Freeport, Jufe 21.—The 28th annual exerelsea of the Freeport High Hchool opened Hundny evening at the First M. E. Church, when the baccalaureate sermon was delivered by the Rev. Er¬ win H. Dennett, pastor of fhe Baptist Church.
fhe church was bcAUtifiilly decorated with roses. Members of ,1*6 graduat¬ ing class marched Into tl>)* church In a body from Ihe Rundny srhool room and occupied seat.H In the front. WHh them were Superintendent of .Schools Oeorge P>u Bols and members of the facility.
The regular servico was conducted by the pastor of the church, Pr. W. E. Thompson. A very large congregation wns pre.sent. "
Dr. Dennett said In partr
"Not long ago we heard a sertnon by the Rev. W. E. Thompson on fhe blesslrigs of old nge. My Idea of the blessing of old nge is to be allowed to Hs.sociafe with the young people. I am glad that I live so near the school, be¬ cause I have loved to watch you troop In and out of the building when the morning and evening hells rang, and I hnveToved fo watch you at your games in the school yard. The Bapti.st Church, the M. E. Church, nnd fho Public Hchool can never he too close together, because the church of America nnd the .schools of America nre tho bulwnrk.s of the Republic.
"This audience will never be together again qh It is tonight. Whnt shall I 'Hiiy to you boy.s and fcirls who are .shut- ling the doors of tho school hou.se be¬ hind you? These are the djya that you (¦annot forget and the days you will cherl.sh the fnost ns the years roil on.
"When I Wiis a boy I carried a P.lble along with my text books, and the teacher and nil the .scholars used to read a verse fiom it every morning in school. I have never heard of one of the.se girls growing up to be a shop- llftor, or of one of those boys growing fo be a murderer or a thief for having rood the Bible in the school. Our fore- fathera laid the Bible In the cornerstone of Liberty when they laid it in the public school. Not to be hidden, but to grow, and expand and fill the entire building.
"I am In favor of fhe "Blblo in the school; onr Hil)lo, the Catholic Bibte, and the Jewl.sh Bible, for the uttcrlngs ^f the old Jewish prophets were mag¬ nificent.
"If the achool grow Godless It need not be wondered nt when the Bible is not read within the portals as a part of fhe morning work.
"I love the public .school because It is thero that tho boys and girls grow tip among the boys and girls of other nations and other-religions, tt will better flt them for the life they will have to face after leaving the school n« you ai'e doing now.
"I charge you to recognize all the various nationalities and do not speak of them in the low terms that are ap¬ plied as so-callbd "nick names" of the present day.
Wo owo to the Jews the preserva¬ tion of the Scrlptur.es; but for them the records of the olden times would never have been available as they are today, nnd If we enter the Pearly G^tes It will bo because of the fact that a young Jew died for us.
Remember that Italy Is not entirely composed of the peoples we see here in the streets and on the fruit stands, llaly gave tJs Art, Music, Sculpture, s\mshine and flowers, and her beautiful cities are as modern and wonderful ns oura..
"I say to you, do not wait for victory, because It never comes to those who wait. Remember the well-known -say¬ ing, 'Do It now,' and realize that America Is In need of her youth more so now than ever.
"There Is plenty of room at the top, young people, and It is up to you whether you will hold back with the crowd or forge ahead, and then extend them a helping hand.
"Alexander, Mtt, Napoleon and General Sheridan were all young men when they became famous. The boys of the ciy;tt"V.ar saved the day even as the boya of J917 tavcd ihe world.
"In tho little old cen>etery on Church atreet la a grave stone, the like of which I do not believe Is In existence ,ln tho country. It marks the graves 8f the Mott boys for whom tbe D. P. B. Mott Post of the O. A. R la named. These boya fought In all the principal battles of the civil war, and died at the grand old ages of 17 and 19. Unless I am mistaken, tbu patriotism of Free- port will never allow that stone to leave th« villase, but will put It wher« It will bo seen and marveled at as a lasting tribute to youth.
"Remember, too, that Out- Redeemer was only SS when He died on tbe cross. "Ijaam to say 'Np,' young people, when it l8 A goad deal easier to say 'yes.' "nie createat power In the world Is Truth, Usht and Love ot Justice. W.Ullam of Oermany thoustft that he AOiiiA ^ulld a powerful maohlne that crush the world. Ve nearly

"One Man on the Block Makes Public Opinion"
No matter how good our service is, there is usually one man on the block who is forever finding fault with it. You know the man we mean. He is a good fellow et heart and talks sanely enough upon other subjects, but when he discusses this company's service he loses his balance completely.
What we regret most, however, is not that this man is soured against us, but that his attacks are permitted to go unchallenged by his friends who are also our friends.
In other words, you and hundradc o( other satitfied customers in the same neighborhood take good service (or granted, accept it, ar.d say nothing about it. Your silence thus becomes hiiTgulden opportunity. With lips sealed, you innocently give him an encouraging slap cn the back.
We value your good will, everyone's gooti will. Thi-s .orripaiiy is your company, the public's company. Now let us work together tu convert th># man from a knock*r into a t>ooBter.
