SYRACUSE, INDIANA, THURSDAY APRIL 26, 1934.

GRADUATION EXERCISES WERE HELD Dr. Kurtz Speaker at Commencement at High School. Dr. D. W. Kurtz of the Bethany Bible Institute of Chicago addressed the 1934 graduating class of the Syracuse High School at commencement exercises held in the school, last Friday evening. A crowd estimated at 800 attended the services this year, the largest number ever to attend graduation exercises here. Music of the program was furnished by Lore Ferverda, xylophonist from Silver Lake. The Invocation was by Rev. J. E. Jarboe, and the benediction by Rev. J. E. Pettit. Following the address of Dr. Ku. tz and the awarding of diplomas to the members of the class, Court Slabaugh presented the Honor key, for scholarship during the Senior year, to James Freeman. Points kept by the teachers on work of the students of the Senior class were given for scholarship in studies and citizenship. When Mr. Slab ugh presented the key, he’ said that the race this year for the honor had been so close that it had been necessary to carry figures out to the second decimal place to decide who was the winner. “Ideals in Education.” Dr. Kurtz announced that his address would be on “Ideals in Education.” He summarized four necessities before one would be truly educated. One should be skillful in the tools of learning, able to read, know how to use a library; that he should org nize the knowledge which he has acquired that he should become acquainted with the scientific method, should learn facts and not live by prejudice; and fourth, one must have inspiration or enthusiasm about something before one could get very far. - He said at various times the goal of education has been different; men were educated to be soldiers, to be gentlemen of leisure, etc. But that really, education is to know the meaning of life; that a race should be fit, so physically able to survive; intellectually rational, socially moral and spiritually ifi tune with God. Dr. Kurtz said that knowing how to read does not mean to read words on a printed page, but how to use a library, how to acquire knowledge where to go to obtain information. Then in organizing this body of knowledge, a person should get acquainted with the inanimate world, the animate world, and the psychic or human side. H seaid that we should all be acquainted with the universe in which we live, for that knowing the universe is to know the function of life. « Should Know Facts. Discussing the “scientific method” Dr. Kurtz said that the method of science is observation, experiment—which is observation under control—measurement, or regulation of conduct by the truth and facts learned. He said we need the scientific method in religion and everywhere else, that facts are not prejudiced, they should be learned and we should not live by prejudice. Going into this matter further, Dr. Kurtz said that people for the most part live by feeling, customs, habit, etc., instead of facts. He (Centinued oe Last Pa«e) WAWASEE HATCHERY IS BEING STOCKED Large and Small Mouthed Bass* Blue Gill* Being Put Into State Hatchery for Breeding. Securing breeders for the Wawasee State Fish Hatchery has been somewhat delayed by the cold weather. On Monday, Heinie Moesch, who is in charge of the hatchery, said that 150 pairs of blue giUs and 66 pairs of large mouthed bass had been secured by netting, all of which will be used at the hatchery. Moesch hopes to net 88 more pairs of large mouthed bass this week. This will make the number sufficient for the ponds. Raising small mouthed bass will again be attempted at the hatchery this year. Past attempts have not been very successful. This year mor* breeders will be used in the ponds than ever before. As an experiment, stunted blue giUs from the north will be placed inthe ponds with th* large mouthed bass. It w hoped that the bass will live on the spawn of these stunted bine gills. Intensive feeding will also be practised «t tbeimtchery this jear.

20 SHARES OF BANK STOCK TO BE SOLD 17 Shares Sold During Past Week; More Waivers Signed. Last week there was hope that by this week all of the stock of the State Bank of Syracuse, which had been turned in, would have been subscribed for. But due to an error in calculation, more shares of stock had to be sold than the amount reported last week. Seventeen shares, however, were sold during the week, and the amount of deposits to be waivered was considerably reduced. If all of the oral and written pledg es for stock are taken care of, there remain 20 shares of stock to be sold, and there are yet some waivers to be signed before the bank can open. The quicker this can be cleaned up, the sooner the bank will open Workers on the depositors* committee report that the banking department is satisfied with the progress made this week, but they want quick action on what there is left to do, and it is hoped that everyone interested will do all possible to help finish the work. In spite of the delays that have occurred in the process of rehabilitating the bank, at present everyone connected with the institution has confidence that the bank will reopen, for difficulties grealer than what now stand in the way, have been overcome. 0 LAST MONTH ROLL .
