SCHOOL BELLS SILENT.


The graduation exercises on Friday
night marked the close of another sue
cessful year in our schools. Thirty
seven young men and women success
fully completed their high school course
and will launch out to higher learning,
business, farming and other vocations
] and professions. The same opportuni-
ties were offered 60 all, Some have
profited more by their contacts with
their teachers and fellow students than
others and are thus better fitted to con-
tinue in the race ahead. All have been
trained to be good citizens and much
will be expected from them.
Wesley Martin received the highest
average mark during his high school
career and was therefore chosen to de-
liver the valedictory address which he
did in well chosen words with clear de-
livery.
Helen Brown ranked as the student
receiving the second highest average
mark and was consequently chosen to
deliver the address of welcome. This
she did in pleasing way.
AS president of the class, Bernard
Schil presented the memorial which
the class left to the entire community
in the form of the 1922 edition of the
high school annual, The Pointer. The
publication of this yearbook would have
been impossible without the financial
assistance of the class
Prof. Harry Glicksman of the Uni
versity of Wisconsin delivered the adj
dress to the graduating class. lie
stressed strongly the idea of finding
one place and then fitting ones self to
fill the place. He showed that in the
mind is either scientific, practical or
literary or a combination thereof. His
address was well received by the class.
Helen Martin and Marion Huxtable
sang a commencement song which was
greatly appreciated by the audience.
DR.. w. M. Gratiot presented the
graduates with their diplomas in his
usual pleasing manner. He also showed
a picture of the proposed high school.
Rev. Schoenfeld spoke the invocation
and pronounced the benediction.

Complications Mt Mudania

HWERGENT reasons are assigned for the
IL temporary suspension Of the conference
at Mudania That there has been at least Il
momentary break is definitely confirmed by
dispatches from Constantinople, to which
place the allied generals have returned for
conference with the high commissioners.
Reports Of the day before indicating Il ten
tativc agreement on the terms OF an armis-
ticG are now shown to have been premature
and unauthorized. There has been no
agreement, and an incomplete statement re-
ceved at London from General Harrington
discloses IAN unsatisfactory condition OF
aifairs'
One account OF the temporary separation
at Mudania mentions the evacuation OF Con-
stnntinoplc as the issue upon which Il di-
vision has arisen. London, however. has
been informed that the unreadness OF
Greek spokesman to commit themselves
without instructions from Athens is the
principal cause for the interruption. Still
another survey OF the situation declares
upon the authority OF General Harrington
that the allies ARE having the greatest diff
culty negotiating with the Angora repre-
sentative on the all-important questions OF
CEanak ana ThTacc.' Tho fact that the
allied generals have reassembied at Con-
stan'inopie for another parley among them
selves, and with the high commissioners
indicates very plainly that the Nationalist
nave introduced something unexpected, and
that the allied agents had not come TO Il
full understanding in their own camp be-
fore going to Mudania
IN the meantime, hope for a speedy set
tlement-or patching up-has been en-
couraged by the Turkish reply to the allied
proposal Of n general Near Eastern peace
conference. kcmai's note. characterized
by the best Turkish flavor in politcncss. is

Not Pointing Forward

to State Senator Garrett is credited tbo

Farmers and the Sparrow

HE Department OF Agriculture has is
sued bulletin dealing with birds that
are or value to the farmer in which there IS
put in u good word for the English spar
row. The report on birds was prepared by
w. Il. McAtee. government ornithologist.
POINTING out that tho English sparrow is
81 scientifically destroyed everywhere as a
pest the governments ornithologist notes
that II leeds on number of destructive
insects, among them the scvcntc cen year To-
Gust, asparagus beetle, locust leaf miner
'cht caterpillar canker worm, army worm
ana drop worm. This suggests a value Of
the sparrow to the crop grower, but 1t will
be diiticult to convince the great majority
or farmers and gardeners that the birds
value as an insect destroyer is not ire
mendousiy offset by the damage wrought in
other respects. Not only do English SPAR
rows often ruin entire crops, but they drive
OH many birds that moro efficient bug
destroyerS' i'll some instances, than they
are. OF course. every bird is valuable to
man in certain respects, but that does not
necessarily imply they all do moro good
than harm
So we take it. if tho purpose OF the de-
partmcnt in including the English sparrow
in the list OF valuable insect destruycrs is

to lct-up in their warfare on II, 1t will have
10 make q better showing in its favor than
II has so far done. II, perchance proof
could be presented to tho farmer that the
sparrow is not ayerso to feeding on boil
weevils, the trick would be turned and in
stead OF being Systematically destroyed. it
would be encouraged to multiply and feed
at will on every farm in the cotton belt
