This being Decoration Day 1T will be
we'll to remember that among the dead
volunteer heroes who lay buried in
lonely graves across the ocean in the
Philippines is paddy" Phalep, an Osna-
brock boy, who sailed for Manila two
years ago at his countrys call. The
debt of gratitude we owe the nations IS
heroes both living and dead is only
enhanced by the flight of time. Several
of Cavalier counly's sons served under
the flag in the Filipino war and it is hoped
that all will be with us today to join
in the homage paid to the heroes
of Gettysburg and Bunker Hill. Thirty
six years have passed since these grey
haired old veterans fought to save the
Union. Let Langdon do herself proud
today in homer and devotion to the
" walton var veterans.
