employed by Contractor John Gerrick
beat that record all to pieces. and two
men drove something over 1900 between
the time they went to work in the
morning and when they ceased their

more than twice as much work on this
particular occasion as they would dur
ing an ordinary day. 1t kept them
hustling, however, to perform such a
feat and when they had finished they
did not feel like doing the same amount
OF labor every day.

regrets the seemingly growing ten
dency to make the occasion by some

day into existence was one which

Union under which we have lived and
prospered, and in its stead would
have risen up score Of states claim

interposition of divine providence
we were given wise ruler, one char.
acterized for his humanity, yet who
feared not to be Just. To sdoredly
observe the day is patriotic duty
aud 1t is pleasure to all loyal hearts,
We urge upon all good citizens the
necessity of its strict observance even
to the setting aside of those pleasures
in which one might be pleased to par
ticipate. Memorial Day with all its
patriotic and inspiring tendencies
must not be permitted to be lightly
observed or pass out of existence
while a single member of the Grand
Army of the Republic survives.
