Selectman Raymond J. Jodoin to Pro- vide Flags for Soldiers Graves Workman njured-Thursday Half Holidays for the Summer.

It is the custom to decorate each yeaE with flags the graves of the de- parted heroes of the great national war of fifty years ago, and the mem bers of the G. A. R. have been supplying the flags heretofore Now the number of veterans has decreased to such an extent that if the mem bers of the association had to fur nish the flags this year, the expense would be very great and as many of them are well along in years now and not able to work they could not afford it.
 So it has been suggested that each town buy the flags for the graves, and First SeIectman Raymond J. Jodoin i has generously offered to purchase flags to decorate the graves of all the veterans in the town of Sprague. There are thirty-siX graves to receive flags in this town next Friday.
