the Hall aud dinner served in the school
rooms below. Contributions Of food
and flowers are quite essential and
much sought for on such occasions.
What can be more appropriate than
honoring the soldiers dead or living by
visiting the silent camping grounds
where sleep our comrades, the. Nations
dead. and honoring their memory by
garlanding their passiomteless mounds
with flags and flowers and thus teach
ing the lesson Of patriotism.
The old soldiers are grateful to all
who aid in this, TO their sacred service.
but they prize most of all the help OF
the boys andigirls. Our time for fur
Their service for our country is neces
sarily short, the field of effort that
promises the greatest reward is the
youth of our country.
We desire to impress upon them the
fact that upon them soon will devolye |
the responsibility Of citizenship and
government, that the preservation and
development of the country for which
we fought will require loyalty and pat
rotlsm as true and noble rs that dis
played in 1861 to 1865 We would also
impress the fact upon the general pub
iic that the Woman's Relief Corps, so
essential TO the comforts OF camp, field
or hospital IN times Of war, will be
needed Memorial Day 10 provide food
for the old soldiers and their families,
for every one that is present contri
butes that which we prize more than
we can tell, their loving sympathy for
onr cause Let us this year do our full
duty to those who died that the Nation
might live and with loving hands and
tender hearts provide something Tor ,
Or friends TO eat aud 10 that end we
would earnestly ask the public to con
