THE HIGH SCHOOL COMMENCE.
MENT

The 33rd Annual Commencement
of the Hays High School was cele-
brated complimentary to both the
teachers and the ''roll of honor"
If anybody asks you, say that in
the opinion of the Free Press the solo
by Miss Bessie Tillotson was bril-
liant performance for a young grad
uate of her age.
In one of Prof. Malloy's humorous
sallies he declared that the boys can
not sing, but the double quartette
that sang "Until the Dawn" put that
notion to rest for good and all
The event of the evening was the
address by Prof. H. L. Kent who is a
fluent and Informing speaker He
opened his address by making "a
strong contrast between the class roll
Of the evening and the large conting-
ent of young people outside who are
indifferent to the future, who are
without ambition, choosing rather to
be hewers of wood and drawers of
water than educated citizens of in
fiuence and power in the community:
he emphasized courtesy as one of the
shining accomplishments of the edu-
Gated mana savoir faire of the
young gentleman going forth to seek
his fortune in a world crowded with
competitors eager for the honors in
the race of life; the chances are good
he went on to say, that young man
who is a boor in the classroom will
developTapidly in that direction once
he is outside and free to follow his
inclinations, soon to be overtaken by
the realization that all his contempor-
aries have advanced in life, hOnored
among their fellows, heads of inf1u-
entail families, while he has remained
at the dead level whence he started;
how, he asked, are we in the laying Of
a foundation for a useful career, to
become efficient? By planning care
fully for the employment of our lels-
ure hours; there is such a thing as
creditable leisure; off duty hours can
be made profitable as well as joyous;
shun folly and vain babblers. Who
are the wise ones of earth? Those
who hunger and thirst for knowledge,
who have self-respect and an honor
able ambition.

THE NEW CABINET IN WESTERN
EYES

How did President Harding equip
himself to solve the endless variety
of problems bequeathed to him by his
predecessor? Did he live up to the
promise Of surrounding himself with
the best minds of the nataion?
Undoubtedly he satisfied the wishes
of all thinking Americans when he
selected Charles Evans Hughes to
head the cabinet as secretary of state
and turned the commerce portfolio
over to Herbert Hoover. If Hoover
and Hughes, working in close cooper
alton and with a reasonably free
hand, can't achieve results, nobody
can.
Mellon of the Treasury is an able
financier; ex-senator Weeks should
have no difficulty in running the War
Department; DENLY of the Navy is
an unknown quantity in the West;
Wallace should make good with the
Department of Agriculture and Hays
is distinct improvement upon Burle-
son. Daugherty's qualifications as a
lawyer are in doubt, but with the aid
of good assistance he should have
little trouble in wiping out the mem
ory of Mitchell Palmer. Secretary
Davis of the Labor Department is the
handsomest member of the Cabinet,
but his contributions to the solution.
of the labor problem will be neglig-
bile.
The appointment of greatest i'm
mediate interest to the Far West is
that of Senator Fall of New Mexico
who for the next four years>will have
| charge of the public domain. Sen
ator Fall is an unreconstructed,
frankly acknowledged standpatter,
whose power has it's roots in the old
style domination of corporations i'm
New Mexico politics. His tireless,
almost brutal attempts to drag the
United States into war with Mexico
constituted his principal senatorial
labors. He believes in the immediate
distribution of the public domain; /;
wise conservation of national re-
sources, conservation of the kind car
ried out by Franklin K. Lane, is hate
full to his every instinct.
Yet. if Hughes, Hoover and Mellon
succeed in their great world task,
/ minor shortcomings of the new Ad-
ministration will be forgotten.-Sun-
| set.

THE RED CROSS AT THE HIGH
SCHOOL AUDITORIUM

The value of the Red Cross can be
shown by adverting to a few brief
historical facts:
Delaney, a young newly married
officer on Wellington's staff, following
his General during the progress of
the Battle of Waterloo, was struck
by a cannon ball and thrown violently
from his horse, mortally wounded.
He was taken to an unoccupied room
in the hamlet where he fingered in
agony for some days. WellingtOn's
medical chief, a coarse, obstinate
brute, gave the wounded man indif-
ferent attention. The loss of blood
and the frightful nature of the wound
presaged the end and called for mercy
but 'bleed him" said the brutal sur
geon, after the ignorant professional
manner of his time. The wounded
man, white with the palor of death,
cried to be spared; no, 'bleed him."
was the response, and they bled him
of the last drops of the vital fluid.
The wounded mans young wife was
brought hastily to his side from Ant
werp where he had placed her for re-
fuge till the result of the battle was
known; the poor, helpless young wife,
alone and unassisted, did what she
could. At the end of a very few days
she saw her husband buried in the
cemetery at Brussels. You can draw
vour own contrast to the humane de-
votion shown by the Red Cross of
today on the battlefield.
Florence Nightingale was the avant
courier of the modern nurse on the
battlefield. She volunteered to nurse
the wounded and sick in the field
hospitals of the allies in the Crimea
in 1856. Filth, disease, confusion,
neglect and inadequate supplies
awaited her coming. She has de-
clared that she found instances where
the hungry mind-wanderig patients

Self-supPorting Holidays Popular
CHERRY ripe" is the latest thing
in vacations! Formerly the girl who
lacked money to take a holiday,
stayed at home Now she hikes out
and earns it, fun and all.
Under the supervision of the Y
W. C. A, girls are going out to camp
to pick cherries and other fruits for
farmers. In Door County, Wisconsin,
next July, a camp of one hundred and
fifty girls will occupy new barracks
built for their occupancy near the
orchards. Payment from the farmers
for cherry picking pays the girls
expenses and gives them pocket
money besides.
Assisted by college girls as recre-
ational leaders, Miss Ethel Troy Of
the Town and Country Department
of the Y. w. C. A, is to be camp ex-

cation of milk and the preparation

ica.'
Rev. Father Julius o. NJ. Cap. made

life of being mindful of little things
and the necessity of being punctual
and accurate, as the little things go to
make. the great things of life
Mr.. Louis Christensen spoke brief
" to the children, congratufaating
them on the opportunity they had and
the Importance of the work of the
Little Mothers League. In cOnclu-
sion Rev. Father Jerome presented
the certificates of attendance to the
children and also rewarded the Little
Mothers Leaguers by presenting them
each with a diploma.

that had been very successful.

Coming down to our Civil War,
surgery had made a marked advance,
but was far below the heroic triumphs

heroism which is the crowning glory
