APPROPRIATE
OBSERVANCE
Memorial Day Celebration
was a Success.
PARADE WAS ELABORATE
Exercises at the Cemetery
Most Interesting.
An Interesting Address Delivered by
h. N. Quigley-Good Music Add
ed to the Pleasure.

Despite the inclemency OF the
weather conditions Saturday, Memoir
ial Day was very nttingly observed
in this city and every feature of the
program OF the day was in order,
making in all the observance one OF
the most enjoyable in some years.
1t can be said without question that
the parade was without parallel and
that the program at the cemetery
surpassed many of its kind in gen
uine interest. The lacking feature
of the day was the comparatively
light attendance.

Rev. Mr. Rourke selected his text
from Joshua PALS, CHOOSE You
This Day Whom Ye Will Serve" In
,this remarks Rev. Mr.. Rourke stated
that there are many words in the
English Language which are so

observed they become sovereign.
The grcat word with Pascal, the
great thinker, was Virtue with
Thomas Jefferson associated with
governments was Democracy" and
with George Washington the first

are many words of much peculiar
value.
Rev. Mr.. Rourke brought another
word OF much Significance and that
was Service" Life is not an idle
dream but a stern reality and 1t Is
highly important that we Igive to
the world the highest service possi-
,'ble. The man, who will In any

t In closing his address the pastor
lspoke of the need of students. who
are being graduated of selecting to
whom thoy will give service. They
should consider this admonitlon OF
the dying Joshua with much care
and they viii ultimately find that
they should adopt a religious life.
There ar, three commencement
tdays of life, one at birth, one at
graduation and one at death, when
man will either begin to be an

given with heavy words worthy OF
much consideration. Choose You

A problem is before US for solution
It's timely and proper solution will

unless we at once rise as one man
with well organized and systematic
plan to stay such calamity.

ask not for our hard earnings, but
they are praying for employment that
they may keep the bowling wolf gaunt

Mrs. Eleanor Grenville McAneney
was born in Shankhill Castle, Dublin,
ireland, Feb. Z, 1884, died Feb. 5, 1908,
ather home in Minot, North Dakota, of
pneumonia. She was the daughter OF
Henry Grenville and Jane Norman,
grand daughter of the Hon. Washing
ton Grenville of Shankhill Castle.
When four years old her mother
died and the father was unfortunate
in the selection of a step-mother. From
that time the three children of Henry
and Jane Grenville were subjected to a
step mothers cruelty. Robbed Of their
rightful dowry, she was forced to fight
in the courts of Ireland for their
mothers property, willed them and
never received any of their rightful
Inheritance. Marrying at an early age
she came with her husband to Wiscon-
sin in October, 1866. There the
children were born. Leaving there
they moved to Winona, Mimi, where
they resided many years.
Mrs. McAneny was a woman of rare
ability. Educated in the castle by
private tutors and later taking a
course at Carlisle Ladies school, Eng
land, and a ladies school at Dublin,
she was eminently fitted to instruct
her children. And being God-fear-
ing woman she saw that her children
were brought up to live Cody and
Christian lives.
This tribute is the highest that can
be paid to a mother. In fact Mrs.
