SATURDAY JUNE 10, 1905 VERSAILLES COMMENCEMENT. Prof. A. H. Harris Makes a Pleasing Impression on the Cultured Audience Present. Versailles, Mo., June 3rd— The Commencement exercises of the Washington School for the term ending June 2nd was among the best ever had in Versailles. The Educational Sermon was preached Sunday, May 28th by Rev. G. W. Watts, D. D., pastor of the Baptist church. It was very excellent and was highly appreciated by all that were present. The exercises of the Primary Department was held Thursday evening, June 2nd in the Baptist church under the direction of the assistant teacher, Miss Stella Christian. The exercises spoke well for both teachers and pupils. The graduating exercises were held Friday evening in the Auditorium of Kraus's Opera House. A most excellent program was rendered in the presence of a large audience. Editor Huston of Sedalia delivered the Commencement address and presented the diplomas to the class. Many compliments were passed on the Editor's address by members of Board of Education and others. Every one was well pleased with the Editor's address and will welcome his return at any time.

Miss Laura Freeman, of Marshall is visiting Mrs Martha Slaughter this week. Greene Poindexter and Misses Edna and Katy Cooper departed for Arrow Rock Sunday. Should a Young Lady Hold Her Escort's Hat? If your questions were not duplicated many times in mall, it would seem too silly to consider. But its frequent repetition convinces me that there must be localities in which young women are given to holding their escorts hats during church services. That a man would permit such attention proves his absolute innate lack of gallantry and his ignorance of common politeness. It is the man's place to be of assistance. He relieves a woman of her extra wrap or any parcel, but he does not permit her to burden herself with his belongings. That "hat-holding" is an unwarrented fod which would brand its participants with verdancy in any well-bred community. Kansas City Star.

Plenty of rain fall and the the variacleness of the temperature indicates that this year will be one of plenty in the harvest of agriculture products such as corn, wheat, hay and many other farm staples. Our farmers should feel highly elated over the abundant harvest they reaped during the past decades. Few people have had phenom enal success, such as the American is enjoying today. It is most sincevely hoped that success will not cause him to loose his head: THE SUMMER NORMAL FOR NEGRO TEACHERS. Inferior teachers of colored youth should be rapidly set a side in this State, since the State has provided a Summer School for Normal instruction. The inferior teacher has nothing to dodge behind now. A glorious opportunity is given them, during the summer vacation, to use for these improvements. Communities having this inferior class of instructors must urge upon them the necessity of their either improving their qualifications as teachers or quit attempting to do something that they are not prepared to do. Our youth needs education of the best type. It is preposterous to presume that an incompetent teacher can impart competent or true education. Its up to the patrons of the school as to whether they shall have their children's minds warped and ruined by incompetents. peculiar creatures. Their peculiarities divergent directions.

ENCOURAGE HOME TALENT-STAND BY YOUR OWN CHILDREN People are peculiar creatures. Their peculiarities and eccentricities extend in divergent directions. One of the most striking characteristics of a people that is very noticeable is their failure to see merit and talent in those near about them—with those whom they live and have associated with for years. Every community is provided with the mania of "going wild" over something or somebody from afar. So often we find people enthusiastically eulogizing the abilities or gifts of a "new comer," whose talents are no better than those of their immediate association. We must be protectionist enough to look after the building up of home institutions—home talent. Give to your neighbor, his son or daughter, the credit and praise that his or her gifts justly merit. They should not ask more and the community could not afford to give less. Dont let the glare and glitter of the visitor dazzle your eyes so greatly that you will unjustly criticise or fail to properly appreciate your own home talent. Let us lay hold of those, in our different communities, who have special abilities, and encourage them to cultivate their gifts. Would it not be a wise thing for each community to strive to raise itself to the highest standard of culture possible? To do so, means to stand by young men and women, who are struggling to get to the front. The greatest elevative energies are not those from the out side but the inner prompting of the man, family or community. DIXIE JUBILEE MUSICAL On Friday evening, June 2, the elite society of Sedalia were royally enraptured and entertained by the matchless, unequaled, and unexcelled Dixie Jubilee Concert Company under the management of Mr. William Buckner, the renowned basso singer, and his beautiful wife Mrs. Neale Hawkins Buckner, one of the world's greatest and sweetest sopranos. They were suported by Miss Hawker, Mrs. Kitchens, Mr. Honey Moore, Mr Willoby, and Mr. George Hall. This company is composed of first class, talented people, and they give a first class entertainment. They were greeted by a large, appreciative, well behaved audience. We hope they may come again, Quinn Chapel, A. M. E. church, is to be congratulated in securing this high class entertainment for our citizens. Barnum's Epigram, not Lincoln's Representative Snook of Ohio has a curious constituent of a literary turn of mind, who studies the sayings, supposed to have fallen from the lips of great men.

As Mr. Snook is an accommodating Democratic representative he referred the inquiry to the Library of Congress, where he was quite surprised, as lots of other people will be, to learn that the words were not Lincoln's at all. Assistant Librarian Spofford sent him a little note, saying that the sentence does not occur in any of Lincoln's writing, and that Mr. Nicholay, Lincoln's secretary, told him (Spofford) that they are spurious. Mr. Spofford says Barnum was the author of the popular sentence, which has been heard hundreds of times on the stump in every political campaign for the last quarter of a century. Washington Post.
