Unveiiing

Ouuudy dlICl HOOH w oO CiiN "
casion of the unveiling of a beau
tiful monument to Francis Her.
ron, young Winslow boy who
died last winter while in the SER
vice of his country. Francis was
the only WinsloW boy who gave
his life to his country and who is
buried in the local cemetery.
The ceremony was a very solemn
rite and was under the direct
supervision of the Frank Perkins
Post of the American Legion, as
sisted by the churches, the num-
erous organizations in town and
the Indian band.
The procession was formed on
End street and proceeded to the
cemetery in the following order:
Indian band, firing squad and
men in uniform from the Frank
Perkins Post, followed by num-
erous automobiles occupied by
citizens. Arriving at the grave
Rev. Barkley of the Baptist
church read a brief history of
Mr.. Herron's life, and stated the
purpose of the ceremony. The
band then played The S ar
Spangled Banner, and then Rev.
O. M. Andrews of the Methodist
church delivered the oration in a
forceful and masterful manner
as only polished orator can;
the firing squad then fired three
volleys over the grave and taps
was sounded, which completed
the ceremony.
The complete text of Rev. An
drews' address was as follows:
Ladies and G entlemen, fellow
citizens and citizen-soldiers. In
the palmy days of Greece when
her power reached to Egypt and
her sails plowed the water of
foreign seas, her citizens found
diversion in the Olympian games.
Herodotus visited on a certain
occasion the play ground of this
cultured nation and being recog-
nized, a multitude of citizens
bore him on their shoulders
around the arena, saying Let
us honor the man who wrote our
history" Today we meet here
in this sacred enclosure to honor
the man who helped to make our
history. This service is sacred
to Winslow's heroes d e "a d.
Around this monument we love-
ingly entwine our love. 1t is a
service wherein we mingle tears
with memory. We are here to
pay to noble dust the tribuit it
has earned. How swiftly the
shuttle of the years weaves the
web and Woof of life. 1t is a
Gods blessings that we forget
some things, but we should never
forget those who gave the full
measure of life that this nation
might live. Comrade Heron did
not cross the water but he laid
his offering as truly on the altar
of sacrifice as though he had fall
len on the field of conflict. There
blooms in the conservatory of
America no fairer flower than
gratitude, it's fragrance per-
fumes this closing day and gives
to this service a sweetness that
shall not soon depart. You, my
fellow citizens, have decreed that
though his body mingle with the
earth it shall not sleep in an un-
marked grave. Times irreverent
and relentless hand will crumble
this stone into sand; you and |
will lie down in the sepulcher of
the ages; but this nation will live
because such as he jeordized

been this lad and gone to sleep
in the dust of America, followed

der the banner of the free-the

day our battle flags are furled,
our arms are stacked, and our
soldiers returned to the hearth

He died for liberty; he died for

The Athenians raised monu-
ment to keep, and placed a slave
on the pedestal, that men might
know that the way to honor was
open to all. Were | a sculptor
gifted with the Athenian art, |

from the everlasting hills of Ari-
zona and from it | would carve
an American soldier, with one
hand shading his eyes as he looks
across the waters of the world

would linger for a moment on

over this and every other such

Soldier Heron was one of the
actors in the worlds greatest
drama. The illustrious sacrifice
he made covers him with imper-
ishable honor, while this monu-
ment will stand conspicuous,
among the silence of this tenne-
ment of clay. A reverent spirit
| demands that we ever admire the
bravery, the fortitude, the per-
severence and sacrifice made by
such brave men. He is gone.

they would be put out Of business.
The POLITICAL situation over here re-

''The veil which has hidden VIM Hohenzollern's

We're right glad that vail is lifted, for it re-

like this: .s..s .-ss b.. ,.
At daylight, you put some $4-the-1O0 wheat
scraps into some apparently barren hens whom
you've boarded for six months, knowing that if
you ever do get eggs they'll bring in 30 cents the
dozen, with the final consumer GUESSING you for
even that price. The rest of the morning you
spend humdrumly in blowing for summer wheat,
knowing that a lot of miscellaneous bread-riot-
ers will cuss you for extortion. Your afternoon
diversion consists in busting the potato vines with
Paris green, knowing that what potatoes the bugs
don't get will yield 80 cents the bushel, if nobody
else raises any. In the cleaning you sit down
in pleasant retirement and milk the cows for the
second time during your humdrum day, knowing
that lot of Elgin gents who do frequent society

WITH THE EDITORS
THE s0LDIER AND UNEMPLOYMENT

The present industrial situation in the United
States has given rise along with other things,
to discussion remarkable alike for contradictions
in alleged Statements of fact and for conflicting
opinions based upon those statements: It's an
nounced, on the one hand, that unemployment is
rapidly increasing in many of the populous Sec
tons CT the country that the influx of discharged
soldiers is placing labor in the market faster than
employers can provide for it, and that, should
rehabilitation continue at the present rate, dis
astrous consequences must ensue. A recent report
had it that 100000 discharged soldiers were idly
walking the streets of New York. There have
lately been parades Of unemployed veterans in
several American Cities On the other hand, the
heads of the principal industries OF the country,
Judge Ebert H. Gary, chairman of the board
of directors of the United States steel corporation
being the latest to declare himself on the subject,
assure the country that there is no reason for
pessimism because business, already rapidly re-
adjusting itself to peace conditions, will soon de-
mand all the help available. A.. =
The truth about the matter seems to be that
all that is pressingly required is the making OF
provision for temporary employment of the home
coming egions, and many thoughtful people en-
terrain the hope that the temporary arrangements
may in majority of cases, be such as to lead
tens of thousands of workers into vacations which
will insure them permanently against the sharp
industrial competition of the congested centers
There is opposition, and very pronounced OPPOSE
ton, in some quarters, to further Rehabilitation
until the present slack shall have been taken up;
on the other hand, there is something like clamor
in other quarters for the immediate discharge
of men no longer needed by the government for
active military service.
On the face of things, there is reason for the
seeming contradictions and excuse for the SEEM
ing conflicts in news and opinion. While it is true
that the future is full of promise for every kind
of labor, it is also true that large percentage
Of the returned soldiers are unable, in many parts
of the country, to find any employment at all,
while great numbers of those who are offered work
find it to be of grade, or several grades, below
that which they gave up in order to respond to
the nations call.
There should be no idle men in the United
States, civilian or military; there is work in sight
for all, whether the workers shall be employed
individually as citizens in units soldiers. And
it lies withcongress to say how soon the greatest
constructive era thus far in the history Of the
United States shall begin Christian Science
