Flag’s
day
Memorial Day
honors veterans
By Justin Graeber, Clipper Editor
[email protected]

For Betty McNeil, watch-

ing the Memorial Day Parade
has been a tradition for years
and years. McNeil and her
husband, a former Duxbury
Police Chief, built their home
on Depot Street in 1954, and
used to sit on the front lawn
and watch the parade march
down the street to the First
Parish Church. McNeil’s love
for the parade is so strong,
however, that even after she
sold the home a few years ago,
the current owners save a seat
for her on Memorial Day.
PINT-SIZED PATRIOTS: Girl Scouts carry American flags down Depot Street during the Memorial Day Parade Monday morning. The annual
continued on page 17 parade featured Boy and Girl Scouts, young athletes, military veterans and police and firemen. For more photos see page 18.

The Alden House rug is a cooperative project of the Duxbury
Rug Hookers. This year the project was headed up by Laurie Sy-
bertz and the design of the hearth was drawn by Eloise Doyle.
Ann Gustavson, one of the Duxbury Rug Hookers, is an Al-
den descendant and it was her idea to use the Alden Barn as a
gathering place once a month for the rug hookers. In exchange,
the women hook one rug a year for the Alden Kindred to raffle
off at their annual meeting. The rugs are hooked of pure wool
cloth – often old clothes or blankets – which is dyed as needed
for colors in the rug, cut into strips and hooked into a linen foun-
dation.

Tough words for

financial leaders
W
By David Cutler
arren Buffet, the billionaire from Omaha, Nebras-
ka,, once said if you take the high road on Wall
Street you won’t run into much traffic.
That is a sentiment one
would suspect that Doug Fries-
en, the architect from Duxbury,
would share even though Buf-
fett’s exact words don’t show
up in the pages of his (Friesen’s)
new book, “The Age of Entitle-
ment.”
Being an architect, if not a
terribly busy one in our existing
economic climes, Mr. Friesen
does not proclaim himself to be
a financial wizard. But architect
or no, he can write with consid-
erable skill and in this, his first
book, he offers up an engaging
explanation of how we fell into a financial abyss and what we
must do to climb out.
We hear the financial terms –
Review subprime, derivatives, credit de-
fault swaps – bandied about all the
time these days, but most of us don’t really know what they
mean. Friesen explains them in clear, concise language. In fact
he scores well in schooling us on the basics of finance and does
particularly well in telling us what the Federal Reserve Bank is
and why we should worry about it: Too much power vested in
too few people who seem accountable to no one. “Shrouded in
mystery,” is how the author puts it.
Mr. Friesen has few kind words for Alan Greenspan, or
for government deregulators, the “Trickle Down” theory, Wall
Street leaders – most couldn’t run a lemonade stand – or the
big banks and the moves to bail them out while our own 401Ks
crash. “Too big to fail,” he suggests, “means too big to exist.”
And bankers, he warns, have a stranglehold on both politi-
cal parties and on all branches of government. And at the core
of our financial meltdown, he says, “was a massive collective
failure of morality.”
“The Age of Entitlement” also worries about the future – our
unfunded liabilities of Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid
(all crises waiting to happen), our behemoth national debt, our
ever increasing credit card debt and commercial retail debt, our
imbalance of trade, our crumbling infrastructure and the widen-
ing gap between the rest of us and those relatively few at the top
of the income pile.
Yet despite the subject matter, this isn’t a book of simple
doom and gloom. The problems and their solutions are serious
to be sure. But they are presented in an engaging, lucid way by
someone who knows how to turn a phrase. Doug Friesen writes
with clarity and style. His first effort is worth a read. Pick it up
at Westwinds or Amazon.com.

A monumental
cal entertainment for this
weekend’s Opening of the Bay at the
Duxbury Bay Maritime School.

Memorial Day
D
uxbury’s Memorial Day activities are always a
highlight of the summer. The parade and memorial
service at First Parish Church are the perfect
combination of celebration and solemnity. This town has a
great respect for those who have served their country in the
various branches of the Armed Services, and that respect was
on display Monday. The graveside services that bookmark the
parade were poignant as always –– the silent gesture of placing
a wreath on the veterans’ monument in Mayflower Cemetery
is the perfect way to close out the day. The guest speaker for
the memorial service at First Parish, Lt. Col. Robert Ali, was
inspiring in his patriotism and devotion to his country.
Amid the pomp of the parade, many revelers may have
