ing a son who is a surveyor on Bread

There are times when saving

tated that when the memory OF
the dead was concerned, finances
should not be considered. Con
gress is now trying to save
money by curtailing the cere-
mony at the burial of the I'M
known soldier at Arlington on
Armistice day. Secy. Weeks ask
ed for $125,000 for the ceremony
and the purchase and erection of
a suitable monument. Congress
grants $4,000. Is that the way
Congress measures the sacrifice

very much. 1t is said that he
will go through the ordeal of
lavish entertainment better than
some of our Nations guests be-
cause he is habitually abstemious,
eating and drinking sparingly. A
habit is hard to break so he may
get by, if he can stand the travel

desire to visit every state in the
Union, and that is a large order.
Emperor Charles and Queen
