Memorial Day The onward sweep of time again brings us to that solemn day on which we recall the memory of the soldier dead of '61-'65 and pay tribute to the thinning ranks of the Boys in Blue Memorial Day, v Year by year this day becomes more sacred in the national consciousness and more hallowed in the associations that cling to it. If once the veterans of that sanguinary war marched in large numbers and with steady tread in countless cities and hamlets, today it is only a remnant of that mighty host which assembles in thousands of places to pay tribute to its departed comrades. Time has not overlooked that great army or treated tenderly its members. Spared by shot and shell in the '60s, they are annually joining the Invisible Grand Army in increasingly large numbers. Only a few years more and all that will be left of the Grand Army of the Republic will be a memory. But what a memory! How hallowed its name, how sacred its history! How tenderly its glorious achievements for the cause of human rights will be preserved in the hearts of a thankful republic! And how gladly the children of a
later generation will recount its march to victory ! With what a deep measure of patriotic pride cannot Wayne county look back upon its part in that great struggle! From this community came
Today's Talk By George Matthew Adams ' THINGS THAT COME BACK jLots of things are thrown away but fer things are wasted. Sometimes for years the thing thrown away may lie idle and asleep, tut at some moment when you least rxiVect. it will spring up and begin to live its life again. Over and over again the words and leacfliings of a professor I had in college come back to me. We used to call him "Daddy" Ward, because he was the daddy of us all. He taught mathematics, but there never was a studlpnt who didn't go from his classes bigg pr in character than in the science he expounded with figures and diagrams. Whlnt you give out from your heart freelyi always comes back to someone, somesrhere and to you! Thfjre is a story of "Androcles and the Lion," which tells how Androcles, a Roitnan slave, took refuge from his brutal master in a cave. There a lion came flepon him a lion tamed for the moment by th agony of an injured paw. Androcles took care of the lion, cured its paw and was kind to it. Later, "hen the slave was captured and thriwh into the arena to be devoured hly lions, n generous fate would have it taiat the lion in the arena was the lion )f the cave. So instead of dashing vyiidly to devour his prey, the lion recognized him and began to lick his hands remembering how kind Androcles hrvi been to him in the past. And so th4 slave was saved. Kindness comes back. I have iai mind a boy who worked long and hsird for little money. I remember his) being ridiculed for working so long: and so hard for so little. Even the by told me that what he did was largely uninteresting, but that he expectetl the knowledge would some day Inn needed. Todayin his big position in the world, he is getting both in monpy and in satisfaction, the reward of thpse early days. The rewartj for hard work or kindness comes lU-k to us in the form of happy days rfid worth while success. Live your dayt in generous deeds and wholesome e:3ieriences, and they will ccme back to you over and over again in hannv' mem cries.

Indiana's great
above all war governors of the republic Oliver Pt Morton. From this county came hundreds of boys in answer to Abraham Lincoln's call to arms. Some made the supreme sacrifice. Some came back to prove in civilian life their abiding
love for the republic. Many of the veterans of i that war are no longer with us. To them wej pay the merited homage. To the comrades who!
are still with us
love. And as the thinning ranks of the Civil War veterans pass by, who of us does not think of those younger crusaders for the cause of righteousness and democracy who are entombed in
the white - crossed lanes of the American cemeteries in Romagne, Belleau and Suresnes? More than 127,000 SQldiers, sailors and marines died as a result of America's participation in the struggle between democracy and autocracy. It is the first Memorial Day since our boys returned home. Last May thousands of our boys were still in France, where 75,000 of their comrades were sleeping on fields of honor. On this Memorial Day the thoughts of countless veterans of that war will wing their way across the sea to the white-crossed acres of France, and from thousands of homes will rise the prayers of mothers like sacrificial incense to the Great White Throne. No Memorial Day exercise will be complete without its tribute to the American boys sons and grandsons of the Boys in Blue who died overseas, in the cantonments at home, or later, as a result of wounds and exposure incurred in the service of the republic. It is fit and proper that the nation once a year at least turn from its accustomed tasks to pay reverential tribute to its fighters. No war in which America participated has been debased by the low purpose of conquest or territorial
aggrandizement. Our boys have fought for principle. The veterans of the Civil War, the Spanish-American war and the World war fought for glorious purposes liberty and jus-

The voters of Liberty and of Center township will be given an opportunity on June 22 to show their inclinations regarding the consolidation of Liberty and Center township high schools, when a special school election will be held. The plan, which has been suggested as the possible remedy for the present unsettled condition of the Liberty high school, is to consolidate the two high schools. A modern building is proposed on a tract of land just at the corporation limits. This would make Liberty high school a non-commissioned institution. At this time the outcome of the election is very doubtful, as the sentiment seems to be evenly divided. Alumni Elects Officers Following the conclusion of a program arranged for the entertainment of the 176 members of the Liberty high school alumni association, given Wednesday evening in the coliseum, a business meeting was held. The president, Mrs. W. K. Kerr, appointed a nominating committee composed of Mrs. C. W. Stivers, Miss Mary Del Williams and Harold j Hughes, who chose the following ! executive committee for 1920-1921: i President, Clyde Mullin; first-vice-! president, Mrs. Ella Miller; second I vice-president, Maurice Lafuze; third vice-president, Esther Hamilton; sec retary, Francis Graham; treasurer, Everett Higgins. Population Decreases The director of census at Washington, OT C, announced the population of Liberty as 1,292, which is a decrease of 4S since the last enumeration.

It is anr economic term, which in plain terms means that if you have only a few dollars they are of more importance to you that the same number would be to a man who owned a million. Practically applied it means, that if you had only $100 in a savings banks, and you were asked to invest them in a speculative venture because a man owning a million dollars intended to invest" $100 in the enterprise, your $100 would be of greater value to you than the $100 of the millionaire; for1, if he lost the $100 In the venture he would still have $999,900. while you would be completely wiped out.

XXX A POLITICAL REVOLUTION

JULIA GARDINER TYLER
AS John Tyler stepped into the White House, its door closed against the party which had elected him only five months before. Death had turned out the Whigs after 30 days of power and caused a political revolution. In vain the Harrison Cabinet, which was largely under the influence of Clay, proposed that Tyler should describe himself only as Vice President and acting President. He rightly in sisted that he was full President without qualification. Clay looked upon this accidental President as only a regent for the Harrison Administration and for the Whig party. Early in the extra session of Congress, that impression of the Senator from Kentucky was sharply corrected by a Presidential veto of one of his own bills a banking bill. The Whigs were wild with rage; the Democrats filled with glee. The Democratic senators hastened in a body to the White House, where they were patting Tyler on the back while a Whig mob outside in the yard was making a vociferous, but futile protest. When the next veto came in Clay himself called the Cabinet together and the members, with one exception, agreed to resign. The exception was none other than that of the Secretary of State, Daniel Webster. "Where am I to go?" the god-like Daniel thundered in his bewilderment. Some told him to go to one place, some to another. He held on for two years, until he had concluded the negotiation of the Ashburton Treaty, which fixed the disputed boundary between Maine and Canada, hnd then he resigned. Upon Webster's retirement, Tyler Installed in the State Department his Ithus completed the overturn. The J Cabinet was now out and out Demo ' cratic and of the pro-slavery brand. Although the President only stood true to the principles that he was well known to entertain at the time of his nomination and election, great was the j outcry. Nothing like it has assailed f.ny other President except Andrew j Johnson . The name of Tyler became ia hissing and a byword in the mouth I of every Whig in the land, and old somen blamed him even for their lheumatic twinger, which they called "Tyler's grip." A Southern States rights oligarchy was enthroned In power in the first of a series of pro-slavery administrations. Secretary Calhoun proclaimed the ambitious policy of guaranteeing OTVES CRKDIT THROUGH LAND Backache, lame and stiff muscles and rheumatic pains are often symptoms of deransred kidneys. "I had weak bladder, bad kidneys and liver," writes Willie Carter, Luxar, Pa. "I could not "sleep well and my back pained me awful. I had a dizzy feeling in tho morning-.

Texas had seceded from Mexico, which had abolished slavery, and its American settlers, who were facing the choice of slave labor or free labor, were anxious to be admitted to the Union.

His entry into the j place gave the slave Interests the needed villian for the play, and the cry went up that he must annex Texas to keep the British from grabbing it. Nevertheless the Senate rejected overwhelmingly the treaty of annexa tion. Thereupon Tyler proposed to beat the devil around the stump, and Texas was annexed the last night of the Administration by a simple joint resolution, rushed through the two houses of Congress. The shadows of this Presidency were deepened by a tragic occurrence and ' then lightened by a domestic romance that flower from the event. The President's wife, Letitia Christian Tyler, was an invalid and died in the next year after he had entered the White House. One day in 1844. as he was taking a party of friends down to Potomac on the U. S. S. Princeton, the explosion of one of her big guns killed two members of his Cabinet and three other guests. Among the latter was David Gardiner, the lord of Gardiners Island, New York, whose body was carried to the White House, followed by his two daughters. While the widower President was consoling the daughters, he renewed his love making with Julia. She had teen deaf to his proposals before, but she listened now and yielded. For the suitor was qualified by his 54 years to' take the vacant place of father to an 1 orphaned girl of 24. John Quincy Adams, In his diary, revolted at the "indecency" of this enactment of "the old fable of January and May." The Whigs snickered at the nuptials, which were celebrated in New York in the still standing Church of the Ascension on lower Fifth Avenue, close by the town house of the bride in Lafayette Place. Despite disparity of years and partisan ill-wishes, the couple lived happily ever after, and one of their children is at this writing president of old William and Mary college. The President deluded himself to the last with hopes of Democratic support of his election for a second term. The Democrats tossed him aside like a worn-out tool. In his retirement, he was not abov serving as a road overseer. He did not appear in National politics until after 16 years, when he acted as chairman of the abortive peace conference at Washington, on the eve of Lincoln's inauguration. One of those infatuated political leaders who had sown the wind. John Tyler could not Btop tho whirlwind of civil war. As a member of the Confederate Congress, and in rebellion against the Union, over which he had presided, died this Tenth President of the Unitnd States.
