MEMORIAL DAY.
(BY DIR. Frank Crane !

(By Df. FRANK crane
In the month of May we have set
the Festival of the Blessed Dead Then
we consciously, ritually, and of defin-
tie purpose, go out to their house, the
house of cool walls and rounded
green roof, and take them messages Of
lilacs, speak to them in roses.
The sacredest joy is in the heart of
sorrow. We unlock the closed door,
and they that have passed through
come back to walk and talk with us
to Emmaaus.
And returning they are TRANSPORTED.
All the pettiness and commences
has dropped from them. Something
has ennobled them. And our thoughts
are ennobled as they entertain them.
The dead are the jewellers of the
infinite. The infinite clings to their
garments when they revisit us. They
shed supernatural beauty. Mingling
with them we realize that we ourselves
are immortal; our destiny, too, runs
beyond the stars; while we are made
of the dust of the ground, there is in
us also the breath of heaven, about
even us there is some high dignity of
the galaxies, somewhat eternal, vast,
divine.
Let our procession then move to
the camp of the dead, where lie hopes
once as bright as ours, ambitions as
burning, loves as tender, longings as
ardent, sins as scarlet as ours; for
the blessed dead are part of our life,
as the unborn are part of it. Human
ity itself is but a long procession
vending from mystery to mystery,
and life is but thoughtful interval.
Remember the dead, and you can
not be wholly dead, and the harsh and
coarse elements in you wither. Re-
member the dead, and some worthier
meaning shall enrich your purpose.
Remember the dead, not weakly and
with depression, not in hopelessness
and despair, but with what self-ded-
ication you are capable of, making of
your remembrance a high communion,
and you shall go on to make of your
life a finer fabric.
Over the sky of Memorial day is
shed peculiar glow, more gracious
and twilight radiance than that of any
other day, for there shines
That light that never was on sea or
shore,
The conservation and the poets
dream.

"GENOOINE" SNAKE STORY.
CassYiIIe Record Opens Season With
A WhOpper.-A Broken Rib.

Talk about snakes! Charles Pierce,
living below Cassville, was attracted
by the squealing of a rabbit Friday,
and following the direction of the
noise he came across a large bull
snake in the act of making meal OF
little bunny. He dispatched the rep
tile with a club, and an actual meas
urement showed it to be feet, 4 in.
in length and about inches in diam
eter.
Frank Weber is laid up with a
cracked rib. While working on the
section, the crew lifted the hand-car
from the tracks and the car started
sliding down the embankment. In his
endeavor to hold it Frank was caught
between the car and a fence post with
the result above stated.

Officers and Enlisted Men Hear of His Leaving With
 Great Regret.

After 19 years active service in the Connecticut National Guard, Major Louis J. Hermann of Stratford has been relieved from active service at his own request and transferred to the reserve list of the Connecticut Coast Artillery corps. The order re- lieving Major Hermann from active duty was published from the adjutant- generals office at Hartford today and will be read with regret by every off, cer and all the enlisted men of the corps to whom Major Hermann was known.
 A desire to devote more time to his business and to his family are the req sons for the majors request for re- tirement. Several months ago he con templated the same action but his brother officers in the corps prevailed on him to remain in the service. It had been supposed that having recon Sidered his decision he would remain in the Coast Artillery service and the news of his voluntary retirement will come as a complete surprise to his many friends in the corps.
 Major Hermann is superintendent of the comm ercia1 department of the in personal direction of the mauu- military ammuriitionl Which is made by the company.
 Today he said that he had asked for retirement at this time in order to give his successor an opportunity to become acquainted with the work.
