over the low fence inclosing a cot

did not know.

HOW BOY SCOUTS
WILL COOPERATE.
With Sons of Veterans in Hartford on
Memorial Day.

In a letter to The Hartford Times,
Henry E. Gage, secretary of the joint
Memorial day committee in that city,
explains the part tina THE Boy Scouts
are to play in the observance of the
day. His letter is called out by the
following item.
Superseded.
up in Hartford, a considerable
amount of the work of decorating
the veterans graves Memorial day
will be done by Boy Scouts. There
can be no question but what they
will do the work well. but where
are the Sons of Veterans"
The above from The Norwich Bull
letin has been copied extensively
throughout the state and a state
ment of the facts in the case may
make clear the conditions in Hart
ford regarding the part to be taken
by the Boy Scouts this year. There
be decorated on Memorial day. OF
this number 1000 will be deco
rated in the morning by members of
the Grand Army, Sons of Veterans
and Spanish American War Veter-
ans.
In the afternoon parade to Spring
Grove cemetery it has been the GUS
tom to have carried on trucks some
$50 baskets of flowers to be placed
upon the veterans graves in that
cemetery by the sons or veterans
and Spanish American War Veter-
ans. This year the Boy Scouts have
offered their services on Memorial
day from sunrise to sunset.
The committee appreciates the
fine spirit which prompted this Of
fer, and decided that the boys should
be allowed to carry the baskets,
before mentioned, in the parade,
ard upon arriving at the cemetery
they should place these $50 baskets,
under the direction of the commit
tee, upon the graves in three sections
of that cemetery.
One of the cardinal principles of
the Sons of Veterans is to sacredly
observe all national holidays, espe-
cially Memorial day. and to persuade
others from the giving over OF that
day to games, festivities and sports
In interesting the Boy Scouts in
the work of Memorial day they feel
that they are teaching patriotism
and that the boys OF today will,
when they are the men of tomorrow,
remember Memorial day and keep it
sacred to the memory of those who
died in defense of their country.
1 can assure The Norwich Bulle-
tin that the Sons of Veterans are
today better equipped than ever to
perform the duties assigned them
and that their sphere of usefulness
is becoming larger each year, as the
ranks of the Grand Army grow
smaller.
