Every annual high school com
mencement with its pretty Bettings,
flower scented atmosphere, enchant
ment, capacity audience a,nd graduates
seated on the sta ge. creates the im
pression that It was the best of all pre
vious commencements, and the . J 925
commencement of the Med ford high
school last night, lived up to the rule
from the moment the curtain arose In
the beautiful new Cratorian theater,
disclosing the 82 graduates, boys and
girls, seated on the stage, behind un
embankment of flowers, and Hetty
lirown with her usuul urllHtry played
a magnificent adaption of Ii Trovaloref

Following the Invocation by Rev. E.
P. Lawrence, Howard Spalding gave
the valedictory address in an Impres
sive and well delivered manner, In
which he expressed the gratitude of
the class to the faculty of the high
school and the Mod ford public gener
ally for having made possible their
education thus far.
Nupt. Smith's Kuan Song1.
Miss Joyce Maddox then rendered an
artistic piano selection, and Superin
tendent Aubrey O. Smith In his pre
sentation of the speaker of the even
ing, took occasion to deliver a valedic
tory address of his ownhis swan
song as head of Medford's public
Schools.
He called attention to the fact that
nt tho commencement five years ago
last night ho made his first bow to tho
Modford public, and at that time made
his first plea for a new high school
building, and had kept It up ever since
until recently a new ItiKh school was
voted by tho people.. Superintendent
Smith congratulated the people over
tills and Raid he hoped the new struc
ture would bo a wonderful one.
Ho declared his appreciation and
lovo for Med ford, regretted that he
had to part wltlj tho city, and hoped
that the local schools would continue
to develop Into tho best of educational
systems-. Tho retiring superintendent
said a good word for Superintendent
Hedrlck, his successor, whom he had
It now n for years, and asked for him
tho samo loyal support that .h Med- !
lord pooplo had given him during his
Ilvo years as superintendent,
Suporlntendent Smith also spoke
"briefly to the effect that during this
time ho had made many friends and
acquired a few so-called enemies In

his course of duty, but that ho freely
forgave them for any animosity and
trusted that they also felt tho same
toward him.
Then In a few well chosen words
Superintendent Smith Introduced tho
distinguished man who was to give the
annual class address. Judge Charles
Henry Carey of Portland, whom ho
characterized as tho foromost lawyer
of tho state. j
Judge Carey's Thoughtful Address
Judgo Carey, In his address, which
is published elsewhere in this paper,
eald that he would not follow the us
ual custom at commencements, but
would loave to parents and teachers
the advice and admonitions generally
given at graduating exercises. His pur
pose rather was, ho said, to use tho
opportunity to talk. to tho assemblage
about "Our Country."
Ho dosorlbed tho birth, growth nnd
development of the nation in a few
words nnd then proceeded to analyze
conditions that Jus tiff us In being
f proud of our country.
Tho soul of America, tho spenker
said, Is the spirit of its people, and the
nation cannot be other than as Its peo
ple make It.
The great blessings of Americans
over those of other peoples throughout
the world wore pointed out, but for tho
, purpose of showing tho duty of main
taining and preserving our Ideals, and
of setting nn example and of holding
out a hopo of better political conditions
in other civilized countries.
' Class HotiorH, Diplomas Given
TJien, following tho singing of two
beautiful nnd well rendered selections
hy tho senior octette of the high
school, I'rlnclpnl O. 11. Campbell of the
high school Introduced the honor stu

First scholarship honors went to
Howard Spalding, and the second hon

honors wore based on actual grades
during the four years course In the
. high school.
Tho honor cup for girls, went to
Juanlta O riff in. and tho honor cup for
hoys to Morvyn Chastain. These were
selected by tho faculty first choosing
four students for scholarship, student
activities, good felowship and charac
ter; atd then the student body voting
for the two from these four who were
to receive cup honors.
The Oregon conference scholarship
Was nwnrded to MIkr Vera Champie.
With a brief introduction X. If.
Franklin of the hoard of education
then presented the diplomas to the
large class, the largest In tho history
of the Modford high school.
The benediction was pronounced by
"Rev, William II. Hamilton, the big as

mencement was but a very pleasant
memory.

It Is not American. It Is not

America wishes to see produced m. i

"Hut before wo attempt to set our-

GRADUATING CLASS
The eloquent and though inspiring
address of Judge Charles Henry
Carey of Portland at the commence
ment exercises of the Medford hiRh
echool last niKht, the subject of which
was "Our Country," was In part as
follows:
1 ne Kranuaiion exercises or our
schools interest me and stir thought
At (his very time in thousands of
American cities the young people are
completing fixed courses of Instruc
tion, and are facing new and practical
problems. What shall wo do next, is
the question with many of them.
Others, who have a definite plan,
nevertheless realize the seriousness of
important moves and are turning over
and over in .their minds Ihe problem
of how to get the most out of their
lives, the most for themselves and for
others.
The field for inquiry and discussion
upon such an occnslon is a wide one
I and may range all the way from the
1 personal to the abstract. Hut, as the
destiny of the United States will be
in the hands of the rising generation,
I and upon the intelligent use of the
'privileges nnd the duties of cltfzcn
jshlp of these young people depends
j iiia jrciuuiiuii ul u.iu hut u 15 v t-m j.j
, ment of our form of government, I
"p wave to turn to that subject,
Wc older people, with a wide ex-
i"""-1'- ..vii unu iL mijiiuuu
to tI.untjf(;r t0 our younff frIenUH the
ceptance.
The truth is, that most of. us must
learn by our own experience. A
burnt child avoids the fire. Experi
ence Is a dear teacher, but still is the
only teacher that is headed.
So, Instead of following tho hon
ored custom devoting the time allot
ted to me to admonition and precept,
I venture to leave all that to parents
and to teachers, and to talk this even
ing upon Our Country.
' It Is your country and mine. It Is
the country that was discovered and
settled by our venturesome and enter
prising forefathers; fought for and
wrested from tyranny and released
irom oia worm tneories ot govern-
ment: Preserved from division and
Hlieraled r,'om tne ht of slavery;
expanded and enlarged by westward
development. nd finally solemnly
committed to tho duty and obligation
of maintaining national Ideals, and of
ho""& out hopes for greater political
ireeuom and uir better social sm
roundings to tho oppressed and down
trodden people of the world. -
There is no other such country and
no other such government. Here,
there is less poverty, better living
conditions, better schools, hotter
houses, better railroads,' better tele-
l100"0"- better roadways than In
any other country on earth. A an
Index of general comfort, no other
nation has so many automobiles or so
many radio sets. Here, people are
better clothed, better fed, better paid
for their labor, and they have more
reasonable hours of work and more
sanitary working conditions than
elsewhere. They have more money in
the"savingH banks, and more per cap
ita wealth than any other nation.
Wo have free schools. Including high
Hcnoois. technical SClloolH UlUl Col
,0KHl Wo have freedom in religion,
and tho land Is dotted with churches
and meeting houses without uhion of
state and church. We Jmvo hospitals.
and refuges for the unfortunate and
the intirm. We have association
buildings for young men and young
women in the cities.

It intended to be complete. It Is not

inanlfold blesislngs are equally appar

since tho time our federal constitu
tion was adopted. We have but to
study the social nnd political history
of tho early days of the republic to
npprecinto how great has been the
moral progress of our people, and
how far they hnvo gone in improving
the methods of politics. Practices
that were commmi to former genera
tions would not now betolerated. For
example, public opinion would not
fail to condem those who would at
tempt to make use of vote-buying at
tho polling places, or corruption in
the legislative issemblies, The 'elec
tion of senators at an earlier lyrlod
was not Infrequently disgraced by the
use of dishonest methods. The coun

I grent "legislative and official scan
lals, such as in the Credit Mobllicr
the Erie transactions, the Tweed re
gime, and the carpet bag exploita
tions or tho southern states. Such
things are of the, past. The corrop-
tion that waa frequently noted In the
municipal governments of the Unit
ed States and often commented' upon
by foreign observers Is no longer a
blight.
Our people have gained a better
sense of civic duty, and voters take a
keener interest in -the questions 0f
government. The admission of wom
en Into politics has resulted in a bet
ter understanding of the responsibil
ities of the voter, and women are
striving to Inform themselves as to
the structure and methods of govern
ment, as well as to qualify themselves1
for duties of citizenship. At the same
time, the entrance of women into
business, while altering in a degree
the status in the home, and while dis
placing or disturbing the equilibrium
of men's employment, has improved
business methods tind has broadened
and increased the freedom of wom
en's position.
The people of the United States
have developed a real interest In the
welfare of the unfortunate. They
raise and expend vast sums for tho
care of those who need help, and in
stitutions are provided for almost
every public charity At tho same 1
time thoy have greatly improved the
working conditions in factories and
mines, have regulated train equip

tion when needed for the purposes of
agriculture and commerce, the gov
ernment has been, made practical and
useful.
It is a country of progress. It Is a
country of opportunity. These young
people enter upon the scene at a
fortunate time, for never was the
field more alluring. Tho rewards for
ambition were never more templing,
the incentive for usefulness was never
more inviting.
Let me be more specific and malce
use of an illustration. In Internation
al affairs we are hopeful that our
country may bring about a modifica
tion of armaments and a discourage
ment of war. ' The aspiration ofW,hRV wil1 recover and preserve. To
people is not In the direction of ag-
gressloh, or of conquest. And while
It Is not to be expected that foreign
nations, differently situated and dif
ferently trained, will go as far toward j
outlawing war as we Americans '
might wish, the Influence of tho
United Stales toward peace with rea
son is considerable; and will Increase.
Tho United States has become the
most powerful nation of all. Her
rapidly increasing ' wealth makes it
inevitable that she'must have a place
in the markets of the world, and her
citizens will be more and more en
gaged In international trade and com
merce..
Now, it is not mere bonstfulness
that makes us view these conditions.
If our country presents better oppor-
(unities for boys and girls, and- if wo
have a better form of government, a

Mr. H. W. Hamlin
Medford Precooling & Storage Co. .. '
Medford, Oregon .
Dear Mr. Hamlin:
There is no question of the value of Cold Storage In tho green
fruit business, particularly in the handling of pears.
Having ample cold storage has revolullonlzed tho pear Industry
In the Yakima Valley. Instead of havlmj a bad market slump at tho
peak load of harvesting we have no peak load In our marketing,
this surplus over what tho markets will absorb on a profitable basis
goes into storago to be moved In nn orderly manner over a period of
60 days, and In practically all cases since this system has been prac
tised hero this surplus has moved to market at a generous profit over
and nlfove storage, cost and prices that prevailed during the harvest
period. , . . ,
In addition to tho advantages in marketing our. boxed fruit,
cold storage has developed our canning business in a wonderful way.'
e now, store thousands of tons of pears 'sold to outside canneries
who draw on these stocks thirty to sixty days after their canning
season would be over hail they not this reserve stock to draw from.
1 think I can safely say tbaMhe Yakltnn Valley Is tho only section
In the West that offers this service to the canneries.
Wo are pleased to learn that you are developing cold storage
for handling your pears and know that after the first year's operation
your people will be thoroughly sold on the Idea.
Yours very truly,
. - A. -K. MARSH COMPANY
