It is characteristic of the conservative East to give the new-comer a "wide berth" for a Ion? time, unless te has a pedigree of approved length. He is put into no position of trust un til he can boast a residence in his particular town of a decade at least. Not so, the impulsive "West. It receives with open arms the stränger within its gates, and on no other credentials than his face value, his presence, as it were. The "West sometimes gets buncood but the East probably suffers far more - in depriving herself of much talent which she might use to advantage. Xew people locate in Plymouth every year, bringing to us, no one knous how much of worth, or even genius. There may be among us now many a "mute, inglorious Milton" waiting to be discovered. If we could utilize this latent power, providing the proper atmosphere for bringing it ont and developing more, what might we not become as a cityt Are we not too conservative, too suspicious of the "up-startM, and too jealous of the man with a new idea, and so quench the inspiration of some of those who would, if encouraged, serve us bestf

. KILL THE FLY. The Plymouth board of health has done a fine thing recently in putting into the hands of every school child in the city a card entitled, "Kill the Fly." It has been discovered that the parents have also become interested in the work of destroying this pest and danger of every community, and the good effects of the little card will be far reaching indeed. As Prof. Zueblin said in one of his lectures at South Bend recently, it is always necessary to take the people along in any reform or regeration or important change in any city. The people must be educated to want what is best, in most cases, before a thing of this kind can be successfully carried out in the city life. The health board are therefore doing the right thing in giving out

for all the people this valuable in-

formation. The people are not slow to know what is best for them. They have gladly accepted all the re-

forms which our pure food laws

have placed on the sale and keeping of foods of all kinds and are ready for more of the same kind. The time will soon come when they will all join hands in a great

crusade to "Kill the Fly." see the fly fly for his life!

The county council in session Tuesday and Wednesday made appropria-

tion of $6,000 for a new Brownlee bridge in Plymouth.

Judge Hess appeared before the council on behalf of the city council of Plymouth and explained both the law and the necessity for the bridge, and there was only one vote against the proposed appropriation, that of Mr. Snyder. It was shown that Plymouth pays more taxes for the building of bridges in other townships than those townships do themselves. The matter is now with the commissioners and they will advertise for bids and in all probability let a contract at their next term. The council considered seriously the approposition of $11000 for the purchase of voting machines, but concluded to postpone action until their September term.

HIGH SCHOOL CLASS 1911 GIVEN DIPLOMAS

Thirty-one "Normal" Students Finish and are Graduated With Honor---Large Crowd Attend Event---Much Fine Music---Dr. Butlers Address.

Before an audience which packed the Washington School auditorium Tuesday night, the Plymouth High school class of 1911 received their diplomas from the Board of Education, the precious documents being presented by Mr. Geo. H. Thayer. The class then sang the graduation song with a fine rendition and sat down amid the plaudits of many friends. Class Roll John Carl Jacoby, Eva Jane Bolman, Ned Arntz Kilmer, Edna Staley Van Vactor, Leron Russel Wood, Claudia Fern Moore, Curtis Eugene Haag, Carl Frederick Leippert, Elta Aldred Brock, Erma Marie Sanner, Opal Clarse Zeiters, Flossie Leota Shephard, Bessie Jacoby, Althea Florence Massena, Vernal Cloe Conger, Helen Tomlinson, Marguerite F. Holtzbauer, Rose Lima Holtzbauer, Melvin Ardeene Price, Margaret Adela Davis, Ruama Harding Sult, Clare Ethel Jones, Hazel Marguerite Sands, Eulalie Beghtel. Wm. Earl Stoneburner, Erma Meta Ulrich, Ruth Lineberry, Ralph Clinton McCormick, Roscoe Glenn Lee, Ruby Fay Seiders, Hazel Fern Truex. The stage was simply, yet tastily and beautifully decorated with draperies of class colors, moss green and steel gray, ferns and statuary, the bust of George Washington gift of the class occupying a central place. Four large bauquets of lily of the valley, the class flower, ornamented the platform. The Seybold orchestra was exceptionally delightful in their renditions and pleased everyone.

Dr. Nathaniel Butler of Chicago

University, who delivered the ad-

dress last year, was the speaker of the evening. Under his subject, "Some of the Common Errors Re-

garding Education," he impressed

the need of training for the busi-

ness life. It is fallacy to suppose that the sooner a boy leaves school

and goes to work the faster he will

get on in life.

The High school course is itself

a part of life, not merely a prepar-

ation for life. A graduate from the Eighth grade we expect to make his living and not be a burden on the community, said Dr. Butler; but

of the High school graduate we ex-

pect more; he should make his liv-

ing and give something to the

community in addition.

A remarkable instance of the

value business men place on edu-

cation was shown by a recent visit of a company of Chicago men to Texas in April. At the differ-

ent cities they visited the schools and these Chicago business men always encouraged those taking High school courses by telling them that students who had finished a High school our3e were always more desirable as employees, learned the business faster and were advanced more rapidly than those of less education. Juet before Dr. Butler's address Miss Julia Yockey sang very sweetly M4Bloom On, Bloom On." The girls' chorus was one of the deligots of the evening and they encored heartily.
