many diversified interests in the
state and unity the people into
one compact body with a common
aim and purpose.
He urged the people generally
and the members of the gradual .
ing class in particular to keep
this aim in view and to use their
utmost endeavors to make the
school system of the state the
one great center around which the
entire people could unite in one
compact body with one common
purpose, the building up of our
schools and through them the
state.
The address was followed by \
vocal duet, Sing on Sweet Bird"
by Agnes and Mable Sweeney.
Superintendent f. E. Lukens then
made a short address thanking
the patrons of the school for
their cooperation in the work of
the school during the past year
and closed by presenting the 1916
graduating class.
The diplomas were then pre-
sented to the members of the
graduating class by DR.. w. F.
Clarke, president of the board Of
education. The doctor addressed
the class with a few words of ad-
vice in which he called attention
to the fact that although this
evening marked the close of their
high school course it was only
their commencement, whether
they entered some higher insti-
tuition of learning or whether they
commenced their life work. He
then addressed each member in
dividually with a few appropriate
words and presented the iplOmas.
The girls of the graduating
class sang the class song, entitled
Farewell Song" and the exer-
cises closed with a benediction by
Rev. A. R. Griggs.

EXPENSIVE WAY TO BUILD ROADl
Farmer Suggests A Direct Tax As Being The
More Economical Way

R. f. Stout of DeSmet spent
Tuesday and Wednesday in this
city. He is field deputy assess
or and was here making his re-
port. He has finished the work
IN his district and in spite of the
excessive rains, which made it
very difficult to get over the ter
ritory, the expenses of assessing
his district will be nearly one
hundred dollars less this year
than last.
When asked about the senti-
ment in regard to bonding the
county for one hundred and fifty
to two hundred thousand dollars
to build roads he said that there
is some sentiment for the prop
osition in that part of the county
but not nearly as much as when
the subject was first brought up.
He said that as the subject was
put to the people, "to borrow the
money and build the roads and
let future generations pay for it,
sounded good and some of the
farmers favored it. However, as
the subject was given more
thought and they learned that
they would not only have to pay
the interest each year but also
raise money for a sinking fund
each year, it gave the matter a
different appearance and started
the people figuring for them
selves. They soon realized that,
whereas, if they bonded for two
hundred thousand dollars il
would cost them four hundred
thousand dollars in the end, anC
this sum would have to be paid, il
the bonds were for twenty years
in twenty equal installments, ol
twenty thousand dollars per year
providing the money could be Sc
cured at five per cent. If th'
rate is more than five per cen
that amount additional woulC
have to be paid each year.
"There is still another thing,
he said, (which does not appea
to me and that is the fact tina
while we will be paying five o.
six per cent interest on our bond

Team In Runaway

f. A. Gaskills team, used in
delivering milk in the city, ran
away Wednesday doing cOnsid-
cradle damage. The driver left
them near Jerry McCarter's resi-
dence while he was delivering
milk. The horses started and in
turning the corner the rig ran OF
the embankment and was over
turned. This frightened the
horses and they started to run.
They soon broke away from the
wagon and after running a short
distance were stopped. The
wagon was badly smashed.

dred people attended the grad
uating exercises at the high
school last evening. The audi
torium was filled to overflOwing
and extra chairs were brought in
and filled the aisles and lobby and
yet many had to stand.
In addition to the graduating
class, the stage was occupied by
C. F. Hofstetter, principal of the
Senior High School, Superintend-
ent f. E. Lukens, DR.. w. F. Clarke
president of the board of educa-
ton, and M. A. Brannon, presi-
dent of the University of Idaho,
who delivered the graduating ad-
dress.
The exercises opened with
we'll rendered violin trio from
Lucia de Lammermoor, by Don
Hopkins and Mable and Agnes
Sweeney, which was followed by
a chorus, "In the HarbOr We've
Been Sheltered" by the High

church offered an invocation,
which was followed by a solo en-
titled May Day." by Miss Ethel
Smith, a member of the gradual
ing class. Miss Smith received
an enthusiastic encore and re-
sponded with another selection
which was highly appreciated.
superintendent Lukens, in a
few we'll chosen words, introduced
President M. A. Brannon of the
University of Idaho, who delivered
the graduating address. Presi-
dent BrannOn is a fOrcible and
interesting speaker and had the
attention of his large audience to
marked degree. The subject
of his address was Educational
Unity"
He opened his address by say
ing that he felt very we'll ac-
quainted with the people of st.
Maries for the reason that the
superintendent of schools, Mr.
Lukens, and a number of the To-
cal teachers we're graduates of the
University of Idaho and adopted
children of his and he had also
met a number of former Idaho
stuents since he came to the city.
He took as a sort of text on
which to base his remarks an ar
ticle in the Atlantic Monthly by
an eminent writer, in which he
claimed our civilization is drift
ing; that there is no way of di-
recting the acquisition of know
ledge or controlling its use or the
acquisition or control of wealth
and cited a number of examples
in the city, county and state.
He called attention to the di-
versified conditions in the state,
both as to occupation and ma
tivity of its citizens and showed
that there could be no genuine
sympathy between these diversi-
fed interests until they were
welded together either by some
great calamity or by some great
ideal.
He mentioned the present wal
in Europe and the danger that
this country might be drawn intC
it and the further danger from
its diversified interests and ma
tional interests and spoke of the
necessity of some great force tC
weld the nation and the state in
to one compact whole. Atten-
ton was called to the number O.
different religious sects in th'
state and it was shown that re
ligion could not be depended up
on to weld the people together.
He then described the educa
tional plan of the state and toll
rN how the system had been unifle
into one compact whole which in
cludes the country schools, tn
grades, the high schools and a
other educational institutions O
the state and described the schOC
system as the one great idea
which would be able TO unite tn
