Expect 500 Grads
At 0. H, s. Reunion

At meeting Of the Board of Di-
rectors of the Omaha High School
Alumnae association Saturday final
arrangements were made for the big
annual alumnae reunion to be given
in honor of the class of 1916, just
graduating from the Central High
school. The reunion meeting at which
it is estimated more than 500 alumnae
will be present is to be held at the
Happy Hollow club, Monday, June
l9, where a large entertainment COM
mittee will provide stunts and diver
sions for everyone from the Oldest
to the newest graduate.
Every class will be met at the door
by a reception committee composed
of members of its own class who will
take charge of the various class re-
unions and table arrangements. A
general committee has been appointed
by the board for handling the various
phases of the reunion. On account OF
the size of this committee the board
had some difficulty in securing a
meeting place suitable for the purpose
but this difficulty has been relieved
by the offer of Mayor Dahlman of the
use of the city council chamber, for
Monday evening, June II. The com.
mittee which has been selected will
meet at the council chamber in the
city hall at p. m. Monday, June L.
where the duties OF the various recep-
ton committees will be assigned.

Many Elks Will Be
Here for the State
Meeting This Week

Local Elks are not too modest to
look for $500 Elks in Omaha today
as delegates to the annual state gath
ering OF Elks, and their families for
convention. ~ t,
Even Samson, who is to entertain
the crowd at the den this evening, is
placing the estimate at only 1000,
and Samson is usually strong on esti-
mates. Yet after all, the local Elks
may be right in their estimate, for
since the annual gathering Of the Elks
was instituted four years ago, the
crowds attending the convention have
swelled each succeeding year, until it
may not be too much to look for $500
men, women and children when the
trains are all in and the delegates and
families are all tabulated.
No wonder they have large attend
ance. Why not. Do they not have
the best times this side of Coney
Island? Deed they do, for they have
athletic sports, convention speeches,
songs, and music, and then fish bakes
and clam bakes and all the good
things in the whole world. Thus each
year these state meetings grow more
and more popular.

DR.. TITUS LOWE
TALKS TO STUDENTS
Delivers Baccalaureate Sermon to
the Graduating Class of the
Omaha High School.
SPEAKS ON THE VACANT NICHE

"The Vacant Niche" was the theme
upon which Rev. Titus Lowe preached
the baccalaureate sermon to the grad
uating class of the Central High
school yesterday morning at the First
Methodist church.
The inspiration for his sermon he
gathered on the battlefield OF Sara
toga, which he visited during his re-
cent trip east.
"A great monument stands on the
battlefield" said Rev. Mr.. Lowe, land
in inches facing north, east and west
are heroic figures of great generals.
But the niche facing south is vacant,
The man whose figure might have
been in that niche proved recreant
to his trust, he was wanting when the
great hour came, he was traitof His
name was Benedict Arnold.
Failure of the Spirit.
"All the failures of history have
been, like this, failure OF the spirit
And all the successes of life have
been and always will be successes OF
the spirit There is something that
burns inside, that makes men great
and admirable and useful; and lack OF
that something leaves them little and
despicable and useless.
This holy flame inspired Lincoln
when he strove during those critical
years of the republics life and brought
his country safely through 1t in
spired Grant when he declared he
would fight it out along this line il
it takes all summer
1T inspired that band OF musicians
on the sinking Titanic when they con-
tinued to play Nearer My God to
Thee as the great ship went down
1t inspired a color bearer in the war
who was rushing far ahead Of his
company and was called upon to come
back or the enemy will capture our
flag He shouted, Bring up your
men and they won't capture it.
Pride Is Peacock.
"Scorn the second-best things. Put
aside such things as pride. Pride is
a peacock with an enormous tail and
a peanut head. 1t struts about trying
to call attention to a gorgeous tail
for which it is not at all responsible
| love a bulldog because he is right
there when he is needed. The bulldog
does what is expected of him and
loses no time about doing it.
"The girl or boy who learns some.
thing about the holy flame will &C
right in the crises OF life; will be
American without any hyphenatine
with any other country; will give the
most and get the most from life"
The students marched from the
high school to the church under the
guidance of Miss Jessie Towne and
took the seats reserved for them.

MEMORIAL TABL Eft
IN HONOR OF DALE
Bishop Frank M. Bristol Tells of the
Real Worth of John Dale
as q Man.
SAYS TO PRAISE, NOT MOURN

Bishop Frank NJ Bristol delivered
an eloquent tribute to John Dale,
founder of the Hanscom Park Metho-
dist church. who died last winter, at
memorial services at the church Sum
day morning. Following the address
bronze tablet at the right from
the pulpit was unveiled.
Bishop Bristol said the occasion
should be one OF praise, not of mourn
ing. He was sure John Dale, could
he speak, would make this request,
81 knew him for fifty years said
the bishop, even before he came to
Omaha. / knew him in Kankakee,
where he lived longer than he did
here, | recall him wildly as gen
erous, self-sacrificing man of God and
OF the people. Among men worth
while | know none more worthy to
be included than John Dale.
Monument to Man.
Study the monuments of the
world. Here is a shaft in memory
of discoverer, another of an inven-
tor. to one who devised remedy for
healing disease or alternating pain,
the author of a new law that helps the
world-all these being honored for
their goodness, their heroism, their
devotion to humanity, which amounts
TO the same thing in the end, benev-
olence
John Dale had not title. no h.redi-
tary privileges, His honors came to
him from his goodness In that ca
pacity he was an aristocrat. His
crown was his virtue, his honor was
his character.
Kind hearts are more than cor
onets and simple faith than royal
blood
John Dale had no title, no herdi-
of prohibition and temperance in pio-
neer days of the conflict against the
liquor traffic. Though he failed to
live longh enough to see the complete
triumph of all he had fought for, he
will join with the angels in rejoicing
at the final victory.
He was type of what Chris
tian should be. We were proud to
refer to him as a representative of re-
ligion, and of the church. One may
argue as one will against the theolo-
gies or other ologies, but there is no
argument against such a man as John
Dale.
Led Bishop to Christ.
He was always optimistic, OF good
cheer, perpetual giver, a welcome
guest, one who never seemed to grow
old m spite of his IS years. He was
the youngest man at IS I ever saw.
He was one that the children will
remember as one to be initiated and
followed. He died without fortune.
His fortune was his spotless name. He
was the one more than all others
who led me to Christ and helped me
to become a Christian ministers As
a generous, kind-hearted neighbor
and man of God l can not speak Of
him too highly"
