MEMORIAL DAY

Eureka was one OF the favored
places this year on Memorial Day for
our exercises we're carried through
without interruption-the showers
and rain holding on. or passing US by.
while many Memorial Day programs
throughout the State were declared
on or carried out only in part on ac-
count OF the inclement weather.
At the appointed hour a good num-
ber had assembled In the Knights Of
Pythias hall In Eureka, where the
Memorial Day services OF that Lodge
we're carried through by its officers.

Knights and Pythian Sisters. w. r..

doing so drew comparison between
the decoration of the soldiers graves
in years past and the present world
wide observance of May so; not as
q day to pay tribute alone TO the de-
parted heroes. but to remember all
our beloved dead. From the Ameri-
can custom Instituted for the fallen
braves has developed an established
practice Of once a year remembering
those who have been summoned and
laid to rest--whom we are thus re-
minded to bring into our lives one
day Of the year.

This year Eureka's cemeteries
showed that an unusual amount of
work had been done and care had
been taken of the graves and many
improvements made. After the work
of decorating and placing the flowers
had been completed the cemeteries
presented an appearances that would
equal those of warmer climes where
flowers grow proliflcly.

MILADY TO APPEAR

Chicago, May 30.-We've had pa
per plates for picnics. paper cups for
railroad cars. and paper baskets for
the cash and carry shopper.
Now comes the paper hat for the
tickle miss, for whom no bonnet has
charm after Q weeks wearing. Chic
and as pretty as anything ever con-
trived of straw and spangle, the pa
per hat Is so cheap that one can throw
1t away after q week or two without
a twinge of conscience.
The new hat. however, Is not as
yet ready for the public. Being an
innovation. 1t must make its way
slowly. Gage Brothers have just re-
ceived the samples from Paris. The
first one shown was q little hat Of
orchid shade. trimmed with two shiny
blue flowers.
"The French have perfected an in
tricate. method of treating certain
kind OF coarse paper. in such q way
that they may be braided or ironed
after having been treated with chemi-
GALS" J. A. Kaempf. manager Of the
Gage establishment, said. Then Q
glazing or waxing process completes
the work"
Mr.. Kaempf predicted great popu-
larity for the new paper hat.

There is somethingtn the title of
this years Senior play that appeals
to any one: Whose Little Bride
Are Your" In June the month of
weddings. when the young look for
ward and the old look back. the bride
crop is likely to be topic OF univers-
al interest. The Senior play should
be a success, II for no other reason
than that it boasts of six brides.
Whose Little Bride Are You?" is
a comedy. Better yet, 1t Is farce.
This combination is an assurance that
the cast will do its best to make you
laugh at no matter what embarrass-
ment to themselves. Did any one
ever NOW the lawn with a--but
come and see Algernon Clawfihmmer,
the long-suffering suitor, try 1t All
the parts are character. parts and all
well-suited to the actors. although
you many not be ablsto imagine the
valedictorian OF the Senior Class as q
ten-year-old child, or Albert Biale as
a gay, tflirtatious Englishman.
The fun OF a farce lies In its story
and 1t would be pity to give 1t
away before the play comes of. Let
US only say, then, that the action
centers around loveable quack, DR..
Bellows, whose hobby Is "The Bel
lows Patent Adjustable Steam Bath"
of which he is the inventor. His life
is made both happy and miserable by
two designing widows. not to men-
tion his efforts to provide a hus-
band for his daughter. The most
amusing complication In the play
arises from case of mistaken identi-
ty. which results in the suitors being
taken for the new butler and treated
accordingly. while thei butler enjoys
all the privileges OF an honored guest.
In fact. every one IN the cast has his
share OF trouble before the curtain
falls. But the troubles are all kept
behind the footlights and there is no
need for any one In the audience to
bring an extra handkerchief.
