teer assistants for this week the fol-
lowing young ladies, Nancy Harris,
AngeIine Zahl, Josephine Zahl, Mar
garet Burpee, Lois Caine, Elsa WolI-
than and Dorothy Geenty.
Persons who did not register may
still register with the county regis
tration board. An official order re-
ceived yesterday says, "While scrut-
my should be made of each case to
determine whether punitive action
is required it is desired for the next
few days to pursue a liberal policy
in this regard in order that the reg
istratiOn may be made complete at
the earliest possible moment. Non
residents may also continue to reg
lister. If it later appears that the
liberality of this policy is being
abused more stringent action will
be taken"
A dispatch from Washington says
that when the registration cards are
consolidated and listed aIphateti,
caIly by counties and cities the names
of those enrolled will be published
Just how much time will be re-
quired by the boards for listing the
names has not been estimated, bur

in all the rest of the world put to-
gether. This means that the young
man or young woman today without
an education starts life handicapped,
and DR.. Brown therefore congratulate
ed the people Of Morris on the in
terest they take in education, and
especially commended the proposed

followed by two pleasing selections
by a ladies' quartet consisting of Mrs.
! J. G.. Morrison, Mrs. L. D. Tripp, Mrs.
Geo. Beise and Miss Lillian Hanson.

honor announcements and presented
the class, after which DR.. G. E..
Caine, president of the board of edu-
cation, presented the diplomas. The
exercises closed with the singing of
America, and the benediction by

direction of Miss Syverson, the eff
cient instructor in domestic science.

DR.. Browns theme was "Our Her.

of the schools Of colonial times anC

ranged along the side of the room

the household monument I proposed should be erected to Charles Dickens. I feel that performed my part of the work honestly and faithfully, as nlr gratuitous contribution to the most fit ting memorial that could be conse- crated to the great author. But I counted without my host I found to my surprise, that the publishers who had made thousands of dollars out of his works, were not willing to bring out such a memorial volume, lest it would not pay them their usual profit on a business speculation, and they might run the risk of losing sev- eral dollars in assisting to erect a. monument to ap author to whose genius they certainly owed some pecuniary obligation, if their sensibil- tiles could recognize no other. So I remain the sole owner and. possessor of household monument which had hoped to see erected in many a family circle on both sides of the At lantic. But do not count the labor lost. feel amply paid for it in the satisfaction of having read more thor oughly the mind of the world in re- gard to Charles Dickens and his works than other living man could have done without reading what I hold in my hands,"

United States was exerting his entire power to bring the nations of Europe to their senses. He had warned them of the pitfalls that were strewn on every side of the American people, and had pursued his course which lead toward peace because he believed that the situation of neutral nations, exceedingly hard to endure" would soon be rendered altogether intol- erable." He said as much in his note later the things he foresaw put in their appearance. The situation was rendered altogether intolerable.' . Now the die is cast.
 Whatever may come of it, the Amer lean people stand ready. If 1t is to be a sacrifice of life and treasure there is not a man physically capable who Will not offer his services to the country
 There is not a true American woman who will not, like her Spartan sister of old, bid her husband, or son, or sweetheart, brother, "Go, your country calls you!" The same spirit that prompted the men of '76, that prevailed in the war of 1912, that burned in the hearts of the blue and eripped their brothers in gray. in the war between the states, is alive today and burning brightly on the national shrine Behind the Goddess of Lio- ertv the new Army of America stands strong and determined, ready to up hold, at any cost the honor of the Republic.

 In the candidacy of E.. w. schult: for county commissioner and his en- dorsement of Senator George W. Ilett, those keeping in touch with the po- l1tical situation see possible hint of future breach between Mayor George A. Quigley, leader of one re- publican faction, and Senator Klett. .the stalwart leader of another faction. Some have intimated that Mayor Quisley would put forth candidate of his own for the county commits sionership, but he is away and none has appeared. Knowing that Commits sioner Joseph Towers would retire, friends of Mayor Quigley are known to have urged him to go out for the position, but he steadfastly declined. Now the gossip. has reverted back to its former track. Mayor Quigley Is now regarded as making plans for getting into the race for congressman two years hence. Friends of Senator Klett are also understood to be inn pressing upon him the desira bility of his being candidate for congress. Should these conditions develop the c. o. P. in the state may play an inn portant factor. Mayor Quigley would not have the support of J. Henry Roraback or John T. King, the party leaders, it is said, as he is reported SIS having said many harsh things about each making it evident that there was no love lost on either side.
