But SaIina only blushed and looked
embarrassed and tried to laugh away
the matter. All the same from that
day forward she set about making
the rude and humble home as pre-
sentable as possible.
One day Royd came to the place.
He found Salina neat and trim Of
garb, sweet and glad Of spirit The
house was neat as a pin. She
cooked him a meal that made him
long for more. Barren as the land
was, she had raised some vegetables
and had four COWS and sold the milk
at a large profit to labOrers working
along the river, and chickens galore.
You are a smart, capable wOm-
an" declared ROyd with sincerity.
ct is a shame they sould you this
wretched piece of desert land, when
there are desirable sites further up
the stream"
And then a thoughtful, calculating
expression came into the face of
Royd. He took a scientific survey Of
the barren 40 acres. He crossed it
to where at its inner edge the ground
depressed to the bed of a purtling
stream that wound in and out and
ten miles farther on joined the Pearl
river.
"SBe's got it," he cried abruptly,
and his eyes sparkled at the sugges-
ton, of a mighty idea.

vincedly.
There is a way out. Will you
help me find it?"
Salina fiuttered. She half fan

and there, but he did not. He was

why, certainly" agreed Salina.
"And if any one asks you your
price, say 100000"

Three businesslike men announc-.

BoRAH ARousEs SENATE.

A Washington dispatch says that
Senator Borah delivered in the SEN
ate on Monday what was regarded
by other senators as his greatest
speech since he has been a member
of that body. The senator strongly
urged the upbuilding of the navy,
and contended that if our navy is
adequate there will be no necessity
for a large and expensive Land force
"If the United States is to enjoy
the blessings of peace" he urged,
I'VE must convince the world that
We are prepared for war. Let us
serve notice on the nations of the
world that while we love peace and
covet friendly relations with them,
our friendship cannot be purchased
at the price of American citizen
ship"
1t was the first speech in months
that has commanded the attention
of the senate, and at its conclusion
Senator Borah was overwhelmed
with congratulations. Senator Lodge
said the speech reminded him of
old times, when the senate was &C
customed to hearing real oratory.
Senator Borah said the navy at
fords the safest and most certain
protection in the way of prepared
ness that we can have. With an eff
ficient navy, large standing army,
which is really a menace to free
institutions, becomes unnecessary,
he said. The most effective part of
the speech was a review of the eff
feet of unpreparedness among free
governments of the past, showing
how republics or democracies had
suffered because of utter inability,
in the hour of peril to protect them
selves against encroachment.

In protest against the sizes of un-
derwear with which they had been
supplied by the government = sizes
being 48 and 52-three hundred sold
iers at Des Moines, Iowa, clad in
those garments alone, with dishraes
flying from poles, to represent flags,
paraded before the headquarters of
their commanding officer. While the
affair will be looked upon as dis
graceful, the authorities, who sent
out such clothing for soldiers viii
come in for their share of the CEN
sure, for having shown such care
lessness or incompetency in the
matter. Men who have enlisted for
the defense of their country are GER
tainly entitled to some consideration
in the matter of the kind of cloth
ing they are compelled to wear. 1t
Is not likely that the officer before
whom they paraded was wearing un-
derclothing several times too large
for him.

to the front in Mexican affairs some
man whose craftsmanship Is con
siderably above that of the present
leader, who would have been con-

that were said by the de facto gov.

enough patriotism in the minds of
the citizens to get them into the
army:
June 18th. War declared by Mex

points ON the border, heavy casual
ties on the part of the Americans.
June 18th. Fighting going on
along the border and the towns of

to repel the invaders. (No enlist

died out and it is generally said
that the u S. does not care to go

all of the Americans at Mochis have
gone aboard the war vessels at To

Last year. and the year before, for

the Quakers. During the two years
that Muncie and Richmond have been
rivals on the polo floor Muncie has
won greater percentage of games.
Muncie seemingly has held the

Indications point to the largest

Ohio numbers her sons and daugh-
ters in California by the thousands.
Like all true Buckeyes they are very
proud of their native state. The old
home state is not forgotten. They
have Ohio Societies in nearly every
village and hamlet. Some of these
meet annually or semi-annually with
dinner, etc., but most of them meet
monthly. The largest one, the Ohio
Society of Los Angeles, has over fif-
teen hundred paid-up members.
There is general organization
known as "The Federation of Ohio
Societies of Southern California" It's
membership runs to many thousands.
Judge William A. Spill, of Pasadena,
is President and Hon. Isaac Springer,
of Los Angeles, is Secretary. Each
year this Federation holds an annual
"Ohio Picnic" Fifteen to twenty
thousand Buckeyes enjoy these out
ings. A picnic dinner served at noon
is always feature In the afternoon
band concerts, a ball game, and a
program of speaking and sports fur
nishes wholesome amusement. The
day concludes with. an evening display
OF tircwoI Iks. This year the great pic
nic is to be held at Brookside Park,
Pasadena, Saturday, June a. 1916.
This is a magnificent park in the
famous city of millionairas. ii has
a wonderful outdoor plunge with ac-
comodations for several thousand
bathers. There are also swings, ten
mis- courts, athletic field, open air
amphitheatre, etc. The park is the pro-
perty of the city. The California rail-
roads have made special excursion
rates from all points in the state for
the event. The colleges in Ohio to the
number of forty have sent pennants

cations in Ohio desiring to boost their

three Graduate Splendid Address
By Professor VIM. Symser.

There was plenty of room in the
High School Auditorium last Thurs
day evening for the audience which
gathered to witness the Annual Com
mencement Exercises which marked
the close of one of the most success
full years in the history of the Wau-
seon Public Schools. The program
was of an interesting nature and was
we'll received by those who were pres
ent. The class of twenty-three COM
posed of the following:
Pauline Allion, Ray Ames, Nellie
Barhite, Marie Barnes, Clarence Bow
ser, Vera Coon, Helen Fink, Paul
Funk, Howard Ham, Margaret How
ard, Alice Knight, Emmett LaSalle,
Nelson LaSalle, Fannie Ligibe1, Mary
McClarren, Florence Patterson, Jesse
Rychener, Olive Schlatter, Charles
Snider, Pauline Stone, Harry Sweeny,
Dorothy Waldron and Lerenz Stein
brecker, made fine appearance as
they appeared on the rostrum in their
caps and gowns and awakened pride
not only in the hearts Of parents and
guardians but as well in the hearts of
citizens of Wauseon who were pres
ent: These young people will deter
mine the future character of our town
or they will represent the town and
give it the reputation it shall have in
other places. The music by the High
School Orchestra and the High School
Chorus under the direction of Prof. F.
A. Tubbs was fine and showed care
full training and much practice
There was something in the way of
an Innovation in the arrangement of
the program, in that the Valedictory
given by Pauline Allion came before
the Salutatory given by Margaret
Howard. Both productions were
worthy of commendation.
The commencement address by Pro-
fessor William E. Smyser of Ohio
Wesleyan University was one of the
very best addresses ever given on
similar occasions in Wauseon. Fro
fessor Smyser described education as
a forcing back of the walls or imita-
tions Of life and making life larger
and more abundant. He said that he
would not attempt to define education
but that he thought that the nearest
possible approach to an adequate de-
finition might be found in the history
of the development of the life of Helen
Keller, who shut in to herself as q
child unable to hear or see or speak
has been led out by education to en-
joyment of and participation in the
beauty of form and sound and the &C.
stacy of lofty thought and life The
address was at once scholarly anG
masterful and at the same time in
tensely interesting and entirely un-
derstandable.
The Diplomas were presented to th,
members of the graduating class By
the President of the Board of Edu
cation, DIR. e. G. Cole and one NOR
year Of efficient and useful service o
our Public Schools was brought to ,
close. -
