THE SALINE CANDY KITCHEN
HONORED THE DEAD
AND THE LIVING
MEMORIAL     DAY     REVERENTLY
OBSERVED  IN SALINE
Splendid Address Delivered ."by "Professor R. Clyde Ford of
Ynsiliintl
Despite rain during a part of tire
forenoon, Memorial Day was most
fittingly observed in Saline, the program arranged for the occasion biing
c.arried out in every cetail as announced in our issue of the 23rd.
The exercises in the opera' house
were started promptly at 2:30 by the
assembling of the veterans and speakers on the -stage. Selections by the
band, was followed by an impressive
invocation by Re,-. E. R. Stevenson.
A patriotic, number by Messrs. Miller,
Henne, Hiidner and: linch, .accompanied by Miss Daisy Lavender at the
piano, w.as heartily applauded. Winsome misses then pinned flowers to
the coat lapels o;f the soldiers, a reverent custom which grows in s-gniii-
canee with each passing year.
Miss Rosina Scaai.er, fccc.m ,a i d
by Mits Edythe Skinner, sang another
patriotic solo 'and graciously responded to an encore.
Professor R. Clyde Ford, of the Ypsilanti Normal faculty, delivered the
address of the day. Mr. Ford's fatl.er
saw several years . service iu the
Union army during the Civil 'War and
was a prisoner for a considerab.e
length of time at Andersonville. Naturally the speaker was well prepared
to recite tlie glorious history of our-
eoujntry in all her acts w.h;en forced
into any conflict. He gave a brief
resume of the wars in which wc
have engaged, fiom 17T6 to the present, and always the United States
.'has been on • the side of right and
liberty. He ascribed as some of the
reasons for our greatne-s the fact
that we have been an industrious
people, generous and hospitable, and
that we have never engaged in any
conflict except to preserve the liberv
ties qf ourselves or some oppressed
peoples. Hope for us in the present
great world struggle depends on. men,
munitions and money, and we have
them all in great abundance, and
the,y 'all will be used to the limit*" if
need; be.
The Quartet followed with another
fine selection which was so well received an encore was called for and
freely given.
The band, a small but capable organization from Ann Arbor, played
whil.e the audience dispersed and
later played a few selections on the
street till it was time for them to
take the car for home.

Rheumatic and Kidney Ills.
Are you troubled with rheumatism,
| kidney or bladder affections? Any
such symptoms as swollen muscles o •
joints, backache, headache, dizziness,
nervousness, played-out feeling, urinary irregularity, punlness under the
eyes? You need Foley Kidney Pills.
Mrs. Frank P. Wood, R. F. D. 2, Morrill, Maine, writes: "I found relief as
soon as I began taking Foley Kidney
Pills. My husband also received, much
(benefit "frcjm, them. He w,as so lame
he could not stoop over; now he feels
no pain."    Wheeler's Pharmacy.
Be Sure of Value
You know that * it's easier sometimes to
give an example than a definition. That's the
way we feel about the word "value."
It would take a lot of space to tell you
about the value you'll get at this store, but it
would only take a few minutes to show you
and convince you.
In the interest of national economy, it's
your duty to look for value in everything you
buy. Don't buy less of the things you need,
buy better things\und the less you'll need.
