wild flowers Of the season are especially popular
for this purpose. In the sections where the
season is sufficiently advanced the roses ana
peonies are great favories on this occasion ana
in the cooler cmes vioets and the hardy pnKs
are used extensively. In the more southernly
states the yellow jasmine and the honeysuckle

to find the gorgeous purple wistara at the climax
of it's glory The mountain laurel is another
floral favoritc that lends itself to the purposes
of the holiday but of course 1t is not obtatnabie
in all sections of the country.
In recent years the use Of natural flowers on
Memorial day has been supplemented by the ex
tensve u.s. OF artificial flowers. particularly in
the form Of wreaths designs emblematic OF
wartime badges flags However. the art
flower designs' of the present day are Indeed
a revelation compared with the crude attempts
of some years ago. Some of the Decoration day

occupy as large a place as possible in the public
eye. At Memorial day. on the other hand the
regular flower marts. although they have rush

but a fraction Of the flowers that are placed on
the graves Of the nations warriors.
The vast preponderance OF the flowers that are
used to express the love and gratitude Of the
people of the republic on the yearly-recurring
Memorial day are homegrown posies whose cul'
tvation with view to such ultimate use Is as
much labor of love is the strewing OF the
blossoms on the graves. Or. at least the flowers
are for the most part garden blooms rather than
the frail products of the hot houses. Indeed the
selection Of May 80 Memorial day in large
proportion Of the states of the union was made
primarily because 1t was an occasion when spring
was presumed to be in her most attractive garb
and when the spring floral harvest Is at Its
height. Similarly the southern states. being as
sured an abundance Of flowers at yet earlier
dates, have, much for this reason as for any
other, chosen Memorial day dates that seemed
to mark the elimination OF the floral flood In
their respective states rather than strict con-
formity with the date at the end Of May, which
is universally observed in the eastern. north
ern and western states and in the more northerly
Of the commonweaths of Dixie. This Will ex-
plain why certain OF the states, notably those
OF the Gulf Of Mexico, observe Memorial day
days weeks in advance Of the remainder OF
the sisterhood OF states.
The use of flowers Memorial day is varied
and appears TO De growing more SO as time goes
At first suggestion of the occasion the
reader is apt to think only of the custom of pac-
ing bouquets and wreaths in garlands on the
grassy mounds beneath which repose in their
last dreamless sleep the boys in blue and gray
who gave up their lives in defense Of their flag.
But a matter Of fact 1t is a long-established
custom for the American people generally to
choose this occasion to place specially elaborate
decorations upon the graves of loved ones,
though those whose memory is thus honored had
naught to do with the stress and strife. the
sacrifces of which Memorial day is primarily
Intended to commemorate
One of the comparatively new uses of flowers
IN Memorial day, which has grown greatly in
recent years, is the custom Of placing wreaths
II floral festoons other similar tributes upon
he statues which have been erected in the
,arious American cities to our wartime heroes.
At the national capital where there are more
han two dozen such statues, the pedestals are
also draped with American flags. This decora-
ton of the statues in parks and public buildings
throughout the land is of course, quite aside
from the usual placing of tributes at the graves

Of the occasion Is served
AS death has year by year remorseessly
thinned the ranks Of the Grand Army or the
Republic, the Confederate Veterans and other or
ganizations Of onetime soldiers there has OF
necessity been a change in the plan OF bearing
flowers to the cemeteries and decorating the
graves OF those who have answered to the call

throughout the burying ground until little girl
with flowers and a veteran with a wreath stood
beside each grave marked with tiny American
flag. Then at prearranged signal all the flowers
and wreaths were placed simultaneously upon the
graves of the comrades whom death has mus
tered out"
This impressive ceremony, and there could be
nothing appropriate, Is yet followed in
countless communities. but there have had to be
many notifications. For one thing the graves
to be decorated have become much more numer
Gus, whereas the number of surviving veterans
who able to march to the cemetery with
their wreaths has dwindled appreciaby. A solu
tion has been found in many Places by drafting
for this task members Of the Sons of Veterans
other organizations made up of children OF
old soldiers and also veterans of the Spanish
American war, many of whom comparatively

Another factor that has operated to influence
a change in the of flowers Memorial day
is the growth in the size of many Of cities.
In towns and small cities 1t Is still practicable
for the Decoration day host to march to the ceme-

much of a problem. In many instances cemeteries

Just Hopes.

A gentleman never snatches his
trousers away from his wife when he
discovers her going through his pock-

enough with which to go downtown In
the morning. He is perfectly welcome
to go through her purse any time and
help himself to anything he can find.

man should not allow his feelings to

Over the hills and far away,
A little boy steals from his morning
pay,
And under the blossoming apple tree
He lies and dreams of the things to be;
Of battles fought and of victories won,
Of wrongs oerthrown and of great
deeds done
Of the valor that he shall prove some
day,
Over the hills and far away
Over the hills and far away
Over the hills and far away,
It's o for the toll of the livelong day!
But it mattered not to the soul ahame
With a love for riches and power and
fame
On. o man! while the sun is high
On to the yonder joys that lie
Yonder where biazeth the noon of day!
Over the hills and far away
Over the hills and far away!
Over the hills and far away
An old man fingers at close of day;
Now that his journey is almost done,
His battles fought and his victories
won
The old-time honesty and truth,
The trustfulness and the friends of
youth,
Home and mother where are they?
Over the hills and far away?
Over the hills and far away!
