COUNTY EDUCATIONAL NOTES.

Trustee Rush, of Newton township held an out-of-doors commencement last Tuesday afternoon at the home of Bradford Poole, west of the Blue Grass school. The exercises were well attended by people of Newton township, who sat in their autos in front of the big front porch to hear and see the program rendered. The tain did not interfere with the commencement, but poured immediately after it was all over. Trustee Rush was absent during a portion of the exercises to attend the funeral of a near relative. Rev. Charles W. Postill, of Rensselaer, pronounced the invocation and benediction. Professor Thurber, of Purdue university, gave a very interesting address upon the broad subject of “Educational Values.” Sixteen girls and boys were granted high school privileges upon this occasion. County Superintendent M. L. Sterrett presented the class to Trustee Rush, who delivered the diplomas. Mr. Rush gave a very interesting talk urging these young people to follow the precedent set from Newton township by other graduating classes. The music was furnished by the Horton orchestra from Rensselaer. After the commencement exercises the orchestra played several extras, each time receiving an enthusiastic encore applaud. The front porch was decorated with flowers, flags and the class colors. The entire preparations expressed much forethought and planning. Those receiving diplomas were: Jesse Bierly, Clifton Cox, Ethel Carpenter, Gerald Kolb, George Kris, Margaret Lang, Florence McFadden, Wallace Makeever, Mary Probosky, Glen Phares, Earl Parke, Martha Rush, Ruth Wortley, Mabel Yeoman, Fred Zacher and Man Zickmund.

FUNERAL MARCH WILL BE PLAYED AT MIDNIGHT.

New York, June 2(L—The at Madison Square Garden on the night of June 30, when prohibition .goes into effect at midnight, to celebrate the last hours of John Barleycorn. Promoters of this festival of the grape promise that more liquor will be consumed in the-last few hours before the dry spell than was consumed at all the notorious Bacchanalian revelries in ancient days. The passing of “booze” will be invested with all the ritual fitting the occasion. The garden will be draped with black crepe and at 12 o’clock, when the laws of the land declare the gay fluid taboo, the band will play Chopin’s “Funeral March.” Fifteen thousand persons are expected to participate. The equipment for the festival, according to the promoters, will consist of: Two hundred bartenders, 500 kegs of beer, 24,000 bottles of beer, 2,000 bottles of wine, mostly champagne; 5,000 quarts of whisky, 30,000 glasses and soft drinks. There will be individual and team drinking contests. At 11:30 p. m., a warning will be sounded that the country goes dry in thirty minutes and that the drinkers better fill up. Two officers in the aviation corps of the army leased the garden for this festival and let out concessions to liquor interests. Only a proclamation by President Wilson, setting aside wartime prohibition, as unessential, will upset the festival.

WHERE GREAT WRITER SLEEPS

Grave es Hobart Louis SUvonson In Samoa Located Amid Scene* of Rare Beauty. The Samoan Islands have two shrines— the home and grave of Robert Louis Stevenson. In his search for health, Stevenson built a home on one of the islands and called It Valliina (Five Waters). Here he, spent the last four years of his life. Vailima lies far up a steep mountain road. It is a rambling, green wooden house, half native style, half an English country home. Stevenson Im. said to havF enjoyed contrasts of native and English life. It pleased him to havg his household appear In evening dress at dinner, and to bewailed upon by Samoan natives. His many kindnesses toward the natives so touched them that they were aroused to enough energy to build a road up the mountain to his home. The crude hut important piece of work they called “The Road of the Loving Heart.” "It shall never he muddy, it shall ensure, this road that we have dug.” prophesied the natives on presenting their gift. ’ 7" 'l'he grave of Tusltala, the story teller, lies far up the mountain beyond Stevenson’s home. The trail Is so difficult that the services of over fifty natives were needed to carry the casket up to its destination. The mountain path leads through a tropical forest of the gorgeous flowers of Samoa. Hibiscus, cape Jflsmine, orange blossoms fill the air with their perfume. Many birds sing and flash through the underbrush, for native chiefs forbid use of any firearms on the mountain where Tusltala lies. On a tiny plateau at the top of the mountain" is the tomb with the memorial verse that Stevenson hintself wrote carved on the stone. Far away from even the quiet life of the native settlements Stevenson’s grave is the most peaceful place in an island of peace—"Niksah” in Chicago News.

LARGELY BASED ON FANCY

Dates of World’s Most Momentous Events Conceded to Have No Historical Accuracy. Christian antiquity, against all astronomical possibility, recognized the 25th of March as the actual day of Christ’s death. The opinion that the incarnation also took place on that date is founded on tt Cyprianlc work, “De Pascha Computus.” It argues that the coming of Christ apd his death must have coincided with tpe creation and fall of Adam. And since the world was created in spring, the Savior was also coficeived, and died shortly after the . equinox of spring. Similar calculations are found in the early and later middle ages, and to them, no doubt, the dates of the feast of the Annunciation and of Christmas owe their origin. Consequently the ancient martyrologists assigned to this date the creation of Adam, the crucifixion. the fall of Lucifer* the passing of Israel through the Red sea and the immolation of Isaac. The festival of the Annunciation Is now kept on March 25. which, for a long period, was the beginning of the legal year in England. The earliest authentic evidence of the celebration of the Anouncement by the Angel to the Virgin that she was to conceive and bear a son is in a canon of the council of Toledo, held in 656.

Musical Ear.

Notes differing only one-hundredth part of a tone from each other can be distinguished by Aie well-trained ear of a musician. Most people cannot perceive a difference of one-tenth of a tone, and a few can scarcely tell one tone from another. The cause of this curious disparity is due to slight differences in the structure of the cochlea, a wonderful piece of apparatus In the innermost part of the ear. says London Tit-Bits. It is a little body, shaped like a snail shell, and believed to be the part of the hearing apparatus which recognizes musical sounds. In Its structure it close ly resembles the Strings of a piano and even has a damper to prevent the mixture of sounds quickly following one another. « This little musical apparatus is set going by vibrations received from the middle ear or drum and in gome mysterious manner it sends these on to the brain through the auditory nerve in the form of musical sounds.

The lawyer’s wife and the minister's wife were discussing the merchant’s wife. "Mrs. Moore is all right,” admitted Mrs. Attorney, “or at least she would be if she could talk about some thing else besides herself. She certainly is an egotist. Do you know her husband? Is he as egotistical as She Is?” Now the parsonage lady knew that she must not say anything that would cause-trouble should she be quoted. So truthfully she replied: “Oh, he speaks Moore fluently, alwx”
