The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1916-05-29

Busy folks should pause long enough in
their activities to- morrow to pay a trib
ute to the soldiers and sailors who fought
in behalf of the nation so years and more
ago. 1t will not be a great tax on their
time to watch the parade of the veterans
and their escorts, nor to listen to the pa
triotic exercises which will be held in
honor of the former; and if they give the
short time needed for the service they
will have a sense of having done little
toward paying the tribute that is de-
served. The 1916 celebration ought to be
the best in long term of years.
