Indianola, the home of Simpson Cot- lege, is a village of over four thousand population and a county seat town, eighteen miles from lies Moines and about one thousand miles from New- ark. The college has a good endtiw- -ment-r is-loeated-on a beautiful eanTpus •of twenty-five acres with seven buiid- Httgs. A new gymnasium is now being built, at a cost of $45,000. The faculty \consists of twenty-three professors and teachers and during the school year •just closed instructed 883 students,, which includes the preparatory; music and commercial students, leaving\: pupiUfin the college department. ' Dr.' Strickland will enter upon his new duties in August, after spending, a little tinle inNewark. , _Indianola and Simpson College are \fortunate in getting . Dr. and Mrs! 'Strickland, for we are sure that this is a work to which he is well adapted and his wife willbe a source of gVeat help to him in his new work.- Mrs. Strick- land spent her girlhood in Newark. She graduated from Syracuse Univer- sity with the class of 1900 with very \high- honors and is one of the most highly ^ educated students of art who ever lived- in Newark. Before her marriage she was the Supervisor of Drawing and Art in one of the large, districts of greater New York, haying under her charge quite a\ number' of schools.

As a result of the findings the Albion village board of trustees is likely to take action, that will' abolish the al- leged death trap at that point. In his report of his findings Dr. Lattin says: Prom the evidence I find that Bar! •FrTflcholoy came to Ms death in the village of Albion about 12 o'clock ttooh on-March 29, 1910, from having the hpnesiof his skull and head crush- ed by having accidently came into contact with the Clarndon street over- head railroad bridge. . I find that the accident was wholly due to the low bridge maintained by the New York Central & Hudson River Railroad Company at said Clarendon street crosBtag, conjoined with, the Violation of the ordinance of the vil- lage- of Albion relating to speed of .trains. - \ .1 would most respectfully recom- mend that, immediate measures be taken to abolish the~ bridge uvertHe New York Central tracks on Claren- don street and that the same be re- placed by a grade crossing with a flagman stationed thereat, and.I would further advise that until Buch a time aB the above recommendations be- come a fact the trustees of the village of Albion enforce the present ordin- ance of said village relating to the speed of trains. ftfRTLE.

A Host Interesting WeeR For Our Gradu- ating Class—They Received Their Diplomas Tuesday Night. This has been commencement week.- The exercises opened Sunday, night at the Universalist cnurch, when a sermon was preached in honor of the class and concluded Tuesday night when the annual Commencement ejn»rcises were held at the opera house. The class this year numbers nineteen members, being one of the largest classes that was ever graduated from the Newarfc High School. 1896, up Until this year, has held the honor of being the largest class, as it consisted also of nineteen members. We understand that next year's class will not be so large and it may be sevj eral years before the records of the class of 1910 and 1896 can be equaled so far as members are concerned. Special services were held at the. Uni- versalist church Sunday evening in honor ofthejjraduating_c!ass of New- ark High school. The church was very elaborately decorated with wild: and garden flowers and a special pro- gramme of music had been arranged by the pastor and leader of the orches- tra, Charles Pialmatier. The ciass at- tended the services in a body, having previously met at the home of Judson Snyder, Mr, Palmatier's talk was very practical and out of the ordinary style of Baccalaureate sermons. He took his text from Prov. 4-7, \Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wis- dom; and with all thy getting get un* derstaiiding.\ In the course of his remarks he said: \Life's battles!\ Ji.h yes, they are before usall, First of all, we may say, -with— anotnert^'-^et-^yom^neainng^ Ask the question until it is answeredi what do I stami-for-f -What-Is my strik- ing forcei 1 Among- the forces #hich wln.in the^battles of life taaiy \be named \:adaptability.\ The prime pjuestipn is not hp^much do i know, but what can I do with what I know, VerV cToselyjrelated to the firstJhamed force is arjpther, \fevailabijlty;'* You are undeubtedly familiar with the feet of the exjstehce>pf thousands of people who know a,grsat-deal, i£-they could only thinlt'of it when they' wanted- It, but it seems: ,tp\Have. been, mislaid; at spme~eareless»m«menfei^Wiilea^reaoft erons memory is a jhpth'ersonie Bin;, drance, a deficiency ft naijlt.CommoK sense is wbrstpjE all.' rATffifary-:|oll-ipf diplomas^^wiH not insure success?'--'* -'-' - Thebpok of acts is the', best, diptema ;for ajfoungjnan-or woman. .TakeJipld; of humble things as though they weft great things, and by that tljey will * be- 1 Peterl come great. This leads me:to!Sav that' thepumpmg system. Yet, the world needs character and force and not mon- strosities of premature ripeness learning. probably Vanderbilt would say that honesty is one of the winning forces In life's battles, for it was he who de- clared that \ the secret of a wall street million is common ionesty;\ and he added as a recipe for a million, \ never use what is not your own, never buy _ what you cannot pay for, never sell The ptM« nff^^V 051 haven't gpt.\ There is no lf l - s better principle than this for the young men and young women to keep in view, who are about to. graduate, who are about to find their place among the busy millions of their race. We speak of this period in the histpry- ofschopl work as \commencement.\ The naihe is well chosen, Jor all that has been accomplished thus far is to give into your hands a few keys with which to unlock some of the possibil- ities which are fairing you success and happiness. The school is nothing, the diploma is nothing, these exercises nothing mmpnred to:thejnan or woman who is wearing your clothes. This brings 1 us to a brief word upon the last of, these forces by which you are to win. The name for that force is \ en-r thusiasm.\ . - Carry a full Head of steam. Don't bank the furnace fires of endeavor. En- thusiasm is the driving force of. char- acter. The measure of one's enthusi- asm, coupled with good sente, rflarks his conquering\ power. Every \great thought springs from a warm heart. Don't be a social fop, nor a social re- frigerator. Be Kind-, be generous and be determinedl; formany a prize is lost when a man loses hiS grip. There ' alwaye room for the men and 1 women Who are not for sale. Then do your part, feeling sure that faithful, conse- crated toil, pursued in the light of all' the knowledge that can be obtained is thesjBrjesr^besfcand-*nly^i^ay~-of'TSralF' i ingmen and women'Capable of secur- ing and enjoying the .real blessings and successes of life find the only way to mak|s themqiialified to meet life'shigh- est duties and obligations, or its sorest trials and misfortunes. On May 2 we gathered at the LeMay house, guests of Elizabeth LeMay and Msrjprie Hack, where Miss Frances Snyder by her attentive ear and ability to probe won, a high school banner which was a prke .giv^n for one of the many amusements afforded. ' We next gathered at Peggy Pitkin's where, after a bountiful dinner, cards and dancing were enjoyed. How Weill remember the Senior boys hearing a noise which they supposed to be Juniors, -running from the house and' returning with two unknown women, and the grave' mistake. which was made by Frank Wiebald, will always cling to him as a pleasant rememberance. On Friday, June 3, our class\ was en- tertained at Five Hundred at the home of Laird Van*Dyck, where the sleeping Juniors made their first appearance.* One of them, Roy Martin, was captured and taken into the house, minus his shoes and hat. He was. somewhat em- barrassed, andthe-Seniors, not wishing to make him weep, placed, him and his companion, Mr. Coykeridall, at a lone table in the corner of the room and per- mitted them to play solifiare, I also remember Cassie Roe, Seattle not leav- ing her enough of his samples 6t hosiery, reaching for one of the many prizes given for high score in Five Hun- dred, grabbeda hosieiy/box saying that she guessed she would take some hose as she needed some. Tuesday, June 7, was our banner day being entertained at breakfast at Bertha 1 0'Hara's where our .Senior songs and yells were prac- tised. At 10:55 We returned to the Hifeh School and competed with the Juniors in class spirit after which PrPf. Fort had the High School sing a farewell graduation-spng-to the'class;, At_4d911« 0 rt we took the limited ear for Rochester; 1 ^ at six o'clock were entertained at dinner our hosts being Robert Cuyler and Glenn \Colburn which after, our feed, our good humor again being regained, we were the guests of Alice McEvoy; Emma Vialls, Theresa Bobrowsky, Ruth'Tyler, Marie Hoschultz and Frank Wiebald at the l;yceum Theater attend- ing ths-play entitled \Sowing of the. Winds, after which Laird VaiiDyck In coming out of the theater pranced up to an unknown lady and taking her for one of the Senior girls, giveslier a little f oki, asked her, \ Who's yourfriend?\ rom that time on Laird was decidedly quiet. Last Monday the sleeping Juniors royally entertained us by a dance at Redmen's Hall, On Wednes- day p. m, Florence Short entertained ^s-r-.at«her i --hc«er-by-a^ichfK\~St\fBS place the Seniors forgot their dignity played Pom-Pom-PulI-way, Roast a Beef Behind YourBack'/Mummity Peg etc. all sorts of people, whether consciously or, hot, have their idealsi And the most, of us are cdmpliihing that We canopj- reach, our ideal.

Je^ rome Watters, president of the class, began the exercises with a welcoming speech..

I have perhaps no right to accuse Trim . of willful and intentional mis- representation, but in giving him credit for candor,' we: must accuse him of an inability to think clearly and an inabil-. ity to clearly interpret the plain provision^of a bill, for he makes the statement that \it\ (the Hin- \\^abolishes the stale, convention, which, as we have it now, consists of one thousand dele- gates-chosen just before the convention to make the nominations for state offi- cers and puts the naming of candidates for state oefflers into the hands of the State Committee of one hundred and fifty members, elected a year before, •and giving to them absolute, autocratic power in the matter of such nomina- tions,\ and again, he says: \This in- stead of making for Direct Nominations, Pitkin kissing (be :-gradu ttSrt**enooU again the renew their „._ the Junior President, and \bed b'lmoa thefronfcjwrch: W. looked at him with fond reconecttoir of our Ji when VM ducked Mr. eotkJn_^., We next attended t*W play eatttyi \ The Rivals\ Th Sbermaxv f^^ Houts, our host belnt Clauda t tier, where our Senior DraHUitlc took a few lessons which made thefr pbry a grand tuccata atlfarloa, A banqtsst at the Gardanier was next social A^Mttott, the bottsatat Mlttti Fraacet ittfttt and C< VI. ^ •.- , : - fass-matesj-l-told-them-that-my ability- -malfes-them-far-more-indirect-than they for looking into, the future was entirely- »_ n ™ >> a negative quantify; for at that time I really thought \t was so. Therefore until a few days ago, I feared very 'much,, that, unless some unforseen thing should happen, by: which I might be given a peep into the future, I should be unable to hold the name of .eiassjProphet^ : ' Wednesday, at the beginning of the Firemen's Convention, a bright idea flashed into my mind, and, realizing tbata crowd of people, such as would be here on the. following day, would, take in almost any fake deal, which, was put before them,.-I determined to dressasa Gipsy Fortune-teller and see what4might.be the outcome, so I dyed my hair a very dark color, darkened my eye-brpwsi painted my cheeks, and put oh a very^gtddy yellow dress, pro- fusely adorned-with spangles andjew- els, of every description imaginable. Then J put up my tent on Union street. You: see, I knew from former experi- ence, what an interest my class-mates' .hay* always shown in. anything mys- terious or uncanny, and therefore I hoped that each one might, sometime during; the day, be drawn to my tent. :They were, and I will now try to tell you what, I saw in the land of each one. Among the very first to come were two girls, one a little taller than the; other. They seemed Very eager to find out what their future might be, un- doubtedly because their school days were so soon to be ended, and they would both become young women of the world. I looked at the small, girl's hand first, and there I saw a number of wonderful happenings, saw there, that after her college days were -finished, she would secure a posi- tion as traveling-companion to a wealthy lady Pf middle- age; but' this sort of life was entirely!, too slow and she gave it up. After looking more in- tently at the lines of her band, all that seemed to come to my :view wasi race track, with crowds of people gathering abouf, looking, intensely into the dis- tance. I perceived a number of: auto- mobiles speeding down the track. As th?y drew nearer, the crowd cheered lustily, and the person in the leading car I thought must) be Barney- Oldfield of auto-race track\ fame, -But this con-, fused me very much for I could not understand what that man should have to do with the young lady, whose future I was attempting to forete'l. But as this car,which I perceived to be a Ford, flew by, I was- greatly asthonished to see that it wasn't Barney Oldfield at the wheel, but Instead, a lady of the house* Pf Snyder. I then took the other young lady's hand. Here I saw lines showing that she was to become a great society belie, finally ending in Newport and other places of prominence in the society world. She was to have many wooers, but none that suited exactly. She would then go upon the stage and con- tinue, the neat fame that others of the house of Booth had Acquired, and in hrttbftae great irfay—\Teh nights in a Ball Room,*? she would certainly be- come renowned. Shortly after, a young man, rather tall and with a very sober air, entered •nif fax* \B^t- his hshd \I saw that \he would become a close student of Web- ster, specialising In his many syllable words. Later en he would journey to Scotland, where he was to take up his residence and become Laird of North ,Pnelpi».'- • .

But the; trouble is the statement is not true. :Mr. Greenwood himself shows by stat- ing'certain provisions of the bill that it ;provides for the nomination of-all can- didates by direct vote of the people at the primaries and those provisions refute the former statement, that the. bill \puts the nomination of candidates for state officers into the hands of the state committee.\ In tieu.pt the statement above quoted, Mr, Greenwood, had he been bpth fair and able, would baVe stated that (he Hinman-Green bill provides that the State Committee shall simply designate: the names of candidates to be placed on; the primary, or caucus ticket, and that it also provides that one or more other lists of names of candidates, may .be placed on the ticket by petitjbn*and that theyroters are at liberty to exercise ti»ir choice of candidates by voting for whom they choose; but that in every instance the nominations must be made by the people voting directly for the candidates, Instead of Voting for the delegates to do the nominating for them. ••-'•' The framers of the bill realized that the primary ballot muBt either be blank, so far as candidates was concerned, or names must be j ofjtan alul | they, considered I ele^tedbhy the y wo.ufdjtfc qniti wisfiesjot their i aay^j|they »b votersjwbnld have-jS rep^la^ their llat^ 4«^twmuma thtf>L „ who;- P roi^^ a --biBirt.ti leg^^ffi!^ ,5!; ^ ' once.adpptedy: and It tmsBos eragr^al|^«joed,' _ Nominations s hllfttusfii&t?I natibnlppfi ( Andj^Wti^Bn to another 'rTe^says'rll^^ne men'hajiWrrii that tleyl.wjifnot vote''Jer3iAiSiSS what a .terrible vengene* i^weuid-fc^ Allow m*)jWsay to ld^'snctf,trW?tS mind' thatiiharbors •uch«fellnW&Ll3 tolerant ; in' : the extreme/ thailSs^h^ same^t^^6«s|^filflfe.^ \ then^flf^r# i!mS ^'' \ —= Wfia6i#o| shojISSfoisr' sI6nt-'^^_ wantsioiw&Kii hia^foaS biasedl-fdli to repri»isnt'.i Hff'1'nfel'e«fi5ifr3fs In-';cbhCl.asr«> let sys%j«1p|t, Ille^MJK do hpife i .do^|#| they --^ that Vegardits^oJ lbs ple.«n^Mpl tham'-tlftjr' handlldgamaiii, ••—- -*— or a,littie;co.'r«He of candiaitei^ltti DomlL-..., for legisiatlte-'posi'''''»t3!|l under^hd^.whom.th— cthat,. tUi.i „-_»i|6®ak>.t -alptSet'olW them^'aid.tn; outset Ist-ni, 73*5 MMC :<m- m 3ffl Miss Gu.sle Wallter'-ti|^j Treatment-Stood taa^^\ \\ Last Tuesday morning Miss Gussle Walker was taken to the mineral sprihifB at Alden, 18 miles southwest of Buffalo; B.
