Health Certificate Before
Marriage, Urged.

Topeka, Kans., June 3.-Pro-
bate judges of Kansas will assist
the congregational ministers of
the state in trying to get the
next Kansas legislature to adopt
a law requiring health certifi-
Gates before marriage license
will be granted. Rev. Chas. M.
Sheldon announced sometime
ago that he would never again
perform a marriage ceremony
unless the bride and groom had
health certificates.
At meeting of the Congre-
gational conference at Great
Bend two weeks ago, all minis
ters of the church adopted res
olution making it part of the
rules of the church that no mar
riages would be performed un-
less the health certificate was
provided.
The probate judges have a
bill that will be presented to the
next legislature making health
certificates legal requirement
so that the marriage of unfit per-
sons will be prevented. Hutch

elegant home. Here the meet
ing was called to order by Presi-

Memorial Day

Thursday last, was the day
upon which we pay respect to
the surviving Veterans of the
Civil War, and cover with flow
ers the graves of their departed
comrades.
From the time of the sunrise
salute until the close of the day
all moved off in perfect order.
At 1000 a. m. the parade, led
by the Meade Band started for
the cen etery, where short SER
vices was held, the graves deco
rated, and salute by the firing
squad given.
At lis p. m. all the business
houses closed and everyone went
to the opera house, where an ex-
cellent program, consisting OF
band music, singing, recitations,
exercises by the children, and
and address by Hon. Otis Hun
gate was rendered.
The Veterans of the Civil War
were given seat of honor upon
the beautifully decorated stage.
There we're not many in attend
ance, fewer perhaps than at any
previous Memorial Exercises,
and some faces which were pres
ent last year, have since passed
to the Great Beyond, bearing evi-
dence that
"Day by day their ranks are
thinning,
One by one they disappear,
And at each succeeding roll call,
Fewer voices answer, Here"
