DELIVERS SPLENDID AD
DRESS FRIDAY.
The Commencement exercises ol
the Vale high school were held in
the .Auditorium last Friday evening.
The house was filled to capacity
with parents, relatives and friends
interested in the graduating class oi
'22 and the educational institution
of Vale.
The stage was decorated with the
class motto, "To the Stars, Through
Bolts and Bars," wih the class nu
merals, and was banked with beau
tiful flowers. The class colors,
silver, gray and old rose, were used
throughout. The auditorium looked
very pretty and the work was done
by the junior class.
To the strains of a beautiful pro
cessional march the fourteen gradu
ates passed through the audience to
the stage, passing beneath an arch
of streamers held by members of
the junior class. Two little flower
girls followed the class with pretty
baskets of fowers which they placed
in front of the stage.
The invocation by Rev. J. A. Mel
ton was followed by "Apollo Over
ture" by the orchestra.
In the salutation Paul Ager wel
comed parents and patrons of the
school who made it possible for the
students to gain their high school
education, and briefly told of what
success meant to the graduates later
in their lives.
The following number on the pro
gram was a delightful character
song by six little girls dressed as
Jananese dolls. ' .
Five boys dressed in ' Indian cos
tume delighted the audience with a
character song also.
Dr. F. A. Magruder had as his
theme for the commencement ad
dress, "Ideals and Citizenship." The
speaker is associate professor of
political science at the Oregon Agri
cultural college. He began his ad
dress in a humorous way, telling of
boyhood ideals, and launched into
the subject of how closely related
are ideals and citizenship. The story
of striving for a high ideal, of sacri
ficing to gain that point, was told in
an eloquent and inspiring manner.
He stressed on the points that
those people with high ideals made
better citizens of the United States,
could get more out of life for them
selves and could better appreciate
it, and were worth more to their
community. During the address he
often referred to experiences that
occurred while traveling in Europe
in recent years.
A delightful number and encore
was' given by the high school glee
club, with an incidental solo by Miss
Gladys Chester. An appreciative
audience highly applauded.
Verdi Miller, as valedictorian, told
of the steps through school life and
that now the students of the class
had reached the place where there
were opportunities before each of
them. Closing the theme, she bid
her classmates goodbye.
Principal G. W. Ager of the Vale
schools presented' the diplomas in an
impressive manner. He made a few
remarks concerning the history of
graduating classes from this school,
and expessed with sincerity his feel
ing toward the class of '22. He
mentioned interesting facts about
members of the class, seven of
which had already made definite
plans for next year's education at
some institution of higher learning.
Those who received diplomas are
Margaret Cleveland, Evalyn Hyde,
George, Hart, Cecil Ager, Verdi Mil
ler, Paul Ager, Nellie Thompson,
Harold Romph, LaVera Moe, Cleo

PROPAGATE
FISH

WILL PUNT TROUT IN TWO
LARGE RESERVOIRS
FISH FRY FOR MALHEUR
ROBT. D. LYTLE AND F. L. GIL
BERT WORK WITH DE
PARTMENT. ' District Attorney Robt. D. Lytle '
has been working with the Oregon
State Game Department, making an
effort to get shipments of trout,
bass and crappie for water streams
in Malheur county. He recently re
ceived a promise from the depart
ment of a trout fry for Willow res
ervoir and the Warmsprings reser
voir for this year. He also has the
promise ' thai) tha department wfil
make an effort to plant bass and
crappie in the Malheur river at the
point above the diversion dam just
east of Vale on up to the Warm
springs reservoir site. F. L. Gilbert
has worked with Ir. Lytle in this
effort to plant fish in tha streams
of the county.
In former years the department
sent a fry of 250,000 small, imma
ture trout not over m or 2 inches
long in a fish car. They have dis
continued this practice because of
poor results and this year will send
more mature fish, called finger
lings in lots of 60,000 brought in
by express or on trucks, and planted
by ' experienced men sent by the
state. Out of this number of fin
gerlings more trout will mature
than out of the 250,000 small fry
sent in the fish car in years past.
Bass and crappie are sent out; in
fish' cars and Malheur county is
promised one car this year.
The state of Oregon has no hatch
ery for crappie or bass but officials
secure the fish in another way. As
soon as the high waters of the Co
lumbia river, where the fish hatch,'
go down bays' and sloughs caused
by the overflow become land locked
and from these water bodies the
small fish are gathered in nets.
Then they are sent to various parts
of the state. '
If Malheur . eounty receives the
trout, bass and crappie that are
promised this year the sport may
begin in about two years, as by that
time the fish will be large enough
to comply with the game laws of
Oregon. .
