and was a worker for prohibition at
time when it was not popular to be

passed from earth. But the good that
she has done in her quiet, kindly, and
unsel6sh way will live after her and
be her everlasting great reward

the celebration of Memorial Day, hence
the parade to the cemetery by school
children and citizens had to be aban-
doned. But in spite of threatening
clouds, large number of people made
their way to the cemetery where the
exercises of the forenoon were held.
After selection had been played by
the Warren Battalion Band, Rev. V. P.
Mitchell offered the invocation. Then
followed music by the Warren Juvenile
Band. Rev. A. T. Tollevs made a fine
speech in which he paid eloquent trib-
ute to the heroes who have sacrificed
their lives in order that we may enjoy
freedom and democracy. Three volleys
were fired by firing squad and taps
were sounded, after which followed the
benedictiOn and some more music by

Juvenile Band opened with a selection
after which song was rendered by the
Chorus. Rev. Nj. Hauser delivered an
eloquent patriotic address, in which he
paid fine tribute to the heroes of the
civil war and subsequent wars. who
fought and bled for the preservation Of
liberty. justice and equal rights. He
touched upon many present day pro-
blems confronting the nation and urged
all citizens to honor and respect those
in governmental authority. because
government is really divine institu-
tion for the preservation of human
society and the protection of life and
property. He had no sympathy for
those who wanted to destroy the gov
ernment by force or other means. AS
good citizens it is our duty to obey the
laws and use our influence to perpet-
uate and keep ever pure the priceless
heritage handed down to us by the
fathers. Rev. Hauser's address was a

Democrats were carrying over the
country by REAL Roosevelt. The
Colonel launched into discussion of
the League Of Nations, the chief issue
in the present campaign. He called
attention to the Democratic slogan in
the last campaign. "He Kept Us Out of
War" and he said the Democratic
claim for the League Of Nations was
about on par with that slogan. In
stead of keeping us out of future wars,
the Colonel said, the League of Ma
tions was an agreement to drag US into
European disagreements of all kinds.
| He quoted French officer and the
representative of one the European
nations in the League of Nations con-
ference as relying upon Americas mil

could not speak longer.
