The following published statement is
presumably true: In the early spring
of 1867 Mr.. and Mrs. Henry S. KIM
ball. of West Philadelphia, Pa, were
visiting several points in the South.
| Mrs. Kimball, upon returning to Phila-
delphia wrote to General Logan, an
old friend, stating that in her visit
to the South she had particularly
noticed the southern women decorat-
! ing the graves of their dead. fallen in
battle and suggesting to him that, AS
the commander in chief of the Grand
Army of the Republic he should have
our heroic soldiers whose lonely graves
are many unmarked. remembered in
| the same beautiful way General
Logan quickly and heartily approved
Mrs. Kimballs suggestion, informing
her by letter that he felt that such
touching tribute to his dead COM
rades would undoubtedly meet with
general favor" General Logan fire.
quently and explicitly, in public and in
private, gave Mrs. Kimball credit for
the suggestion in her letter.
In view of these statements if a
monument is created it would seem fit
ting that it should contain these
names, instead of bearing the name-
plate Unknown:
ANDREW II. Fl. DAWSON.
MRS. HENRY s. KIN1BALL.
JOHN A. LOGAN.
The day is not far distant when the
calling of the Grand Army of the Re-
public roll will find no member to an
swer present. There are now 1868
posts and 10000 members. The 1918
death rate was more than 1000 a
month. But affiliated organizations
will preserve the observance of Me-
mortal day.
Then there is the Spanish-American
war-and its heroic American dead and
| its national organization
And now there is the Great War
and its heroic American dead and its
coming organization of veterans
1t is in every respect fitting that
Memorial day this year and hence
forth should also commemorate the
heroic Americans who died in the
Great War. For Memorial day there
is an inspiring future.
Memorial day may even become an
allied holiday.

is to go on in future years the time
will come when Its direction must be
assumed by organizations which did
not participate in the Civil war. 1t
is true that to a large share of our

need not be barred; but the population
should give an hour or two OF the

Unknown Considerable controversy
in recent years has appeared in rela-
ton to the author of the suggestion,
and much of ii has found Judgment in
the library of the war department at
Washington"
Memorial day, May 80, though wide
iy observed as a national holiday. is
such by virtue of state laws and gen.
eral custom and not because of act
of congress. Congress has practically
passed no laws creating holidays for
the whole country. 1t has designated
the second Sunday in May as Moth
ers' day. President Wilson, by proc
lamation May 80, 1915, requested that
June IA be observed as Flag day. But
national holidays like July Fourth and
New Years day have not been enacted
by congress.
There is no controversy over the
fact that Memorial day was first so
designated in general orders to men,
bers Of the Grand Army Of the Re-
public in 1868 by Gen. John A. Logan,
then its commander In chief. This
order Is as follows. as preserved in

81. The Both day of May, 1868, is
designated for the purpose of strewing
with flowers or otherwise decorating
the graves of comrades who died In
defense of their country during the
late rebellion and whose bodies now
lie in almost every city. village and
hamlet churchyard in the land In
this observance no form of ceremony
Is prescribed but posts and comrades
will in their own way arrange such
fitting services and testimonials of re-
spect as circumstances may permit.
1--WE are organized, comrades. as our
regulations tell us, for the purpose,
among other things, of preserving and
strengthening those kind and fraternal
feelings which have bound together
the soldiers, sailors and marines who
united to suppress the late rebellion
What can aid more to assure this re-
suit than cherishing tenderly the mem
DRY of our heroic dead, who made their
breasts barricade between our coun-
try and its foes? Their soldier lives
were the reveille of freedom to race
In chains and their deaths the tattoo
of rebellious tyranny in arms We
should guard their graves with sacred
vigilance. All that the consecrated
wealth and taste of the nation can add
to the adornment and security is but a
fitting tribute to the memory of her
slain defenders. Let no wanton foot
tread rudely on such hallowed grounds.
Let pleasant paths invite the coming
and going of reverent visitors and fond
mourners Let no vandalism of avarice
or neglect, no ravages of time testify

General Logan's general order"
the first Memorial day in seventeen
states Maine in 1874 made Memorial
day legal holiday. Massachusetts
did the same in 1881. Other states
followed Now Memorial day (May
30) is legal holiday in most of the
northern states. Alabama, Georgia
Florida and Mississippi observe April
90 and North and South Carolina
May 10.
So the origin of the observance of
Memorial day on May 80 Is settled
beyond question.
But where did the idea that lies
back of the observance of Memorial
day originate? Here indeed is room
for controversy.
In the first place there We're deco
rations of Civil war graves previous
to 1868 in various localities of the
North and South. These We're mostly
informal. The earliest date back to
the days of war itself and were merely
local observances.
October 6, 1866, Col. Andrew Fl. H.
Dawson, who had fought on the Con-
federate side, in the Academy of
Music, Brooklyn. addressed 1000 peo-
pie and said in part:
LET the North and the South meet
as friends. Let them share common
tiers of the North and the daughters
of the South meet with their floral Of
ferings annually, on some great me-
mortal day, on the fields where our
heroes sleep their last sleep, and let
their tears fall together upon the
lowly pillows of their loved and lost
Let them kneel together there, and let
their prayers for the welfare of our
common country rise, as 1t were, on
the wings of the same breath. and soar
to heaven. Angels will be waiting at
the portals of the skies to bear them
