Rev. Slodn Spedks
To Kiwunidns Here

Memorial Day was observed at
the Kiwanis meeting Wednes-
day noon at the Masonic temple.
The speaker was the Rev.
George Sloan of Billings Con-
gregational church. c. c. Quinn,
local president, was I'M the
chair.
A feature of the meeting was
a cigar all around at the eX-
pense of club secretary John
Rankin in honor of Miss Sue
Karen Rankin, a new arrival in
Hardin.
It was reported that the XII
wants citizenship school which
meets every Friday night in the
community room of the court
house now has an enrolment
of II who are studying for their
second papers.
Considering the act of stand
ing by the mound that repre-
sentS a person who has left
the ranks of the living, Rev.
Sloan painted a rather discour-
aging picture of humanity when
he compared man to clay and
dust. To emphasize the frailty
of mankind, the speaker COM
pared his size with that of the
universe which has been meas
ured and found to be 40 mil
lion light years in diameter.
This, in miles, is 258 with 10
zeros after it,
Although astronomically, man
is insignificant, astronomically
speaking, man is the a%Strono-
mer, Rev. Sloan said. Engineer
ingly speaking, it was in one
mans brain that the Golden
Gate Bridge first took final
form. Periodically speaking, it
was in mans mind that life,
liberty, and the pursuit of hap
piness" was created. Materially
speaking, it is in a mothers
heart that is born sacrificial
love for children.
1T is true that man is but
clay" admitted Rev. Sloan.
But" he hurried to add, sit
is in that envelope of clay that
exist, mind, spirit, personality,
love, service, joy, duty, ideals
It is in mans heart that in
reply to duty's must" man re-
allies he must" and resolves
that he will"

Guided, our Memorial Day ought
to be a day of rededication .
