Class of night Receive Diploma at St. Catherine's Academy. Thursday, June 20, 1907, marked the fourteenth annual commencement of St Catherine's academy at Jockaon. The program was carried out in St Patrick's hall, which proved wholly inadequate to accommodate the large audieucn which the high standard anJ increasing popularity of the school, to gether with the almost perfect night, insured. Promptly at I o'clock the curtain was raised and a rare, beautiful sight was disclosed. The stage was most artistically draped in the class colors, lavender and white. The class motto, "Not Failure, But Low Aim, Is Crime," was simply lettered in characters of violet upon a soft white background, while peonies and roses in profusion mingled with the foliage about the footlights. It was an exquisite setting for the picture of youth and innocence which quickly filled it. Two by two, St Cath erine's girls, gowned in pure white, and rangiDg in size' from the tiny prima ries to the tall young ladies of the class of '07, filed in to the strains of the en trance march, a duet, ably performed by the Misses Cecelia Flaharty and Loretto Cahill. The opening chorus, "Lift Thine Eyes," was a musical treat, given in three voices without an ac companiment. The salutatorian, Nettie Kidder, chosj the class motto as her theme. With her clear, pleasing voice and her usual easy delivery, Miss Kidder de lighted her audience. Her essay was a jewel casket, full to overflowing with beautiful gems of thought. "An un bolieving age does not produce great men," suid the salutatorian, "neither does the lack of moral courage pro duce a soldior, even though bo die oa the field of battle." Miss Kidder touchingly referred to the memory of Father Lysaght, the beloved founder of alma mater, and concluded her es say by extending the glad hand of welcome to the parents, relatives aud friends axsembled. Leora Duggan tboronghly convinced her audience that "True Nobility" can not be determined by external trap ping, that the nobleness in other na tures shall rise to meet the noblenes in our own and that only the celestial beauty of heaven can sutiate the heart and mind possessed of "True Nobility." In her essay, "la Ourselves Our Fortune Lies," Loretto McKenna struck a sympathetic chord in the hearts of her auditors. Her subject was a hap pv one and she dealt with it skillfully. "Failures are only kindly warnings of our weaknesses and disappointments but render the victory greater," said Miss McKenna. She clotted her ex cellent essay with tho words which seem to constitute the main spring of all human aotion, "In ourselves our fortune lies, life is what we make it." Gertrude Uarty fairly established the fact, "A Place iu the Ranks Awaits Us." She proved to ns that to the hidden heroes of the rank and file, of ten belongs the glory ; that as soldier of fortune each one must carry hi own knapsack and prove himself worthy the success which must orown strenuous labor. Miss Hartr'a delivery was exoellent and her manner of pre sentation was forcible. The class poem, ably given by Mar garet Walsh, paid additional tribute to the class of '07, to the faoulty and to the aoademy. The poem wa un usually well written and we were sorry when Miss Walsh bad finished. In her essay. "The Influence of Beauty in Everyday Life," Natalie Taylor brought out a fine point when ahn said that the poetry of men of pure and simple lives needs no revisement She maintained that there are latent beauties in the lowest of ns and that many of us are blind in the midst of the beauties of every day life Impossible is Uuamerioan, was the theme of Bonnie Barry's essay and none who listened to her could doubt it. Miss Barry was in exceedingly nne voioe and her remarks were con vincino and to the point. She traced tin history of the Uuited States from tue any or the lnlant colonies to the nays oi noose veil and attributed our marvelous growth and power to the dauntless spirit and good common sense of the American people. In a sweet, resonant voice, Frances Sawyer, class valedictorian, delivered the last farewell. She chose a her topic "The Ideal Woman," and the choice was well made. Misa Sawyer held that a quiet reserve, a pure heart and deep religion instinct must con stilute a true woman; further, that woman is barred only from such work a may narrow her dignity. The last goodby to teaohers, under cliusmates aud to St Catherine' was a sweet finale to a sad refrain leav ing wnu us the thought that it was good to be there. Mia Sawyer did ample justice to herself and to the class whioh honored her as it valedio toriun. After the esiaya had been delivered the class song was feelingly rendered by tue graduates. A aacred tableau, "One Sweetly, Solemn Thought," which interspersed the program deserve special mention. The part of the penitent ninner at the foot of the cross wa taken by Julia Heenan nd three little girls, Nonii Buckley, Madeline Davey and Helen ljowrey repressnted ministering a v angeis. auss iieecau a clear soprano voice, aooorapanied by the soft alto of the little girls wa exceeding! v pies ing and w hen the red light was thrown on the tableau, the effect left nothing to be desired. Anoiuer number deserving the un stinted applause whioh it received was a Reading entitled "The Conquered Kanner," whioh wa reoited by Celia Flaherty and pantomined by tight young ladit in coatume. At the close of the exercises the Very Rev P F McCarthy, after a few well chosen words of advice and congratu lation to the graduates, pesented the class member with their diplomas, medal and uuivaraity credit card after whioh the Rev Father conferred laurel for proficiency in atudiea upon Margaret Quinn and eertifiaftea for profioienoy in musio to Bonnie Barry ana neuie juaaer. Thus wa brought to a close the fourteenth annual commencement of St Catherine' and thu clewed an eventful yesr in the life of the acade my whose popularity is no longer looal Of the excellent wot carried on in tliia inttitittiou there is to qnoslion. The read era y has t'.is year been quali fied for not mat trail ing on the basis of high school doing the required work undtr the new law. The class of '0? may hold them selves particularly fortunate, each be ing the proud possesor of a first grsde certificate, merited withiout the usual six month's teaching experience and each likewise being exempt from all further normal training, being gradu ates from a school qualified under the new law recently passed. That the little village of Jackson is elated over the recognition St Cather ine's ha received at the hand the state superintendent, is putting it mildly. To the gocd Sisters of St Dorainio who have labored so long and unselfishly among us, is the credit due. That they Bend out our girls fully accredited to the state uni versity, that they prepare our girls normally and academically for teachers, and that our alumnae are filling important positions successfully throughout the state, are sources of pride to us. But that these young girls have laid the foundation for a true and splendid womanhood is of far graver moment to u and do they but live up to the teaching inspired at alma mater their influence must be felt in a world which sadly needs the woman, womanly and christian.

Em erson has four saloons at the su me rate, making $(5,000. Ao it seems to me that one saloon in Homer would be a better investment than all of Emersou's four. It seems as if some ono must have made a mistake either iu making out the program for (he Fourth or perhaps it was iu the printing. Now if the fun begins with the prrade at 12 :39 o'clock where in the name of common sense does dinner come in? And we always thought dinner the main feature of a picnic It seems that SA Combs is to make us twice welcome.

Nervous Worn-Out If you are in this condition, your nerve force is weak the power is giving out, the or gans of your body have "slowed up," and do their work imperfectly. This failure to do the work required, clogs the system and brings distress and disease. When the nerves are weak the heart is unable to force the life-giving blood through your veins; the stom ach fails to digest food; the kidneys lack power to filter impurities from the blood, and the poisonotis waste remains in the system to breed disease. Nerve energy must be restored. Dr. Miles' Nervine will do it, because it strengthens the nerves; it is a nerve medicine and tonic, that rebuilds the entire r.crvous system.
