A MEMORIAL DAY sUGGEsrIoy.

NJ. Rose Jansen, Chairman of the Council of
the l.. II. W.. Quincy, H., would like TO hear
from members of the w. concerning the
following. proposed by Estelle Edgecombe,
member Of the Council:
Question: Would it not be well for the L. Fl. W.
TO make some arrangements for participation
in Memorial Day observances? Rose saws: :" |
think it would be appropriate for members to
ally themselves with the patriotic Orders in
their own localities, but it seems to mo we
might do the most good in the Southern States,
where many of our brave soldiers lie buried in
unknown graves.
=" How TO reach them is the question. If
there were many Harrison Gordons it would be
an easy matter. since VIC could send flags to
them with which to decorate the graves. Let
US have suggestions from all upon the subject"
