be up against. Early last Saturday
morning the boys began bringing in
cans and received a free ticket 10

Well, the cans kept coming from
all directions and by o'clock
Monday afternoon there was pile
of them 80 feet long, 6 feet wide and
4 feet high, being over 10000 cans
in the pile.
Mr.. Jenkins gave out 961 free tick
cts and the tickets were given out on
a basis of a ticket for each o cans
delivered. 1t was not money maker
for the Rex, but it was big day for

MEMORIAL DAY
Emphasizes Widening Margin Be
tween Living and Dead-ROCk-
ford to Pay Tribute.

H C. Morrison, Adjt,, in Rockford
Press
The 3Oth of May, 1916, will be the
4Sth anniversary of our beautiful
memorial day. This day with its ten
der memories has been growing more
pathetic as the years 90 by. A few
years ago, a hundred old comrades
with bodies erect and steps firm,
marched to the cemeteries and dec
GRATED the graves of ten or fifteen Of
their fallen comrades. Now the con-
dition is sadly different.
Now ten or fifteen battle scared
veterans straggle to the cemeteries
and lay their loving tributes on a
hundred silent resting places of COM
rades gone before Soon it will be
the last comrades silent tribute.
The coming 3Oth of May will mark
with more than telling emphasis the
widening margin between the living
and the dead. Let there be no abate-
ment of our devotion to the memory
of our comrades who have heard the
call of the Master and gone to join
the broken rank on the other side.
Let us make our services more ten
der and devotional than before. Let
our loyalty be a lasting tribute to
the Grand Army of the Republic. As
fitting prelude, let US not forget
the duties we owe Memorial Sun
day. Each soldier of the Post should
arrange for divine services on the
Sunday preceding Memorial Day. BY
these services we show our faith and
trust in Cod; our love of country and
flag; and the sacred reverence in
which we hold the memory of our
departed comrades.
According to custom in Rockford,
Decoration Day will be observed by a
march to the cemeteries where the
graves will be appropriately decor
ated and the following will be a pro-
gram fitting to the memorable occa-
sion. The program arranged is as
follows:
The parade will depart from the G.
A. r. Hall at l p. m. sharp. The or
der of parade will be as follows:
First the Red Mems Band; soldiers
of the G. A. R.; Wome S Relief
Corps; Methodist Sunday School. The
various fraternal orders will form
and fall in line at the public square.
The Presbyterian and United Breth-
ern Sunday schools in order, will
join the parade at their respective
churches. The Friends Sunday
school will meet the procession at
Dull's corner, and all together will
proceed to Riverside cemetery, where
the usual appropriate services will
be conducted by the Post.

ORIGIN OF FAMILIAR SAYINGS

! ORIGIN OF FAMILIAR SAN1NGS
Kicking the bucket is an irrevelant
way of expressing ones death. The
! expression originated one time when
man named BallOver tried to commit
suicide by hanging himself from a
beam. He stood on a high bucket
which he kicked away from him
when he had adjusted the rope. A
neighbor rescued him and in his dis
appointment he said: What's the
matter? l thought l kicked the
| bucket"
The origin of 90. K" is ascribed to
President Andrew Jackson, who was
noted for his bad spelling He indor-
sed his papers O. K, thinking these
were the proper initials for "all cor
rect"
In that's the ticket" ticket is cor
rupted from the French word et1-
quette, meaning that which is good
form, or right.
He's a brick" a complimentary
expression, but few know why. When
Lycurgus was king of Sparta, over
two thousand years ago, an eastern
ambassador visited him and was as
tOnished to find no walls about the
city. When he questioned Lycurgus
about this, the latter took him out
in a plain whore the Spartan army
stood III order of battle. There,
said Lycurgus, "are the walls of
Sparta, and every man is a brick"
The ceiling of the old Drury Lane
theatre, of London, was painted to
represent Olmpus, with gods, sitting
the clounds. The uper gal
lery came so close to the roof that
the people who sat there were spok-
en- of as sitting among the gods.
Later the occupants of the gallery
were called gallery gods"

WATER BEING PAID FOR
AT HIGH GRAIN PRICES
Standardization Experts Urge Sys-
tenn of Trading on a Dry y
Matter Basis.

Assertion that water is being paid
for at grain prices, and that only the
weight of dry matter in grain and
flour should be considered in making
sales and purchases, is made by grain
Standardization experts Of the Depart
ment of Agriculture.
Such a method is fair for producer,
dealer and consumer alike, the experts
declare. The percentages of moisture
in different lots of grain and seeds and
their products are always appreciable
and sometimes very high. The pur-
chaser who merely buys such products
by weight or volume. therefore. with
out consideration of moisture content,
is often paying a grain price for con-
siderable quantities of ordinary water.
The advantages in trading on a dry
matter basis are not confined to the
dealer but are shared by the producer.
the experts say. Because grains as
they come from the farm often contain
such large percentages of moisture
that they are in danger of fermenting
or molding, dealers take a risk in
handling them, the experts point out
For this reason the prices paid to
farmers are usually placed low enough
to compensate for probable loss or for
the cost of artificial drying. The aver
age price struck is usually lower than
the farmer with low moisture content
grain would receive on a dry matter
basis. and. therefore. penalties good
farming methods. The general adop-
partment specialists say. would, on the
other hand. place a premium on better
farm practices, resulting in the pro-
duction of dryer grains.
