Members of the Relief Corps, Grand Army and Sons of Veterans, and a del- egation of school children gathered at the bridge where the: exerc began with the singing of Nearer, My God to The Mrs. Jayne Seed, acting president of the Relief Corps conducted the ritual with responses by Secretary Lillian Brews and Department Chaplain M. Florence Dean. | realize that the interval between Ply- mouth Rock and Bunker Hill was the pre-natal period of this country, we shall better understand the crudity of its life. It was the period of beginnings in which the unborn child was gaining strength for its birth hour the first throes of which were realized at Lexington and Concord. In the Providence of God the way was being paved for the advent of Washing- {ton and his compatriots who were to es- tablish a mighty republic on foundations laid by these early settler and strength- cned by their successors. The Revolu- tionaTy, war was simply the putting into definite shape the developed colonialism of Bradford, Brewster and Winsiow. This little nation was brought to light through grit, sacrifice and holy fighting After the singing of Columbia, The Gem of the Ocean and prayer by James Mc- Kee, Sedgwick post chaplain the Reliet Corps officers and members participayed in earrying out the ritual, with Command- er Orrin M. Price representing Sedgwick Post and Commander George H. Doland representing the Sons of Veterans. The singing,of American and the ben- ediction by the department chaplain pre- ceded the closing part of the exercises when the school children strewed flowers LEGION AUXILIARY SUPPER ., AND PROGRAM AT ARMORY As soon as the Memorial day parade dispersed at Buckingham Memorial, Bat- tery B, 192d artillery, and the American Legion and Veterans of Foreign Wars units marched to the state armoryg Where they were entertained at supper by R.

It must be a great satisfaction to the surviving war veterans to realize the result of this sacrifice. When the Civil war began the United States was a second rate power. Great Britain not only snubbed us but openly sympathized with the Rebellion, and at one time came nearly to an open clash. We had no credit in the money markets of Europe, and the wise states- men of the Old World were predicting the speedy downfall of this experiment in democracy. ~Now we were rash enough to upset’ these these sage predictions; as a mat- ter of fact we didn't fall. Quite the con- trary we forged ahead by leaps and bounds in every branch of activity to the utter amazement of the world, and un- paralleled in the history of mankind. The growth of som~ of our cities which were hamlets in 17, like Detroit, have now reached the million mark. The develop- ment of our natural resources, the culti- vation of vast areas of primitive wilder- ness, the great floods of immisrants that have joined the ranks <f manual labor, the marvelous increase in our educational facilities and the increase of all branches of our industrial life have made us the leading creditor nation of the worid. All this greatness dates back to the moral rebirth of the nation when slavery was abolished. This greatness was brought to a test in 1808 when Spain attempted -some of her mediaeval practices in little Cuba. Rut Uncle Sam~said, “we have *no use for Torquemada or Alve or even Wevler on this continent.” In the clash that fol- lowed "it was shown that Spain’s ships were as rotten as her old civilization, and if ‘any doubt remained as to America's place in the future sisterhoods of nations it was dissipated in Spain's inglorious defeat. Once again, within painful memory. America has been forced into war, this time -not to drive slavery out of her own life, but to save the world either from assassination or slavery. Tt ie evident | that without the presence of our young men on the fleld of Flanders and eclse- where, the allies would have failed and Germany cold, hard, cruel and seifish would have dominated the world and the tyranny of the old Roman mpire would have been reestablished. And thus, Members of the Grand Army and Fellow Citizens, it.is evident that the United States is on the may, and it is up to us to see that it stays on the map. occupying the exalted place which has been bought by the combined sacrifice of Gettysburg. San Juan and the Argonne Forest. We must deal severely with ev- erything that would rob the people of their liberty. We must insist that the South give up its _abominable system of peonage. We must put a stop %o the spread of bolshevism In the north. We have a right to demand that all people, our influence to make future war impos- | sible. This must be done if the sacred things preserved to us hy the Civil war “shall not perish from the earth.” At the conclusion of Rev. Mr. Ricketts’ address Taps was blown by Louis Schwartzhurg. U. S.

Clark of Boston, president of the New England Coal Dealers association, expresses their positive belief that there will be a most serious coal shortage next fall and win- ter if the public does not wake up and take in their anthracite coal now as rap- idly as possible. President Clark reviews the factors af- ltotal. Every business man knows that natives as well as foreigners. shall be | *iih the exception of a few whose own-| obedient to the law. We must use all |7 claim that present prices do not per-; “that Freight Rates are Coming Down, So Why Should the Consumer Buy Coal Early?® It is quite evident that the writer of these articles is not in posses- siori of full knowledge of the conditions with which the anthracite industry is faced at the present time, In the first place, no one would be more pleased 0 have prices reduced than the reta er, but there are three factors involved in the cost of coal .to the consumer, namely “prodwction,” “transportation™ and “local distribution.” In 1920 the president's anthracite wage commission granted an advance from April 1. 1920, to April 1, 1922, and if we should try to reduce the miners’ wages before April 1922, there would certain- Iy be a general strike. Is it the reader's opinion that we should attempt this? The increase in labor costs over the pre-war period in the mining district is 138.6 per cent, according to the monthly labor re- view, (United States department of la- bor for October. 1920). The labor cost in the production of anthracite mining represents more than 70 per cent .of the the costs of ali supplies such as timber, mine ralls. grain, etc., have more than doubled; whereas the February Month- ly Labor Review states that the whole- sale price of anthracite coal has in- 98.5 per cent. This fizure means mine price and not the percen of increase in cost to the consumer. jt! is a matter of common knowledge that freight rates have been advanced ap- proximately 100 per cent. and there is every reason to beiieve that the retall- ers’ expenses have increased in the sam proportion. § There has been before the Pennsviva- nia legisiature two bills relating to taxes on anthracite coal. One of these has| been signed and becomés a law July 1 1f the second is acted upon favorably, it | means a tax on the output of the anthra-| cite mines of 3 per cent. in total, and as | 30 per cent. of the tonnage consists of | steam sizes which are sold in competition | with bituminous ccal at Jess than cost o production. the entire tax will have to! be carried by the 70 per cent. of do-| mestic coal Which will be an increase of 5 per cent .on the cost of coal at the| mines. One writer In saving that the price of | coal must come down states that if the | retailers do not provide cheaper coal, the federal, state and local governments | will zet on the job for them. When the| government took control of the sugar market did the price zo down? Was that the case In the wool market? What ' about the coal market beginning with the | fall of 19177 Our greatest advances in| prices have come under government reg- | ulationa. Many do mot recognize the difference between anthracite and bituminous coal. The situation in the anthracite industry is that the mineg are working full time their opration at a profit, and these mines must be kept in operation steadily tweive morths in the year if we are to have an adequate supply of do- mestic coal. The retailer stores all b can at this time of the year, but if the consumer does not buy and take this coal, the retailer has to stop ordering| from the mines. He hag to send out coal! in-order to take more in. If the pri- vate househoiders as a class do not buy, take and pay for their share each and| every month, there ‘will come a month when they cannot get it, and it is for this reason that we tell the consumer to] buy early.” The season freight rate which is often referred to, proposes to reduce the rate| of freight during the summer months | 25c, but raise it 25¢ during the winter, | when coal That will be 50c a ton difference between | maximum and minimum rates, and it too late this year to exnect such a rad- e : dren is not so easily transported. |- WHITEN SKIN AND BLEACH FRECKLES Squeze the juice of two lemons into & bottle containing three ounces of Or- chard White, which any drug store will supply for a few cents, shake well, and you have a quarter pint of harmless and delightful lemon bleach.
