Last Evening

The annual graduating exercises OF
the Eagle River High School took
place at the opera house last evening
and at the close of the program
class of twenty, one, of the largest
in the history of the school were pre-

they had successfully passed the re

........................--....-..... Mr.. Marshall
The class as a whole deserve much
credit for the individual efforts put
forth that resulted in bringing about
their final success as students of the
Eagle River High School and it is
evident that they had worked hard
and faithfully during the four years
since they first became Eagle
Highs"
The faculty also, Principal H. E.
Marshall who had been with the class
during its entire high school career,
and his assistants Misses Hanf, Golf,
Bard and Beerbaum, had much to do
in bringing the class to the desired
goal, fact well appreciated by the
class which will in later years look
back with admiration upon their high
school instructor force.
The opera house was tastefully
decorated in the class colors of Purple
and Gold with Yellow and Purple
Violets as the class flower.
The last of the school year has been
a busy one with all of the various
commencement activities and comes
to a close tonight with the annual
commencement dance at the opera
house.

MEMORIAL DAY WAS
FITTINGLY OBSERVED
Despite Rain American Legion
Conducted Splendid Pro-
gram Concentrating
Sacred Holiday

Notwithstanding that the obser-
vance of Memorial Day was handicap
ped by heavy rain that fell the
night before and continued for most
of the day, the program arranged by
the American Legion in honor of the
soldiers dead was carried out as
nearly as possible All business
places were closed for the entire day
and at 1000 a line of march was
formed to go to the cemetery, led by
the Eagle River band, followed by
an auto carrying E. A. Croker, the
only Civil War Veteran present.
Next came a car with r. ]. Strong,
John Shattuck, Gus Rantz and Fred
Price, representatives of the survivors
of the Spanish-American War. Then
passed by in uniform. twenty or more
of those who served their country
during the World War They were fol
lowed by cars containing Women
workers Of the Red Cross. Camp Fire
girls and school children.
At the cemetery, Rev. w. J. Wilson
of Appleton made an impressive adj
dress on the significance of Memorial
Day. He was followed by Edward
Drager speaking for the American
Legion on its aims, duties of the or
ganization and its desire to assist in
everlasting perpetuation of the day
consecrated to heroes of all past wars.
All in all, the days program was
very successfully carried out and had
the weather permitted the attendance
would have been much larger. AS it
was, the Legion are to be highly com
mended for their action and activity
in making Memorial Day, one to do
honor to the men who at one time or
another fought and died on battle
fields that others might benefit from
their sacrifice.

SPLENDID ADDRESS

Fir. Rice has always been popular
with Eagle River audiences and his
address to the class of 20 last even
ing was one that contained food for
thought by every parent, as to the
duties they owe to themselves, their
children and not by any means least
to the public school teachers, in in
structing their children in habits of
obedience, and courtesy at home in
stead of leaving them mainly to their
teachers to instill or correct.

HAVE A HEART

The following circular letter has
been sent out from the Office of Di-
vision Highway Engineer Sergeant
today and should be read with atten-
ton by auto drivers and its sugges-
lions carefully observed The letter
says:
Eve have a good many road i'm
provements under way and will have
practically all our crews, both con-
tractors and day labor outfits, work
ing within the next few days, and we
wish to, at this time, caution auto
drivers to slow up for all construc-
ton work and take their time in
getting by the construction crews, so
as not to cause confusion and acct
dents
All construction crews are in
structed to keep their work in as
good shape as is possible, but you
must remember that it is impossible
to rebuild road without tearing up
the old roadbed Transfers and truck
drivers, on construction, are in
structed to hold their positions on
the work and let passing rigs take a
place in the line to get through the
work. We realize that this slows up
traffic to a certain extent, but it only
means minute or two for each auto,
while if the construction crew had to
stop and get out of the way for every
passing car, it would mean hours for
them every day, and that would mean
much less road built for the money
expended.
with our present system of main
tenance you should pass patrolman
about every seven miles. In order for
these men to keep their sections in
proper shape, it is sometimes neces-
sary for them to drive on the left side
of the road Please remember that
this work is being done for your
benefit and not for the pleasure of
the patrolmen. He works all day in
your dust and it is hard for him to
hear your horn when he is riding on
grader and impossible for him to
drive off the road for every passing
automobile, even if he could do SO
without leaving a ridge of dirt or a
rough spot in the road. Give him
chance. Slow up and get around him
the best way you can and say Hello,
Bill" instead of fbawling him OUT for
being in your way.
There are still a good many bad
spots and dangerous turns in our
roads that we have not been able to
improve with funds available We
are trying to get all dangerous places
marked with warning signs and re-
quest that yod watch out for and heed
these warnings
