honoring their memory by garlanding
their mounds with flags and flowers
and teaching the lessons of patriotism

to the generation growing up around

It is a regretable fact that pro-
family has become common among
the boys. 1t is not the least cut
Of the ordinary where group of
10 to 155year old boys are together
on the street or in any open space
to play a game Of ball. to hear
them using oaths that might shit
the tongues Of the proyerbial fish
wife or costermonger, but which
are shocking falling from the
tongues Of children Of such tender
years. OF all stupid and silly
vices, profanity is one Of the worst
and most abominable. A simple
statement of the fact is much
stronger than any statement en-
bellished with swear words, and
no lie is made any more beliey-
able by being framed in profan-
| ity. In fact, both truth and false
hood are weakened by fwearing
and taking the Lords name ii
vain. Foul epitaphs and compar.
isons are not convincing, but are
almost invariably disgusting ex.
cepting to those making use Of
them. Profanity among men seems
to be growing less and less, al
least in public places, and among
those who may lay claims to de.
cency and some education. But
the habit seems to have firmly
fixed itself upon a great many o.
the boys, who may imagine it man
nish to use profanity and smoke
cigarettes. Elk. s3.s II

ABERDEEN MAN INVESTIGATES
An Aberdeen man who desires

the case, and therefore does not
desire to have his name mentioned,
is spending his. vacation in the
state of New York. Reading in
the News of the terrible affair at
Rudolph, this man took the trouble
to go to East Aurora and look up the
past record of the Victor family.
This is what he says in a letter to
an Aberdeen friend:

off Of one of them, but got out of

dent. The East Aurora people also
state that he stole a horse and
buggy and several other things,
and he has been highway robber
and has served time.

lily. The people here say that he
