BLACK LEG LOSSES

Black Leg has made its appear
ance in the western end of the
Ireland community and people in
the community and especially that
section that have not vaccinated
stock recently or have stock under
two years of age on the farm,
should be on the lookout for the
disease.
1t is probably true that nearly
everyone in that section, especially
the older residents, have taken
care of the situation by keeping
the young stock vaccinated, but
new people coming in may not
know of the situation, and hence
this warning. 1t might be possible
that no further losses would accur,
but the loss Of one individual would
more than offset the cost of vac
cination of a number of head, and
we suggest that immediate steps
be taken to protect anything that
has not been taken care of by vac
cination.

Perhaps the greatest tribute ever
paid to the memory of a mother is
this from the lips of Abraham Lin
coin. And its greatness lies in Lin
coins greatness. The mother who
instilled in his childish spirit the
principles of justice, mercy and
charity and the will to struggle
for those principles deserves the
place in our hearts which we give
to Nancy Hanks Lincoln. Her
-yearnings were consumated in the
life of her son.
This has ever been the joy of
mothers-to find their own salts
faction in the success that comes
to their children. For this they sac
ricice health, time and pleasure.
They do not ask an equal return.
Their selflessness seeks no direct
reward.
Few are the children who real
lie the constant self-denial which
mothers make for their sake-do
not realize it until they have
children of their own-and then it
is often too late.
Mothers Day was instituted not
only as formal honor to mothers,

COMMENCEMENT
MANY are the classes that have

AZ graduated amid the admiring
"ohs" and "ahs" of admiring rel
atives, amid a flutter of new
dresses, piles of graduation pres
ents, and few surreptitious tears.
But every year, the miracle hap
pens anew. High school youngsters
are transformed into men and wo-
men. They leave behind those good
old school days land enter into the
grownup world. Some go to college
some into business, and some
wait around until the right man
comes along. Friendships welded
by constant association since the
grammar school days are broken
off. f.. .
Children often wonder why the
important day is called Commence
ment, when it seems the end of
everything. Commencement is a
door that swings both ways. 1t
opens upon the world, revealing
possibilities of success and failure,
happiness, and sorrow, but never
theless a reckoning world. And it
closes upon the sequestered life of
high school, the miniature world of
intimate friendships.
Nothing has a beginning without
ending a previous phase. We may
look with regret upon the passing
of high school days, look back up
on them through the rosy haze of
years, but we will find that with
commencement we outgrow high
school ways, and are more fitted
for adult life. s ~ - s.a
To the class of 1880, we extend
congratulations for the splendid
record they have made, and best
wishes for success in the life they
are entering. ~. 5z.

GOLF AND FRIENDSHIP
MODERN business is more

A'A more demanding friendliness
between cities. No longer does a
town withdraw itself within a tur-
reted wall and poke an admoni-
tory halberd against the tummy of
each stranger that braves the city's
gate. Our common destiny binds us
closely together that we have to
cooperate, not squabble.
Golf, which is fast supplanting
baseball as the national sport, is
doing as much to foster friendship
between the business men of neigh
boring towns as Kiwanis and Com
mercial clubs. The four city
matches which are being played
this spring between Pasco, Walla
Walla, Waitsburg and Kennewick
have made for a more sound I'M
derstanding between these COM
munities. One gets closer to his
neighbors cussing down the fair
way than using trite phrases
around the formal council table.
Along with golf as a solidifier of
inter-city good will, there is an
other recreational problem. The
machine age is fast bringing on
the shortening of working hours,
leaving man with an unaccustomed
amount of leisure time on his
hands. He will have to learn to
play. Organization of kitty-ball and
baseball teams helps to fill in the
gap between closing time and bed
time. It's recreational value is
great. Not only does it take mans
mind off his business, but it gives
him exercise and sportsmanlike
companionship. 1t turns back the
clock and gives him his boyhood
again for a refreshing moment.
