A National Recreation Day.

Success Magazine for July suggests
q national recreation day" to occur
each year about May 80, the present
Memorial day to fall hereafter upon
Sunday. In view of the departure Of
Memorial day from its original pur-
pose of remembrance of the dead and
its complete giving up to sport this
suggestion is a very timely one. Me-
mortal day by falling always upon
Sunday will retain its true semi
religious character. On the other hand,
the spirit of sport is so strong that in
the early summer a day given up to
outdoor recreation is the logical out
growth of our habits of life. 1t is like
" that this suggestion will meet with
wide approval.

James Russell Lowell was a great
favorite in the literary circles of Lon
don. On one occasion at a large ban
quet the peculiarities of American
speech were discussed with English
bluntness. Lord S. called to Mr.. Lowell
loudly, so as to silence all other speak
ers:
There is one new expression invent
ed by your countrymen so foolish and
vulgar as to be objectionable. They
talk of the ashes of the dead We
don't burn corpses. No Englishman
would use a phrase so absurd"
And yet" said Mr.. Lowell gently,
your poet Gray says, speaking of the
dead:
Fer in our ashes live their wonted fires.
And in the burial services of the
church of England it is said, Dust to
dust and ashes to ashes We sin in
good company" A cordial burst of APP
plause greeted this prompt rejoinder.

The Dawson Consolidated Grocery Co.
Adopts Resolutions on His Death
The follow resolutions were adopted
nv the directors OF Dawson Consoll-
dated Grocery Company on the death

We are called upon in the midst OF
life's duties to commemorate the death
of an associate who has shared win
rs in the labors and responsibility OF

We shall never again have him sit IN
conference with US as board seeking
to promote the welfare of this compa-
nv, and we will sadly miss his wise
counsel and his matured judgment
AS a business man he was just, hon.
orable and considerate in all his deal
ipgs: his word was as good as any
mans bond. He was genial, gener-
Gus and unselfsh in the highest de-
gree. and reckoned friendship the
golden thread in the warp and Woot
of life's weaving.
His friends we're numbered by the
circle of his acquaintance, and 10
know him was to esteem him Tor MS
sterling worth. He was man OF
broad philanthropy, and his hand
was ever open to the demand OF chart
tv. A needy suppliant was never de-
MED his help, and sorrow and suffer-
ing constantly found relief through
his liberal benefactions.
Wherefore, be it resolved by the
board of directors of Dawson Consol-
idated Grocery Company that we SIN
cerely lament the death OF Capt. Phil
ip E. Boyd, and deplore the fact that
this board has thus lost one OF lts
most useful and capable members.
Be it further resolved, that we ten
der our heartiest sympathy to the rel
atives of our departed friend and as
sociate, and that copy of these reso-
buttons be sent to the family; also that
the same be recorded on our minutes
and copies be furnished to The DaW-
son News and Calhoun County Cou-
rier for publication.
