aspirations. AS an Adonis, he is as
true as the needle to the pole-in
fact, not half has yet been told.
Oran Thornton has strictly obeyed
the injunction of Shakespeare, Give
every man thy ear, but few thy
voice." And yet, deep waters often
flow with gentle ripple, and silence
is the companion of wisdom. To Oran
Thornton, falsity is an alien-and
pulses heart of purest gold.
The last on our roll is that splen-
did young man, Jewett Wheeler
the Chesterfield and prince charming
and charmed-of our class. Manly
and genial, he bears his honors east
ly.
The past history of the Training
School is all that could be desired.
Many, many of her students have
achieved distinction and success in
life-many, too numerous to men
ton, unheralded but with constant
purpose, have played, are playing, a
vital and efficient role in the drama
of life.
In the past Worlds War, our serv-
ice flag bore eloquent tribute to the
u. C. T. s. Four and forty of our
boys entered the service of their
country, and to their country COM
mitted their talents, their energies,
and their lives. They were all he
roes, and as such we honor them,
and each of them; for they have hon
ored and still honor us. OF this num-
Der, one was Major General, one is
Major and another is Captain in
the United States Army.
But listen! hear the bugle blast!
Call the roll! The heroes answer:
Here! Here! Here! And then hear
the name of William Marshall
Wright. No answer comes! The 81
lent dead speak but in mute appeal!
And then / hear voice that thrills
my soul! 1t is the voice of sweet,
sunny Italy! Beneath our sacred
sod lies William Marshall Wright.
Each day the warm radiance of an
Italian sun basks DER his honored
grave. Each night the stars vie as
proud sentinels DER this hallowed
mound He is our frienA-our COM
rade--our brother"
And then l hear the name of Mil
ton Talley! No answer comes! The
silent dead see not, neither do they
hear! But hear the voice of bonnie
Scotland, as she says: America, the
cowardly fiends of hell, under cover
of the sea, have slain thy son. The
sea, in her wrath, and the winds, in
their fury, revolted, and cast thy
dead on a friendly shore. Tenderly,
lovingly and in sorrow, we buried
him on Scotland's soil. Thus hon
ored, we gave him back to you" And
to-day, Milton Talley sleeps in the
land of the brave and true.
And then, the name of Chester
Holloman is called-but he sleeps the
sleep that knows no waking-never
again will he answer the call to
arms. In the flower of life, he died
at Camp Taylor-and wrapped in his
country's flag-the drapery of honor
and glory-he sleeps in his native
soil.
And then the name of Don Dixon
Corum is called. The still hush of
death answers, mot here-he died at
Camp Mills, in New York" And yet
he lives-for truth was the jewel of
his soul.
O, Memory! Sweet Memory,
With the fragrance of the past,
Like eternal Truth,
Will forever last.
Write high on the scroll of fame,
these four names!

Eye Lashes NoLD
Placed on Sale
To Aid Women

New York, May 24.-Ladies' eye
lashes have become saleable articles.
The dressing table in milady's boudoir
may now be adorned, in addition to
numerous things that admirers assume
to be natural, with artificial lashes
that paste on right over the regular
ones.
This innovation in feminine attrac-
tiveness was on display here today at
the American Ladies Hair Dressing
assoe citation exhibition. Other nature
savers included a half bobbed wig to
cover old fashioned long hair, thus re-
lieving the necessity of cutting.
