gested the "armfuls of flowers" was
not forgotten by John Redpath. AS he
went about his work during the next
few days he thought Of 1t often. and
finally a beautiful plan grew in his
mind.
He would set apart a day when all
the graves In the soldiers cemetery
would be decorated with flags and
flowers.
At that time Charleston was still un-
der military rule and was governed by
Colonel Woodford Of the Union army.
John Redpath went to Colonel Wood
ford and told him about the plan, ask
ing him to appoint the day a military
and civil holiday. The date decided
upon for the decoration was May /,
and on that day over 10000 men,
women and children were present at
memorial service. and then marched
to the cemetery, where the children
dropped flowers on the graves while
everyone sang patriotic songs.
Such was the first Decoration day.
From that time on the custom Of
decorating all the graves of the sol
diers on one day grew TO be popular
The custom OF decorating the graves
Of the dead soldiers did much to wipe
away the bitterness felt between the
people of the North and South. Fran
els Miles Finch expressed just such
thought in his Decoration day poem
d, q .I, In n
"The Blue and the Gray"
John Redpath lived TO be an old
man, and saw the custom that he
founded become one of the most pleas
ing and popular holidays. Later in
life he founded the Redpath Chautau-
qua bureau, which is still popular and
has been the means Of giving enter
tainment and education to thousands
and thousands of people.-Utica Globe.

Washington.-Ban of the coun-

a conference with the federal reserve
board, pledged themselves to help the
board in drive on high prices and
TO aid in efforts at deflation.
Specifically, the bankers agreed un-
reservedly to support the boards new
policy in discouraging %habitual and
unnecessary borrowings" and to seek
curtailment of long standing, non
essential loans" as an initial step to-
ward ending the era of high prices and
speculation.
Governor Harding set forth the
boards policy in a speech designed to
clarity the general situation and to
explain the governments views. He
warned Of impending dangers in the
cycle of continued borrowings and
speculation and appealed to bankers
and public alike TO be conservative in
its demands for banking credit.
1T is evident" Mr. Harding said,
that the country cannot continue to
advance prices and wages, to curtail

Shrill rang the ffes. the bugles blared.
And beneath a cloudless heaven
Twinkled a thousand bayonets;
And the swords were thirty-seven.
And of the thousand bayonets
Two hundred march today;
Hundreds lie in Virginian swamps
And hundreds in Maryland clay;
And other hundreds. less happily, drag
Their shattered limbs around
And envy the deep. calm. blessed sleep
OF the battlefeld's holy ground.
AS for us-one night week ago
Our remnant, just eleven,
Gathered around a banqueting board
With seats for thirty-seven;
There were two limped in on crutches
And two had each but hand
To pour the wine and raise the cup
AS we toasted "Our Flag and Land!'
And the room seemed filled with wills
pers
AS we looked at the vacant seats.
And with choking threats we pushed
aside
The rich but untasted meats.
Then in silence we brimmed our glasses
And rose up-just eleven.
And bowed as we drank to the loved and
the dead
who had made us thirty-sevenl

ALL OF FAMILY NOT THERE
How Many of Spaniard's Daughters
Were Missing Had TO Be Left to
the Imagination.

In Spain, and particularly In the
province of Andalusia, families are so
large that even Theodore Roosevelt
would have been appalled,.
Hamilton Fyfe, The well-known
writer, was touring Andalusia on
horseback one winter and spent the
night In a fonda near Los Boliches.
At dinner over his hominy soup, Mr..
Fyfe was amazed to see the multitude
Of daughters that the innkeeper pos
seSsed.
'You have fine, very fine fam
lily of daughters there" he said.
"Ah, senor," said the innkeeper,
we've been very unfortunate with
our daughters. During a 1917 terral,
the chimney fell in and killed all but
eleven of them"
