SCHOOL WORK VITAL, HOWARD TELLS CLASS - (Continued rrczn fag Ooa in 1029, and a four hundred per cent Increase in the circulation of five of the most widely read magazines over a period of twenty years, improve ment in general health of American people Is shown by an Increase in the average span of life in this coun try from forty-nine years in 1001 to fifty-seven years In 1026, or an In crease of eight years In a quarter of a century. While the schools alone are not responsible for the changes In American life Indicated by these figures, nevertheless, without the schools they could not 'have taken place, Howard declared. The broad ening of Interest through introduc tion to many fields of study has led to the bookshelves for further expan sion of the Intellectual horizon. Not only health courses but the sciences In general have tended to dispel prim itive health practices that amounted to superstition and to open the way for desirable individual health habits and for the establishment of adequate public health regulations. Mes.sage to (irariiiatefi Speaking directly to the graduates who are Just entering the teaching profession.

You who have become discouraged by the poor results obtained from the use of so-called "corn cures" should go to The Moon Drug Company TO DAY to hear about the ONLY remedy that will surely remove all corns and callouses quickly and without pain. Don't accept anything except END-O-CORN. It costs only fifty cents, but It's worth 50. - Adv. teach with the larger objectives of education constantly before them and that they labor to keep their school work vital. "The curse of organized education in the past has been the tendency to formalize and devitalize whatever.lt laid Its hands upon," said tho speaker. "The outstanding ele ment In the modern philosophy of education Is vitality. Biology must look out of doors; civics must look at the state house, the city hall, and the city water supply; literature must look at the real significance of books and the characters walking through them rather than at the grammatical form In which thoughts are ex pressed." The Normal school orchestra played Hollander's "Processional March" and Rev. J. George Walz gave the Invoca tion. A mixed quartet sang "Night fall In Granada" by Bueno, preceding Dr. Howard's address. Arnet Amos sang "Imnlpotence" by Schubert, President Inlow presented the diplo mas, and Rev. Paul De F. Morttmore gave the benediction. The orchestra played Verdi's triumphal march "Aida." HOW ONE WOMAN LOST 20 LBS.
