As Memorial Day approaches and

the nation are preparing to honor
their hero dead one wonders just
how many can recall who first de
signated May 30 as .Memorial Day.
It was Gen. John A. Logan as com
mander in chief of the Grand Army
of the Republic, who on May 5,
1868, issued the famous order No.
11 designating May 30 of each year
a- Memorial Day. In Washington in

trian statue with Gen. Logan in the
saddle. T’ e work of Franklin Sim

Strange how most people are con
tent to live ina 1900 model house yet
insist that their uutomobile shall be
a 1936 model. The average home
which supports a car of a late model
not only does not have late model
conveniences and necessities but the
building itself is often of a type in
vogue twenty-five, thirty, and even
fifty years ago. A home may be
modern and beautiful inside and very
unlovely outside. The automobile
while bringing one measure of pleas
ure to the race has robbed it of many
other pleasures. Many of which are
more worth while and enduring and
possibly more satisfying. Two factors
enter into this. The motor car manu
facturers have succeeded in making
their cars more comfortabl e and
more beautiful and more durable at
less cost. On the other hand building
costs are high and our tax system
that immediately penalizes a home
owner for presuming to improve or
beautify his home are doubtless de
terrents that cause a home owner to
hesitate and make the old out of date
home do.
