Dear n. b. Friends:
Again the day is at hand on which the
little flags and the fragrant blossoms
silently tell the story OF remembrance OF
brave deeds done, OF loyal service when
the Union was in peril, and Of . grateful
people who for . half century have not
forgotten the soldiers OF the Civil war.
Memorial day. with its impressive SER
vices, presents lesson in patriotism, and
the hope Of its continued observance rests
with each successive generation. The
children look forward to it from year to
year, and we can only trust that the in
fiuence il exerts upon their minds, may be
so firm and so lasting that they may per-
petuate the services OF what was formerly
more generally called Decoration DAY.

MARBLES a few snatches OF melody
under her breath as she kicks her
way around the stage. Miss Kauf-
man, CARRIED in a striped suit built
for summer, does q great many diffi-
cult stunts with her bicycle, scorn-
ing TO allow more than one wheel
to touch the stage most OF the time.
Then appear the Bison four, cloth
ed as a waiter, a tramp, a policeman
and an Italian. After considerable
slap-stick, they settle down to their
business. which is that Of q quartet.
Their long suit Is not singing, but
they can be funny. and that Is the
main object In the mind OF the audi
ence.
The four Romanos, young women
who are active and graceful, present
a dancing number which includes
about every kind Of terpsichorean
stunt from posturing and whirling to
toe dancing. One OF them sings Q
song In language that most Of the
house doesn't know. but that doesn't
make any difference.
