weeks and months ahead of us in
which we shall have to apply all
OF our thoughts and energies to

Tense. However. that task will
only be made more difficult by de.
preston OF mind and seriousness
Of thought, unrelieved by thoughts,
words and actions which are re.
lated to pleasure and happiness.
The best evidence of high mo
rale lies in the ability OF people
TO turn aside from the serious
things of life for a few moments
IN behalf of those things which are
expressive Of human goodness
Music, decorations and assemblies
of friends, all contribute to high
morale.
The merchants OF Ypsilanti
hope that, by offering this Christ

our situation a bit OF brightness
which in turn. will reflect itself
in our spirit and willingness TO
