One more commencement has writ

precious craving Of memory. The

ternoon were just what we, who love
splendid young womanhood and man
hood. wanted them TO be-
The orchestra summoned the stu
dents through a wide doorway into the
presence Of an audience Of fathers and
mothers, an audience Of those who
were proud Of their boys and girls, and
Of their Seminary. And the music
spoke Of harmony OF life.
Prayer was offered by Rev. Mr..
Brown, who touched deep chord in
speaking Of heavy cloud which rests
upon our country, and upon our young
men who are called to serve our gov
.ernment.
Rev. Arthur H. Bradford, pastor Of
the Congregational Church in Rutland,
responded TO Mr.. Brooks introduction
by contrasting the warmth Of his wei
come with the GOODNESS of the welcome
in the atmosphere, and the intense
warmth of two years ago. After an
appreciative word regarding his
friendship with Mr.. Brooks and Mrs.
Brooks, Mr.. Bradford stated the two
/ texts which nodded his single theme.
The first, from Epictetus, that diff
culties show what men are. The sec
ond was taken from the Bradford his
tory "Of the Plymouth Plantation,
known as "The Log Book of the May
flower" "All great and honorable ae-
tions encounter inevitable difficulties
which must be enterprised and over
come with answerable courages.'
To show what this meant to the
little Plymouth Colony, Mr.. Bradford
pictured the brave little group of men
and women in Leyden, Holland, facing
their great adventure across the seas
facing dangers real and tangible, rae
ing imaginary dangers of savage
tribes of men. The dangers Of the sea
were great. The little Mayfower was
a fragile craft to brave an ocean
Would we entrust ourselves, in it, up
on the waters of Lake Champlain
How very terrible were the imaginary
dangers of savages is seen in theil
dissertations that they were "a savage
people, barbarous, cruel, and mos
treacherous," and that they inflicted
upon white men cruel tortures, un
speakably horrible, cutting thell
Joints apart, and eating them before

Such was the challenge of great an'

After several seasons Of small now

the other extreme and is now advocat.
ing the use of immense flowers TOT
both hat and dress decoration.
An instance Of this Is found In
Paris hat OF red straw. whose hish
crown and very broad brim are con
nected by q narrow ribbon OF the same
hue tied In a bit Of bow at the BACK
Posed directly In front Is an immense
rose Of silk and velvet, also OF the red
color.
Peoples Of tremendous size are being
employed for dress hats. They are re-
produced In natural colors, with EN-
phasis on the red and pink nuances
Frequently the peoples are pulled apart
and the petals In some fantastic ana
overlapping manner are arranged about
the base OF the crown. The erect Is
very striking when the hat is OF azure
blue erin straw and the peoples IN
fame color.
Another novel bloom is found In
flowers OF mica-trAnslucent and nav
Ing the appearance Of grayish aIabas'
Ter. Such blossoms are sometimes
placed on the top Of the crown OF a
hat of black milan straw, the addi-
tional altitude serving 10 balance the
extreme width Of the brim. Besides
the flowers. sometimes a glazed band
OF ivory ribbon IS employed.

SOME FACTS AS TO PREPAREDNESS

From 1866, the close of the Civil war, to 1885, the Republicans we're
in control of the government a Washington.
In those twenty years congress appropriated $346365,S5252 for the
navy.
When President Cleveland, the first Democratic president elected
since the Civil war, took the oath of office O. March 4, 1885, the Amer
lean navy consisted of junk, wooden ships with old guns and broken
down engines.
The American navy a a joke.
When President Cleveland went out of office four years later the
white Squadron" that carried the American flag to Europe and nee
more inspired respect for American seapower.
In a speech in the house only the other day, Representative Talbot
of Maryland, a member of the Naval Affairs committee, recalled that
Colonel Roosevelt in his administration, invited the Democratic members
of the committee to go to the White House that he might ask them per-
sonaly to vote for four bauleships. On that occasion, said Mr.. Talbot,
Coenel Roosevelt said:
~ am frank enough to admit that We could not have carried o n the
VIZ with Spain successfully except for the navy that a furnished to
the country during Cleve1ands two administrations"
In twenty years the Republican party in congress had spent S419s1o-
$500 of the peoples money and had nothing to show for it OF this
amount %3,l45O345 represented unexpended balances from appropria-
tons of previous years. The money had been wasted; 1t had gone to
make contractors rich and to give employment to lei at political navy
yards to vote as their bosses dictated.
In four years, Cleveland administration, the Democratic party spent
$7 1854 POL so and had a squadron of modern ships to show for it The
money had been spent honestly and not for the enrichment OF favored
contractors and political bosses.
A Democratic president, a Democratic secretary of the navy and a
Democrtic congress created the modern American navy and took TIT first
step for preparedness.
From 1897 to l913-sixteen years-the Republicans yer again in
control of the government.
They thought SO little of the navy they let it II down. 1t was the
old system ver again of iavoritism and waste. They could not see the
wisdom Of being prepared. But in those sixteen year they spent $780,
Os2sl656.
The Republicans admit that under their administrations the navy
had not kept up to high water mark and it a too weak properly to
protect the United States against danger.
President Wilson came into Office o n March a 1913.
In three years the Democratic congress has appropriated S543S02,-
77llS for the navy, and when the program for which appropriations have
been made at this session is completed the American navy will be the
second most powerful navy in the world with only England superior.
The Republicans talk. The Democrats act
Republicans waste money. Democrats spend money efficiently.
If the country wants to feel certain it is safe from attack and have
its navy kept at the highest point of efficiency it will OF for the election
OF President Wilson and a Democratic congress.

CHEAPER CLOTHES FOR WOMEN

The assertion made by speakers at the recent Biennial convention Of
the Federation of Womens clubs in New York City that women can
dress not only well, but with distinction, at a cost of not less than s.
and not more than $40 a gown, will, n o doubt, lead to a good deal of
discussion. That it will be disputed in many quarters is not to be
doubted.
The idea OF a woman securing a gown in which she will appea, we'll
dressed at less than the price she ordinarily pays for a hat is startling,
to say the least.
Clothing manufacturers assured the delegates to the convention that
il women would adopt a standardized street dress it would be possible
to cut dress bills down by half and yer more, but w that sweeping
reduction would fall short of putting the average cost OF a stylish and
distinctive gown at some figure between So and $40.
A standardized street dress is not, however, what the majority Of
the women desire; each woman seeks distinction in her individual wear,
and her aim is to Guido other women in the style and beauty of her APP
parel.

MILITARY DRILL IN SCHOOLS

An excellent object lesson OF the value of military drill in the public
school was presented by The Memorial Day parade at Riverside, says the
Press of that city. The paper adds that a delegation of high school
boys and a battalion of young Indians we're in the parade and that the
"a decidedly humiiatng to the parents of the high school
boys" The Press continues:
with here and there a exception, the high school youngsters
marched in a souchy manner and many of them had a droop to their
shoulders like old lei They e not erect and alert and in general
showed the lack of training and discipline.
THE striking contrast "a the sodiery appearance of the indian
boys. They bore themselves with earnestness and dignity; they yer
we'll set up and marched in good time and with the prompt obedience
to the commands of their officers that comes from the discipline OF mil
itary training.
what makes this difference?
"The explanation is a simple one. The Indian boys ats Sherman in
stitute are required to take military drill, and they show the effects Of it
in their physical condition and their readiness to respond to command.
The boys in the high school, with just is good, natural aptitude for the
fitness which this military training gives, do not have any of its advan-
tages; and they show the lack of it ven 20 the most casual observer"

GIVING THE WRONG DOPE"

The Hearst papers are publishing dispatches stating that in the early
betting in New York Hughes is a two to n favonte. The same date
this appeared the New York World and the New York Times published
statements that O n the CURB bets had been offered, six to five, that
Wilson would be the next president and there were no takers. And u
doubtedly their statement is the true The World and Times are
two OF the big papers of the United States and the distortion of facts
in their columns is permitted, no matter what the circumstances,
but the Hearst papers have the reputation Of coloring news to suit the
varying moods of their owner. and it keeps them pretty busy to follow
