'Tis thirty-three years since the rifle

dead comrades in the land they loved
so we'll"
Again we are approaching Memorial
Day, again, with fragrant flowers,
sweet music and patriotic eloquence,
we shall stand by the side Of the graves
Of our COT GRADES and pay to them the
tribute of our hearts aifcction-of our
deeds-and over the little green mounds,
which arc now their bivouacs, renew
our devotion to their memories and to
the cause for which they battled.
Loving hands shall place the ever

and sailor dead, sweet voices shall sing
their praises and fervent hearts shall
teach eloquent tongues to reverentially

our heroes gone.
Our Memorial Day is not n day for
sackcloth and ashes; it is not a day for
mourning or for fasting, nor should it
be day devoted by any patriotic
American TO frivolous festivities or
to holiday pastimes. 1t is day
for flag, for flowers, for music, for pa
triotism, a day for communing with the
dead who died that the Nation might
