THE APPROACH OF MEMORIAL DAY.

| When on the 18th day of April.
1861. the Union flag was fired on al
Fort Sumpter, and the fort forced to
surrender, at once wave of patriot
ism swept over the whole north which
became irresistible. The words Of
Andrew Jackson were recalled. .By
the Eternal, this Union must and
shall be preserved" and when Abra-
ham Lincoln called for $1,000 yolun-
teers, his defeated competitor. Steph-
en- A. Douglas answered, mo. not rs
600 men, but 300,O 900 men, the last dol
lar, the last drop of blood in defense
of the Union"
Then from everywhere the people
streamed to the places of enlistment.
and for four years the war for the pres
ervation of the Union was fought out
but under sacrifices which sometimes
staggered the nation. But the Union
was saved and that war was the begin
ming of our real national life: il was
the birth of the American nation.
To the sacrifices of the people of the
north, which formed the grand army
of the nation, is due the fact that we
are now respected and honored among
the nations of the earth and are pros
porous under the constitution.
Memorial day is set apart to honor
those heroes who sacrificed their lives
to maintain the honor and integrity
of the nation, to honor that grand
army of our citizen soldiers who did
not hesitate to stake their life upon
their country's honor.
| Let the people turn out on this day
and show that they gratefully remem.
Der the patriotism of that grand army
and honor their surviving veterans as
well as the dead, show them that theil
services are gratefully remembered
and that we acknowledge the debt OF
gratitude which we as nation owe tt
the faithful and patriotic defenders
of the country.
Cutler Post will meet again next
/ Saturday in the afternoon and We
will be glad to publish any arrange
ments to be made and ask our citizen.
to assist in the preparation and make
this an impressive and solemn ceIebra
ton.

BARDEN-KENNEDY.

AT nine o'clock this morning at St.
James Catholic church in the city, Mr..
Earl w. Barden was united in mar
riage to Miss Ellen Mary Kennedy,
both of the city. The ceremony was
performed by the Rev. Father J. J..
Brennan. The bride was accompanied
by her sister, Miss Helena Kennedy.
and the groom's best man was his
cousin, Mr.. William Ryan, of Arnott.
Wis. Only the relatives of the con-
tracing parties were present to wit
ness the tying Of the nuptial knot.
All drove to the home of the brides
parents, in the town of Easton. where
a reception was held and all Joined in
the sincere wishes for the future
happiness and welfare of Mr.. and Mrs.
Barden. This was followed by a
sumptuous wedding dinner and the
afternoon and evening was spent in
celebrating the event.
The young people will go to house
keeping on the Barden homestead, in
the town of Easton, and where they
will make their future home.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Kennedy have
spent their lives in Marathon county,
near the ever beautiful banks of the
Eau Claire river. The bride is a
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. John II.
Kennedy and the groom the son Of
James II. Barden, all old and highly
esteemed citizens of our county, whose
names have been known and respected
since the early days of the pioneer
settlers. James II. Barden has been
on his farm in the town of Easton for
forty years; it was where he took his
bride thirty-fve years ago, and where
they fought lifes battles together

say that their children, who have just
been bound together in the strong
bonds of wedlock, are we'll known and
popular in our city and county, for it
goes without the saying. Suffice it tc
say that it is such learned, strong

Cutler Post No. So, of the Grand
Army of the Republic, has begun to
make arrangements for a proper OBJ
seryance of Memorial day, and it should
have the loyal assistance CT all of our
citizens, TO make this day, especially
this year, of more than ordinary sol
emnity.
Itisnow 30 years since the slave states
thought the time had come when they
must secede, withdraw from the Union.
if their cherished institution, slavery,
was to be maintained. Up to the
election of Abraham Lincoln, in 1860,
the slave states had the controlling
power in the government of the Unit
ed States, but with the rapid settle
ment of the northern free territory,
which brought new free states into the
Union and especially with the cleo
ton of Mr.. Lincoln, the slave states
saw their power vanishing, and wholly
mistaking the temper of the northern
people, the southern leaders concluded
that the time had come to withdraw
and form separate government of
their own, composed only of states
which recognized slavery.
The southern states expected to be
permitted to withdraw peaceably, but
at the same time prepared for war,
should war become unavoidable There
were differences among the leaders
of the north on the question whether
there should be dissolution of the
Union. The abolition party had for
years preached the doctrine, "down
with a constitution which recognizes
slavery" and the most influential
paper in the north, the New York
Tribune, with Horace Greeley editor,
was willing to let the south secede,
only wanted an election to submit the
question to the people, referendum
for dissolution. There was a small
party in New York City which wanted
to set up an independent government
for the city of New York, som ething
on the style of the cities of Hamburg
and Bremen, in Germany, but these
| self-constituted leaders understood no
better than the southern leaders that
while the north was divided on poll
tical questions, there was no division
on the question of their adherence to
the United States as a Union.

Memorial Day.

Until the veterans of the G. A. R.
shall have passed away, their claim
to Memorial day should be recognized
as paramount. They should not be
expected to play second fiddle to a
work horse parade, or to divide the
honors of day which would not have
existed but for them, with shows and
games.
1t is hard to prevent the perversion
OF holiday. It's significance is lost
sight of and it is turned to inconsist-
emit uses. The degeneration of the
Fourth of July is the strongest in
stance. 1t should always have been
kept as the birthday of the nation.
1t was allowed to become a day of
abominable noise, mutilation, and
death-Tetanus day.
There has been change for the
better of late. The patient efforts to
make the Fourth sane and safe are
rewarded by an increasing measure
of success. The first of our national
holidays is being redeemed. There
will be less gunpowder and more
patriotic pageants and festivals
Thus will the children learn the true
meaning of the day.
While rescuing the Fourth from
base uses we should not forget to
conserve Memorial day. 1t will re-
main after the last Grand Army post
shall have ceased to be. 1t will re-
main as long as the nation, the pres
ervation of whose unity it comment
crates, shall endure. Into its observ-
ance there should always be infused
much of the spirit of unfaltering
patriotism. Inevitably it will be for
many the mere day of rest from labor
the mere holiday-it is now but
its appropriate observance, ibe-
queathed from bleeding sire to son, -
should never be overslaughed by
parades or pastimes which do not be-
lit day consecrated to the memory
of the soldiers "who died that the
nation might live. Chicago Tribune.

1t is easy to imagine what the re-
suit would have been had the twelve
cases of scarlet fever discovered re-
manned in school and exposed large
number of children to the disease.
During the first six months two
hundred and forty-nine visits were
made by children to the infirmary,
and one hundred different children
were treated; eighteen operations
were performed; fourteen children
were treated for defective eyes and
six fitted with glasses, while the
dentists cared for twenty-six. All
other cases needing medical or surgi-
cal aid were treated by the family
physicians in the various homes.
We have found the medical inspec-
tion one of the most valuable adj
juncts to our schools, and we believe
that it will be permanent part of
school work.

ailments, ,lscovered in time and
promptly attended to, prevented
their becoming more serious and re-
quiring longer absence from school.
