dead, and in remembrance Of the part
played by the living in that terrible
conflict of half century ago, Dal-
las, in common with a grateful peo-
sple throughout this united nation,
appropriately observed Memorial day
on Saturday last. The choicest OF
spring bloom was strewn upon the
simple graves of departed veterans
in the early morning, and later sturdy
present day nation defenders formed
an escort of honor for the men they
might hope to emulate, but can never
hope to surpass in fortitude and self
abnegation, as they lead a procession
through the principal streets to the
music of the band.
The parade left the armory at the
designated hour in the following or
der; Marshal of the Day Fenton,
Dallas band; o. N. G. in blue uni
forms; Grand Army of the Repub-
lie; families of veterans in automo-
biles; school children in eleven di-

Many of the business houses of the

while flags were at half-mast in diff
ferent parts of the city. Business
was suspended throughout the morn
ing. The weather was ideal, and
there were many visitors from the sur

from abroad. Withal it was a most
creditable display of genuine patriot
ism.
At the High School.
Mr.. Glen Holman spoke before the
High school last Friday afternoon in
behalf of the G.. A. R., reviewing con-
ditions in 1861 and eulogizing the de-
votion and loyalty of the boys in
blue. He praised the bravery of the
Southern soldiers and said that today
these men Of the South were as loyal
to the old flag as the people of the
north.
Mr.. Holman avered that the war of
1861 began in 1919, when twenty ne
groes were sold as slaves by a mer-
chant Of New York to some settlers
in Virginia. Those who listened to
this address were pleased, and espec-
tally pleasing was the eulogy of Abra-
ham Lincoln.

"Here in this lowly bed, under the

them both. T"
