MEMORIAL DAY.

During the days of the civil war il
is said that there was longing in the
heart of Abraham Lincoln for Dixie
and when Lee laid down his arms Lin
coin is said to have asked for Dixie
with the words that he had appreciat-
ed it as a wonderful piece of music
and now that he had captured it he
was entitled TO its use.
Just as there was a longing in the
heart Of Lincoln for Dixie Just so there
has been a longing in the south for
Decoration Day During the recon
struction days the acts Of the federal
government were not very popular in
the south and the people did not OBJ
serve National Decoration day but
chose later dater on which occasion
they decorated their own graves.
But the day chosen did not fit we'll,
1t was never observed with the spirit
that the day was entitled TO and now
since the sons of the men in grey
fought along eide the sons of the men
in blue there is a necessity for one
common decoration day.
The South has often longingly look
ed to May 30 and wished for it as o
decoration and as a memorial day. It
Is glad to seize the opportunity offer.
ed by the womans auxiliary TO adopt
1t as memorial day for the whole coun-
try and it is believed that the Memoir
ial Day which comes next Monday will
be more generally observed in the
South than ever before.
During the world war on one oecas
ion in this city when federal and con-
federate soldiers marched together
down the streets each bearing the col |
ors OF the other. thus showing the
blending of the two forces which had |
been formerly divided there were /
ears in the eyes Of the stoutest heart
I'd men.
Truly the forces which divided have
'een reunited. As an appreciation Of
hat restoration Of harmony it would
'e indeed very pleasing if every fam
ly in Ardmore would take some part
n the exercises on Memorial Day
which comes next Monday.

HARVEY COMMERCIALIZATION.

Perhaps the utterances of no pub
lie speaker have been so harshly criti-
cised as has the famous speech of Mr.,
Harvey at the Pilgrims club dinner in
London.
And perhaps no speaker ever be-
fore gave voice to expressions which 81.
merited harsh criticism.
Mr.. Harvey would have the English
people, would have the world believe
that America entered the World War
only 10 save Americas financial insti
tutions, not the institutions which safe,
guard American citizens, not the nstl
tuition Of this government, not the con-
stituton of the American people, the
constitution which is sanctlfied by the
blood of the Revolutionary fathers of
this nation.
Mr.. Harvey would have the world,
believe that the patriotism of the
American people is symboled by the
dollar mark, that it was fear of the.
destruction Of our financial strength
and not love Of liberty and in defense
Of right against might, which led tho
mothers Of America to offer their
sons, IN sacrifice, upon the altar Of the
war god when the German kaiser
threatened the overthrow of civiliza
ton
Mr.. Harvey would have the world
believe that fear of losing wealth alone
called the young men Of Americ. to
arms, when the cohorts Of imperialism /
mas driven the allies TO the wall anc |
was threatening America. American /
principles and American traditions.
From his viewpoint, perhaps. Mr.

siole for many sins Of the war COM
mitted before the United States en-.
tered the conflict Such men as Mr..
Harvey. men who entertained dis
honest ideas about America and Anne
rican patriotism We're primarily re.
Sponsible for the idea entertained so
enormously by the Germans and those
Of this country who We're pro German
at heart, that the people of the United
States would not resent insult for
fear of jeopardizing foreign CONNER
eial interests, and would not rally to
the defense Of honor, right and JUS

aud such mcn us Mr.. Harvey, sent
as representatives TO foreign courts,

THE AMERICAN CREED

believe in the United States Of
America as a government of the

from the consent of the governed a
democracy in republic, a sovereign
Nation Of many sovereign States a
perfect Union, one and inseparable,
established upon those principles of
freedom. equality, justice and HUI

sacrificed their lives and fortunes.
therefore believe it is my duty TO

respect its flag; and to defend It
against all enemies.

Ii there is any man in the body poll
tics who is under a profound obligation
to obey the law Of the land, to lead
straight, decent life. morally, to be
absolutely honest in all of his trans
actions, 1t is the man who has been
given a public office. who is held in
public trust. When he betrays the con-
fidence of the people who put him into
office he becomes the arch-Judas. His
whole career is one of destruction. No
punishment could be too severe for
him.

And said Now that's substraction."
Then he kissed her and she kissed him,

A pet cat at the Lawrence House
that goes by the name of Smut"
created a little stir in that neighbour
hood, Tuesday, by climbing a tall
tree in front Of the house and refus-
ing to come down. The cat had be-
come frightened at an auto horn. and
climbed so far up the tree that it was
afraid to try the downward trip. All
the efforts of the people near there
to call the cat we're in vain, and the
pet remained in the tree over night.
Early Wednesday morning, a man at
the new fire station, who, by the way
is some climber, volunteered his SER
vices and the cat was rescued from
it's lofty position
