of the government that war secrets

they are willing and can and do keep
those secrets. This was illustrated
in the movements of the French COM

a AND FLOWERS

Annual Observance Of Memorial Day
Occurs in Pierre.
Indictment weather marred the OBJ
servance of Memorial Day in Pierre,
Wednesday. In the morning exercises
we're held at the cemeteries where
wreaths YER placed on the graves.
The G.. A. r. ritual was read and a
salute fred by a detachment of Co. A,
Flowers were strewn on the Missouri
river in honor of the memory of the
sailors dead. Members of the local fire
company seen that the graves of their
comrades. who are sleeping the years
away, were garlanded with flowers.
Pierre, and nearly every other city
and town made preparation for the OBJ.
servance Of Memorial Day and in most
instances the preparations were more
elaborate than in recent years, this be-
cause the nation is just entered on a
war more terrible, if that be possible,
than the one for the victims of which
the nation mourned yesterday, because
the people are again faced by a force
more terrible, more relentless than was
faced by the men of the north when
they battled with the men of the south.
Our people, the young people, the
people who have grown to understand
ing since that conflict on southern bat
tle6elds, studied we'll what Memorial
observance means. 1t mean more
than reverence to the men who fell or
to the men who have since since given
up life's journey. 1t should mean u
reverence for the cause for which they
fought-liberty; it should mean that
each American citizen should c~onsecrate
himself to the cause for which they
fought, a cause which is now being
fought for on much broader grounds.
If this true meaning is had, if the
whole people fully grasp it this Memo
rial Day was more sincerely observed
than has anyin the past and the months
following will give evidence of it in
greatly increased patriotic enthusiasm
and fervor for the American principles
of liberty for all.
The grand parade occurred at 2o'clock
