Memorial day brings deeper and
richer memories every year, as the
roll of honor grows longer with the
anne Of Americans who have died
for their flag ut home, overseas and
on islands of the seas. An hour "a
be spent profitably by every American
today, glancing back over the record
of the United States and making an
estimate of the present and the future
of the country. What did the dead
accomplish by giving the last full
measure of devotion? Are the living
impressed by what they did, and do
they more than ever highly resolve
that the dead shall o have died in
vain?
Every one of the American dead
every soldier, every sailor-gave all of
himself to his country. If hat is not
a reminder that every American owes
at least some of himself to his coun-
try, then, indeed, the dead died In vain
and the living live in vain.
The dead gave honor and glory and
perpetuity to the flag. What are the
living Americans giving TO 1t? Is 1T
honor, glory and p~erpetuity? Is each
citizen sitting out the pure from the
GROSS in his heart, and giving to his
country only the choicest portions of
his spirit, as the dead gave before
they were taken away? Or is the liv-
ing American carefully selecting and
boarding the best of himself for his
own use, and palming off upon his
country a sham patriotism. a niggardly
pretext of devotion, a shoddy adher-
ence to ideals and a counterfeit of
honor? 1t is not for others to pass
Judgment: they cannot do so justly. 1t
is for each citizen to search his own
heart and pass Judgment upon himself.

WORK IS DELAYED
 BY UNAVOIDABLE WEATHER

Storms and heavy rains in the highlands to the south of Nenana have greatly delayed the construc- tion of the Government railroad, and at a time when every days counts largely in the plans of the railway builders. It is estimated that the work has received a setback of more than week in consequent of the unfavorable weather con ditions which have prevailed along the line, between ends of steel.
 Storms in the Southern division are reported to have held up track laying operations considerably. The end of steel, north from Hurricane Gulch, has reached Mile 294, where the work was held up by stormy weather. Swollen streams have put number of bridges along the wag- on road temporarily out of com mission, and more or less damage also has been done to completed and uncompleted sections of the grade.
 The end Qf steel south from Healy, has been advanced to Mile 351, where the work las been halt ed, pending the completion of a bridge of considerable size. The construction of this bridge may take two or three weeks. after which the rails will again begin moving twoard Riley Creek, three or four miles beyond, The arrival at Riley Creek will mark the completion of tracklaying operations in this division, as it will be necessary 10 wait there for the coming of bridge steel from the coast, which cannot be hauled until the rails reach Riley from the south.
 Officials of the Commission are hopeful of being able to lay steel from the south to Mile 813 before work is suspended for the winter. If that point is reached, and the track extended south to Riley. the gap between steel will be only 34 miles. The distance between steel at the present time is 57 miles.
