TITE MORNING OREGONIAX, FRIDAY, JUNE 13, 1919. HIGH SCHOOLS HOLD YEARLY EXERCISES Students of Six Institutions Receive Diplomas. ORATORS URGE PATRIOTISM Lojallj to Country and Duty Dur ing Reconstruction. Topics of Addresses. From platforms in six of the city's secondary schools last night six dif ferent speakers impressed upon mem bers of the graduating classes the im portance of the part they are to play in the country's reconstruction work. Commencement exercises at Benson Polytechnic school and Lincoln high school tonight will conclude the pro grammes attendant upon the closing of the year's work. Among scholarship awards announced was one of $150 which was given Kd ward Myers at Washington and another of 25U to Mildred Fennimore of the same school. Kx-Alayor H. R. Albee, in honor of whose son the Jefferson scholarship was established, delivered the address to the class, pointing out the value of an education. He advised the seniors to place upon the shelves of their minds the things that would be of value to them in the future, things that would automatically corner to them in time of need. He illustrated his point by quot ing from letters from soldiers in '.France. Will Power Roles. "Will power," he said, "can accom plish whatever you would make it, if you are willing to pay the price." Taking an example from a chapter in "Alaska Days With John Muir," by S. Hall Young, he drew a picture carrying out the idea and showing the value of t'ruth, self control, obedience and character building. - The programme featured the class song music for which was written by Raymond Johns and the words by Kmily Terry. both seniors. Helen Naples gave a piano solo; Jim Allen Skulton, a trombone solo; Hildur Nel son a. violin solo, and Mildren Jewell a reading. The girls double quartette and the school orchastra furnished numbers. Cecilia Rosser also gave a piano solo. The exercises were closed by the singing of the American hymn by the class and the recessional. Of the US graduates, the largest number from any school this year, 30 wore honorary students, three com pleted their work in three years and 2M in three and ane-half years. Already 110 have declared their intention of at tending institutions of higher learning. While attending Jefferson, the boys earned a total of $25,625 and the girls 512,226. A large proportion of the lat ter made their own graduation gowns. Franklin Class lumbers 27. The Franklin high class of 27 stu dents chose as their speaker Dr. E. H. Pence, pastor of the Westminster Pres byterian church. "It may not fall to you to lead the masses." the speaker told his audience. "That falls to but few: but you may build up your following, and through confidence inspired in others, many or few you can multiply yourself. "The air is full of radicalism; we need a conservatism which has both the courage of its convictions and the liberality of its doubts. This gradu ation of yours multiplies your poten tials of possible force in a service to society. It is for you to determine how much and to what purpose; remember ing always that you do your best and greatest work with what you are or your worst," he concluded. Other numbers on the programme were two vocal solos by Walter J. Stevenson, songs by the glee club, a violin solo by Helen M. Harber, accom panied by her sister, Jean Harber, and selections by the school orchestra. The stage was decorated in vine maple. evergreens and flags and the girls of the class carried Ophelia roses. The 1920 class boasts the highest scholarship average yet attained at Kranklin. Washington Graduates 103. This was Washington High's 23d graduating class and numbered out of its 103 members 25 honorary students. ;irls held the majorit ythis year, for there were 76 as compared with 27 boys. Dr. Wallace Youngson, district super intendent for the Methodist church, de livered the principal address. He was followed by H. H. Herdman. principal of the school, who presented the diplo mas. The latter mentioned some of the achievements of the class. "The pupils." he enumerated, "worked their way entirely throughout the four years, and most of the others contrib uted to their own support in part Seventy-six have indicated their in tention of attending higher institutions of learning. Of these 24 of the 27 boys in the class are included. Thirty-five srudents have never been tardy since entering the primary grades." Mr. Herdman's remarks were an ex pression of gratification at the com pletion of the high school work and encouragement to go on acquiring equipment enabling the graduates to fulfill their duty to themselves and so ciety. Musical numbers on the programme consisted of selections by the girls' chorus and school orchestra, a vocal solo by Frank Jue. a Chinese student, and songs by a quartet made up of Lorraine Lee. Mildred Fenimore, Walter Lurson and Elmer Goudy. Dr. "Waldo Commerce Speaker. Dr. William A. Waldo of the White temple spoke at the High School of Commerce, where 39 received diplomas, using for his subject, "The American Youth in Days of Reconstruction." During the course of his address he de clared. "There is no word that sounds so sweet in the ears of the American youth as that of 'peace.' We have heard the word 'war' again and again. It has sounded in hamlet and palace throughout the world. But now peace' is the sweet word. The soldier's hour is over he has completed his task. The sailor's duty is performed. The nurse's care is over, so far as the war is concerned. Their mission now is a grander one of bringing peace and joy to humanity. The map of the world is changed boundaries are displaced and the old tyrannies of governments have been dispelled and we are now in a great age. America is the leader of the world's democracy, the champion of small nations, the promoter of civil and religious liberty. The speaker characterized the Ameri can youth as possessing love of knowl edge, of horn, of society and concluded by saying that he would also possess a love of country. The boy, he said, is a patriotic youth in three ways, first as an educated citizen, second as a law abiding citizen and third as a God fearing citizen. During the course of his talk he drew many illustrations from the lives of Abraham Lincoln and Woodrow Wilson. The girls glee club and school orches tra furnished the greater part of the music for the exercises. Goldie Barr nppeared in a vocal solo and Rev. A. R. ilaclain save the invocation. The audi- toriumat the school was prettily deco rated in ferns and cedar. Profenor Coleman Speak. At the James Johns high school Pro fessor Norman F. Coleman of Reed col lege told of the changes the war had brought about, in industries, thus giv ing freer opportunities and more va riety for men. Throughout he illus trated his points with his observationsr while engaged in Y. M. C. A. war work both at home and overseas, drawing largely from his own experiences. Particularly did he emphasize tne responsibilities to be assumed in this age and urged the younger boys to get up and work as did their older brothers during the war. Principal W. T. Fletcher presented the diplomas to 37 graduates and the high school orchestra, senior girls' cho rus and a double quartet supplied mu sic. Blue lupine formed the principal decorations for the hall. The programme at Lincoln high to night will include an address by Rabbi John B. Wise, a violin selection by Jane O'Rielly and a piano number by Gordon Soule. One hundred and seven students are to be given diplomas. Dr. D. V. Poling of Oregon Agricul tural college is to speak at Benson Polytechnic. Others taking part will be Mrs. Lula Dahl Miller, and Fred Strickland, both of whom will sing. DEGREES GIVEN FOUR AT PACIFIC COLLEGE Dr. Walter Woodward, Quaker Officer, Delivers Address. ACADEMY GRADUATES 12 MEN FROM SHIPS LANDED TIGS BRING YANKEE AXD GRAF WALDERSEE SURVIVORS. Salvaging of Shipping Board Vessel, Rammed by Italian Steamer, Held Impossible. NEW YORK, June 12. Tugs sent to the assistance of . the steamships Yankee and Graf Waldersee, run down by other craft in a heavy fog off Fire island late last night, arrived here this afternoon bringing some of the crew of the Yankee and 10 army officers taken off the Graf Waldersee, a naval transport. No hope is entertained by naval of ficers of salvaging the Yankee, op erated by the United States shipping board. The vessel sank in deep water soon after she had been rammed by the Italian steamer Argentina. There is some hope of saving the Graf Waldersee, however. The trans port, formerly a flagship in the Hamburg-American line, is now resting in 40 feet of water, two miles off Long Beach, where she was towed by the U. S. S. Patricia after the steamer Redondo had torn a great hole in her side. Only a few of the transport's crew of 400 had been removed tonight, as the craft was considered in no danger so long as a storm did not arise. ALLIES AGREE ON REPLY ("Continued From First Page.) that his government must be given an opportunity for full concurrence if full adherence is expected. His entry into the council meeting today necessitated rearranging the entire reply, article by article. The conditions for the admission of Germany to the league of nations, em bodied in the report of Lord Cecil and E. M. House, are: First Establishment of a stable gov ernment. Second Signing of the treaty of peace. Third Loyal execution of the peace treaty. A proposed fourth condition, relative to Germany's abolishing compulsory military service, was finally omitted on Premier Clemenceau's suggestion. It was considered that the treaty suffi ciently provided for Germany's dis armament. Marshal Foch and General Weygand had two conferences yesterday with Premier Clemenceau at which they dis cussed the question of an immediate resumption of hostilities and a con certed advance by the allies, says Mar cel Hutin in the Echo de Paris. "ew Ministry Expected. The general opinion is, the writer adds, that Count von Brockdoff- Rantzau has committed himself too far to be able to sign the treaty. It also is believed that the Scheidemann minis try will be swept away to make room for a ministry of modern inde pendent socialists which will be joined by Mathias Erzberger. chairman of the German armistice commission. This ministry, it is declared, would be dis posed to accept the allied conditions, which it probably would do about July L The Turkish peace delegation, which reached Toulon yesterday, arrived at the Lyons station here at S:45 o'clock this morning. The party was ac companied by a French naval lieu tenant and a captain from the staff of General Franchet d'Esprey, allied commander in the near east. There was no official reception. The party remained in its car, which was sent to Vaucresson. in the suburbs. Austrian Send Note. Dr. Karl Renner. head of the Aus trian peace delegation, has sent a sec ond note to the peace conference sec retariat. The note deals with the re patriation of Austrian diplomatic of ficials now in South America without resources. Information reached peace conference circles today that the Italian officers serving with the Czecho-Slovak army have been replaced by Frenchmen. Phone your want ads to The Orego nian.

Brown, a highly esteemed resident of Calistoga. Cali fornia, called at an Owl Drug Store in Los Angeles, recently, and made the statement that Tanlac had completely relieved her of a case of stomach trou ble from which she had suffered for forty years. Mrs. Brown's statement, while indeed remarkable, is by no means unusual as many thousands of well-known people all over the country have testified to having used the medicine with the same wonderful results. "For the first time in years." said Mrs. Brown, "I am able to eat what I want without any bad after effects, and I must say Tanlac is a perfectly grand medicine. I suffered with indi gestion and constipation all the time, often had severe pains in my stomach and was seldom free from headache. I had suffered so long that my nerves were all shattered and I had lost about all my strength. "I have tried every kind of medicine and have been under treatment many times, but get relief for a little while at a time, and then feel worse than ever. In fact the older I got the worse I suffered and I had long eince lost hope of ever getting relief. Finally a lady friend of mine who had taken Tanlac. persuaded me to try it, and as I said, for the first time in all these years I can eat what I want and. never suffer any whatever from gas and pains in my stomach. My headaches are gone, too, and my general health is better than for years. I have also gained several pounds in weight. I am only too glad to recommend Tanlac for I firmly believe it is the best medi cine ever made." Tanlac is sold in Portland by the Owi Drug Co. Adv.

Permission May Be Refused Com pany to Operate Plant at Mill in Marshfield. MARSH FIELD. Or.. June 12. (Spe cial.) Marshfield, North Bend, East Side, Coquille and Myrtle Point face a condition which may result in suspen sion of electric power and light, if the intention of the receivers of the C. A. Smith property to withdraw permission to the Oregon Power company to op erate the electric plant at the main Marshfield mill is allowed to be car ried out The probable solution is being con sidered here by the Oregon Power com pany and the public In general. All the motors for generating electricity are centered at the Smith mill, which has been closed for several months. The Oregon Power company was permitted to operate the engines and boilers and the electric dynamos in order to supply current. The situation has attracted the state public service commission, and Com missioner W. T. McNeill made a spe cial visit here to investigate the matter.

The extra pair enables you to continue with your work or pleasure without the loss of time, or the discomfort of poor or painful vision while waiting for repairs. Especially while away on your vacation will your enjoyment be more keen if you have the feeling of security an extra pair of glasses will give you. DR.
