No matter how sad a memory is at the
first, it almost always becomes pleasant by
ttrne How much more when the honor Of
the dead Is the pride Of US all. So we every
year grow prouder of our dead soldiers; and
at each anniversary the puolic's claim to
share in the pride becomes more pronounced.
That which was family pride is fast becOu-
