sIET Us REDEDICATE OURSELVES
TO THE NATIOE," URGES PRES
DENT WILSON.

President Wilson issued proclama-
ton on Memorial day, May Both,
calling upon the people of the United
States to celebrate Flag day, June IA,
with patriotic exercises, giving ex-
preston to "our thoughtful love OF
America" The president declared
that the people should rededicate
themselves "for an America which no
man can corrupt, no influence draw
away from it's ideals, no force divide
against ITSELF"
The proclamation follows:
"My fellow countrymen: Many cir
cumstances have recently conspired
to turn our thoughts to a critical
examination of the condition of our
national life of the influences which
have seemed to threaten TO divide US
in interest and sympathy, OF forces
within and forces without that
seemed likely to draw US away from
the happy traditions OF united .pur-
pose and action of which we have
been SO proud.
"It has, therefore seemed to me
fitting that / should call your atten-
ton to the approach of the annivers-
ary of the day upon which the flag
of the United States was adopted by
The congress as the emblem of the
union and to suggest to you that 1t
should, this year and in the years to
come, be given special significance as
a day of renewal and reminder, day
upon which we should direct our
minds with a special desire of renewal
to thoughts of the ideals and prin-
ciples Of which we have sought to
make our great government the en-
bodiment.
81 therefore suggest and request
that throughout the nation, and, II
possible, in every community the
fourteenth day of June be observed as
flag day with special patriotic exer-
cises, at which means shall be taken
to give significant expression to our
thoughtful love of America, our CON-
prehension of the great mission OF
liberty and Justice to which we have
devoted ourselves as people, our
pride in the history and our enthus-
iasm for the political program of the
nation, our determination to make it
greater and purer with each genera
tion and our resolution to demon
strate to all the world its vital union
in sentiment and purpose, accepting
only those as true compatriOtS who
feel as we do the compulsion of this
supreme allegiance.
LET us on that day rededicate
ourselves to the nation, 'one and in
separable,' from which every thought
that is not worthy of our fathers
first vows of independence, liberty
and right shall be excluded and il
which we shall stand with uniteC
hearts for an America which no mar
can corrupt, no influence draw ava!
from its ideals, no force divide agains
itself, a nation signally distinguished
among all the nationals of mankind
for its clear, individual conception
alike of its duties and its privileges
its obligations. and its rights"

Spends Vacation
with Delta Friends

Mr.. Arthur Peterson, formerly of
Ash mesa. but now of Long Beach,
California, has just finished a two
weeks vacation with Delta friends
and relatives, and returns to his work
at Long Beach, that of clerk for the
city Fire department. Nearly four
years ago Arthur went to Long Beach,
seeking an improvement in health, and
after a two months stay took the
city civil service examination for the
fire department clerkship There
were forty-three contestants for that
position and Arthur was the success
full candidate, attaining a general av.
erage of ninety-three per cent. He
gives full credit for his success as a
candidate and for his high per cent
average on that examination, to the
training he received in Delta Business
college. His salary is now a lucra-
tive one and should make other young
men around here sit up and take no
tice on the immediate value of "pre-
paredness."

Loss of Lambs
by Overfeedin8

The lamb feeding season is at hand
and the usual losses of lambs in the
feed lots are to be expected. Mil
lions of lambs have been seen in the
feed lots in the past ten years. the
conditions of feeding and handling
have been studied and hundreds of
autopsies have been made on lambs
that have died with the usual symp-
toms.
While no scientific investigation
has been made. field observations have
generally pointed to the one proposi-
tion of over-feeding. Lambs that
milk and native grasses can not be
changed suddenly to alfalfa hay, mo-
lasses and concentrates without caus-
ing more or less disturbance of di-
gestion. Nature never intended sheep
to eat molasses. and while they can
appropriate limited amount, they
will throw off the excess through the
bowels and kidneys. The irritation
to the kidneys results in inflammation
and in many cases fattye degenera.
ton. The liver is found inflamed and
swollen and the stomach and intes-
tinal tract are seriously involved.
This heavy loss in the feed lots re-
suits from trying to commercialize the
lambs and get the greatest possible
gains in the least possible time, and
failing to take into consideration the
fact that lamb is not machine.
but very sensitive animal that is
easily killed by careless treatment
When lambs develop diarrhoea, II
is an indication that the feeding oper-
ations are at fault. A change of feed
is dangerous and such change must
be made gradually and animals given
time to adapt themselves to the new
conditions before crowding the feed
with the hopes of making gains.
Change of feed or overlooking is
dangerous to all of our domestic ami
mails. Do not try to fire the engine
too quickly-there is danger of burn.

ty to thirty minutes and he was dead
when found under the sled.
1t was happy party of six that

task the slide ran, catching Sibbach
