Origin of nemoriaI Day.

Memorial Day owes its origin to q Ger
man soldier, General T.. L. Mathies, OF
Burlington, Iowa, who was the first edu-
Gated officer OF that race 10 offer his SER
vices to President Lincoln at the beginning
OF the Civil War. Mathles, about May !,
1868, wrote TO Adjutant-General Chapman,
OF the Grand Army OF tile Republic, sug-
costing thai the touching custom prevail
ing M Germany OF decorating each spring
the soldiers graves be adopted III this
country.
General Chapman was so impressed by
the letter from Mathies that lie at once
handed it 10 General John A. Logan, the
Commander-in-Cilief Of the Grand Army
OF the Republic. Logan at once promul-
gated All order, establishing May 80 as
decoration Day" to all the Grand ARMY
post in the United States. 1t bore this
name until 1884, when, by a resolution OF
u. A. h. Encampment it was changed to
Memorial Day.
The first Instance when the graves
were decorated in this country is said to
have been in Mississippi in 1864, while the
war was still in progress.
In 1865 James Redpath organized a
procession at Charleston, s. c., OF white
and coiored soldiels, two Thousand child
rem and several Thousand citizens, all OF
whom carried flowers, which they placed
Oh the UnlnOn graves i'll the vicinity.
The first time the custom was observed
IN amy Northern State is believed to have
been at Waterloo, n. Y, in 1866, when
General Murray escorted the veterans OF
his post out to the Cemetery and decorated
the groves. In 1867 L. q. Campbell, of
CllIclnati, Quartermaster-Geuer OF the
Ii. A. r., marched his post out to the
graves and put wreaths on them.
1t WAS the first thought that the custom
OF decorating the graves might prolong the
bitter memories of the Civil War, but it
has proved to have quite the opposite
effect. Away back in 1868 at one OF the
cemeteries Post l9 was decorating the
graves. While the men were thus enga-
sed it was suggested that a number of
Confederate graves OF prisoners should
also he decorated. This was resented by
a few, and al effort WAS made to censure
the post, which was afterwards dropped.
Since this time on several occasions Union
and Confederate veterans have decorated
graves together.
Mathles, who was the first to suggest the
the idea oil Memorial Day, was cummiss-
loned by President Lincoln to organize a
regiment; but did even better, and raised
a brigade. lie served with houor during
the war, but at the end of it was broken
i'll health and unable to earn his bread
He was too proud to let his condition be
known, and almost starved before a friend
discovered his dire poverty. Soon after
this lie died and was buried by charitable
friends.
The original document naming Memoir
ial Day written by General Chapman and
Issued by General Logan, is now one OF
the most carefully cherished treasures in
the archives OF The u. A. X.

Progress Or Regress

Address to Graduates by Rev. f. A. Miller.
COMMENCEMENT. 1t is and ought to be
the actual commencement OF larger things
for these people of the class OF 1912.
The end of education is complete life.
We have the exact phrase, ito prepare
us tor complete living" from Herbert
Spencer. Can you amend that definition?
Surely the functions OF the higher institu-
ton OF learning is. by all the complex in
huence OF its life, to turn out men and
women OF disciplined mind, balanced
judgment and high character. Educa-
ton Is ability to enter into all values
with appreciation aud conviction. No
one is truly educated the better part of
whose being is left to prejudice and Ca
price. The laws of right and wrong are
vital facts and no life dare omit a broad
knowledge OF them and an efficient motive
ior their application.
There Is greater reason for the educa-
tlon OF conscience Than for the education
OF the hand. A MAI can be honest and
yet be ignorant OF political economy; he
may be an expert economist and vet a
thief. He may be pure and know moth
ing of chemistry; he may be a master
chemist and yet a villain. Give MS the
arts and sciences, let specialization and
equipment be u~nbonnded, but allow no
one to put to sea with his star blotted out
and a compass which does not swing
true.
He who deprives young people of their
opportunity for a higher education robs
them OF their most sacred rights. To de-
stroy the high school would be to turn
back the hands upon the dial of history
centuries; to support it is to set free a vi
tillzing energy in every field OF human
endea Vor.
The greatest asset of any school is its
faculty. What is its personal? is a proper
question for every one vitality interested
in education to ask. These are the I'M
questionable years of our children. How
are they being impressed? Youth of
their age need the doctor rather than the
drug store, the school master rather thar
the library, direction rather than unlimit-
ed liberty. Is 1t not important that
competent individuals do the directing?
Are we there to submit to the Judgment
OF those who can lay no honest claim to
being competent? In other words, is Penns
Grove to take a backward or forward
step?
l believe in the character, motive and
enc OF euucaIlOn. manhood and woman
hood are the proper objects of quest for
the high school and college students.
This doctrine ought to be so well 'eetab.
lished as to require no emphasis. When
it is established it will help answer the
prayer of a needy world voiced by j. G.
Holland:
"God give us men! A time like this de.
mands
Strong minds, great hearts, true faith
and ready hands;
Men whom the lust of office does no
kill,
Men whom the spoils of office canno
buy;
Men who possess opinions and a will,
Mel who have honor, who will not lie,
Men who can stand before a demagogue,
Aud damn his treacherons hatterie
without %winking!
Tall men, sun-crOwned, who live abov,
the fog
In public duty and in private think
ing"
Ii God cannot answer this prayer thru
our high schools, colleges and universe
ties, where shall we look for all answer
