It is nearly time for arrangements to be made for a proper ■observance of Memorial Day. Owing to the fact that May 30 falls on Sunday, orders have been given by the Indiana department of the G. A. R. fixing Saturday, May 29th for the date of the usual ceremonies. The editor and wife worshiped in Indianapolis Sunday, little dreaming that advantage would be taken of their absence by the office force to go fish in’. In as much as the fish were ripe and yielded willingly to the alurements offered, we consented to pass the offense this time with this public repremand. The Port Recovery Journal, for a long time under the management of our former townsman Leslie Clark, has changed hands, W. H. Green & Co. being the new aspirants. Mr. Clark has made a live paper for the of Port Recovery and we 'are sorry to hear of his departure. No doubt we will hear of him again soon. There is nothing the matter with this year’s graduating class of the Rensselaer high school, ■except that there is not enough of them. It consists of seven persevering and studious young people, four girls and three boys; namely Grace Thompson, daughter of Judge S. P. Thompson; Clara Parker, daughter of P. M. Parker; Pearl Blue, daughter of Philip Blue, landlord of the Makeever House; Amanda Hoyes, ■daughter of Mrs. Hester M. Hoyes; Prank Kelly, son of Mrs. Agnes Kelly; Albert Marshall, son of Attorney R. W. Marshall and Hayes Young, son of Mrs. Young, of Mt. Ayr. All of these except Misses Thompson and Hoyes and Mr. Young belong to families which have already furnished one or two graduates of this school.—Republican. There is a lot of boys around town frpm , eighteen to thirty years old who seem to think they are hot sports because they stay up late nights smokeing and chewing tobacco and drinking whiskey and calling each other by their last names. The truth

of the matter is they are ordinary boys without any aim in life and by an idle and vicious youth are preparing themselves for a useless life and dependent old age. Time is the only capital, most of these boys have, and every hour now is worth a year ten years from now, but they waste it as recklessly as if they had a license to live forever. If some of the boys we know of had spent in study the hours they have loafed around the livery stable and box cars the past half dozen years they could have been through college now. Or if they spent them at work they could by this time be the master of any trade.
