Shall Memorial Day be changed
from May 3Oth. to the last Sunday in
Mayy That question is agitating
Grand Army circles just now. Many
thoughtful veterans recognize and de-
pore the fact that there is growing
tendency to improperly observe the
day-to devote it to bicycle runs,
baseball, and other kindred pleas.
ures-in which its patriotic signifl-
canoe is.entirely lost sight of. They
feel that IL the day came on Sun
day there would be chance Of it's
being more properly observed. and
that a general disposition would be
manifested to make it in very deed
and truth grateful memorial of the
men who laid down their lives that
the nation might live.
