Memorial Dau.
Tomorrow is Memorial Day.

tomorrow is Memorial Day.
Year by year the ranks are growing
thinner, year by year the fields are
getting fatter, year by year the serY-
ices are falling from the shoulders of
the veterans to the willing hands of
youth. It is a beautiful custom: the
decoration of the graves of the brave
by their survivors and by their chill
dren: for We are their children and
they were the true fathers of their
country.
Memorial Day has ceased to have
any tang of bitterness in 1t; it has
become day of ancestral worship,
a day devoted TO spiritualized feast
of flowers; day for worshiping at
the altar of bravery The younger
generation, with reverence, accepts
the customs Of the day from the gen
Grafton that established them, and
the older generation may be assured
that not one Of these pious customs
will be curtailed or annulIed. As the
veterans pass, one by one, TO the
last roll-call, as the taps are sounded
for them. and the lights are put out,
they may lie down in the confidence
that the new guard will be on duty
and that year by year the country
will pay homage to their comrades
and to them.

alton is much the same. To gossip on
motel porches TO fiirt on the beach, to
grow weary in the effort to grow rested
this Is q travesty of vacation. To Ash

back to the ordinary routine of life
refreshed and Eecreated
That should be our attitude toward
vacation; to broaden the currents of
our lives; to learn what other people
are doi-.i5; to get in touch with nature
and man; to get the rest that comes
from a change of occupation and at
titude. Goethe said:
Rest is not quitting the busy career,
Hest Is but fitting ones self to ones
sphere.
Surely, there is no better way to
fit one for ones sphere than to learn
something of the duties and pleasures
of other people.
Vacation, in essence. is designed to
allow one to change his attitude to
the world To most people this is
most easily accomplished by a change
OF scene and atmosphere, but the
spirit of it may be attained at home

Vacations.

The season of the year approaches
when the annual vacation looms upon
the horizon with all its possibilities
for pleasure and profit. Tempting
literature, profusely illustrated by
views Of mountains, lakes. and sylvan
deIls, is to be had for the asking at
all the railway offices; each booklet
proving, beyond the possibility of con-
tradiction, that to get all the benefits
of natural scenery and hotel comfort
one must travel by way Of X Y &
z. R. r The railways serve them
selves and the public well by issuing
these travel books and the high grade
of workmanship bestowed upon them
is creditable to the enterprise Of the
country.
But the benefits of a vacation are
not confined to those whose bank ac-
counts permit of extended travel or
prolonged sojourns at expensive
watering places. Indeed, too much
travel or too long stay at the show
places may put the possessor of
wealth out OF touch with the vacation
idea. In this connection the June
editorial in The World Today says:
If mans ordinary occupation is arti-
fetal and exciting, he ought TO turn
aboriginal and find a place where he
cannot sleep on a mattress, ana where
he will grow decidedly indifferent as 10
what he eats and the number Of times
a day he washes his hands. a man of
sedentary life ought to tura farmer
The teacher can turn pupil. The man
who lives on farm should go to a
great city or some assembly. The house
keeper should board, or at least aban-
don course dinners. In word, q va
cation should be as unlike ones ordinary
way of living as possible. Then
