HONOR THE HEROES.
1t Is Fitting That We Should Cher
ish the Memory of Those Who
Died for Their Cause,

If Egypt built pyramids to honor
the memory of her tyrannical kings,
it is fitting that America should keep
green the memory of those who died
in defense of the liberty our ancestors
won by battling against king. What
other nation has such good cause for
honoring its heroes as America?
We would have our children learn
the lesson of patriotism which comes
from the bivouac, the tedious march
and the battleSeld. We would have
them emulate the self-sacrifice of
those men who so cheerfully left the
office, the shop, the counting-room or
the plow to show their loyalty by
fighting, if need be, dying, for their
country. Whether they fought be-
meath the stars and stripes or beneath
the southern cross, they fought for
what they conceived to be the
right, and sealed their loyalty with
their blood.
The destinies of nations are shaped
by those who fight and die at their
country's call. History is written in
the blood of the brave and the true.
But the manhood of a nation is formed
by the hand that rocks the cradle. So
long as American mothers teach their
sons that the greatest possible priv
ilege and the highest honor is to fight
forcountry, its safety and its honor, so
long shall we have a nation in which
honor, chivalry, glory and patriotism
shall dominate. Would we check the
greed for wealth and power and stop
the mad career of mammon worship,
let us encourage the cultivation of
high ideals and lofty ambitions. Let
us cherish the memory of our dead
heroes, and while we minister to the
necessities of the living let us not for
get the dead, but as each recurring
Memorial day rolls round let us scat
ter flowers above the sacred dust and
renew our tributes of admiration and
gratitude.-Gen. Joseph Wheeler, in
Detroit Free Press.

SHALL WE REVISE THE cREED2
Debate on This Question begins In
the Presbyterian General Assembly.

Philadelphia, May 24.-With elo-
quence borne of the solemn import
| ance of the question, commissioners
to the Presbyterian general assembly
yesterday began the debate on the
| revision of the confession of faith.
| Brilliant leaders of the church adj
vanced their views in a calm, dispas-
sionate manner and the entire discus
! sion was void of acrimony. With a
| full realization of the great import
| ance of the subject the assembly pro-
| ceeded to consider thoroughly every
detail of the proposed changes in the
| creed.
Calvary church was not large
| enough to accommodate the throngs
who clamored for admission. Many
of the spectators did not leave the
church during the noon recess. AL
| though frequently requested to
avoid demonstrations, the audience
repeatedly applauded the speakers.
Among the spectators were many
clergymen of other denominations.
The great question came before the
assembly with the reading of the re-
port of the committee on revision by
| Rev. Charles \. Dicliey, chairman.
This was followed by the minority re-
port read by Rev. William McKibben,
of Cincinnati.
a rule of the assembly gives chair
men the right to speak on their re-
ports after they have been received,
bue before Mr.. Dckey could secure
recognition Rev. DR.. Samuel j. Mich
OILS moved the adoption of the first
recommendation in both reports.
Rev. James ID. Moffatt made a substi-
tute motion to adopt the majority
report and an amendment was Of
fered substituting the minority.
Rev. DR.. George b. Baker presented
as amendment resolution to the
effect that as the vote of the pres
| byteries indicated a lack of unanim-
ity, the entire subject be dismissed.
DR.. Dicliey secured the floor on this
amendment and made a stirring adj
dress supporting the old confession.
Rev. Herrick Johnson and Rev.
| Samuel j. Nicco!s aroused the un-
| bounded enthusiasm of the audience
| by the brilliant presentations of the
| revision factions reasons for desir-
ing a change.
Rev. George T. Purvis spoke against
revision, as did Rev. George d. Baker.
There are 25O commissioners com
mitted to dismissal, but they have
expressed themselves as open to con-
| yiction.

advantage which / appreciate. Better

might be too late!"
But Clarissa was by no means happy
in what she glorified as her adherence
TO principle. She was fearfully and
pathetically lonely, and she tried not
to hear when the black horse and his
rider dashed down the driveway on
their way to the drills and parades,
which became SO frequent with the
nearness of Memorial day.
The misunderstanding had deepened
now; for there had been other and Bit
ter words, and each studiously avoided
looking in the direction OF the other
when they met, which was but rarely.
Fair as a garden of the Lord was the
countryside upon the morning of
Memorial day; but Clarissa could see
no beauties in nature as she moped in
the sewingroom which overlooked the
driveway, confiding her unhappiness
to petted, snarling Fifine.
Out at the stable the groom was put
ting the saddle on Black Don-for the
coming parade, she knew; and pres
emily Robert appeared at the side door
carrying flag, which he proceeded to
run up the staff on the lawn.

at schools in France and England
since she was II, shortly after her
fathers death, and that of her moth
er, which quickly followed. As Aunt
Frances said, America had grown too
fast FOR her.
There had been many changes in
the neighborhood during her abb
sence. On what had been Grand
mother Owings' old-fashioned flower
garden a handsome modern dwelling
had been erected, and the two fam
lilies used the dividing driveway in
common. Down this driveway, sew
eral times each day, an athletic young
man was wont to go, laden with golf
sticks, riding a wheel, armed with gun
or fishing tackle, or erect upon the
back of spirited black horse, which
from the first had been Fifine's es-
pecial detestation. AS in another
cele ebrated and classical case, the
neighborhood caused their acquaint-
ance in the tirst steps OF love. Even
England and France could produce
no more splendid specimen of man
hood than was Robert hale, as Clar-
issa was forced to admit to her un-
willing self.
Perhaps that was why the winter
which followed her Homecoming
