Labor Day

Labor Day-Unoffical end to summer
This is a celebration of value and dignity of work, and
its role in the American way of life.
``````
Labor day differs in every essential way from other holidays
of the year in any country. All other holidays are in a more or less
degree connected with conflicts and battles of man's prowess over man
of strife and disscord for greed and power, of glories achieved by one nation
over another. Labor day is devoted to no man, living or dead, to no sect,
race or nation.
~~~
Traditionally, Labor Day is celebrated by most Americans as the symbolic
end of summer.
We live where we have summer all year so we enjoy our freedom
so much more.
There is no planned celebrations in the Village but I know we
all will be enjoying this wonderful holiday.
~~~
Once again since 1966 the annual telethon of the Muscular Dystrophy
Association will be held this week-end with host, Jerry Lewis. We will
beable to watch with interest along with other activities.
If you plan out door fun, besure to watch the weather as we are
still in our rainy spell.
Enjoy your holiday!
