: HIGH SCHOOL NOTES


The students were delighted by a
speech from President Perisho OF
State College last week. He spoke
OH What We Must Do to Win This
War" and gave such a fine talk that
the students were aroused to a higher
degree of patriotism.
The Home Economics Club held
their last meeting Tuesday of last
week when they wen on a picnic to
Lake Campbell They started at the
close of school and had a very enjoy
able time. The feed" was served at
$50 and the time after that was spent
in boat riding and other picnic enter
tainments. They returned at an early
hour tired, but happy group of girls.
Prof. ]. w. Browning, former sup
e~rintendent of the Brookings schools,
was entertained at a picnic given in
his honor, by the senior class. The
seniors gathered at the school house
at $50 last Saturday and were taken
to the lake in cars. After enjoying
a bounteous supper, including roasted
weiners, the seniors entertained them
selves by boating, etc. When darkness
began to gather, the seniors met in
the park and roasted marshmallows.
When they had all disappeared, the
seniors wended their way homeward
voting Mr.. Browning and Miss Wilson
the best Of ~chaperones.
Sam Cornell was kind to the senior
class members and invited them to
visit him at the Fad some evening.
They took advantage of this invita-
tion and visited him Monday evening.
They were greeted by the usual smile
and were invited to walk in. They
very much enjoyed the splendid pic
ture, Bought and Paid For" and are
u~nspeakably grateful to Mr.. Cornell
for this attention showed the class.
We will always think in the days to
come of the friends Of the senior class.

Swift & Company, in fifty years of well
ordered growth, has become one of the
great national services because it has
learned to do something for the American
people which they needed to have done
for them, in the way i'm which they
preferred to have il done.
1t has met each successive demand. in
the changing conditions of national life,
by getting good meat to increasing mill
lions effectively, efficiently, economically,
and expeditiously.
The Swift & Company packing plants,
refrigerator cars, car routes, branch
houses, organization, and personnel of
today are the practical solutions, born of
practical experience. TO the food problems
of half a century.
Because of all these elements working in
correlation and unison, Swift q Company
is able &c. supply more and better meat to
more people than would have been pos
sible otherwise, at a netprofit per pound of
meatso low "a fraction of q cent? that che
consumer price is practically unaffected.
Strip away any portion of this vast,
snlooth-running human machine, and you
make large part of the meat supply
uncertain, lose the benefit ofhalf o century
of fruitful experience, and scatter the
intelligent energies of men who have
devoted a life work toward meeting tho
needs of nation in one vital field.

should make the authorization sue-
gested. The time is most appropriate.
Public opinion is sympathetic. What
the Navy has done during tho past
eighteen months has not, for reasons
we'll understood, been the subject Of
detailed statement; but enough is
known to cause great pride in the
Navy's part in the war. It has done
we'll all that had been promised and
vowed in its name, and was confidently
expected by those familiar with con-
diticns.
The millennium is not in sight. It
is probably not just around the corner.
Force will continue for very long
time yet to be an indispensable factor
in the affairs of government. Our gov
ernment is one Of the biggest in the
business. We have not emerged from
tho war larger in area, but have
emerged from it considerably larger
in the matter Of responsibilities and
w4Tld calculations. More is expected
Of US than ever.
Our sea power has long been much
too small. 4 hundred good reasons
existed why it should be greater, but
net until the war reinforced them was
the country reused to the necessities
of the case. The thing that should be
done now is to keep the country
reused; to see that, while the matter
is we'll understood, it should be sup
ported OH its merits, and the Navy ad-
vaMced in size and form commensurate
with the new times and the eountry's
new obligations.

Rule in America.

There are at present some careless
expressions escaping both writer's and
speakers respecting the President and
his coming appearance at Versailles.
He Will be, we are told, a ruler among
rulers-the ruler Of one Of the great
est Of the nations-and be accorded the
consideration, and expected to weld
the influence, attaching to such station.
In the proper sense of the word, a
President Of the United States is not
a ruler at all, but, at the most, a
servant Of the people. He delights in
that appellation. He possesses large
powers, but derives them from the peo-
pie, and is answerab.e to the people
for their exercise. Should he abuse or
exceed them, he could be impeached
and dismissed. The people arc the
source of all the authority he exer-
eises. They always rule. He never
rules.
At Versailles the chief executive of
the United States will be a very con-
spicuous tigure-in way, the most
conspicuous figure present-and will
receive the Difference due to his sta
ton and to his personal bearing. But
he will not appear ut the peace table
as ruler.
To illustrate. He did not put Amer
lea into the war. That power was
vested in Congress, and was exercised
by Congress. The President could not
have moved 4 soldier or ship without
the authority Of that action.
He had not dollar to spend or to
lend for war purposes until provided
by Congress. All that has been spent
for war equipment by this country,
and all lent to our allies, Congress has
raised by taxation or bonds. and voted.
He has been merely the custodian and
the director. ....
Whatever action he may take at the
peace table will be subject to review
by the Senate Of the United States.
His single say-so, or the say-so Of the
associate commissioners appointed by
him, would not commit this govern
meut to anything. Unless the Senate
approves, the treaty made at Versailles
will, so far as this country is con-
cerned, be no more than q scrap Of
paper. This, of course, is well under
stood by the President, and by the rep
resentatives of the nations who will sit
in the conference with him.
Thus we SEQ the very great differ
ence between a ruler, properly So
called. and the principal servant and
spokesman Of free people, and an
swerable to them for all Of his official
words and deeds. He possesses no au-
therity Of any kind, in peace or war,
except such as they have conferred
upon him. ....
