OBSERVING MEMORIAL DAY

Who are the real Americans?
Memorial day gives an idea of the
proper answer.
Are they those who selfishly seize up
on May 30 as an opportunity to have a
holiday, with no thought or care of the
days significance, or are they those who
take the time to fulfill their obligations
to those who died for their country or
to the dead of their own immediate fam
lies, before giving the rest of the day
over to enjoyment?
The reader can make his own answer.
Ours is that those who fall in the lat
ter class are the real Americans, no mat
ter what ideas the former class may have
about it. The holiday seekers may think
they are Just as good Americans as any
one else, but good Americans accept
sacrifice cheerfully and they do not
dodge a sponsibility-they meet it.
Memorial day was set apart to enable
the nation to pay its respects to those
who gave their lives for the Union in the
Civil war. 1t has continued down through
the years, being accepted by veterans of
later wars and their families as the day
to show homage to all dead, and partic-
ularly for those who died in the service
of their country.
To use it entirely as a holiday is to ig-
more the days real meaning.
The holiday seekers may be placed
alongside those Americans who insult
and abuse the foreigner; who see good
only in the United States and nothing of
good in any other country; who must be
boisterous about their patriotism in pub
lie but have no real understanding of the
word; who rant and rave about the flag
yet are indelicate enough to applaud the
playing of the Star Spangled Banner
instead of meeting the sacredness Of the
national anthem with the same reverent
silence one accords the singing of a
hymn.
We will not argue that the proper OBJ
servance of Memorial day indisputably
stamps one as the proper kind of Am
erican, but we would rather take our
chances with those who do than with
those who don't, if we were seeking for
real patriotism.
1t is the sacrificing, sound-thinking
and level-headed kind who have made the
United States of America. If the ma
ton depended upon the light-headed
pleasure seekers we would still be col
onies of Great Britain. We may thank
God that there are still millions of men
and women willing to sacrifice and meet
their obligations as real Americans
should

OUR STUDENTS

1t is a pleasure once more to extend to
graduates of all FL Centro's educational
institutions, our sincere congratulations
on their success in advancing further in
their careers and to wish for them the
happiness which can come from a real
education.
However. real education does not come
solely from school books. If it did there
would be few really educated persons.
Unless character development accom-
panies book learning, there is no real ed
ucatlon.
Ell Centros educational institutions
stress character development in the light
of its true Importance.
By and large this city may we'll be
proud of the students whom it is educat-
ing There are a few exceptions as there
must be in any group of humans-young-
sters who for one reason or another are
called problem cases. In the main our
youngsters make the most of the oppor-
tunity that is given them. They are
studious, earnest, and keenly interested
in the particular duties life has thus far
placed upon them.
Those who have attended graduation
exercises in this city cannot help but
note and comment on these things. They
should feel greatly encouraged by them,

of citizens of this community.
Educational costs may seem heavy, but
seldom do the taxpayers grumble about
them, for it is an American character
istic willingly to provide the best in ed
ucation. There is no money better IN
vested than that which supports our
schools and the fine attitude of our
Youngsters is proof that we are reaplng
dividends upon the investment.
To those who will depart from local
institutions for higher educational cir
cles, we extend our best wishes for
continuation of the success they have
achieved here To those who will return
in the fall we say we hope you will con-
tinue to make US proud Of you.
