The priest of the Servian Orthodox
church at Wilmerding, Pa, made a
Memorial day address In the town
cemetery last spring. At the close of
his speech in Servian he said in Eng
lish:
Il deem 1t my holiest duty to kiss
this consecrated ground upon which
your heroic ancestors shed their blood,
and in which their bones are laid to
rest. deem it my Christian duty to
offer God a prayer for the repose of
their souls. just as if they were my
own blood"
Then he kneeled, kissed the ground
and offered prayer for the repose
of those who died for their father
land. When he arose he said: GLORY
to the dead soldiers, and prosperity
to the American people"
The incident was related by Peter
Roberts, director of the immigration
work for the Y. M. G. A., to a group
of Kansas City meu at the association
rooms yesterday. 1t emphasizes once
