EXTRA. IOWA. THURSDAY. MAY. 81

Surely it was inevita BILE that Amer
ica should come in for what is
the one thing she has stood for
during all the years that she has
been a nation. 1t is for freedom,
for the inherent rights of human
ty, fer that true liberty of thought
and action which makes progress
possible. 1t was this yearning for
liberty which drove the Pilgrim
Fathers from these shores i'm those
old troublous times, and sowed the
seed of that vast continent that
was to be. 1t Ills the same wonder
full spirit that has animated her
ncblest sons ever since. 1t is not
so much political considerations. it
is not the submarine menace that
makes Americas decision impera-
tive. 1t is more. the cause of human
ity is at stake. and America, true to
her past, has voice i'm such a
cause. May the great service in
London to-day prove to America
what we English feel" At the con-
clusion, of the service the British
and American National Anthems
were rendered, MIR. Ewart West be-
ing at the organ. Outside the church
the British. French, and American
flags were flown.

EXTRA GRADUATED
SEVENTEEN STUDENTS

The strenuous week of eXamin-
ations and Graduation is over The
class rooms and study halls are
silent and deserted, and another
class OF young men and women have
gone from the beloved building for
the last time as Students
The class of IT is the largest
class that has ever been graduated
from Extra and it is certainly a
c. ass to be proud of. 1t started ON
its career after the elements of
learning in the year 1905 Many
were the discouragements that be-
fell it. Some could not withstand
the temptations to get out and a
way from the steady life OF grind
and dropped out, others were add
ed to the ranks as they toiled on,
until finally after twelve long. dis
couraging, but still happy years,
seventeen rallied around the BAN
ners of purple and white and receiy-
ed their reward.
Rev. Linkletter preached the
ming, May the goth, at the High
School auditorium. Music was
furnished by male quartet con-
Mr. Christensen and MIR. Delahoyde.
The hall was crowded to it's great
est capacity by an appreciative
congre CATION.

the senior class play at $500 o'clock
Saturday morning, May, 19. BY
evening they were all gone. 1t was
decided that in order to accommodate
the many disappointed people that
the play would be given two nights.
think that we can safely say
that Fanny and the Servant Prob
lem as offered by the senior class
of 1917 was the best home talent
play ever given in Extra
The commencement address was
given by Mr.. Beyeridge of Councll
Bluffs on the question of Margins. $
1t was good lesson not only for
the class of II but also for every
one that heard it.

WITH OUT NOTICE

Like a thunderbolt from a clear
sky did the news reach here Satur
day evening that the Sunday train
would be discontinued and probal-
ly the one that arrives from the
south at 1920, daily, too.
Why this service Or rather lack
of service is practiced ON a forbear-
ing people is hard of solution. for
it is said that the Sunday mail is
the ONE thing that keeps body and
soul together in small towns. on
Sundays.
The enforcement of the blue
law and the d'scontinuance of the
Sunday mail trains turns us back
ward to the good old pioneer days
when we could yoke up the oxen
and go visiting. Whenever we darn

AN EXPERT TELLS Us
WHAT TO PLANT

Cultivate chiefly such crops as
will keep for winter. Limit the crop
OF greens. radishes, string-beans,
ETC., to the smallest possible amount
sufficient to meet the summer de-
mard. Grow potatoes, beans and
corn for the main crops. Tomatoes
are satisfactory for canning, and
cabbage for sauerkraut or to be
stored i'm heads. Turnips, beets and
CARROTS may be used as second
crops. and stored for winter.
Save all that you raise. If YOU
cannot do so yourself, find someone
who can take your surplss, even
If YOU have to give it away.
Begin now in simplifying the diet
and conserving such foods as we
have. 1t will prove healthful. and
it will teach us to use food moder-
ately:
