This should lie - a happy day for the all looking happy. He state. t that he had prepu.ril a long speech for this vitthtcenth anniversary occasion that he way celebrating, hut lie lost it. and si. he would go on as U-.-t as he could: iii the lust few years there has lieeri an iocreusirffc numlier of , |fople atlei»Un~K the commencement exercises of the school. The school • has lieon turning out more graduates than in other years. The hi eh wanes paid unskilled labor during the war times made conditions look had for a time for higher education, but these fears have proved to if' groundless. There are 27,000,1)00 persons ' of school aire in this comity today — pbotwertty years. Of these, there Are 20,000.000 e.o oiled ih the . schools. names should ^lf on the schis.l rolls tendance is only 17.000,000. "which mean* that there are 12.000,000 but of school that should tie there. Some are out because of sickness, hut in most rn-e- t his ah-ence in inexrus- ' able. The whole numlier of days of school life, from the grade,- to the end of high school,1 is- 2|i'.0. In Ocean City every boy and trirl loses II per cent, of attendance in twelve years, or 1 'a years. This includes times ub.-eut on account of sickness. It is st ran ire, hut too true, that a itreat .leal of uhsenfe is due to parents. They keep their children out of school fur the most tritlpiy things. Nothinir ♦.Mould be allowed to interfere with attendance at school. If the country can spend billions for battleships, if billions arc spent on tohucro ami more than a billion are spent by the women for powder, cosmetics, etc., then the United States surely can ■Spend $600,000 for' education hi the schools. The past year has been the best in the history of the local schools. Prof. Stevens said. There was the largest enrollment month by month, there were fewer .cases of sickness, and there never has I fen n year when the teachers did more work. But there must If more school room. He spoke of one room in which u tfacher has sixty children under six years of age. . "Is Ocean City so poor that we f , have to ik> this, when no leucher can ■ handle more that twenty-five chil- j dren?" asked Prof. Stevens. He answered by saying "no". Continuing, , . he said, our facilities have been goixi, ! hut we have outgiown them. There can come mi greater return that frum whut is done fdr Jlie boys and girls, and the sneaker said he issure the city will respond. Prof. Stevens was followed by the Rex-. W. Warren (J lies, of Fast ' Orange, who was introduced by Prof. , O. W. Reirhly, principal of the Occun City High School, and whose address held the close attention of his hearers throughout. Mr. Giles had lieen heard in Ocean City on a previous occasion, 'ami a rare treat wps ex- 1 pected. None who heaixl Mm at the ■ commencement exercises was disappointed. He began by complimenting the class are those long on affection, but "essays delivered by the graduates, and in the course of his talk he laid . stress on' the nee. I of personality. , Some people are long on intellect, , Imt short on affection and will. They * will nof make good. In the same " class are those long on affection, hut short on intelligence nmi will, v A , great thing i-i business in tact— great , tu hnve terminal facilities. A woman j declared tact to lie the unsaid por- , tion of the thing one thinks. Person- j ulity is one's greatest asset. The ( speaker advised his heaters to try , to determine what God wants them to . /do, and then do it. Next to Holy ' Writ/is the Constitution "of the UnitedsStatc*. and the minister urged Ms young friends to stick close to nrnth. The graduates received many flowers und other presents, and after the. exercises they gave a brief reception to their friends. GUARDS MAKE RESCUE 1 A portion of the city's lifeguards went on duty for the summer lust Saturday, and the boys at Fourth 1 street, with the assistance of Capt, ' "Jack" Jernee, their director, made ■ . a rescue. They saved the lives of 1 George Fould ami Miss Alma Hinrkle ' of 317 Ocean avenue. Fould tried to 1 save the girl, ami their predicament ^ was seen hy Capt. Jeiiiee and Guards Behun and Mailer. Behan went out 1 with a can. as did Jernee. Mallnr, who. comes from Baltimore anil is an expert swimmer, accompanied them. The gourds got the girl from under the pier of the fishing cluh and took her to the lieach. Foutql, seeing the guards at work, swam ashore. Mrs. John M.- Moguugin, mother tjnd daughter, of Philadelphia, are here for a month, at their cottage, 1630 Wesley avenue. s Advertise in the" SENTINEL.
