Decoration Day Observance

DCCOA OtAOAA Lay OOoOA NoANC
The observance of Memorial day
and Decoration day in Meade was
in both instances numerously at
tended. The memorial services were
in the Methodist church, conducted
by Rev. T. F. Hancks of the Bap-
fist church, and the memorial SER
mon was preached by Rev. w. G..
Baker of the Methodist church. The
audience rooms of the church we're
beautifully decorated for the occas-
ion, and the ushers managed by the
use of chairs to comfortably seat
nearly all the congregation. The
ceremonies of decoration day were
attended by larger crowds than ever
before in the history of the county.
This indicates that the memories
which make the day sacred, are not
to be forgotten by coming genera
lions; that love of country and ven
Grafton for her defenders is not on
the wane; that patriotism warns the
hearts of Americans today as it has
In the past, and foreshadows ready
defenders in case of need for the
future. The program as published
in the News last week was worked
out successfully at every number.
The VonProsky band led the pro-
cession to the cemetery with appro-
pirate music. The years intervening
between the day of their enlistment
and last Monday forbid the march
of the veterans as of other years,
and autos carried them to this an
nual decoration of the graves of
their comrades. The children who
actually strewed the flowers followed
in conveyance. and the public in
carriages came after them. The
universal participation of the citi-
zens of the county made the observ-
ance of the day impressive and
instructive. In looking about for
reasons why this decoration day
was so fittingly observed, we found
that the last sentence above answer
ed the question. The different COM
mittees discharged h cir duties
faithfully. Every person who was
asked to take a part did so cheer
fully. In this as In every public
matter the readiness of the individ-
ual to give him or herself to the
service of the public makes for the
good of the whole body of the
public.
Each annual recurrence of this
day has its sorrowful reminders of
the frightening years since the civil
war, in the increasing number of
those comrades who have been dur
ing the year retired from active SER
|
vice in the division of time, and
placed on the retired list of eternity.
Those who were thus promoted dur
ing the past year in Meade county
are Lieutenants E. C. Grigsby and
Benjamin Low, and Sargent E. E.
Beuchecker. Each of them enlisted
early in the war as privates. Lieu
tenant Grigsby was for nearly all of
! his three years service acting Cap
tain. and in command Of his com.
pany in the field, his captain being
captured, and later exchanged only
to again in few months be taken
and returned to prison. No officer
was promoted over his superior who
was prisoner of war.
/ Lieutenant Low entered the SER
vice as a private, was discharged,
and the same day enlisted as lieu
tenant in another regiment and

62,OOQ WORKMEN
 OUT IN ENGLAND

Newcastle, Eng. July 21.-The strike of the employees on the Northeastern Railroad is fast demoralizing the in- dustries dependent upon the line. The dis-organization of traffic threatens ruin to many shippers.
 In addition to 12,000 railroad men who are out it is estimated today that fully 50,000 workers in collieries, ship yards, iron works and other plants have been rendered idle through the inability of the companies to move the product. The loss on perishable goods, fish, milk and the like is enor- nous. Whole catches of herring fleets intended for Yarmouth and Lowestoft are rotting at different ship ping points along the railroad.
 The amalgamated society of railway servants refuse to recognize and fi- nance the strike against the North western Railway Company. This at- titude on the part of the society, which embraces the whole country, will probably prove fatal to the suc- cess of the strike.
