the other classes the faculty. and
friends numbering about one hundred
present to hear of the various activities
of those who have finished the course.
The salutatory was given by Miss
Agnes Cribbis. and was cleyerly adapt

Harold Miller disposed of the future
of each member of the class in salts
factory manner, for he had been chosen
class prophet, and had them all turn out
well.
As class historian Miss Violet Rich

to the voyage of party. and did it
nicely.

his clients.
Miss Florence Turner announced the
numbers on the program for the even

sung by Ray Coughlin, accompanied by
Jack Roth. Mr.. Coughlin' $ enunciation
is so good, that in addition to the musi-
Cal value, nothing of the clever wording
of this bit of comedy was lost. En-
thusiastic applause was rewarded by
the singing of beautiful lullaby.
For this occasion the girls wore suit
skirts and blouses, and it wouldn't be
fair not to mention the young gentle

Graduates Hear Their
Baccalaureate Sermon

Sunday night at the Presbyter-
ian church, the senior class heard
their baccalaureate sermon preach
by Rev. Benjamin Eitelgeorge,
formerly pastor of the local
Methodist church, now in charge
of the church of the same denomi-
nation in Salida.
Every available seat held some
one interested in the class of 10,
who was stirred by the ideals held
out to them by the very competent
speaker. The class occupied po-
sitions OF honor, and paid closest
attention, and could not help
imbibing ideas which will make
changes of one sort or another in
the lives of young men or women
standing as they are at the open
door of world endeavor.
The sermon was hopeful Ac-
cording to the speaker, anything
is possible, if we but will it
so, and opportunities are great for
those of great purposes.
A choral arrangement of "Abide
with Me" was sung by the COM
munity chorus, lead by Mrs. w.
E. Renshaw, and accompanied by
Mrs. Sprague Stewart. The
chorus also lead in the singing of
two beautiful hymns.
The juniors had decorated the
church for the occasion, and the
effect was very pretty.

evening. The big porch had been
decorated by the juniors with
class colors on filmy butterflies

vades all of the functions of grad
uation week.
The girl graduates were in
evening gowns and looked their
prettiest. Music was furnished
by Leach's orchestra. Punch
was served during the dancing
The whole affair went off beauti-
fully, owing to perfect arrange

Class of '19 Launched
on The Sea of Lite

As a perfect closing for the
week of graduating exercises OF
the class of 10, the commence
ment was held Thursday evening
at the Opera House, and was wit
messed by nearly all who could be
seated.
The address was made by Prof.
Harry NJ Barrett, principal of the
East Denver High school, a man
most admirably fitted to speak to
a graduating class. He said that
the worst vice is giving advice,
but that if he might give one bit
of advice it would be to keep on
graduating His subject was
"Graduating, Life Habit" He
contrasted for minute that SUBJ
ject with the one containing sa
Light Habit as had thru a mis-
understanding been ordered print
ed on the programs.
He explained that by derivation,
the word graduate means to take
steps, and he strongly recommends
that we never stop taking steps in
the development of body, brain,
books, and behavior.
illustrated with interesting
stories, this talk will yield an in
huence on the class, who will
never forget many of the good
points brought out by Mr.. Barrett.
Music was furnished by Leach s
orchestra, and by the community
chorus, who rendered several SIM
pie but beautiful selections.
The invocation was pronounced
i,,by Rov. J. Ms-tin and .he hene
dIction by Rev. r. II. McCabe
In presenting the class with
their diplomas, Superintendent
Charles E. Greene spoke of the
considerable advance made in the
schools this year, attributing the
results to the morale of the stu
dents and to the sincere co-opera-
ton of the patrons. but was too
modest to claim a large share of
the credit, which belongs to Pro-
fessor Greene and his corps of
teachers, who have contributed
to the success of the years work.
Diplomas were presented to: Os-
car Rudolph Anderson, Dewey a.
Clarke, Anna Marie Christensen,
Agnes Jeanette Cribbis, Grace NJ
Curnow, Virginia Mildred Fromm,
Frank Harold Miller, Francis Le-
roy Pascoe, Violet Mae Richards

Georgetown Distiller
Caught With the Goods

The thirsty of Georgetown are
again up against it. They didn't
in the least mind paying 81 q

ham arrested the thrifty manu-
facturer.
Schneider was not making any
effort at large production, being
content with turning out about
two quarts daily. He never lack
ed customers. thus a sad drouth
holds sway in the county.

Senior Class Does
Well With Their PLAY

The Senior Glass play. miss
Somebody Else" given Monday
night by the class of 1919 at the
Opera House, was clever sketch
nicely put on, and the well-tilled
house felt amply repaid for at
tending.
Miss Grace Curnow in the title
role enjoyed being a millionaire,
and, while pretending to be an
Irish maid, acted that part equally
we'll Miss Curnow was charming
in either costume.
Miss Curnow's French maid
Celeste, acted by Miss Florence
Turner, was one of the most at
tractiye parts. Miss Turner had
the accent well mastered and her
stage presence was perfect, as she
took her active saucy part.
As chauffeur TO the star act
ress, Oscar Anderson impressed
one with his importance, and in
deed was quite suited to the part.
Miss Anna Christensen was
we'll made up as a matron, and
her lorgnette was effective and be-
coming. Her dignity lent bit of
charm to the play different from
that impaired by the gay young
folks.
This society lady's son. part
splendidly taken by Dewey Clark.
was perhaps the leading actors
role. He was sincerely interested
in the leading lady, and displayed
no difficulty in filling the bill.
His greatest trouble was in con-
cealing his appreciation Of the
maid when he was not supposed
TO show it.
Virginia Fromm was a petite
little daughter of the societ y lady,
with enough principle to prevent
her being married for her money.
She looked her part and acted it
we'll.
One could never say that Har-
old Miller would make a good
crook, but that he took that part
well in the play must be admitted.
His various attempts at matrimony
and incidental crookery were well
done and amusing.
The young lady fattered by the
attentions of this smooth young
fellow-Miss Violet Richards
was part that gave opportunity,
for some pretty costuming and
some good acting Miss Violet
was well chosen in this role
Miss Agnes Cribbis, as the
despondent keeper of a failing
hotel, was splendid. especially in
her black evening dress, which
she wore after her house had be-
came popular and entertained
society folks. Her explanations,
after having made misrepresenta-
tions to a friend, we're pathetic
and well done.
Jessie Barrick, in the character
of a pessimistic maid always look
ing for the death notices, interest
ed in tombstones and hoping to
be very unhappy, was a scream,
and took her part in an unusually
realistic way.
Leroy Pascoe, as an absent
minded scientist, added an appre-
ciated touch of humor, and played
his part admirably.
Giving grace and airiness to
round out the plot were beauti-
fully costumed bellies. Misses Ger
aldine Coates, Mildred Jones and
Leona Stephens, and smartly at
tired fellows, Marshall Hull and
Gordon Walters.
The stage arrangements were
effective, and the costuming very
pretty. Mrs. E. V. fngels assisted
with the makeup, and Professor
Clarke was faithful and efficient
in coaching the play.
The proceeds of the play amount
ed to nearly $500, and the class
hopes to leave Victrola in the
high school building in memory

Colorado produced more than
twice as much molybdenum in 1918
as was produced in the world in
1915, and is now prepared, under
favorable market conditions, to
produce more than twice as much
annually as it produced in 1918.
The uses of this rare metal are
being rapidly enlarged and when
a market is established that will
make its production uniformly
profitable this state should be the
source of perhaps one-half of the

WANT NEW COUNTY

A portion of Maricopa county is conducting a campaign for it's separ- ation from the mother county, and ex- pect soon to have enough signatures to go before the board of supervisors with petition calling an election to settle the matter. Maricopa county should not be partitioned at this time, nor in the remote future. Small coun- ties should be tabooed, as they create a heavy burden of taxation that has to be met by the taxpayer. The over head of small counties is almost as great as in the large counties, with out corresponding benefit. If each district would spend as much extra money as the new governemnt would cost it they would sustain much greater benefit. The excess political population would bring little but grief to town getting county seat and would add but little to its dig nifty.
