Rest d ernbalmed and sainted dead!
Dear as the blood We gave,
No impious footsteps shall tread
The heritage of your gfnye;
Nor shall your story be forgot,
While fame her record keeps,
Or honor points the hallowed spot
Where valor proudly sleeps.
Yon marble minstrel's yoicless stone
In deathless song shall tell
When many d vanished age hath flown,
The story how We fell;
Nor wreck, nor change, nor winters
blight
Nor times remorseless doom.
Shall dim one ray Of glory's light
That gilds your deathless tomb.

Whether their coats were blue Or gray,
Honor the soldiers brave.
Honor their comrades who live to-day,
Their locks Of brown turned silyery

Honor the living, too;
Cover with kindness their feeble years,
Their heads are bowed and their end
appears,
Give them their share OF your pray
ers and cheers,
Honor the living, too.
Honor the a who by his deed,
Proves that he stands by his country's
need,
Who saves the land his fathers freed,
Crown him with laurels today;
Honor the wives and mothers true,
Who gave their all for country, too,
Wether their boys wore gray or blue,
Grown them with love today.
Heroes of peace as well as strife
Battle to rescue the nations life,
Warriors Of peace as well ais strife
Cover with laurels today:
To those who try in life's hard school
To practice the creed of the golden

Who scorn to become ambitions tool,
We tender our praise today.

THE BLUE N GRAY.


NhereA cedars flanked the village
church
Like sentries dark and tall,
Two soldiers slumbered side by side
Beneath a grassy pail.
One from his messy stone proclaimed
That he had fought with Lee,
And N had marched the weary road
With Sherman TO the sea.
There came a band Of veterans
Upon Memorial Day
And planted roses on the blue,
But left unmarked the gray.
But when returning to the spot
Another year, behold!
Their comrade Of the battlefield
Rebuked them from the mould.
The roses rooted In his dust
Reached out their tender sprays
Through starry nights, and dewey
dawns,
And sunny golden days.
They showered with petals and per.
fume
That green and silent place,
And folded both the s~lcepers there
Within their sweet embrace.
Each grizzied hero barred his head.
And every furrowed check
Was frightened by 4 E that told
The thoughts that none could speak;
And so upon Memorial Day.
In sunshine or in showers,
Since then they deck alike the graves
Of blue and gray with flowers.

&c. w. G. W.
High exalt our flag of glory,
Let it float upon the breeze;
While the sunshine plays upon it
AS it glistens through the trees.
It has located Ger the ocean
Over mountain, town and plain
Gently s%hrouding countless heroes
For their conntry's honor slain
It was dyed a deeper crimson
Where they make their lowly bed
And the flag is holier ever
AS it floats above the dead.
symbol fair of faith and honor
Shines the bright respondent blue,
And the CLEAN Of snowy Witness
Points to all that's pure and true.
Stars of light that ever lead us
Onward, upward to the goal.
May thy glory undiminished
Spread its beams from pole to pole
Ever leading. onward, upward,
Flag of wisdom, joy and power
Foremost in the righteous conflict,
Fastening on the gladstone hour
When the wrongs of man are righted
In the golden dawn of day,
When the long black night has van,

In the bright mil'en'al ray.
Song Of the Flag
Laugh, laugh We happy breezes, @
We waves the chorus keep
Smile. smile, We dancing snnbeams,
No more the world shall weep.
Culumbia's flag the guardian
OF love and home and peace
Joy to the world forever
For crime and wrong shall cease.
Dear flag, our hearts are swelling
With purest love for thee,
Our happy voices blending
In sweetest melody,
Forever and for ever
OF truth and liberty
Our flag shall be the guardian,
Blest banner OF the free.
