OBSERVATION"
By Our Man About Town

Just where or how the month
of May derived it's name is not
easily determined. What is re-
earded as authority, however,
says the name originated from
the word Mairoes, the senate in
the original constitution of
Rome. The old version that May
was named in honor Of Maia,
mother of Hermes, is now said
to be erroneous and was merely
surmised because of similarity
of the two names.
With the exception of Decora-
ton Day, on the Both, the month
is without a holiday or a day
given special Importance either
by tradition or history. Up until
half a century ago, the opening
day of the month was almost uni
versally observed as MAY Day."
when outdoor festivals were held
and when a May pole was the
central attraction. On the even
ing before May 1st, baskets of
flowers were distributed from
friend to friend, the distribution
generally being.secret. The bas-
kets were left on the door step
after night had fallen.
There are different versions of
the origion of Decoration Day.
Traditions has it that a German
soldier who, coming to this coun-
try at the time the Civil War
broke out, enlisted. After the
war was over he remarked that
in Germany it was customary to
scatter flowers on the graves of
soldiers once a year. This is
supposed to be the origin of
Decoration Day. In May, 1868,
Adj. Gen. M. P. Shipman sug-
gested this custom to Gen Lo-
gan of the G. A. r. who immedi-
ately issued an order in which
he named the Both day of May,
1868-"For the purpose of strew-
ing with flowers or otherwise
decorating the graves of com
rades who died in defense of their
country and whose bodies lie in
almost every city, village, OF
hamlet churchyard in the land
