THE GRADUATING CLASS.

Today commencement exercises will
be held in the high school auditorium
at which fourteen pupils will gradu-
ate, bidding farewell forever to the
institution of learning wherein they
have spent so many pleasant, and We
trust, profitable years. These young
ladies and gentlemen have completed
their studies insofar as they can be
carried through the public school.
They compose most creditable, clean
outstanding body of young people on
the very threshold OF life. Their flu
ture, and what they make of that flu
ture, is all before them. 1t is the age
Of castle building, and no doubt each
and every one Of them nave some goal
ahead of them in their minds eye to
which they aspire to reach. We know
not what may be their future inten-
tons. Some, probably will seek more
knowledge in higher schools OF educa-
ton, others will elect to be satisfied
with the high school course and will
seek mean sof livelihood. Whatever
their objects and aims in life may be
and they should be high, those aims
and objects are attainable with per-
sistent effort and application. There
is hardly anything impossible to the
man or woman who goes in to sur
mount every obstacle and is not dis.
c0uraged by failures at the very be-
ginning. But each and every one OF
these young people SHOULD bear in
mind that there is no primrose path
to success. Fortune and hOnors do
not come to the sluggard. Opportun-
ity is always open to the intelligent,
the honest, the Industrious, but the
key to opportunity is work. Nothing
can be obtained in this world without
labor and the man or woman not
willing to put his or her shoulder to
the wheel will be left behind In this
race Of life. AS they go forth upon
their several ways the Gazette ex-
tends congratulations to the gradu-
ating class, may they one and all live
long and useful lives. full OF honors,
prosperity and happiness, and when
at last they are summoned hence, ac-
cording TO the immutable laws OF ma
ture, may they have so lived and
walked in the ways Of the Lord that
they may be numbered among the
blessed

THE GOLDEN RULE.

Under date of May IL the Puyallup
Valley Tribune, published at Puyallup
Washington, twenty page 'Kiwanis
Edition." most creditable publica-
ton both in typographical appearance
and interesting contents. Kiwanis
Clubs are something after the nature
of Commercial Clubs, Community
Clubs, Chambers of Commerce, yet
something different. In their activi-
ties they do not attempt to cover all
the ground that is supposed to be
worked by Commercial Club in a
community, but they take up certain
lines and what is more to their cred
Most of the larger towns and cities of
the state can boast of Kiwanis Clubs,
and they are powerful factor for
advancing the best interests of the
towns in which they exist. AS we UNI
derstand the rules of the organization
the membership is limited to two rep
resentatives of each profession, bust
ness line, craft and industry. The
clubs are generally made up princip-
ally of the younger men OF commu-
nifty, at least that is the way it struck
US when attending regular luncheon
given by the Kiwanis Club of Spokane
a year or two ago. The gathering was
made up of bright intelligent, hust-
ling young men and they not only cut
out work to be done but the commit
tees appointed to the several tasks
were expected to do it and taey do.
Among the contributors to the Puyal-
lup Valley Tribune's special kiwanis
edition was our old townsman, p. Nj.
Snider, assistant cashier Citizens
State Bank, who writing under the
head of THE Golden Rule" says:
The golden rule" has been an ideal
discussion and striven for since
Christ first spoke the magic words
two thousand years ago. A few have
had the faith to put it into practice,
but to do SO they too often mad to face
misunderstanding and ridicule-even
persecution. The great mass Of hu-
hanity considered the Golden Rule as
simply an impractical idea-a WON
derful phrase but impossible to live;
a beautiful picture to look upon but
only to be forgotten as one turned
from the picture to the practical"
things Of life,-a message from an
other world, but not workable in this
one.
Looking backward, however we
find that ii was not the so-called
practical" people who have lifted
humanity most. They simply lived
small, uneventful lives, circumscribed
by fear and by custom. The most
practical help the world has receiv-
ed has been from the hands of great
souls who were, in their day, regard
ed as impractical. Our own govern
ment was founded by men who We're
actuated by what many considered to
be impractical ideals. But behold how
it is standing the severest test to
which any nation has ever been sub
jected and yet survived.
The teachings of Christianity have
become so universal that the time has
arrived to interpret them, not only in
the church but likewise in the marts
|of business. The great international
kiwanis organization is one express
sion of that attempt to Christianize,
ito humanize business relations. This
does not mean that every member of
the kiwanis Club understands the
spiritual forces underneath the or
ganization; nor does it mean that all
who do understand these forces al

PRIMARY ELECTION.

The primary election at which is to
be chosen candidates for congress to be
voted on at the general election in
September takes place Tuesday, June
10, and that is only three weeks from
next Tuesday, leaving only shOr,
time for campaigning. TIE Fifth con-
gressional district covers considerable
territory embracing as it does Spo-
kane, Pend Oreille. Stevens, Ferry
Okanogan, Chelan, Douglas, Grant and
Lincoln counties, and it will keep the
various candidates for nomination on
the wing constantly up to the day of
the primary election trying to cover
that ground and at the very best only
small percentage of the voters can
be metspersonally.
There will be no lack of candidates
upon the republican ticket to choose
from as no less than seven have filed
for the office, while only two demo-
Gratis have developed an ambition to
step into Judge Webster's shoes, pro-
vided they have the opportunity to
try them on. Each and every one OF
the republican candidates are worthy
citizens. and would fill the office with
honor to the district and credit to
themselves IL nominated and subse-
quently elected. The following are
names OF the republican candidates:
State Senator Reba Hurn, Spokane
Representative Daniel Morgan, Spo-
kane.
State Senator Charles Myers, Da.
venport.
State Senator L. L. Westfall, Spo-
kane.
Harry Rosenhaupt. Spokane.
Thomas Cookery, Spokane.
City Commissioner Maurice Smith
Spokane.
The democrats are:-
II. c. Harris, Spokane.
Judge Sam b. Hill. Waterville.
One of the republican candidates
on the republican ticket is woman
Miss Reba Hurn, who served as state
senator in the last legislature and
made an enviable record Her enter
ing the race very much complexities
sAi"esS' . oht ico'Co thS Wise guys VIII
are generally out predicting the indi-
vidual strength of candidates very
much up in the air. With the vote
split up among seven candidates Miss
Hurn is liable to leave mere men trail
ing in the rear. Much depends upon
how seriously the women voters may
tIke Miss Hurn's candidacy. Should she
be nominated and then elected the
people of the Fifth district would have
a representative in congress that they
would never have reason to feel
ashamed of. Three of the republican
candidates Myers, Rosenhaupt and
Cookery, have been candidates before
the primary election for the same Of
flee before, and Mr.. Rosenhaupt went
down to defeat at one time after lay-
ing secured the nomination. With such
a bunch of entries lined up at the wire
sufficient interest should be aroused
in the primary TO draw out an unu-
sually large vote. Democrats will not
have so much difficulty in making
choice as theer are but two candidates

A press dispatch from the east

which would indicate that times are
improving and more money is spent
for Injuries than was ever known. Pa
pers that publish such dispatch are
liable to be called down hard by mar
row minded, pin-head politicians of
the democratic faith who will raise a
howl that this is direct reflection

Dispatches from all over the country
state that there is revival of BUSH
ness, increase in Manufactured pro-
ducts, labor is employed at the highest
wages and a general condition Of pros
perity prevails. This reads pleasantly
but there must be some mistake about
the reports. 1t is impossible for one to
believe that any evidence of prosper
ity exists in the face of the constant
assertions of political crabbers and
crepe hangers who insist that there
is no such thing as prosperity.
