Eager calls atten-
ton to the large available mass of literature on
health subjects-work, exercise, relaxation,
sleep, fresh air, proper temperatures food, cook
ing, cleanliness, etc., that should be judiciously
selected and studied. Every person must learn
for himself what peril threatens in his special
place in life.
Studies of health subjects in schools and
clubs it's exposition in public lectures, newspaper
articles, and bulletins, have the salutary tenden-
cy, it is stated to promote wholesome practices
as an habitual exercise and develop the precious
quality of automatically choosing in every action
and habit of life those courses that conduce tc
bodily soundness.

Impressive Memorial
Dates Back to Greeks

there he drew water from the fCunt-
ain, washed with his own hands the
columns of the tombs. rubbed them
afterward with perfumed essences,
and then killed the black bull upon
pile Of wood prepared for the purpose.
After having offered up prayers to
Jupiter and Mercury he invited the
valiant souls below to arise to their
feet and partake of the funeral liba-
tions. Then taking a cup in his hand,
having filled it with wine. he poured
it out ON the ground and said with a
loud voice, Il present this cup to those
who died for liberty" Many wept.
And thus every year they pronounc-
ed solemn panegyrics over the graves
of those who gave their lives for the
perpetuation Of such liberties as make
nations truly great On that day all
sports and merry-meking were abso-
lutely forbidden. 1t was the Sacred
day 1t should be so in our country.
These testimonials and customs, these
perpetual demonstrations of national
honor. of love and esteem for the un-
selfish and patriotic. enhanced the
merit Of personal valor They inspired
the spectators with courage and emu
lation and famed the fires of liberal
lied citizenship, without which no ma
ton, worthy to be called nationa

and customs. We have no slaves.
Greeks died for Greeks. Romans died
for Romans. Americans died for a
wider liberty-a liberty that touches
every shore and shields every man.
| Since 1776 Americans have fought and
died for liberty their ancestors could
not comprehend. They died upon the
alters Of intellectual liberty-for free
dom of body, freedom Of heart. mind
and soul. We no longer honor the
brave and the free in land of So
called freedom. with slaves carrying
the flag of liberty. We honor those
great heroes, who with both pen and

such ceremony in the history of the
children of the earth was ever filled
with SO much meaning to the human
race. In the past liberty and freedom
were provincial terms. 1t was Roman

the might, the power to exploit and

the term "liberty' has expanded. and
must expend still wider. To the old
! and narrow ideas Of liberty we have

means man, not class. With us the
ideal is, that liberty like the sun,

is our country. To do good is our
religion.

TEACHERS JUST WORK,
GRADE TEST PAPERS
AND HEAR LECTURES

The following from the Philadelphia
Bulletin has been submitted by local
teacher:
A school teacher is a person who
teaches things to people when they
are young. The teacher comes to
school at $50 o'clock, and when she
has gotten enough children for mess
in her room she teaches them reading,
writing, geography, grammar, arlthme-
tic, music, drawing, cooking, board
saving, crocheting, deep breathing
bird calls, scientific eating, patriotism,
plain and fancy bathing, forestry, civ
les and other sciences too numerous
to mention. When school is out she
stays behind with five or six OF her
worst scholars and tries to save the
state the job of reforming them later
on After that she hurrieS home to
make herself a new dress and snatch
a hasty supper before going back to
attend a lecture by an imported spec
ialist on the history of tribal law in
Patagonia, which the superintendent
thinks may give her some information
which may be useful in her school
work some day. A great many lectur-
ers roam the country proving on schoo!
teachers, and some of them are very
cruel talking to them so long that the
poor things have to sit I'D until morn
ing, when they get home to get their
test papers corrected. School teachers
salaries range from $50 month up
but not far enough up to make them
dizzy. On her salary the teacher must
dress nicely, buy herself things for her
work which the city is too poor to get
go to twenty-nine lectures and con
certs year, buy helpful books on ped
agogy, pay her way to district, county
and state institutes. and enjoy herself
during a three months vacation which
her salary takes every year. In addl-
ton, the teacher is supposed to hoard
away vast sums of money, so that
when she becomes too nervous and
cross to teach, at the age of fifty or
Whereabouts, she can retire and live
happily ever after on her income.

LARGE CROWD ATTENDS
THE GRADUATING EXERCISES
Good Program Given-PrOf. Lesher,
Emporia, the Speaker

The third annual commencement
exercises OF the Dickinson county
public schools. held in the Seelye
Tuesday afternoon, were attended
by 1I5 OF the 1877 graduates and q
large number of teachers, relatives
and friends of the graduates. An
excellent program was given. Pro-
lessor Lesher OF the Kansas State
Normal at Emporia made the ad-
dress upon the subject, What Has
My Education Done for Me?" He
emphasized the. point that education
is not to be pursued as a means OF
lodging work, but as means to-
ward the better accomplishment of
o chosen life work. Professor Lesh-
er urged the graduates to choose
early in life the vocation which best
suited them, and to pursue their
future education and life to win sue
cess in that vocation.
The program opened with good
music by the normal institute girls
glee club, directed by Miss Flora
Snider, in charge of the music at
the institute. The Rev. J7Willard
DeYoe offered the invocation. Car
roll Scott of Solomon pleased his
hearers with Q cornet solo.
A piano solo by Miss Helen
title OF q reading Miss Lena Gunsel-
man Of Green Ridge gave, and 1t
was enjoyed. A piano solo by Helen
Albertsmeyer Of Detroit was en-
joyed, and was followed by a read
ing "In Florida" with which Miss
Eunice Lady Of Chronister enter
tanned her audience. Robert Hare OF
Enterprise told Of "Caleb's Court
ship" and was we'll received. A
pleasing vocal solo by Ollie Mitsch
Of Woodbine was followed by Pro-
lessor Lesher's address. At its con-
clusion, Robert Hatfield of Union
played a piano solo excellently. The
presentation of diplomas was made
by Supt. w. o. Steen. who congrat-
ulated the students upon the COM
pletion Of their common school
courses and extended the best
wishes of the superintendent and
the teachers. Diplomas will be sent
to the graduates who could not at
tend. The entire program was we'll
arranged and excellently carried
out. Oscar D. Lantz of Hiawatha was
unable to attend. He was to have
taken part in the program.
The honor students receiving the
three highest averages in diploma
examinations in 1915 are: Claude
Butcher, d. s. & o., SO 2-5 Earl
