Mr.. BursChcll Il well-known local
member of the Socialist Labor party.
Mr.. Dalton defined Socialism and
then launched into denunciation of
capital. In speaking of strikes, he
made the sweeping assertion that of
one hundred thousand men out on
strike at present, it is safe to say that
there are not twenty thousand who
will try to win that strike by the
proper methods.

EAST r SERVICES.
(Special To TELEGRAM.\

East Barre, May 27.-The Sunday
Memorial ser ice was held in the Con.
gregational church. The assembly
room was ta~stefully. decorated with
bunting and flowers under the super
attendance Of Mrs. Warren Nye, to
whom much credit is due.
The choir sang an anthem in un-
usually good style. Bert Dicke!
singing the obligato solo with clear.
ness and sweetness.
Then followed a unique address by
Rev. E. E. Angel which received un
divided attention from the large con-
gregation.
After Kidding welcome t. all veter-
ans and friends he went on to deal
with the subject of war in general and
| of the war bt tween the north and
south in particular. Contrition and
repentance must be felt for the ma.
lions which sin SO %grievously US to
make war ~ cessary. "Magnify the
soldier but deplore the necessity OF
war"
We cannot consistently make God
the originator of any war. All fol-
lowers Of the meek and lowly Jesus
must choose the path Of peace. Look
at the conflict of brothers which
is primarily the cause of this
Memorial service. Both the north
and the south were busy with
their money makiog, For climatic
reasons the business interests of the
north aud the south were continually
opposed to each other. The laws
which we're beneficial to one
were injurious to the otner. How did
the negro enter into the strife? He
was profitable to the south but not to
the north. The south was entitled to
representatives for three fifths of all
their slaves, their power in congress
was therefore increased and the ma
jority of the fat office fell to their lot.
Northern politicians rebelled against
this. No apostle Of peace was there
to allay the troubled waters, and the
selfsnness of the north ruled and they
r Used a popular cry. abandon the
slave trade, make free the sla 'eS."
War broke out and in the desolation
which followed was proven that mex
orable law, "Whatsoever a man sows
that shall he also reap" Sorrow had
been sown in the he artS Of thousands
OF human beings who could feel though
they were black. W. reaped what we
sowed in the tearing of wife from hus-
band, of son from parent. An obey
ing Of Gods voice could not bring this
war, but God used it to bring freedom
to the slaves.
The speaker then admonished all
present to cultivate a Christian patri-
otlsm. God requires a march Of civil
lizatiOn from Christian nations but
never with the sword In hand. The
glad gospel .tidings are the only true
civilizing and uplifting forces. "Let
us reach out toward a common BROTH
erhood, which will eventually bring
peace, let our motto be The World
for Christ and His Peace Among all
Men"
The congregation joined heartily
in the singing Of the National anthem
and we're dismissed with the usual ben.
ediction.

observance grows no less as the years

Among the thousands who assemble
in the VARIOUS parts of the country on
Memorial day there are doubtless many
who do not know the origin of the GUS

Army of the Republic there are enthu-
siastic members who are uniformed
on that important point. The decora.
tion Of soldiers graves was not the
prime object Of the Grand Army Of the
Republic, but 1t was one of its first re-
suits. The favor with which the prac-
tice was received in all parts of the
country gained for the organization the
