BACCALAUREATE DAY.

In it's report of Commencement ex- cises of Springdale High School The News last week, through an oversight, failed to make mention of the bacca- laureate sermon and attendant exer- cises, therefore is pleased to give space to the following report:
 The annual baccalaureate sermon was delivered April 14. The day was beautiful, as it has not been known for years to be otherwise.
 ''The Senior Class of IS met at Cessna Stafford's home and marched from there to the Auditorium, where a large crowd was awaiting our arriv- al
 The stage was well provided with chairs in order that the class, choir and ministers of the town might be seated on the stage
 After a selection by the choir, Dr. Phillips asked the invocation. Then John Sanders gave solo. Mir. San ders is an excellent singer, and his voice is always welcomed.
 Rev. w. A. Piper delivered the sermon which was very much appre- ciated by Class of IS and also the audience. We were not disappointed in the sermon that Rev. Piper deliv- cred to us, for we (Seniors) have never known him to fail to do his part.
 During the last four or five months Mir Piper has worked faithfully with us in Laboratory and in Physics, and we loved him as our teacher and friend.
 When the time came to choose the minister to deliver the baecalaureate sermon we unanimously elected Rev. Piper for we then loved him as our teacher, friend and minister.
 "The text was we'll chosen for the occasion and the sermon was well de- livered Rev. Piper gave many illus tratiens to explain his text. He took our minds back to the first grade in grammar school and brought us through the grammar and high schools and then to our Commence ment. In his illustrations he did not forget to give some Algebra and Ge- ometry problems, but, to our delight, he did not give any Physics problems.
 'I desire to thank Rev. Piper for his splendid sermon and for all the fav- ors he has rendered to the Class of '1S"

FOWLER.

Tom Fowler was born in Indiana, June 16, 1850 and died at his home near Stony Point March 31, 1918.
 Uncle Tom was a remarkably strong man during most of his life. He had little sickness until little more than three years ago. He died of dropsy of the heart.
 Before the end came he left evi- dence with those near to him that he was ready to pass from this world, and that he expected to meet his God in peace on the other side of the riv- CT. He leaves wife and two sons to mourn his loss. They have the sym pathy of the entire community in their sad hour of bereavement.
 Funeral services were conducted at the Stuckey cemetery by Brother Plumley. Immediately after the body was laid to rest.
 Another journey has been made
 This life for him is done. Another soul the debt has paid,
 Another victory won. o, sad and lonely is our home
 Since he has gone away We miss him everywhere we roam.
 We miss him every day. But he is happy in his love
 On that eternal shore. God grant that we may meet above
 Where parting is no more.

High Cattle Prices
 Accompany High Beef Prices

If consumers are to pay less for beef, livestock raisers naturally will receive less for cattle.
 If farmers are paid more for live stock, consumers will necessarily pay more for meat.
 Swift & Company pays for cattle approximately 90 per cent of the price received for beef and by-products. The remaining 10 per cent pays for dressing, freight to market, operation ot distributing houses, and in most cases, delivery to the retailer. Net profits also have to come out of this 10 per cent.
 This margin cannot be squeezed arbitrarily without danger of crippling the only effective means of performing the complex service of converting cattle into meat and distributing this meat to the fighting forces and to consumers.
 Swift & Companys net profit on beef during 1917 was only Z of a cent per pound. On all products, it was a little less than four cents on each dollar of sales. Complete elirni- nation of these profits would not affect appreciably retail prices of meat, or farm prices of live stock.
 Swift & Company will be glad to cooperate in devising methods that will improve conditions in the meat and live stock industry.
