MEMORIAL DAY PROCLAMATION

On Saturday of this week we will again COM
memorate the day which is observed throughout
the whole United States, Memorial Day, which day
Is also known as Decoration Day.
Let us stop and consider what this day really
means 1t should not mean merely another Ma
tional Holiday but should be a time when we re-
dedicate ourselves to the causes for which those
gallant soldiers whom memorabilia on that dav
gave their lives that this Nation might live. If we
but realize the supreme sacrifice which our fore
fathers made in order that might have and en-
JOY the peace which is ours, we would do more
than merely set aside day year to devote TO
their memory. We should devote ourselves everv
day to the causes for which they fought and do
everything in power to preserve the ideals of
Americanism.
Therefore, as Mayor of the City of Hamtramck
do hereby proclaim Saturday. May 30, 1886 as
Memorial Day and request all citizens of this Civ
to lay aside their duties and devote themselves TO
the proper observance of that duty.
Given under my hand and seal at Hamtramck
Michigan this 26th day of May, A. D. 1886.

SATURDAY

I have often recalled how hard,
long and dreamlessly I slept that
night. Not much more than a
stones throw from my house, a
horrible tragedy had enacted it
self. But my psychology, untouched
by the horror in the atmosphere,
stayed static. A rest, as thick. as
soft, as soundless as vast white
cloud, enveloped me.
I walked about noon. ! lay for a
moment struggling with that cloud
of sleep, half trying to pull out of
it. Presently I heard Sylvia's voice,
ooh / do wish Aunt Mary'd get
upl" and / bounced wide awake.
Sylvia" / called, "come in here,
dear!"
Sylvia, very slim in her little
blue Bingham dress, her blue
bowed pig-tails Swapping upwards
at the end, perched herself on my
bed, and contemplated me in her
most friendly manner. Of course
she was carrying Dorinda Belle.
"Have you had your breakfast,
Sylvan" l asked sleepily.
"Yes, Aunt Mary"
ibid you sleep well?"

Walter over? They had seemed to
be passionately in love. They had
seemed to be perfectly matched.
And yet, suddenly-and apparently
for no reason-she had broken with
him, and Walter had Immediately
left town. A few months later she
announced her engagement to Ace
Blake. Ace Blake who was my
contemporary, who was, in age,
more than twice her twenty-five
years! Ace Blake who had start
ed, before she was born, flirting
with all the pretty women in the
county and who had never, except
for his absence during the World
war, ceased to fiirt with them. Wal
ter had never entered Satuit since
his departure a year before. l
had not known that he had re-
turned.
There was one more notable en-
trance before the unmasking; this
time pair-man and woman. They
wore costumes of the Revolution
airy period; the woman in a full
skirted gown of the palest yellow
satin, trimmed with lace; a wig
of high-piled yellow hair, from
which fell onto her neck two long
curls. The man wore lilac satin.
Being something of a connoisseur
both of old lace and old paste, I
noticed the fineness of the Chantilly
ruffles which trimmed her gown

From ancient times these aromatic
seeds containing a pungent oil
have been used for fiavoring, as a
condiment, and for medicinal pur-
