BOARDMAN
The haste, the rush, the picnics,
the parties, the many preparations
that go to make up one of the mo
mentous of life's epochs, is now end
ed In the lives of seven seniors of
the class of 1929. The gorgeous bou
quets are withered and only the
gifts, the pretty gowns and the di
plomas are the tangible things left
along with the memories which
will grow dearer with the passing
of the years are reminders of the
great occasion. The graduating ex
ercises were held Wednesday night
The stage was beautiful with its
background of wistaria and the
pretty arch in the center through
which the members of the class, the
high school teachers, Rev. Miller,
Mr. Calkins and Mr. Hewitt passed
as they took their places on the
stage. The following program was i sent nor tardy, these being given
her home at Athena. Mr. and Mrs.
Spike of Echo motored down on
Thursday for their daughter, Miss
Frances. The latter may have to
undergo an operation for goitre dur
ing the summer.
Mr. and Mrs. Heater of Thompson
Falls, Mont, were Boardman visit
ors last week. They were at Delane
Bros, to see about their property.
Heaters have a 40 adjoining De
lanes. Tuesday, May 14, was class and
honor day. Miss Lillian Brice gave
the welcoming address, Noel Kitz
the class history. Buster Rands the
class poem, Mildred Messenger the
class will, Gladys Wilson the class
prophecy and Sophia Barlow the
class pledgs. On behalf of the class
of 1929 Alex Ayers, class president,
presented the school a beautiful
silk flag mounted on a standard as
the class gift
Since this was also honor day,
the certificates of attendance were
given to those who were neither ab-
given: Prelude, Miss Henry; invo
cation, Rev. W. O. Miller; saluta
tory, Sophia Barlow; saxophone solo
Eldon Wilson; commencement ad
dress. Dean Ro A. Hewitt; piano
solo, Miss Ellen Henry; valedictory,
Lillian Brice; presentation of dl
pomas, C. S. Calkins; vocal solo,
Mrs. Royal Rands; benediction,
Rev. Miller.
The address by Dean Hewitt was
an able and inspiring one and en
tirely different from the usual com
mencement address, and has caused
much discussion, pro and con, in the
community. He spoke of the five
enemies of mankind, ignorance,
waste, poverty, disease and inhu
manity. He based most of his talk
on the horrors of war and the edu
cation of this generation so that an
other war which would in all prob
ability destroy civilization, might be
avoided. Mr. Hewitt, who was in
the service, painted war in all its
actualities, its hideousness, its wan
ton waste and slaughter, its fright
fulness, tearing away all the glam
orous side, the humorous phase, and
depicted it in its gruesome and hor
rible details.
Graduates were Lillian Brice, So
phia Barlow, Noel Klitz, Buster
Rands, Mildred Messenger, Gladys
Wilson and Alex Ayers.
Mrs. Ed. Kunzie has been under
the weather the past week.

Mr. and Mrs. Jack Hale came Fri
day morning from Jefferson, Ore.
Just below Arlington as Mr. Hale
started to slow down for a curve
he stepped on the gas instead of the
brake and crashed inio the railing.
Through some kindness of fate the
engine stopped so the car did not
go over the embankment but a
light was wrecked, the front bump
er demolished and the occupants
shaken up. On Friday night the
Calkins family stayed overnight at
the Allen home and left for Jeffer
son early Saturday morning.

Many improvements have been
made at the Boardman cemetery.
Mr. Root and Mr. Olson have given
generously of their time this spring
in building a reservoir and flumes
so that water might be available
at all times. The rye which was
seeded is growing nicely. A few of
the graves were sunken and neglect
ed. Since relatives of most of those
who repose in "God's Acres" are
still living on the project it is hoped
that they will make an effort to fill
the sunken graves that thoy may be
in harmony with the fine appear
ance of the rest of the cemetery.

Results of Thinking
Benefits from never wasting anything
are clearly emphasized if we, a as scient
ist would, think about the matter, consider
our condition and possibilities of "arriv

Just notice how people who save reg

Can't Float
Upstream
What is will power? Well, it is
persistency of effort-unwillingness to
surrender dogged determination to
carry on. These things decide hu
man destiny.
It is always easy to follow the lines
of least resistance. But one can't
very, well float UP STREAM. It
takes effort. Many who have achiev
ed greatness in life, financially and
otherwise, developed WILL POW
ER early In life. You can do what
you want to do if you really WANT
to.
