Memorial DAY,

May ~ is Il day set apart Tor decorating
the graves and observing ceremonies that
keep green in our minds the heroic deeds
of the old soldiers. who so nObly came
forward and sacriiiscd life and limb. that
the honor Of the nation might be sus
taued. Ii is Il beautiful custom and one
that will live long after the last partici-
pant in the late civil war has been mus
tered to his linalr call.
The dav was observed by almost every
citizen in this locality Thursday in Il man
ner that was lifting and appropriate in
the extreme. The services were in charge
of Sully Post No. 10, q. A. r., and nothing
was lacking in the way of arrangements
that would contribute to its success.
The post met at 10 o'clock in the morn
ing ut the court house. and with members
of the relief corps and sons of veterans and
a large delegation of citizens. proceeded TO
Riverside cemetery, where they gave
homage to departed loved ores and
friends. In a short time every grave was
clothed in flowers and tlags-the flowers
representing love and the flags patriotism.
A parade in the afternoon had been ar
ranged for, but was dispensed with on
account of the rain The weather did
not prevent the people from witnessing
however, and the spacious representative
hall was filled to overlooking.
The exercises began by selection by
the Pierre City band. followed by the
national song, in which everybody took
part, and closed with the bcnediction by
Rev. WA. Lyman. hcprogram through
out was well rendered and proved very
enjoyable to everyone in attendance.
The principal feature was the Memorial
day address by Hon. a. Ct. Kcllam, and
being an old soldier himself, and in full
sympathy with the occasion. lie threw
his heart and soul into the effort.

ways presenting something goodwhcncver

tric high, but was in no wise prepared
for the excellence and wclI-rcndcrcd per-
Torrance which was presented. 1t would
have done credit to professionals.
Miss Alice Lemon. as Sierra, simply
caplivatcd the audience by her realistic
and unaffected acting. Pierre has many
excellent impcrSonators. but Miss l4cnoX

Ralph III. Williams assumed the leading
role of the opposite sex. aud fully sus-
tanned the cnviablc reputation he has
gained as Il clever and accomplished
actor
The balance of the cast was all that
could be desired, and the play being re-
plrlc with humorous incidents and sharp
sayings. it was more than appreciated by
the audience

This week for the first time Pierre is
engaged in entertaining the old soldiers
of the state in annual cncampmcnt.
The FREE Press hopes the welcome
is complete, and that no veteran will go
away with any other feeling than that
all in the power OF our people has been
done to make his brief stay here pleasant
and profitable There is no class of
men who are more entitled tn a hearty
reception than those who made up the
Grand Army of the Republic. BY their
deeds they have won the umslintcd
praise and gratitude OF the people, WHO
are ever willing and ready TO accord TO
them the best gifts of hospitality.
The ranks of the old soldiers are
rapidly thinning, and il will not be
many years before these annual gather
ing will be no more, but while they las,
they should be more and more occasions
where the people should show by their
actions that they remember andapprec

BY the way, what sound is more cheer
full and musical to South Dakotan than
legions of frogs in happy chorus dwelling
in the ponds and lake beds scattered
about everywhere Just now. The FREE

world, or the greatest prima donna that
ever stood before the public. When the
frogs croak in this state all others cease
the noise. 1t means that we arc on the
straight road to success this year.
