Of other organizations and the enlarge

Of the scheme for representing real es-

On the question Of the city budget the
report says:
"In tho making of the city budget the
board has followed It's usual custom of
analyzing the expenditures OF depart
ments and bureaus and in making rec
concentrations looking to economy.
There can be no question that large

small increase over 1921 reflects the ef-
forts of the board in this direction.

In the proposed revision of the charter.

WANTS ZONE POWER DEFINED
5th Avenue Association starts Test
Case over Bfg Building.

The Fifth Avenue Association in a
statement issued yesterday points out
that its opposition to the erection of a
twenty-five story office building on the
site of the old Grand Union Hotel at
Forty-second street and Park avenue by
the Pershlng Square Corporation is
purely technical. The association de-
ciares that Il has opposed the applica-
tion TO put UP the skyscraper on juris-
dictional grounds and II desires to es-
tablish it's contention that the Board Of
Estimate and Apportionment Of the city
Is the only body that has a right to
amend the zoning law OF 1915 and its
amendments. and that the Board Of
Standards and Appeals. by virture of
the legislative act that created It. has
merely the power to make certain varia-
tlons of the law.

"DemOcracy's Workshop"
By Louis Edward Taubel

Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have witnessed during the past
few years many strange events. A
great war has threatened the civiliza-
ton of the whole world. Empires have
fallen which seemed as rocks in the
sea, standing unmoved for hundreds
of years. Emperors and kings have
fed, and institutions which seemed
almost invincible have disappeared as
if a huge hand had suddenly clutched
them from the face of the earth. Out
of the ruins new nations have sprung
up, making new governments of their
own, very much different from their
former autocratic kingdoms, and with
one accord they look to America, for
America is the home of Democracy.
What is Democracy? How has it
come to pass? Has it succeeded? they
ask. Abraham Lincoln has told us
what Democracy is, probably more
clearly than anyone else, when he
plead that this government of the
people, by the people and for the peo-
pie might not perish from the earth"
He vas pleading for Democracy-the
peoples government.
How did this government come to
pass? For the answer to this we must
look back into history and peep into a
certain long room in independence
Hall, Philadelphia, July 4, 1875. There
we see a group of earnest men debat-
ing the action of the colonies; upon
their shoulders rested the future of
America. There, on that day came the
Declaration of Independence-the be-
ginning of freedom and democracy.
How has Democracy succeeded?
To answer this we must see our coun-
try as it has grown. The thirteen
original colonies, after the terrible
struggle for freedom, Joined into one
union of individual states, with a
total population of thirteen million
people. Then in Jefferson's admins
tration the purchase of the louisiana
Territory doubled the possessions OF
the United States, and so on through
the years the country has expanded,
Dangerous wars have threatened it,
but always great men have arisen to
help tide over the danger, and, al
though our nation has been tried as
gold is tried, it has proved it's worth.
And to-day, 4S states in all, with a
population of one hundred and five
million people compose this nation
Can you imagine yourself high up in
an airplane-so high that you could
look down and see the whole country
spread out below you. Down beneath
you you would see the Mississippi
River, flowing through the center Of
the country, almost dividing it in half
The longest and greatest river in all

William Russell-Walter Sheldon,
They smile upon the girls-qui,e sci.

With Louis Edward early for class;

Class Poem
By William Rice

Wv
Dear Wildwood High School blythe
sea,
Most dear to all of you and me;
AS we are now about to leave
Most all the knowledge that we know,
We pledge you as we onward go
That our life's battles fairly won
Will be the aim of "Twenty-one."
OF things done here we wish to speak,
As to u merits We'll be most meek.
Defects, of course, we have not any
This we can prove by teachers many
Who pat us on the back and say,
your lesson learn this very day,
For If you don't We'll mark you down.
Come now then chase away that
frown.'
But we must come back to the class,
Conceited boys and winsome lass.
There's many stories that we could
But maybe not is just as well.
So we're content to just jot down
The names we known will win re-
nOwn-
The names you'll hear from any day
As they make good on life's pathway.
Well put them all right in a verse,
And while the languages somewhat
terse,
You'll have to take it Is it is
For we are strictly out for biz,
And were you with us for awhile
You'd know we hardly ever smile,
Unless our teachers make a break

Baccalaureate Sermon

The high school auditorium was
packed on the evening of Sunday,
June 5th by the combined congrega-
lions of all the Protestant churches
in wildwood.
The music was directed by Miss
Laura Gaskill, assisted by Miss Marion
B%rineshults 1T the piano.
The graduating class marched in by
twos and took seats in the front OF
the house. The girls were dressed all
in white and the boys wore dark bust
ness suits. The combined choirs sat
on the platform, 20 women in the front
row and seven men, besides the speak
ers, in the rear.
Rev. Irwin Fisher announced Hymn
No. ~. There followed a duet by
Esther Stein and Mary Martin.
Rev. Dougherty read the n hun
bred and tenth Psalm.
Marie Huppert sang a solo. Mr..
Fisher made a plea for the collection
which was followed by the hymn,
America the Beautiful"
Rev. Paul Hob, of the Holy Trinity
Lutheran church, preached the bacca-
laureate m In the beginning
of his talk he mentioned the closing
lines of the 1921 Glass Poem by Will
liam Rice, which were:
$50 when the end of the World
comes round,
You'll find that we are upward
bound"
and also the Glass Prophecy by Flor
ence Ingersoll. He said that while
these two examples of the literary art
were written in a light vein, he would
endeavor to put the same idea in
more serious light. His text was the
forty-eighth verse of the twenty-sec-
ond chapter (the last chapter) of the
first Book of Kings:
"Jehosophat made ships Of Thar
shish to go to Ophir for gold; but
they went not; for the ships were
broken at Eziongeber."
He likened these ships to our Ships
of Hope which we build so carefully
and are so often wrecked before they
OsOi AOdfC tAO ways. Illo ulcSSdSc u
the graduating class was to be pre-.
pared for the disappointments of life
and to the older people, to carry on
in spite of the disappointments.
After the sermon the choir sang
"Send Out Thy Light" Rev. Jane,
Clarke led in a word of prayer. TIL,
congregation sang the Hymn O
Thanksgiving on page 55.
Mr.. Fisher pronounced the Bene
diction.
