The Auditorium was completely
filled yesterday morning at l o'clock
with the congregations of all the
churches of the city when the bacca
laureate sermon was delivered by
Rev. F. H. Callahan, pastor of the
Cumberland Presbyterian church.
Just preceding the service the ff-
teen graduates in regulation high
school cap and gown, entered the
building and occupied reserved seats
near the front, their entrance max
ing, indeed, an inspiring scene. The
service was in charge of Rev. w.
H. Pugh, pastor of the Lutheran
church, who announced the various
numbers. The invocation was de-
livered by Rev. Wallace Wear, pas
! tor of the First Baptist church, after
which the large congregation joined
in singing "All Hail the Power of
Jesus Name.
Rev. L. d. Lowe. pastor of the
First Methodist church, read the
scriptures, and Rev. Wallace Wear
made the announcements for the va
rious churches.
An appropriate vocal selection was
then splendidly rendered by quar-
tette composed of Messrs. Yoder,
Kirk, Barne and Whitfield.
Rev. Pugh then introduced the
speaker of the occasion, Rev. Gala
han, and his powerful sermon was
given the most interested attention
of the large congregation His sub
ject, The Worth of Man Is Baset
on His Distance from God" wa:
most appropriate. 1t gives the Tele

of life to be seen and cherished dby
their successors as blazed route to
the goal, take their lodging in the
house not made with hands, and pill
low their heads upon the welcome OF
faithful servants.
My scripture reference is the peo-
pies estimate of David as recorded
in the eighteenth chapter and the
third verse of Second Samuel. This
bit of record considered in connec-
ton with David's estimate of God
as recorded in the Sixty-third Psalm
coupled with similar examples given
on almost every page of the Worlds
; History has suggested to me that
,, there is a logical way of estimating
the worth of human beings.
+. History has but one value, and
that is that We may see the cause OF
past results which enables us to
shun the impossible and thereby live
a hundred lives in one of centuries
in one life. No thinking man can
help but notice the seeming one-sided
ness Of history; for instance, it is
composed of stories and descriptions
of men and nations of what We are
pleased to call the higher type, and
but little has ever been said about
the common plodder. An illustration
of that fact is that much more has
been said about the king of England,
of France, the Car of Russia than
a thousand or ten thousand others
who could be found in those same ma
lions. But while the kings name is
high and conspicuous there is much
importance attached to it. for it will
hang in the balance of weight and
worth while the flowers bloom on the
sod above his form.
Science has one value also, which
is that it enables us to take an in
ventory of our resources and TO
learn how to war against poisoning
| germs and thus TO keep lnlS ma
chine unburdened and properly sus-
tanned.
1t is both historically and scienti-
fically true that this man, David,
, was worth more than ten thousand
of the common soldiers Of his army
o 1t is historically true because he had
:, proven his ability by conquering a
= great army in minutes time by
Staying their giant He had scienti-
o fically proven his ability in as many
|, ways and in the same way. The
q popular conclusion would be that
a David was man Of more than nat
r ural ability, but he was not. He only
q stood in the sunshine, showers ant
: atmosphere of the all-powerful Goo
= until he grew in to higher sphere
of manhood than the average maj
! which was not impossible for an!

payment had recently been made
There was insurance on the life o.
Mr., Wolf for several thousand dol
lars-$5 900, or possibly more.
Friends say that he had beer
somewhat respondent of late on ac

RELATION OF
THE CITY TO
THE HOSPITAL

Ai"tloh OF many VINO
uesirous OF getting more specific
uetaiis regarding the equipment ana
upkeep OF Morrel Memorial Hosni,,1
the Telegram has been furnished
with the following Statement Nv ono
VINO is familiar with the situation.
Many do not seem to understand
the relation of the city to the hos.
pitai. The hospital is the proper,v
OF the city and will be if III. c;+v
Will equip and maintain it.
II the city fails either TO eouip
Ut MAINTAIN the hospital; then by
provision of the will and contract
oy which the city accepted the prom
erty, 1t will go back TO the legal
trustee made SO by the will and the
city Will lose the property. Very
rev even know that the city now
owes the hospital s1O,5OO. under a
legal moral binding contract made
by the city authorities in the wear
1914.
Inc trustees and the medical staff
are only asking the city to furnish
$4,000, or stand responsible for that
amount due in one year, which is
$4,000 less than the city now owes
the hospital.
one OF the trustees has arranged
to furnish the $4,000 at six per cent
Tor one year SO the city will not have
to pay it under one year from the
time the money is received. That
will give plenty of time for the city
to raise the money next year in a
way that seems best.
If the note for $4,000 is given by
the city then cashed at six per cent
that means the hospital will get
about $500 discount on the equip.
ment by paying cash and have $500
more to use for other things needed
badly.
The trustees have full control O.
the financial MANAGEMENT of TIL,
hospital, the medical staff have onl!
the medical management There i!
no physician on the board of trus
tees. Three of the city commission
ers are on the board of trustees
hence will be in position to handl
the financial business of the hospi
tai at all times.
According to provisions of the will
charity work will be done at tn
hospital. The amount of chart
work done in the hospital will de
pend on the trustees and the cit
and not the physicians. The medica
staff is obligated and willing to d
all the charity work free, givin
medical, surgical X-ray, laborator
work without any fee, in fact, can
not charge any charity case for sci
: vices in the hospital as agreed upo
, by the staff itself and endorsed b
the trustees.
No loyal citizen that desires to az
for the best interest of the hospiti
: and the city of Lakeland can amor
to vote against properly equipp!n
the hospital for good, efficient wor
I that will be a credit to the city an

INTERESTING ITEMS
FROM HIGH SCHOOL
News Notes Of Interest Gathered
By Our Correspondent at
the Local School,

The high school will not have a
booth at the fair this season but the
Grades will have q bird exhibit. A
new and good idea.
On Wednesday and Thursday only
one session will be held from a. m.
to 12:40 p. M, in order that the pu-
pills may attend the Fair.
Next Saturday the football team
will play their first game of this sea-
son. It will be played with the Litch-
field team on their field. Let the
Willmar boys return with all honors
won.
Four new members have been add
ed to the faculty, namely: Miss Hull
(Science); Miss Randall, (English) :;
Mr.. Melby, Morse and History; and
Mr.. Youngquist, (Swedish and His
tory.)
Two hundred fifty-seven pupils are
school course. OF these thirteen are
taking the Normal Course and have
the east room Of the Third floor of
the Central building.
Because Of State regulations, this
is the last year pupil can take the
Normal Course instead of the fourth
year high school work. Hereafter the
department will be open to high
school graduates only and more ad-
vanced course will be given.
Second day of school in History
class:
Mr.. Foster (noticing two pupils had
dropped History): All, where are the
others? This must be the cream Of
the class.
Eddie: And the test is very poor.
On Tuesday of this week Miss Jen-
ness assigned the pupils their reg
ular seats. It became necessary to
have some Of the Freshmen and Soph-
omores sit two in a seat. Room is
also seated with Freshmen. Anyone
can realize the inconveniences of hav-
ing two pupils sitting in one seat
They are crowded and there is
scarcely enough room for their books
in the desk and these become mixed
up in the course Of the days work.
1t makes it harder for the Principal
to take care Of the pupils under these
conditions than if she could have
them all In one room and all in each
their own place.
GERMAN-The First Year German
Class have change of text, studying
Bacon's New German Grammar, which
contains some reading matter as we'll
as the German work 1t also uses
conversational German more than the
texts used in previous years, thus
making the work more interesting
and profitable for the pupils. The en-
rollment in this class has reached 30.
There are 46 pupils in the German II.
classes, studying "Hoher ais die
Kircke," story of young lives in q
Medieval German city. Once a week
composition and grammar work are
taken up. This work is based on Al.
lens First German Composition and
on grammar references.-Miss Rade'
