sized. So I say to you, the graduating
class of 1918, that you, with al other
people today, must base your efforts
towards success upon the service that
you render. That you will render this
service to your associates, your coun-
try and to humanity, hope, and most
sincerely believe"
The graduates were presented to the
board of erucation, represented by G. j.
Levey, by the principal, Professor Ross
Rogers, who emphasized in his tNlk the
splendid class spirit which had been
developed in the school, and especially
in the senior class, and the co-opera-
ton which had been received from
every member of the school faculty. In
speaking of the splendid results which
had been attained by the school, Mr..
Rogers also called attention to the
many handicaps under which the school
had advanced, especially to the made
quacy of the building. He referred to
the report of the committee on educa-
ton, advisory committee of the coun-
ell of national defense, who gave ii as
their opinion that at this time il is
particularly essential to maintain
school systems as fully as possible, en-
Stu0e0tS 10 commune learning.
to change courses and methods of in
struction to fit students of the present
and future, and to emphasize thrift and
avoid waste. He referred to the fact
that German efficiency was largely
based upon the German school sys-
tenn.
In closing his charge to the students.

WHY DO ALL DOCTORS
PRESCRIBE CALOMEL?

OF all medicines IN the world, doc
tors prescribe calomel most often and
depend upon it most universally There
must be a good and sufficient reason
what is It?
you will find that the medical authors
ties prescribe calomel for almost every
disease. The reason is that oaaomel is
the greatest and only thorough Eystem-
purifier. 1t makes the liver active.
drives out the poisons from the stom-
ach, bowels and kidneys and thereby
purifies the blood. Calomel puts the
entire system in the most favorable
condition for nature TO exercise her re-
Operative power, Your doctor will
tell you that drugs merely assist Ma
ture. That is why he presoribes calo-
mel so often.
The new kind OF calomel, called .Cal-
otabs," is refined and purified from
all of the nauseating and dangerous
qualities of the old style calomel and is
rapidly taking its place, for It is more
effective than the old style calomel as
a. liver-cleanser and system-purifier.
One Calotab at bedtime, with a swal-
low of water-that's all. No nausea,
nor the slightest unpleasantness. Next
morning you awake feeling fine--with
a hearty appetite for breakfast. Eat
what you please-fruits, acids or any
thing. No restrictions OF habit or diet.
Calotabs are sold only in original,
sealed packages, price thirty-fiye cents.
Recommended and guaranteed by drug
gists everywhere. Your money back II
youy are not delighted.-Adv.

FIRST of the American Army--they died in France!
i Gresham! Enright! Hay! They died for us.
And willingly! But not, pray God, in vain!
For the sake of them, if for no other reason,
will you not give to the Red Cross which will care for
the men that follow them?
For the sake of what they died for, will you not
give-and give till the heart says stop?
None of us here can give as greatly as they gave
and as others are yet to give. But can we not sacri-
flee ourselves a little? Will you take a little from
the comforts of your life and give, not a mere "con-
science gift" that salves your pride and let's you say
to YOURSELF: IL have given to the Red Cross" but
a gift that cuts down into the quick and hurts be-
cause it makes you deny yourself?
Remember-Mey gave till they died!

Beginning Monday and continuing for one week. the Birmingham men in the employ of the Metropolitan Life Insur- ance company will devote their entire time to the sale of War Savings Stamps.
 There are AS of these insurance safes men in this city. and their efforts this week are expected to count for much in stimulating the sale of the stamps lo- cally.
 The men are acting under instructions from the national office. Every Metro politan Life man in the United States and Canada is ordered to do nothing for one week but sell Savings Stamps. Daily reports on the progress made must be sent in to the home office and the thousands of employees of the company are going out for new record in sales manship.
 The local force is full of enthusiasm over the weeks work ahead of them and each is eager to do his part patriotically in selling all the stamps he possibly can. The company in thus contributing the services of its men expresses the hope that they will be received cordially when they call upon citizens during the next six days,

 Following up his allusion to the enemy effort in the St. Quentin region, the writer says:
