And The Groom
Will Wear

It's seldom one reads what a
groom is going to wear at his we'd
ding, but the East Cleveland Com
munity Picnic Committee is proud
Of the smart outfit their groom
will wear when he says II do" at
Euclid Beach Park that day. The
groom-to-be will be attired in a
smart suit, the gift of Joe Dia-
nlond, popular mems merchant in
the Euclid Superior shopping
center. Mr.. Diamond is also supply
ing the shirt and the tie for this
wedding, the first to be held not
only by an East Cleveland Picnic,
but at Euclid Beach Park as we'll.
Just a word about tickets. A
supply of tickets is being carried
in the Mercury which Don Baum
gardner is driving around town,
advertising the picnic. Any mer-
chant suddenly finding himself out
of either the special automobile or
the regular ticket strips, can Sc
cure the pasteboards from Don.
And are those tickets going!
Chairman Don Fisher of the Ticket
Committee reports they are being
kept busy distributing the tickets
as merchants call in for them. Each
committeeman has an assigned
territory which means prompt serv-
ice and no waiting by customers.
And while tickets are the SUBJ
ject, please remember, there will
be two ticket barrels, instead of
one, this year at the Log Cabin.
Be sure and get your tickets in the
right barrel. Each one will be
clearly marked to indicate if it is
container for automobile award or
usual strip coupons.

ing his own hands" 'He who

| think I shall heed that good
advice. The Board of Trustees of
the Central Nerband in last Sa-
turday's meeting reviewed that
matter of the "Articles' (quite
diSgustedly) and agrees fully
with grandiathers proverbs.
Your officers were elected to
serve the organization. Natural
ly, they have different characters
and different opinions. But they
can and do work together. They
all want the Nerband to progress.
They must realize that brother
hood is never built up by encour-
aging hatreds. Progress grows
best in the soil of peace. And
peace comes only when Pride and
Arrogance is broken. and all Sci.
fish Ambition is destroyed.
And now YOU Younger mem

wound will heal. A little scar NAV
remain. But the body is still heal

The Central Nerband will go
on, perhaps even "pepped-up' by
the shoutings smeared over the
pages of our dear Nolksblatt. You
understand, to be "erudgev and
touchy" is sign of senilitv.
Sooner OF later YOU representa-
tives OF the Younger generation
will have to take over. You have
the ability and the vision to carry
your Organization into a more
glorious future. Those of YOU who
served in the Army know:
The road is sometimes dusty
and muddy,
Winds will blow, and dogs will
bark,
But the Regiment marches on"
So will our dear Central Yer
