COMMENCEMENT
The word commencement implies
that the student Is* at the beginning.
The commencement at a higher insti
tution of learning is taken as denot
ing the time when the graduate goes
out into the world to take part in its
professional or business activities. It
is for such a graduate the commence
ment of his participations in the
broader ‘concern of life. The word
cemmer- ement implies that the stu
dent should look forward to what is
yet to be achieved rather than back-'

enjoyed by our people, is here a.'-jain.
The exercises at the public schools are
now on, to be followed by the college
program, and later by .the orphanage

interesting programs have been ar
ranged, bringing jnto the community

speakers. These exercises are always
attended by large crowds and it is
right and goodf that they are, for who
can measure the value of these insti

TIMELY ADVICE TO PARENTS
The largest toll <*>f child life by
reckless automobile * driving in ,,the
United States occurs in Cook County,
111., according to Coroner Oscar Wolff
of that district. “Your child must be
quick or dead,” the comner says, and
he points out the fact that a responsi
bility rests upon fathers and mothers
as well as with ^he automobile drivers
their county registration certificates,
ang in case they were due any taxes
in 1924 they should carry 1924 tax
receipts—all evidence supplied to the
supervisor of registration in order to
secure a town registration certificate
should be carried -to'the polls and
shown to the managers of election in
order to admit of voting.. The manag
ers will take up the town registration
certificates, and after examining the
other papers will return them to the
registered electors. . '
This Information is given because
a good many people go to the polls
without knowing exactly what papers
to ^ske with them, and in order to
save a second trip to secure the neces
sary papers, the information is pub
lished in advance.
The polls will be open from 8 a. m.
to 4 p. m. at the City Police Station,

“Of the 19,000 persons killed by
automobiles in the United States in
1924, 5,700 were Children,” said Coron
er Wolff in his writing. “The over
whelming majority of these young
sters were killed while engaged in
running errands or going to and from
school. In Cook County’s huge toll for
six months, only three children were
killed while playing in the streets.
