DECORATION DAY

Last Saturday is a day long to
be remembered by the old sol.
diers and citizens of Cheyenne
Wells
The day was an ideal one. and
very befittingly observed, it be-
ing Memorial or more commonly
called Decoration Day. Nearly
every business and residence
house in the town being decora-
ted with flags and bunting in
honor of the old soldiers. At
noon the old soldiers were taken
to the residence of Mayor, Chas.
Hargleroad, where a sumptuous
dinner had been prepared for
them. Promptly at 2 O'Clock the
automobiles and carriages assem-
bled at the Court House, where
the Cheyenne Wells Band played
several appropriate pieces. after
which the procession fell into
line and proceeded to the ceme-
terry. On arriving there the old
soldiers and the eight little flow
er girls marched to the center of
the cemetery and stood at, atten-
ton during the following pro-
gram:
Recitation, Comrade Howard,
of Arapahoe; prayer, Rev, d. M.
Scott, Cheyenne Wells: duet,
Gene with the earliest blos-
SONS, by Mrs, T. E. Hickman
and Mrs. L. w. Wells; quartette
Noble Souls" by Mrs. Booth.
Mrs. Quinn, Messrs. Akerly and
Booth; song LET Them Rest"
by eight little girls; solo, 'Name-
less Unknown" by James Curtis.
Next was the decoration of the
graves of the old soldiers, fol-
lowed by the decoration Of the
only member of the M. w. A.
Thus ended the program of the
day, and it was the best ever
carried out in Cheyenne Wells,
and the citizens of Cheyenne
Wells should feel proud that they
had shown so much honor and
respect to the memory Of those
who fought SO gallantly for our
country. In the evening stories
of camplife were told and enacted
by different ones at the school
house. Take it IN all and it was
one Of the grandest affairs ever
beheld in Cheyenne Wells.
