| Memorial Day is not merely holiday
IN the modern acceptation of the word,
1t realized its chronological significance
as a holy day. 1t is our All Saint
Day. sacred to the memory of the
IRloritied dead who consecrated them
selves to their country, were baptized
in blood, were beatified and canonized
as martyrs for the right. 1t Is well
that, in the hurry and press of our
times, when the higher soul within US
| is choked and stiled by the more sor-
Ibid cares of the hour, by the selfish
struggi, tor place and self, we should
pause for d period to dwell upon the
lmemory of the illustrious dead who
gave their lives for their country, and
40 typas that higher and truer
americanism which lies within us still,
Tdormant and latent indeed, yet ready
to spring again to the surface when
ever the needs of the country issue
new call to arms. 1t is well that we
should do them honor which honors
ourselves in the doing.
Our boys and girls in our schools
should know great deal about our
American wars. especially the Revolu-
ton, Eighteen and Twelve, and the
Civil War. The more they know about
them, all of which were necessary i'll
order that we might have the best of
all governments, the more they will
know what their county cost in human
life, in treasure and sacrifices, and the
more they will appreciate what soldiers
and sailors have done for them the
more, 600, they appreciate that ser
vice, the sincerer will be their love for
the country thus preserved for them.
and its beautiful flag.
"Our martyred dead:
On each low bed,
Green be the chaplet,
Fresh the roses:
Oh, lightly rest
On each calm breast
The turf where each
In peace reposes.
