VETERANS GATHER TO
HONOR HEROES MEMORY

With trembling steps but with pa
triotism and love for fallen comrades
dominant the old soldiers gathered at
another memorial service yesterday
afternoon in Simpson auditorium,
where they have met so many years
each year with a few less and with
we'll known faces gone forever from
their midst
The auditorium had been draped with
tho flag which so many had given their
lives and best years to serve, and many
beautiful flowers were arranged about
the platform.
The old soldiers gathered for the
march to the auditorium with the
Spanish War Veterans and in steps
that reflected but suggestion of mar
tial tread marched to the auditorium,
where the whole lower floor was re-
served for the veterans while the bal
cony was reserved for the w. r. @.
and other organizations.
Among the decorations included sew

CEREMONIES AT RoSEDALE
CEMETERY BEAUTIFUL

Rosedale cemetery exercises were not
able because the day marked the un-
yelling time for the cannon presented
by the war department.
This was one of the old-style rifled
guns, and was presented to the post
on behalf of the government by Capt
Amos A. Fries.
over a thousand persons were in line
in the parade to the cemetery, includ-
ing $50 veterans of Stanton post nearly
as many members of the woman's aux
iliary, and children from Washington
Pico Heights and Harper schools. The
drummers and fifers led the van.
: The young people carried baskets anc
bouquets of flowers, which at the prop
er time they presented to the living
| veterans to garland the resting places
of the dead.
Shrouded In a big flag. the cannon
formed the striking center of hollow
square made by the veterans.
Capt. F. j. Cressey introduced Capt
Fries as one whose name will live long
in connection with the commercial ad-
vancement of this section and who has
labored faithfully and unostentatiously
for the development of the harbor IA
cilities of Los Angeles county.
This gun Is a fitting emblem to rest
here, overlooking your Dead said Cap
tain Fries. ut Is made of iron, as were
you men, and it saw service in the same
battles that many of you did"
Captain Fries contrasted the problems
of past generations with those of the
present and coming generations, calling
for manifestation of sturdy patriotism
In civil life.
He emphasized the necessity of disin-
terested civic as well as military SefV-
ice for ones country.
"The greed of gold and the greed of
power are the problems we must meet
today" he said, after contrasting the
fifty years ago. "Civic righteousness
must be upheld, and it calls for no less
a degree of patriotism than did the sac
rifices of the war In which these SOL
diers fought"
AS the covering dropped from the
cannon the drummers rolled" and
then Commander Charles e. Chase ac-
cepted the gift for his post.
The usual ritual was carried out IN
connection with the G. A. r. exercises
Commander Chase and w. F. Hub
bard, chaplain, read the ritual for the
dead, Commander F. w. Heidel OF Kos
ecrans camp, Sons of Veterans, accept
ing in behalf of his organization the
charge of the G. A. r. to uphold the
principles the veterans fought for.
Patriotic airs were sung by the school
tial music, alternated.
Rev. David Howe of Westlake Meth
odist church delivered an address to the
assemblage, asking the men of today TO
be just as patriotic in the jury box as
the veterans of 81 were with the cart
ridge box.
'"They have preserved the Union in
tact" said Rev. Mr.. Howe. 1T Is the
duty of citizens today to maintain such
patriotic sentiment as will carry the
Union to its highest and best develop
ment."
Later the veterans gathered at the
grave of Gen. Lewis Tappan Barney,
over which flag sent by Gen. Barney's
old post, Lafayette No. 140, of New
York city, was placed.
Gen. j. e. Duryea. organizer and
commander of the famous Duryea zou-
aves, placed the flag at the head of the
grave, making a brief address recount
ing the life of decedent. Gen. Duryea
and Gen. Barney were old comrades.

NATURE CONTRIBUTES LAviSHLY

Southern California In Reverence Pays
Tribute to Memory of Those
Who Died In Country's
Service

Bivouacs of the dead were reverently
strewn with flowers In Southern Cali
fornia yesterday. the tribute to valor
and sentiment.
Nature contributed lavishly to renew
the memories of the departed heroes.
for nature in Los Angeles Is liberal.
In all the land no such lavish display
of flowers could be seen.
Aged men tottered in parade, not as
lively, perhaps, as some years ago,
but the same fires were burning in
their hearts. Behind them stepped
their sons and grandsons, actuated by
the same intense love of country.
Pulses went faster at the sight of the
hundreds of school children who
walked with the veterans, carrying
flags and flowers and breathing the
sentiment of honor for the men who
died for principle, whether on land or
on sea.
Reverent Idea Prevails
In the city cemeteries, beside the
park monuments and on the beaches
the reyerent idea inspired all who cele-
bfated Memorial day, and 1t was evil
dent that the veterans organizations
are gradually and surely overcoming
the tendency of late years of devoting
Memorial day to frolics, picnics and
contests rather than to a reposeful,
lofty worship of ideals.
In the speeches the dominant note
was that the patriotism of peace had
Its demands. too, in requiring higher
civic citizenship, dare-to-do- right
principle In every day life.
1t was fitting that on such day the
skies should be overcast. Gloom over
head seemed not out of place on May
30, but later in smiling graciousness
the sun agian asserted himself, sending
rays on mounds and graves and waves,
beneath which slumbered the heroes
of past wars.
The various organizations divided
the detail work of decorating widely
In and near Los Angeles, but all took
part in the morning and afternoon
parades to and from the places of rem
devious and the music of fife and drum
and bugle was in the air with noisy
volleys as a fitting finale.
