Tuesday morning was one long to be remembered by the nine young ladies and gentlemen of the Senior class of the Sacred Heart sohool, for it was then that they reoeived their diplomas, testimonials of duties faithfully per-formed and well. A varied and entirely pleasing programme was tendered both by the graduates and Miss Martha Coppedge and Hugh Sullivan. The salutatory address, which made the audience feel welcome indeed was delivered by John Ahern. One very unique feature of the programme was a Spanish fancy danoe, the intricate and graoeful steps of which were skillfully danced by the Misses Nannie and Pauline Garrett, Blanche Wheatley, Nellie Powell, Alice Lemm and Irene Greene.

Burrua. Its Got Cramp Colic. The Republican platform adopted in St- Louis last week with its many vain, deceptive and grandiloquent lies about Governor Hadley, and denounced by almost half the deligates as a lie and a fraud on its face, although written by Hadley himself, calls to mind Chauncey De-pew's story of the boy walking through a graveyard eating green apples and singing "Near er My God to Thee." BUY AND PAY THIS IF YOU WISH 19 In addition to the programme given by the pupils of the Sacred Heart School Tuesday morning were two given Tuesday and Wednesday evenings at the Fen-ton Theatre. The Tuesday even ing performance was given by the girls of the school, and the one on Wednesday evening by the boys. Two short, humorous comedies, entitled 4iMurder Will Out" and "Carrotty composed the major portion of Tuesday evening's entertainment.

They were well suited to the cast and the amateur aotresses acquitted themselves very creditably. One special feature, which added much to the enjoyment of the au dienoe, was a brownie drill, taken part in by the younger pupils of the school. The little ones presented a very comical sight dressed in their brownie suits, and, judging from their antics, seemed perfeotly familiar with the brownie habits. Another special feature was the panto-mine performance of "The List Rose of Summer, by a number of girls in costume. The boys pleased their audience the following night none the less than the girls.

They presented a three-act comedy called "Up Caesar's Creek." Misses Nannie Garrett and Blanohe Wheatley opened the entertainment with a skillful rendition of Deumheiler's Festival Parade. Two "'Cause I Didn't Think" and "The Children's Frolic," were given before the play was pre sented, by the young children. The novel feature cf the play was a minBtrel show, which com posed the third act. In this, Chester Ferguson was interlocutor and Talmage Mason, Robert Wilks, John Ahern and Hugh Sullivan, end men. Sharon Pate and Chester Ferguson were soloists, singing "Schoolmates" and "Home-made Chicken Pie," respectively.

It is needless to say that the same standard of excellence already earned by the Sacred Heart school was maintained by the pupils in the two evenings' entertainment, for it is well known how much careful practicing pre faces all performances by the Ursuline Sisters of the school.

The eeoond part of the programme consisted of the reading of the graduating essays of the class leaders, Miss Nannie Gar rett and Louis Schult.

Mr. Sahult's essay, entitled "We Build the Ladder by Which We Rise," was read by Hugh Sullivan, and Miss Garrett's, entitled "Success in Life," was charmingly read by Miss Martha Coppedge. Both essays were well written and contained many philosophical truths. The first number of the third part of the programme was a piano solo by Miss Blanche Wheatley. Miss Nellie Powell's reoiting of "Aunt Sophronia Ta-bar at the Opera" caused muoh laughter, as did also the class prophecy, which did indeed pre diet varied life pursuits for the members, of the class.

The prophecy was delivered by George Study Manure Spreaders Before You Buy One THE proper place to study a manure spreader is at the local dealer's place of business, where you can see the machine, study it part by part, see- how each part is made and how it does its work.

Painter of Carrol-ton has filed forthe office of Lieu tenant Governor of Missouri with the Secretary of State. There is no doubt in our mind but that Will Painter was elected to this offioe four years ago, but rather than embarrass his party with a contest which would prevent legislative work until settled, he let his opponent have an offioe to which he was not entitled. We think Mr. Painter is entitled to the nomination for this reason alone, and for the reason that he has superior qualifications for the offioe; he is editor of a Democratic newspaper, is a progressive Democrat, and we hope he will bo nominated and eleoted in November by such a majority that there can be no possibility of a contest again.
