YOUTH NOT HEADED FOR DESTRUCTION Y. H. Day Optimistic in Ad- dressing H. §. Graduates Pointing out the educational ad- vantages they have received over students of previous generations and | asking them to profit by these op portunities, School Committeeman Wiliam H. Day gave the principal address at the graduation exercises of the Senior High school class yes- | terday afternoon. t one time in his talk Mr. Day said: “I am not pessimistic about modern youth, Sure—they are inde- pendent—lacking in respect to their clders, frankly outspoken and all the rest of the things with which they | have been charged. But the past| generation was guilty of just as great or greater crimes.” Mr. Day’s address, in full, follows: “The message that I want to leave with you is two-fold in charac It is fitting on such an occasion this, that it should be so. Like the old Roman God Janus, you stand facing two directions. “In the first place I offer you my condolenc ‘While the diploma with which you will shortly be pre- sented is a symbol of achievement, and represents a certain definite ac- complishment in the lines of study vou have elected to pursue, it also is indicative of the fact that a cer- 1ain part of your life is definitely ter- minated. The part of your mind which is facing backward over the vears is no doubt a little sad today. The associations of years are to be interrupted — friendships formed within these walls must now undergo | the test of physical scparation. Some | may survive—most of them will be replaced by others. This is not said with a spirit of cynicism, it is just a fundamental fact of life. “To many of vou, today's cere-| monies mark the ending of your for- | mal study, and while you may have publicly protested against the disci- pline and longed for the freedom that wonld come with graduation— privately you have, I believe, appre: ciated your opportuniti times this appreciation comes after the opportunities are gone. “One day shortly before the Christ- mas holiday a new office boy, who had just left school, asked me: “How many days do we have oft for Christ- ‘Just one,” I told him. He me in amazement. “Gee,” he said, “that's tough.” “The opportunity of American ed- ucation is the foundation of our democracy. In an address delivered in June, 1914 before the Royal In- stitution of Great Britain, Walter H. Page, the American ambassador, made this statement: ‘The funda- mental article in the creed of the American democracy—you may call it the fundamental dogma if you like—is the unchanging and un- changeable resolve that every human being shall have his opportunity for | his utmost development—his chance to become and do the best that'h can.” “Constant advances are being made along ecducational lines to carry out this idea. To realize the progress that is being made, it is | only necessary to compare the schools of today with those of twenty years ago. | There aro” that will 2 | lookonts, phony? One man? No—it was Franklin and Ampere and Faraday and Morse and Bell and Edison and Steinmetz and Lodge and Marconi and Tesla and DeForest and a most of other scientists, each building on the foundation laid down by his pre- decessors. Today a telephone con- versation can be carried on between your home and London, but the end is not yet. If anyone thinks that perfection has been attained he has but to attempt to listen in some eve- ning when the static is tearing the atmosphere to tatters, Possibly there is in this room the young man who will overcome this demon of the ir. “No matter what your line of en- deavor, there are still giants to be overcome. “Are you going into business? roblems to be solved for the -best that is in vou.

Within five years the busi- ness had gone to extremes in both directions, beyond the wildest hopes or fears of its founder and the son had innumerable problems to solve which the her never anticipated. “The struggle of capital and la- bor, the problems of strikes and children in industry, pa- ternalism, communism and syndical- ism will call for much thought be- fore the solution is found. “Are you going into medicine? Notwithstanding the strides that have been made in this fleld, there |is still much to accomplish. A few days ago I read an article by an eminent authority on cancer. He tated that about one death in ten s due to this dreaded disecase, which has such a sinister sound that the papers seldom name it when printing the obituary of one of its victims. The conquest of this mon- ster is an object worthy of the high- cst endeavor. “If literature be your aim, there | is no limit to the good you can do. “The modern school of American | writers seems inbued with the idea | that realism and rot go hand in | hand. I hold no brief for the ‘sick- ishly sweet happy ending’ novel of the Victorian cra but it seems as | though some modern writer could learn to tell of things as they are without introducing the morbid {strain of odern letters. It is time that somebody learned that there are streamg of water other than | sewers that there are gardens as bage pails. ng as I have, T have kept in mind your motto: ‘Always to Ex- | cel,” but without losing sight of tha fact that everyone cannot reach the top. For those of you who may think that I have set too high a mark I have this word. There is the making of a bet- ter young manhood and young wo- “To make comparison With the past is an admission of advancing | age, and yet it is only in this way that progress can be determined. When I went to school we learned by rule and rote—individuality was stppressed and discipline was the watchword. “Today the opposite is true. Every chance is given the age to tind himself—"to become and | do the best that he can.” | “During a recent inspection of | some of our schools, T happened to | be i @ gymnasium with Mr. King, the president of the committee, | while some of the children of a lower grade were on the floor. They were running a relay race and hav- ing a wonderful time. He remarked | 1o me, “We didn’t have anything | like that when I went to school.” | “I never visit a school but what I see something that Dbrings this | thought to my mind. A few weeks | azo some of us looked over the high school building in Bristol.

Armed guards were lowered to prevent further disorder and the men were removed. Many were ill as they had had little food and only a limited amount of water. Some had attempted to eat oats intended for the mules. The guards were forced to invade isolated recesses to find some of the leaders. ‘While many required first treatment, only one convict was seriously injured. His skull was fractured when another prisoner struck him with a brick. ‘Warden W. H. Mackey announced the mutineers would be questioned today in an effort to fix responsibil- | ity.

Chas. A. Lindbergh was back in New York today to further his plan for a national alr passenger transport line. A preliminary outline of the pro- ject was given by Lindbergh in ‘Washington yesterday, just before he flew to New York to be a guest at the Locust valley home of F. Trubee Davison, assistant secretary of war, in charge of aviation. to prepare the detailed plans of or- ganization and the routes to be es- tablished,” he said. “I hope to be able to make a further announce- ment concerning these plans some- time during the next few weeks.” The colonel's air line plans were announced after a conference in Washington with Paul Henderson, head of the National Air Transport, Inc., which holds the largest con- tracts for air mall transportation, Howard Coffin, airplane designer; his St. Louis backers, and aviation ex- perts. Lindbergh made the trip to New York from Washington in two hours. He flew an army plane and was es- corted by two, army aviators and & Fokker army transport carrying Mr. Davison, Hanford MacNider, assist- ant secretary of war, and Mrs. Mac- Nider. A crowd of about 1,000 persons | greeted the air hero in a quiet re- | ception that contrasted with the wel- come of millions given him when he arrived from Washington less than two weeks ago.

Gives Advice on Destroy- ing Pests ‘Washington, June 25 (P—Cut. worms, foes of the truck patch, are night time bandits. Their depreda- tions show next morning when the sun wilts the seedling tomatoes, the cabbage leaves, lettuce and melons eaten during nocturnal revelry. The cutworm Is the young, or, caterpillar, of the night-flying moth. His whole life is made up of darke ness. The exception is observed on cloudy, gloom-cast days, when the worm may come from a con- venient hole in the ground to feast upon young, tender plant leaves and stalks. The moth lays its eggs upon plants or other objects and in some cases directly on the ground. The eggs hatch into cutworms of many descriptions. The commoner ones are stout, soft-bodied, smooth or nearly smooth, and cylindrical. They vary in color from gray to brown or nearly black, and sometimes are spotted or marked with stripes. Many kinds of cutworms go through the winter in the soil and begin work again early in the spring. In addition to vegetable crops they attack ‘ornamental plants and field crops. It's a slow process, but cutworms may be found individually and kill. ed—after their night's damage is done. Invariably they will burrow to a shallow depth beside the plant on which they have fed. Cut worms can be destroyed by using a poisoned bran bait. ‘A re- liable mixture is one peck or five pounds of bran; one-fourth pound of white arsenic or Paris green; one pint of syrup or molasses, and three or four quarts of water. For more extensive use the ingredients may be increased proportionately. United States entomologists warn that it is necessary to thoroughly mix the poison and the bran so that each particle will carry enough poi- son to kill. The syrup and water should be mixed and then added to the mixed bran and poison. Stir- ving should be done slowly. The bait should be placed along the rows or about the base of the plant, in the evening. Care should be taken to keep the mixture away from animals or irresponsible per. sons.
