Unknown Considerable controversy
in recent years has appeared In rela-
ton to the author of the suggestion,
and much of it has found lOdgment In
the library of the war department at
Washington"
Memorial day, May 80, though wide
~ observed as a national holiday, is
such by virtue of state laws and gen.
eral custom and not because of net
Of congress. Congress has practically
passed no laws creating holidays for
the whole country. It has designated
the second Sunday in May as Moth
ers' day. PRESIDENT Wilson, by proc
lamation May 30, 1916, 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 mem.
bers of the Grand Army Of the Re-
public in 1868 by Gen. John A. Logan,
then it's commander in chief. This
order Is as follows, as preserved in
the G. A. II. headquarters In Phila-
delphia:

Republic, Adjutant Generals Office,

II. The 3Oth 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 comrndes

fitting services and testimonials Of re-
spect as circumstances may permit.

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
s,sin defenders. Let no wanton foot

visiting several points in the South.
Mrs. Kimball, upon returning to Phila-

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
q 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

ting that 1t should contain these
names, instead of bearing the name

will preserve the observance Of Me-

Then there is the Spanish-American

its national organization.
And now there is the Great War
