MRMORIAL DAY

This is Memorial Day From one
end to the other Of this great land OF
ours, flags are flying. bands are play
ing funereal music, old soldiers are
marching and firing salutes over re-
cumbent and mouldering forms, loving
hands are .strewing flowers, and gifted
human tongues are framing words of
warm tribute to the brave men who,
in the dark days OF the civil war, went
10 the front and laid down their lives
in the defense OF their country and its
Institutions.
There is no sentiment more beauti-
ful than the remembrance OF friends
and comrades who are dead and gone.
There are no decorations more appro-
pirate than the glorious flag, for the
honor and integrity of which men
fought and bled and died in time of
war, and the flowers which bloom in
time OF peace. There are no objects
more worthy of flag and dlrge, and
volley and garland than what is mortal
OF the nations defenders.
The rancor of the stupendous con-
hict is dying away. The people OF the
North and che South are drawing near
er together in the true spirit OF ma
tional brotherhood. But the memory OF
thenational catastrophe which costsuch
an expenditure OF blood and tears and
riches must remain for all time as an
inspiration and warming; and while
1t remains, a grateful nation will not
neglect the graves OF those who stood
between it and dissolution and disas.

This is one Of the days when every
home should display the Stars and
Stripes. No matter how small the
flag may be every American citizen
should own one, or more, and feel that
it is his duty as well as pleasure to
have 1t wave on the Fourth of July
and Decoration Day. In many cities of
Germany, France and England the
house is not considered finished unless
it has a lagstaff attached, ready on all
occasions to show the national colors.
Let us have more fiagstaffs and more
flags throughout the city to express
the patriotism we all feel.

LET JUSTICE PREVAIL

From an apprehensive friend il
Smyrna we have received a letter o.
commentator and warning which be
gins in this wise:
am so glad you are opposing th,
pardon Of Hawkins. He expects to licl
you when he gets out next week-sayi
so.
We are sorry that such a catastrophe
is impending. If Mr.. Hawkins really
made the threat, we can understand
why some Of the Addicksites are SC
anxious to get him a pardon. At the
same time, it is pretty strong talk to
come from a prisoner who applies foI
a pardon on the ground that he is 50
III that his life may be jeopardized If he
is compelled to remain in Jail until the
mandate Of the court has been carried
to It's full execution.
We have said before, and we say
again, that it would be a travesty OF
justice for the Board of Pardons to in
terfcge in his case. The penalty i'm
posed by the court was light enough to
ct his offense, and it should be per-
mitted tO stand. Professionally and
politically Mr.. Hawkins has wasted his
life. His political transactions alone
should have placed him behind prison
bars long before his crooked profes-
sional transactions were called to the
attention of the Kent County Bar As
sociation and the Court of General Ses-
sicns with such disastrous results.

against one of the cleverest boxers of
his weight he has ever met, and one
who, because of the issue at stake. will
leave nothing in the way of preparation
undone to secure to himself a victory.
Hursts training has been done in

the scales at lis pounds. The bout
will be preceded by a 6-round prelimi-
nary between two local boxers, Sheehan
and Walker, who, though they have
never appeared before the Savannah
Athletic Club before, have something
of a reputation in certain circles. and
who promise to make their "go" at
least a warm one.
Since the opening of the Savannah
Athletic Clubs quarters at Bay and
Lincoln streets with the F'eltz-Moran
bout, Oct. %. a number of improve
ments have been made in the main
hall of the quarters: the stage has been
lowered to a much more convenient
hight for spectators, new chairs have
been put in the boxes, and a good deal
of painting and decorating done that
has aterially improved the appear
ance of the hall.
The management of the club states
that not only is this bout to be for the
