and sympathy which united US as
one large brotherhood willing TO
sacrifice all for the cause OF our
country. How can we do this more
than by always keeping in our
hearts a love for our soldier dead.
Today we place on their mounds the
choicest flowers of this springtime
of peace Today we raise above
them the flag of country, their flag
that they loved SO well. And today
let US as members of the American
legion sympathize with that moth
er and father who gave him TO his
country. Let US realize that the
Christian home is the foundation of
patriotism. Let US fully realize that
it was the home life, the teachings
and influence of a loving mother
and a just father that raised that
boy with a love of flag and country
in his heart.
This day we mourn with you.
and turning to you in reverence
and admiration offer to you what
measure of consolation is ours TO
give. He has given his life, his all,
and has passed to his reward. You
have given him more precious than
I! life itself, and yours is a heart
pierced through by the sword of
war, but heart that must live on
and suffer forever.
Let us never forget the lesson
we have learned through the beau
tiful sacrifice of our dead soldiers.
Let us live to make the land worthy
of their death. When we are con-
fronted with the denials necessary
for the proper life in the eyes of
God and country, let US remember
how trivial that denial in compari-
son with the soldiers sacrifice.
i When we are called upon to sup
port our government either from a
matter of financial or from stand
point of time and effort, let US not
hesitate, let US but remember how
small that contribution is in com
parison to their sacrific of life.
Death Not Loss But Gain.
Always remember this is as
much your country as it was theirs.
That flag is as much your flag as
it was the flag of those who bled
and died for it. That flag with its
every stripe shining redder and
whittier, every field bluer, every star
brighter on account of the beautiful
emphasis of their well-spent life
Some picture death as coming to
destroy On this day of devotion,
let US rather picture God coming to
save. Let US not consider death as
an ending. but rather as begin
ming; not losing but rather a gain
ing; not a going away but rather an
arriving In thinking of our SOL
diers, remember as they heard the
voice lof death whispering, You
must go from EARTH they heard the
voice of Christ say You are but
coming to Me-

Columbus. Ga. May SOTO the
women of Columbus, Ga, belongs
the honor of having conceived Me
mortal day as we know it today.
The first observance was on April
rs, 1866
Charleston, S. c., had previously
held d form of memorial exercise
on May l. 1865, consisting of dedi-
cation ceremonies of the ground
where 257 Union soldiers were
buried. Ten thousand persons at
tended the exercises, which were
arranged by James Redpath, gener-
al superintendent of education. But
as this gathering was called for
the single purpose of dedicating
cemetery, it could hardly be regard
ed as the first Memorial day"
There were no festivities in con-
nection with the first Memorial
day in Columbus This was a day
of sad memories"
From 1851 TO the end of the war
Columbus had Ladies Aid society,
its purpose being to care for SOL
diers, Ill or wounded, who might
come home or who could be reach
ed in the field In January, 1866,
shortly after the end of the strug-
gle, Miss Lizzie Rutherford asked
Mrs Jane Martin. a resident of
GreeLville who was visiting in Co
lumbus, to join number of other
women at Linwood cemetery in
looking after the graves of soldiers
who had died in Columbus hospit-
ais.
The duty of devotion finished,
Miss Rutherford and Mrs. Martin
discussed the significance of the
work they had been doing in the
cemetery.
Let US continue the Ladies Aid
Society for work of this character"
said Miss Rutherford.
! Within few days, in January of
1865, she called meeting of the
society at the home of Mrs. John
Tyler. The house still stands

 "Opposition,' Mir. Doty said. "is al ways to be expected, and like the poor spoken of in the Bible, will al- ways be among us, but opposition to Bill Brandon in this race is negIigi ble. And do you believe that in some sections of the state you can't con vince great many voters that when the state is stumped there will be more than one candidate?
 You may be safe in saying Bill Brandon will be the next governor of Alabama"
