Where Blame Lies.

Life starts most of US out with an
excellent endowment of strength. 1t
is our own abuse of this strength that
brings about our ailments. Life starts
most of us out with courage and will.
1t is our own neglect Of these quail

ling. Life starts most Of US with very
good looks or with looks that are good
enough. 1t is our own neglect Of per-
sonal care that makes Us plain look

Rev. Mr.. Abel Delivers Ad-

Last Night
sV special correspondent.

~ Special correspondent
SOUTH AMBoY, June 23:-Last
divine service in the John Street
Methodist Episcopal church and
heard an address that was equal to
any grafton eve delivered in this
city. The pastor, Rev. G.. w. Abel,
seemed to talk right INTO the heart
of his hearers and gave not only the
graduates bit all present, who had
come to honor the graduates, a good
deal of fine advice.
He took as his text There Go the
Ships" taken from the 104th Psalm,
26th verse. He told the graduates to
liken their lives to a great ship Just
starting out on a long voyage of life.
A ship Is likely to meet with storms
and misfortunes, so Is our life; q ship
can be wrecked, so can our lives, and
1t was with this thought in mind that
the address was rendered. He advised
the graduates first to have a destina-
ton. All ships starting out on a voy-
age have a port in mind. He told the
graduates to aim high and make
their port one of good things. Plan
your life work and plan it carefully
as to detail. All ships have a chart
to guide them on their voyage to the
port of their destination. He advised
those present to take as their chart
on h voyage of life the Holy Bible.
All ships in entering or leaving a port
must have a pilot; he suggested that
they take Jesus Christ as their pilot
through life.
During the evening two splendid
solos were rendered by Robert P.
Mason. A song service preceded the
main address.
The huge auditorium was splendid
ly decorated in the class colors OF
blue and gold as well as the school
colors of purple and gold. At the
front of the church in huge gold let
tiers were the words. @Wecome Glass
of 1919" Flowers were present in
abundance while the American flag
was also very much in evidence.
The graduates met in the lecture
room of the church before the serv-
ice and entered in a body when all
the congregation were seated. As an
honorary escort were the members of
the high school faculty as well as City
Superintendent of Schools o. o. Barr.
The graduates are Margaret
Brown, Alva Buckalew, Claire Cecilia
Donnelly,~ Dora Forgotson, Florence
Nieltopp, Ruth Nilsson, Raymond
Perkins, Marie Shaw, Francis Tomas
zewski. Blanche Brinamen, Clarence
Davis, Luther Allen Compton,, Henri
eta Dieker, Beatrice Selover and
