For your kind invitation to address
you upon this occasion wish to thank
you. IT is indeed an honor and a priv
ilege which fully appreciate to stand
in your presence on the evening of this
Memorial day to speak. If perchanee
/ can, single word that will be ap-
propriate and is in keeping with the
spirit of this anniversary. which with
the receding and recurring years is
fuller of meaning, more blessed in it's
significance to every patriotic citizen
who today pauses. in the onward march
of things. and thinks of his country
what it was in the early beginning,
what the valor, self sacrifice and pa
triotism of the Union soldier made it
to be. and while thus rejecting upon
the Republic, pay proper and well-de-
served tribute and homage to the
Union soldier. dead and living, who
with a patriotism born of the heavens,
sacrificed everything that the Union
might he preserved and that liberty
and freedom. for which our forefathers
fought and died, might not perish from
the earth. And then to think of the
glorious result The Republic saved
and the Union established for all time,
and not one star erased from the blue
field of our glorious flag"
Continuing. the speaker told of the
significance of Memorial day, and of
the reasons why it's observance should
ne rerpetuated, and also paid feeling
tribute to the Constitution of the Unit
ed States and to the American flag. He
then gave a resume of the Civil War
and of the events which led up to it, all
OF which proved of much interest to
those present. In closing the speaker
said:
Time is slowly gathering into the

against a cross seat. II was not until
they had whired past a couple of sta
lions that she realized she was not on the
downtown side How could she have made
such a mistake?
BY the time she had gotten off and
crossed over to the other side it was
twenty minutes of o'clock. Warren
would be home now before she could get
there-and he hated TO find her out. Her
arms ached with the bundles she was
carrying and lie, hair and veil was dis
arranged, but she had no free hand to
fix them.
When she came out at her station there
were still three long blocks to walk. 1t
was piercingly cold and her hands al
ready tired with holding the bundles now,
grew stiff in their thin kid gloves.
A. clock in a drug store window said
three minutes of six. Warren would be
waiting-she almost ran the rest of the
way. AS she went up in the elevator the
mirror reflected her face. unbecomingly
red with the cold. Dropping the packages
on the seat. she hastily drew out pocket
powder puff to subdue the offending
glow of her nose-she could not bear for
Warren to see her like that.
But Warren hardly looked up when
she entered He was reading the evening
papers. his feet proped on a chair.
"Oh. I'm so sorry to be late. Have YOU
been home long, dear?" STOPPING over
and kissing him.
Ugh" drawing back, your hands are

to throw off her things and then out to
the kitchen to see II Della had every
thing ready for dinner.

out the packages and opened them.
