OBSERVANCE OF THE DAY.

Memorial day is for an observance,
not a celebration. 1t is sacred to the
heroic dead. The distinction between
it and other American holidays is very
clear. Thanksgiving day, Christmas
and the Fourth of July are all days of
rejoicing. The first two have divine
character whose influence should be
more marked than it is upon the char
acter of their celebration, but the
Fourth of July is very properly set
apart as the date for the noisiest and
most enthusiastic demonstrations of
patriotism. New Years day has come
to have no great significance 1t is lit
tie more than "a day off, and the ma
ture of it's celebration is a matter of NO
moment.
But Memorial day, says the Chicago
News, stands apart from them oil. We
should not forget that it is primarily
a commemoration of death. The sor-
row that it evokes may be softened by
time and the patriotic observances it
suggests may divert our thoughts to
the glories of our country, but nothing
should be allowed to interfere with the
essential solemnity Of the festival.
This is the view that is taken by
those people who arc indignant that an
anniversary SO saered to them should
be made the occasion for a grand &C
cession of racing, gambling, cock fight
ing and similar aznusements.
