FLOWERS FOR
SOLDIER DEAD
How Memorial Day Has Become Per-
sonaI, Not National Matter With
Majority of the
People.

BY request, the following contribtl-
ton from a keokuk woman, which
first appeared in the Keokuk news
papers in 1909, is published today. as
an appropriate reminder on the eve
of another Memorial day:
Memorial day is one day of the year
set aside by the government to honor
the memory of the dead soldiers who
gave their lives as sacrifice on their
altar for our
country's freedom. On that day We
are requested to strew their graves
with flowers. The custom has been
perverted. We have made a personal,
not national matter of it.
The graves in Oakland get the
choicest and best the florist can fur
nish, while our brave soldiers are dec
Grated with the most Indifferent kind.
many times olny a SNOWFALL, some
red clover and ribbon grass. We
have 1854 days of the year to lay flow
ers on the graves of our dear ones
in Goods acre" and let US see to It
that on the 365th all the choicest Of
flowers deck the "hallowed mould of
the brave soldier boys who gave all
they had--their Tives-that the dear
old stars and stripes might wave over
every state of the union, making that
day prominently the soldiers day;
whether their graves lie in the Cath
Ollie, Oakland or National cemeteries;
on that day let the decorated graves
be the soldiers, thereby inspiring
honor and patriotism in the younger
generation. ..,.
How sleep the brave, who sink to rest
By all their country's wishes blest;
When Spring with dew of fingers cold
Returns to deck the hallowed mould;
She then shall dress a sweeter sod 3
Than fancy's feet have ever trod:
BY fairy hand their knell is rung,
BY forms unseen their dirge is sung;
Then honor comes, pilgrim gray
To bless the turf that wraps their
h. clay; 49,
And freedom shall awhile repair
To dwell weeping hermit there.

World Outlook: Talk Of American
izing New England rings oddly on
American ears. If the cradle Of our
country needs Americanning. where
are we?
We think of Massachusetts as the
heart Of New England. Among the
states, it is next to the Oldest But
a count of her present generations
parentage shows Massachusetts to be
almost the least American OF the
forty-eight states.
The 1910 census discovered that
only 80 per cent. Of Massachusetts
folk were native born Of native par
ents. More than 68 per cent were
either foreign born or weer born here
Of foreign parents. Later figures
would be even more astounding. The

and the outbreak of the war saw the
greatest influx Of immigrants the
country has ever known.

mond horseshoe pin. His derby hat
head and tipped chippily down over
his right eye. He was very prosper
ous-seeming chap and appeared to be
very busy. There was one thing about
him which struck the Rambler as es-
pecially curious. 1t was his watch
brass rail, and small slab of mahog-
any dangled from it as watch
charm.

he and the Rambler met

And he twirled his rattan cane and
walked on. So let US also walk on, and
in the direction Of Bradley.
When the Rambler came to the little
old road which wanders off into the
woods and pines about a third of a mile
ifrom Lewis Chapel and few hundred
yards beyond the Parsons Fork he did
not know that it led to Bradley. When
he saw a horse, buggy, young man and
'yo1Hg, CIR s5nsff9 down thei1ain road
he 1determined to ask which way. It
did not require much determination. The
buggy was just a buggy, the horse was
just a horse, the young man was only
a young man, but she was very pretty.
And soon the Rambler came to the
quiet home of Capt. Jim Wiley. He was
born on Gunston Neck, in 1912. and
his father. Joseph. was born there in
1915. When Capt. Jim was several
years younger than he is now he heard
neighborhood history and stories from
people who were grown-up citizens of
the Neck as far back 1900. His
memory holds many of these valuable
tales. But we will treat now only of
Capt. Jim's own remembrance of the
Neck, which begin about 1850. Then
