The working | people have alw: thought a high | tariff would result in increased liv- ing costs and their one bitter ex- periment on a wheat tariff, which !raised the price to bread to about 125 cents a loaf, still rankles. It is not believed, however, that lany attempt will be made to re- I strict the flow of food stuffs. Cana- dian and Australian canned foods and certain other Empire grown foods get the benefit of a small preferential tariff, but California, | 'Oregon and other American states are still able to sell the United Kingdom millions of dollars worth | lof fruits and canned goods. Some of the American products which are likely to feel the weight of an extensive scheme include safe- ty razors, talking machines, films, cameras, farm implements, automo- biles and iron and steel.

Democracy is not of necessity a leveler. The educated man and woman may emancipate themselves from herd opinion. Mastery of Self “Third—The truly educated per- son has developed a high degree | of self-mastery and is capable of positive self-criticism. I have placed this trait last because it is most difficult of realization. Mastery and criticism of self presuppose stan- dards by which to judge, princi ples and ideals to which one mu force himself if need be, to con- form “When a ship s on the high seas | beneath fair s and under the influence of favoring breezes it seen hat compass and ruddes are st useless. But when the sky is darkened, when the storm breaks and the waves beat high the captain’s eye is ever on the compass and the rudder holds the vessel true upon her course In calm and storm alike the points of the compass remain the same and the polestar still shines. “Thus it is with standards by which one motivates his life. If the world were Static and if person- al storms and stresses never arosc they would be all but useless. But such is not the case. The world moves at a terrific rate. ~We are even now confronted by the prob- lem of what to do regarding the new literature, the new fashions in dress, the new manners and cus- toms in society, the new defiance of old conventions, the new ideas of right and wrong. These prob- lems can all be solved if we recog- nize the fact that there are im- muntable standards of conduct and living which were good in the days are equally good today. The es- sential characteristics of true man- hood and womanhood do not| change. Truth, honor, fidelity, kindness, generosity, loyalty, clean thinking and living, love of God and man—these are polestars which | will hold firm and true the course of anyone's life and the truly edu- | ence to the fact that the education |of this class represents an expen- diture of some $30,000 of City and Territorial money. “This sum might have been ex- pended in street improvements, in extending the sewage system or in the construction of a municipal building. And yet there is no one (S0 blind to real values as to even |hint that this amount® could have [been expended in any manner | which will yield one-tenth the pres- |ent or future returns to Juneau or |to Alaska. As we view this class tonight we are satisfied that money |expended for education is an in- vestment par excellence.” |, In Alaska, he added, a greater | per cent of the pupils enter High School from the grades and also the percentage of those completing their High School courses is greater (than those in the States. Twenty-Fifth Program “This is Juneau's twenty-fifth commencement program,” he add- ed. A member of the first gradu- ating class, Grover C. Winn, Treas- urer of the School Board, was one of those on the platform. Others reside here or elsewhere in Alas- ka, and some of them in the States. “Sufficient it to say the graduates of Juneau High School have made good in all walks of life, and that the members of the present class and student body have a tradition |t uphold in that regard,” he said. He pointed out the improved school facilities that have been af- forded present day students. “It is a far cry from the six-room wood- en school building which once stood on this site and which members of the Class of 1904 attended, to the two school buildings, magnificent by comparison, which the present school generation is privileged to use. “And yet this one important point must not be overlooked. It is not the stone and mortar that make a school but the spirit which actuates teachers, pupils and the public which supports the institution. In this, as in every other matter in which the human equation figures it is the spirit ‘which maketh alive'.” Change In Conditions The change that has taken place nilocal school facilities, he said, has been more than equalled by the changes in living conditions in the world in the past quarter of a century. The gas engine has bee: perfected, and the automobile de- veloped until it has become a house- hold necessity. Telephone, wireless, airplane, the movies represent strik- ing alterations in physical life. Books, magazines and newspapers lend their aid to education. “Schools dot the land. And strange as it may seem in this age of mad haste they are literally filled with: stu- dents. In 10 years alone the high school enrollment of the nation has trebled. It is not youth alone that is at school. Adult-hood is striving to make up lost opportuni- ties as is evident to anyone who will scan the pages of almost any magazine.” S et MRS. M. A.
