CLOSING LONG CREEK ACADEMY.
Community Has Pleasant Occasions
at Commencement Time.

Long Creek, May Especial: On
Friday night, April 13, the oratorical
contest between the three mountain
mission schools Of the State was held
at Long Creek Church. This was an
interesting time, there being two
young men from each school compet-
ing for prizes. These young men all
had good pieces and rendered them
we'll. The prizes were won by Albert
Tibbs, of the Long Greek Academy,
and young man from the North
Greenville Academy.
We were glad to have with us on
this occasion three Of our leading
pastors--Dr. T. NJ. Galphin, of Sen
eca; Rev. r. l.. Smith, Of Walhalla,
and Rev. G. d. Boyd, Of South Un-
ion. Appropriate remarks were
made by each Of these gentlemen.
On the fourth Sunday, April 22d,
an all-day singing was engaged in,
led by Lenluel Burton and others.
The people Of the community served
dinner on the grounds, which added
considerably to the occasion
On Thursday night, April 26th, be-
gan the closing exercises Of the Long
Creek Academy. which consisted of
two oratOrical contestS--one between
the girls of the school and the other
between the boys. There were eight
boys and eight girls in these con-
tests. The prize for the boys was
won by Dewey Thrift, and the one for
the girls by Miss Gertrude Dunlap.
On Friday morning the literary ad-
dress was delivered by Rev. J. D.
Grain, of Greer. This was a great
| address, on the subject, Casting a
Shadow 1t was good to have with
us also on this occasion DR.. Bayles,
| pastor Of the First Baptist church of
Greer. After the literary address a
delicious dinner was served on the
grounds, which was enjoyed by all.
At S o'clock in the evening banquet
was given to the trustees Of the acad-
| emy in the dining room of the girls
dormitory.
Friday night witnessed the clos
! ing exercises Of the school, these con-
| sisting Of recitations, plays and songs
rendered by the school. On account
Of sickness at home the writer was
kept away, but the reports from
those who were present give evi-
dence Of its being a great time. l
heard some from the center Of the
county say it was the best rendered
program they ever heard. We appre-
ciate these good reports coming from
those on the outside.
The church was kind enough to
give to the school the use Of it's build
ing for all these exercises. The build
ing was packed to its capacity on
| Friday night, and many were on the
outside who could not get in. This
shows the great need Of an audito-
| rum. We hope It will not be long
till we can have the necessary build

FOR TREASURY
Chief Gardner Has Collected
More Than $500 For Bor-

Since Chief Gardner took charge
of the Steelton Police Department
two weeks ago there has been S444.S2
placed in the borough treasury and
there is s110.ss to be added to it in
the next few days. This surpasses all
records of the department. All the
money has been obtained through
fines for traffic ordinance violations.
Most of the money has been the re-
suit of the fines imposed on persons
for speeding.
Effects of the campaign are cas-
lily seen by the movement of traffic
in Front street. Instead of autoists
going through the town at a high
rate of speed every machine is trav-
cling along slowly and all operators
sound their horns at each street in

up gambling in Steelton and vicinity

and several other officers yesterday

been under vigilance fthe depart

u. S. Must Provide Great
Amount of Artillery
to Blast Enemy Lines

British Headquarters in France,
July 1.-American officers, who have
been studying conditions on this
front for some time past. say that
they are wonderfully impressed with
the British artillery. which has made
them more than ever conscious of
the immense efforts the United
states will have to make in that di-
rfection. The American people have
been quick to appreciate the value
OF great aerial fleets of battle and
scouting planes: the air service APP

The artillery has solved most of

the problems of modern war. 1t was
the artillery that blew the Germans
from their grim grip on Vimy ridge;
1t was the artillery that shook them
loose from their nearly three years
hold on the high ground about Mes
sines; It was the artillery that shat
tered and crumpled rne steel and
concrete defenses of the Hindenburg
line from Arras nearly all tho way
to Queant. 1t is the artillery to-day
that is harassing and pounding the
Germans until they are fairly dazed
when the infantry attacks begin.
The limited depth of the battles
to-day Is due to the fact that the
infantry must not get beyond the
protecting cover of their artillery

which no other nation possessed, that

way to quick victory in 1914,
