CEDARVILLE, OHIO, FRIDAY , MAY 10 , 1912. PRICE, $1.00 A YEAR CEDJR, MU HUGESUCES. Tho second annual “ Cedar Day” celebration o f our College was held last Friday, May 3rd, The day was ideal in every respect and every­ thing went off in-a-manner reflecting highly to the true CodarvJIle spirit. “ The Stunts” begun at 10 o’clock W ith “ A I,eap Year Hold -up” by the Faculty, who surprised the bfcud- ents and friends by the dramatic ability they displayed, by the title one can see that it was very “ tragic” and the heavy part was placed upon Prof. Banning, who, costumed, as a female, took the blue ribbon as ' the ‘.‘leading lady:” This stunt Was1followed in.,order by the different classes. The Seniors presented from their own “ private car.” “ The Table Turned,” a one a it, three scene sketch along the line of that popular' topic—The suf­ fragette. The class of *13 presented “ a true picture taken In 1927.” In , this s'tunt Bobby Deatvwas postumed -as a monkey and was compelled to under go a delicate surgical opera­ tion, in which various articles from bricks down'to toothpicks were re­ moved by the skilled surgeons. The prep stunt u a paper match” .was well presented by the Academy,rep­ resentatives and last hut not least came the “ Freshman Stew’’ . This was the best stunt of the day ana bespeaks weil for those who con­ ceived and' arranged it. Several of the boys of ’15 attired as “ Cannibals" came-tearing, out of the basement, down across the campus with their hideous yells, brandishing bowie knives, spears etc.—and bearing a victim roped to a bamboo pole, and a huge copper kettle. The scene was so graphic that the friends, visitors and students were, for the time be­ ing, transplanted, in their thots to the scene we would imagine prevailing in the “ Barbarous Fiji Islauds.” A lter placing their victim, Mr- W . D . Sterrett, in the pot they gave a dance around the pot, singing songs, .appropriate for the occasion set to popular airs-. * .While arranging the fire under the pot, Sterratt bolding attempted his get-away, striking out ou dead run thru the audience/ he /whs holly pursued by the fleetfooted Cannibals‘tind recaptured and again ■placed in the pot and Are started. Everyone tumbled that the joke was on one o f their good facu lty men, Prof. F. A . jurkat, as Dwight sit there in the pot, calm and composed expounding solid "historical facts" from time of Nero down to present date and eating salted peanuts ai) the while—However just before' the boiling point was reached, the Fresh­ man Girls heard the unusual corn- motion o f the Gatmibals and perciev* ing something wrong armed them­ selves with revolvers and. came to the rescue, they proved to be “ Joan1* o f Arcs and saved the dear Profess­ ors life. This ended the stunts, and ,hs a whole they surpasfed anything ever attempted,' by the college stud­ ents in-the foolish line. A very pretty May Pole dance was given by 24 of the college girls with music by the college orchestra. A regular picnic dinner Was spread in the A l­ ford gym. The guests ol honor be­ ing, the Stonier classes o f Cedarville Clifton and Selma High Schools. The tables were full to overflow­ ing with the good things to eat and amid college yells and songs, 9 rahs for the visiting High Schools, and class yells, a bounteous repast was enjoyed by all* After dinner, Mr. W . F» Harriman, Pros., of the Sen­ ior class; made a few brief remarks and introduced Mr. S. E. Foster of class ’ 18, who delivered the annual “ Cedar Day” Oration in a manner pleasing to all and a credit to ho and bis class. Promptly at 8 p. m. the bail game scheduled between the Varsity and Wilmington College was called. Inasmuch as the weather bad pre­ vented regular practlc, the hoys put up js good game o f ball. Pitcher Foster lacked the best of support _*nd the defeat of only 4 points (lfr-C) was taken in a sportsmanlike man­ ner. McOafllck was the “Big Stick” at batting, out of 5 times up lie made 6 hits, one run and was left on 3rd base 1?different times. This ended the second annual Cedar Day program and* from all sides we hear favorable comment 'upon the day. More friends and vis­ itors were present than last year and this added to the pleasure of the day and those unable to be there regret it all the more learning of the enjoyment they missed. It is a day .long to be remembered and every­ one looks forward with longing to the Third Annual Cedar Day in 1913. ELECTIONOF TEACHERS.

An unusually large crowd of citizens attended council meeting Monday evening, all o f whom are Interested in the cement sidewalks and curbs and gutters. > * Different reports were read and accepted the one from the treasurer showing that there was $2,010.07 on hand. The mayor’ s budget for the com­ ing year was submitted ana about $4,700 will be needed next' ypar.. This goes to the finance -committee for action. Mayor Bull also in­ formed Council that the village had been denied the three "mill levcy last year by the action of the tax commission. A recent examiner was the authority that no tax body or court could keep the village out of the three mill levy voted in ad­ dition to the regular levy. Mr. D ' S. Eryin asked that action be taken against using the village clump as a burying ground for carcases of animals. Mr. C. N. Stuckey asked the privi­ lege of building a retaining, wall along ids property. Tn the discussion of sidewalks and gutters Messrs.

TheCongressional Situation, Editor Haynes, in his announcement to the people’ has clearly stated his position an a candidate for congress. HiB recognition oi his oppon­ ents as men o f merit and ability was fair and as he said, after all It is a qi; stion of ability of the nominee to unite the party to be elected. Mr. Haynes Is an able man, one who can grasp the great issues of the day aud lend his support on the side that most interests thp people. His private life stands unblemished and his record in bis own county Is especially commended to all friends of good government aifil a square deal,* In our opinion ho Is the one candidate that can unite theparty, hav­ ing afc all times been outside of the districfc-factionninght. It has been proven in the two past eampaighs that no Republican can be elected to congress without the solid vote in Greene county. Tiffs cannot be , this year. The friends of Dr, Fees w'ouJd never support Judge Slump ’ If he were nominated. Just so with the friends of the Judge.if the Dr. ’ was nominated. Clinton county stands ready at all tunes to cut down any Greeito county nominee and this has proven true-in each of the two past campaigns. The Democratic nominee this year comes from Clin­ ton county, the home Of Congressman Denver, and this must be taken into consideration. Clermont and Brown counties have ho candidates and their vote will be divided,, Editor Haynes without doubt getting his full share. Stoth Brown of Warren county Is making a bid for the Boldier vote in.every county in the district. With the factional fight as it has been in this county, certainly there is no one that can say that the two Greene county candidates would agree to support one or the other, should be bS nominated. I f the Re­ publicans of this county will go outside of the factional light and sup- portEd itor Haynes, they will <io a great service in putting down both factions. 1 . Highland county has not had a candidate for congress in twenty-one years, and for this reason the leading people in the county are Insist­ ing on Editor Haynes.being the standard bearer.for the district. Di\ H. M. Brown is generally recognized as not an available candi­ date because of his factional alignment m the past and at. the present time with the Hi.Idebrant organization in Clinton coupty. Reporlsal- so indicate that he will p o ll a comparatively. light vote even in his. own county, not having the qualities for success owing to his factional standing. During the past two weeks a very notable change o f senti­ ment has been noted in Clinton county and many of the loading citi­ zens, who are opposed to the Hiidebrant organizatton, being inclined toward Dr Fess, have turned tp Editor Haynes as-the only <anriidate that can down the Hildtebranfc crowd supporting Dr Brown. In this county people readily see as the result of the factional fight, one side supporting Judge Sliqiip antl the 'other Dr. Fess, who was defeated three times for the congressional nomination in the Eighth district, that a third man must be looked too and it is none other than Editor •Haynes.1 1 / ' ■ - ' v Tuesday afternoon Mr. Haynes called upon a number of citizens and it was remarkable the recej-ffion he receivbd. That, popple are ready to eliminate factional troubles by nominating a third man. is evident. His personal appearance was pleasing and his personality moved all that is claimed of him. Having been reared upon’ a farm, acquainted-. With the needs and conditions of. the fanner he is well adapted to su p -' port their interests. He is not a theorist and for that reason stands close to the people for the more elevating and practical things in life. Hia work in behalf of the Hillsboro chautauqna association, of which he .is a member, strongly commends him to the people of his county. Wliafc.more could be said for a candidate? With these statements to be true as we-know them to bo is it any wonder that the Herald js standing for R . A . Haynes for congress'? Frightful Accident Last Saturday. Mrs. A lex McDorman and daugh­ ter, Bessie, whiles returning fro/n Springfield last Saturday met with a frightful accident when at the Hunry Harper fairm.
