THE SAUNA DAILY BEPUBMCAN, SATURDAY EVENING, MAY 20, 1893. COMMENCEMENT. How to Get Strength. Attention, Sir frights sumptions and impertinent. Miss Eva Cunningham and Eveleen Dolan rendered a beautiful piano duet which gained the warmest applause, after which Miss Edith Wight read her essay.

"The Reality of Poetry." Her essay was carefully prepared and showed the evidence of thoughtful study. She gave very little credence to any reality in poetry. It was the idealization of imagined things which constitute the themes of the poets. "The Conquest of Science" by Miss Anna Able was a splendid paper reviewing the progress of scientific thought in the world. The most notable conquests of science were mentioned and her production was interesting and instructive.

The essay of Miss Grace Weld upon "Dreams" was excellent in all respects and was listened to with great interest. The "Class Prophecy" by Miss The Cta. F. Kaffer Her, Co. Are headquarters for Queensware, Glassware, Crockery, Lamps.

Lamps, For Freshest and Nicest FRUITS and VEGETABLES Always go to Ghas. F. Kaffer Mercantile Co. The 7 niH orm ho ntiira that anrinirs to eyery one's mind is an aggregation of infirmities, Men and women are growing old be fore their time. The work and worry of to-day plunges us into an old age early; many die of old age at 50 'instead of .70, and the causes that occasion this premature old age bring exaggerated dotage, melancholy and often insanity.

While old age is thus associated with rheumatism, gout and various morbid conditions, it is nevertheless possible to have an old age, free from them, and, as Sir James Brown says in the British Medical Journal "to run the course to the century goal without being complicated by any of the senile infirmities enumerated." These infirmities, regarded as maladies of old age, are not essential to it, but due to overwrought nervous systems and blood that fails to nourish the nerve centres. Paine's celery compound brings that first requisite of restored health, perfect sleep, the very foundation of improvement in nervous diseases. To a body thus refreshed ami thoroughly bathed in its necessary oxygon, THE EVENT OF THE SEASON FOB THE HIGH SCHOOL AST SIGHT. Large Audience at the Opera House Enjoys the Interesting Program Given By the' Glass of 93. 7 Last night marked a notaBle event in the history of the Salina High School.

The graduating class was larger by twelve than any heretofore, and many bright prophesies are made for the class of '1)3. The opera house was well filled, nearly all the seats being taken. When the curtain was rolled up a very attractive scene was presented to the audience. The class was seated in a semi-circle facing the audience and the effect was admirable. After an opening selection by Packard's orchestra, the invocation was pronounced bv Rev.

Wm. Foulkes. A second selection was given by the orchestra and Charles Sorter than delivered his 'oration. All the orations ana essays were. very brief, and although the program was of great length, it closed, by 11 o'clock.

Mr. Sorter chose for his subject "Influence of Religion." He spoke of the civilization of a nation and explained that it could rise no higher than its religion. The civilization of the country is de pendent upon the religious faith. He drew comparisons between nations in all epochs, proving in each that where there had been a lack of religious in fluence, the higher forms of civilization had been abandoned. Miss Charlotte Dodge read an excel lentlv written essay upon 'Observation." She argued that the faculty of observation was not employed to its fullest extent, and that the greatest discoveries had been made through the close application of the faculty of observation.

Miss Eveleen Dolan chose as the subject of her essay "A Comparison." She drew a comparison between Whittier and Tennyson, and her review of the attributes of the two poets was scholarly aud revealed a close ac quaintanceship with their writings. Tennyson, she describeed as the greatest artist and the" most indefatigable worker, but Whittier. had the greatest epic genius. Whittier was a philan-tropist, lennyson worked steadily and ambitiously foe his own fame. The orchestra favored the audience with a fine selection, after which Miss Mary Armstrong delivered her oration.

She called it "A Result" and the theme of discussion was the progress of women. She reviewed the past and showed by comparison the progress of women. 1 he influence or woman was also made the subject of a well written eulogy, and proved that Miss Armstrong had spent much time upon her production. Miss Lillian Markland gave a nicely prepared character sketch of Vic.tor Hugo's "Jean Val Jean." Miss Mark-land was successful in bringing out the striking features of the" remarkable character nd her production was very interesting. "Atoms" was the subject chosen hy Miss Lizzie Berg.

It was in many respects a scientific essay, its chief aim being to bring the listner to the realization of Ihe fact that all things are combinations of atoms. In conclusion she very neatly introduced the thought that it is the little things, the atoms, which make up the round of life, and none of the little things must be neglected. Miss Harriet Mapes varied the program in a very pleasing manner, with a solo, "The Nightingale." Miss Maud Mills' essay was entitled, "Time is Opportunity." Time is lost when it is not worthily devoted. Each person will haye his great opportunity in life, and if he has devoted his time in getting ready to make the best of the opportunity, he will be successful. No one can offord to neglect the smaller opportunities of life, but every moment must be employed in getting ready tor the greater efforts to come.

Her production was thoughtfully prepared and delivered in an excellent manner. "The Nobility of Labor" was the subject of a good essay by Miss Ola Ridings. She argued that labor is ennobling. Without it man becomes a voluptuary. It is a divine provision and is the distinction between the civilized man and the savage.

The production, though brief, clearly expressed her ideas, and the good manner in which it was delivered added to its force. Claude R. Schweitzer chose for his subject "Our Country." It was a good oration and well delivered. Mr. Schweitzer proved that he had read largely from the dignified work of Josiah Strong upon the same subject and all his conclusions were excellently made.

He delivered his production with considerable oratorical effect. "A Nameless Knight" was a touching narrative by Miss Emily Bellville. It told of the suffering of a heroic pioneer and brought out vividly the perils and hardships through which the pioneers of Kansas passed. The first settlers werethe heroes, and to them belong the honor of reclaiming Kansas from savagery and making possible its glorious- present. The production ranked high from a literary standpoint and was well read.

"What Can I the oration by Miss Lizzie DePriest contained some excellent thought and was listened to with marked interest. She spoke of the struggle through which the negro has passed and contemplated with pride I the progress it nas made in freedom. She criticised with bitterness the barrier of race prejudice which, she assumed, now widely exists. Miss DePriest charged the white race with being willing to welcome the negro if bet comes as an ignoramus and an inferior, but if be comes as a gentleman and a scholar he is regarded as re PERSONAL MENTION. Miss Must Bonnell of Abilene is in the city, the guest of Miss Agnes Crow ley.

Miss Clara Roebuck has been very ill for several days. Miss Anna Lane will teach a School in Colorado this summer. A. B. Eryin was called to Nebraska to-day by the illness of his father.

Miss Nellie Bryant, of Lincoln is vis iting in the city. Mrs. H. P. Applebaugh and Miss Sophia Brown will visit in Lincoln to morrow.

Miss Love Lockridge of Nevada, Iowa, is the guest of her sister Mrs. A. Will on South 5th street. Miss Lockridge is on her way home from San Antbnio, Texas where she has spent the winter. Mr.

and Mrs. Ed. S. Moser are ex pected home this evening. Mrs.

Wm. Campbell returned to her home in Kansas City this morning after visiting in this city, Chas, Seitz is in Topeka. where he has a temporary position in Rowley Bro's. drug store during the absence one of the pharmacists. AN IMPORTANT CHANGE.

The Acute Cement Co. Purchases the Prop erty of the Lone Star Plaster Co and Will Move its Offices to Salina T. F. Garver and J. F.

Merrill Become Directors in the Acme Co. A Valuable Move for Salina. The Acme Cement Plaster Company has taken an important step which not only disposes of a strong rival company but adds au immense concern to the Acme's interests. The Acme Company has purchased the property of the Loire Star Plaster Company for a eonsidera tion of $300,000, increasing the capita of the Acme Company to $800,000. This important addition has also brought two new directors to' the company who were formerly directors of the Lone Star Com pan v.

Mr. J. F. Merrill and Hon. T.

F. Garver. This move contains au important and valuable consideration for Salina as it is proposed to establish in this city the general office for the Acme Com pany's business. The product three mills now being operated by the com the mill in Marion county, Kan sas, the mill at Quahana, Tex. and the one at Gypsum City, will be sold from Salina and all the immense business transactions of the company will be done at the Salina office.

The value of this fact to the cltv can not be easily, overestimated. The large business done by She three mills must pass under the head of the Acme Cement company cf Salina, and the continuous advertising the city will obtain from this fact will be directly beneficial. Mr. Paul Wilkerson, the secretary of the company, will move to Salina next week and the office will be established here after June 1st. With the addition of the two new di-eectors to the company there are no changes in its organization.

Mr. W. W. Watson of the American 'National Bank remains president. O.

P. Hamilton director and vice president, while the other directors are A. M. Claflin of Salina, Jonathan Tinkler of Gypsum, W. A.

of Marion Steck was a clever production. It predicted untold glory and fame for the class, and showed the existence of a cultivated imagination. Mrs. T. L.

Bond in a graceful address presented the diplomas to the graduates and Rev. J. H. Lockwood pronounced thebenediction. One of the, pleasant features of the evening was he music of the orchestra with Mrs.

Harlan as accompanist. What is a Savings Bank? Is a question frequently asked and its use little understood. Yet it is one of those institutions that probably does more good to a community than the people can readily appreciate. There are always in thickly populated sections people who have small sums and no way of using them to advantage. One man or woman may have $5.

another $10 to lav aside now and then or possibly a $100 or $1,000, which, when placed together, can be loaned so that it will pay a good inter est. The savings bank provides the means of getting these small sums to gether and loaning them out safely and then it divides the earnings less the expense of labor in the bank. Thus, while the savngs bank anords you a safe place to deposit your money, it al so gives you an income. Open an account with the Sayings Department of the Salina State Bank. V.
