STILL LIVE FOR US
Funeral March for Heroic
Dead Has Meaning Be-
yond Mere Honor to
the Fallen.

= VERY year, in the full tide Of
r. spring, at the height Of the SYM
phony of flowers and love and
life, there comes solemn pause, and
through the silence the nation hears
the lonely pipe Of death.
Year after year lovers wandering
under the apple boughs and through
the clover are surprised with sudden
tears as they see black-veiled figures
stealing through the morning to a SOL
dier's grave.
Year by year the comrades Of the
dead follow, with public honor, pro-
cession and commemorative flags and
funeral march-tribute from us who
have inherited a nations glory to the
heroes who gave 1t.
AS surely as this day comes round
we are in the presence Of the dead
But not all the associations Of this
day are sad; some Of them are tri-
umphant, even joyful.
We seem to hear the funeral march
become a pean. Our heroic dead still
live for US. and bid US think Of life
not death-of life to which in their
youth they lent the passion and glory
of the spring.

low green mound Of the extensive field
covered with flowers and immortelles.
There will be repetition of the an
nual ceremonies, with probably addi-
tional interesting features.
Alas! the column of ex-union sol
diers does not present long line. and
the few who participate are for the
most part bowed with age and in
creased disability which time has
wrought.
The patriotic organizations, sons and
daughters of veterans. and the loyal
people have taken up the work
which older hands have had to lay
down. The spirit Of gratitude and de-
votion to the memory of the country's
defenders inspires the whole nation
to-day as 1t did in 1868.
