Big Events in the Lives of Little Men D M Ms All Salina Honors Acli?e With bowed heads and aching hearts and in sad reverence for the late fallen chief, Warren G. Harding, Salina citizens paid the highest respect during the few minutes designated by the governor of the commonwealth For ten last Friday. and minutes during the tolling of the bell all business was suspended, traveling vehicles came to a standstill and silence reigned completely within the city. With the starting of the ringing of the bell which was to mark the time for prayer and silent reverence for the nations leader, citizens stood at attention with bared heads and with the flags floating half mast from the city hall and other buildings throughout Salina the scene was most impressive. The memorial services which had first been planned to be carried out last Sunday, were changed and during the afternoon on the day President Harding was buried, sorrowing citizens gathered at Social hall to solemnly commemorate the said event At 2 oclock Social hall was well filled and the services were fittingly arranged for the occasion. Patriotic music and songs that were familiar and favorites of the late president were rendered. S. M. Jorgensen, taking the political side of the life of President Harding, eulogized the high character of the man who gave his life. He reviewed the life of President Harding. Starting when yet a boy and a printer, Mr. Jorgensen related much of the life of the president up to the time of his death. Mr. Anderson, taking for his theme the ehirstian side of the presidents life, paid a high tribute saying that the life of the president should be an example for all. Dr. C. E. West was also scheduled to make remarks, but owing to an emergency call he was compelled to be absent from the meeting. we completed the Wednesday gravel loading station in the canyon north of Marysvale and everything is now in readiness to start hauling gravel for the hard surface pavement that we are to lay. On account of some difficulties encountered at the point where we are to get the gravel, matters have been delayed a few days, but with this now overcome there should be no reason why real work on the highway should not go along without any delays, said Chas. E.

The ovens cost approximately $50 and are proving great pleasure to the travelers who have stopped over in Salina. In addition to the ovens put in by the Literary club members, the Royal Neighobrs have contributed substantially to the camp. A large table, some nine feet long and about four feet wide, and having comfortable seats attached, is the donation by the Royal Neighobrs. Some complaints have been offered both by travelers and by those supporting the camping grounds. Visitors, more especially the lady travelers, have entered complaints about the toilet facilities. It is reported that the sanitary conditions are not the best and could be wonderfully improved by a little attention on the part of the citizens of Salina. On the other hand there are many classed as camp hogs who avail themselves of the accomodations given by the city, who utterly abuse the privileges. Many records have been kept and it is found that campers will not only leave litter, tin cans and other unsightly junk behind, but abuse many of the privileges extended by the city . Signs have been posted and as a rule they are obeyed, but some classed as tramps, disregard the signs. The Ladies Literary Sa-lin- Sa-lin- a, E.
