These spring months when eggs are

But great care must be exercised in
the selection and preservation. II
water-glass or sodium silicate Is used

Any container that will hold wateD

MEMORIAL PROCLAMATION.
(By the Governor.)

The observance Of Memorial Day, a
day dear TO the heart Of the patriot.
the day OF all days which most
abounds in hallowed memories and
associations, is distinctively an Amer
lean custom, and one that beautifully
reflects the spirit OF democracy. 1t Is
day which brings to the surface the
kindlier, nobler impulses OF the hu-
man heart, and bids us pause, even
in times OF war, TO honor the memory
of those who offered up their lives or
freedoms altar. II Is the day that
commentaries the great deeds and
heroic sacrifices or the brave men
who, more than half a century ago
sustained the cause of the Union.
These men deserve well of ourselves
and all future generations OF Ameri-
cans. They saved the nation from
disruption. They redeemed labor
from slavery. They converted into 9
concrete, living fact what before had
been held as an abstract principle,
namely, that all men are created free
and equal. not equal in power and
endowment. but equal in their right tc
life, liberty and the pursuit OF happi'
ness. The men who accomplished these
stupendus labors were true patriots;
and it is ours to honor the memory o.
the departed and pay homage to those
who still live.
Again, today, the life of the Republic
is threatened, this time from without.
We have been forced into war. We
face the peril which menaces all tho
free nations OF the earth. and we have
made common cause with them. To
gether We are fighting to keep the
world from being throttled by a ruth
less autocratic power The fate OF
democracy hangs in the balance. The
freedom of the world is at stake; and
as our fathers went out in siXty-one
to do battle for righteous cause, sc
our sons are going out to day TO dc
battle for cause that is no whit less
righteous. They are fighting to up
hold the rights OF humanity. They
are fighting TO save civilization from
destruction. Their valor and theil
patriotism need no eulogy. They are
worthy sons of worthy sires.
One young soldier writes to his
mother, 81 am going TO fight this war
as man, and I'll never come back
with a stain on the name l love. L

sacrifice, I'm going with my boots on

Orders Property Not BE Placed On
Sale for Delinquent Taxes.

Auditor General o. B. Fuller has
ruled on the delinquent tax sales OF
property in the name of soldiers and
sailors The act OF congress early
last month, designed TO protect the
property OF persons in the military
service is used by Mr.. Fuller as au-
thority to the county treasurers TO
mark such property as owned by sol
diers and sailors and not return 1t
to him.
Even IL all OF US be as careful as
can be-" said Mr.. Fuller, this law Is
going to result in a lot OF law suits.
Purchasers of property as delinquent
taxes may not be informed that their
title is clouded. The reason for this
Is that We may not know OF the cloud
ourselves. Many purchaser has no
means of knowing and the authorities
may offer such property for sale be-
fore they know 1t. My ruling is for
the county authorities to withhold all
such property that they know is own.
ed by sailors or soldiers from the
sales.
The law,however, only refers to
property used by the soldier or sailor
as a dwelling house for himself, or
for his business. II he should happen
to be real estate dealer or man
who speculates outside OF his home
and his business, 1t is not exempted.

II cannot fail TO win, although the
hour OF victory may be delayed by the
magnitude OF the task which confronts

to realize our responsibility, and, with
whole hearted devotion, TO do our
part.
Therefore, that we may pay a trib-
ute OF affection and esteem to the sur
vivors of the Civil War and OF the
Spanish American War. and do honor
to the memory not only OF the men
who gave up their lives in these wars
or the past, but OF the brave boys al
so who have fallen in the present con-
fiict. |, Albert +. Sleeper, governor Of
the state of Michigan, do hereby issue
this, my proclamation, and sincerely
urge the observance OF Thursday, May
thirtieth, nineteen hundred and
eighteen, as Memorial Day.
venture to express the hope that
the day will be kept in manner con-
sistent with the spirit OF the occasion.
II should be a day for the re-dedica-
tion of our strength and service, the
renewed conservation OF our every ef
fort and resource. to the support OF
our fighting forces.
And, pursuant to President Wilson,
proclamation, / earnestly request the
people of Michigan to observe this day
as a solemn festival. and to gather I'M
their accustomed places OF worship
and there to offer prayers for the vic
tory of the American armies, that q
just and lasting peace may be estab-
lished throughout the world
On that day flags should be display
ed at half-staff until noon. and then
hoisted to the top OF the staff.
