Civil War Veterans, many years
have passed since you stacked your
arms and received from grateful
nation your honorable discharges, the
tokens of a service faithfully done.
But your service is not yet accom-
plished. Death has not ended the
service Of your fellow comrades;
their mortal struggle is long past
and though in death have their bodies
found rest at the last from mortal
things their service will continue.
For your service was begun in a spir-
it that never dies, spirit that never
dies brought success to your arms.
and spirit that never dies will
glorify your service in our future
generations.
Your service, like all great things,
was humbly given. On this anniver-
sary day we are not satisfied unless
we muster such pomp and ceremony
as we can command to demonstrate
our reverence Yet we can hardly
picture in our minds the myriad
humber ways in which your service
has been honored in the past three
score years, nor the influences that
your service has brought to bear upon
civic life and upon individual lives.
The philosophical student Of history
tells us that the future is but the
development of the past. To follow
tradition has ever been one of the
strongest instincts Of mankind. We
cannot weigh or estimate the tradi-
ton you have given us, any more
than we can weigh or estimate
mothers love: words can not tran
slate that surging ip our breasts as
you pass by with emblem that you
saved-our flag. Our country was no
easy gift, 1t was wrought with toll

The weather man was surely on

in which to pay tribute to those who
answered the call of our country for
service. The attendance at all the
functions of the day was large. not

The exercises followed the custom
of many years past and the forenoon
was given over to the decorating of
the graves of the veterans in the
outlying districts and in Randolph.

The bond of military service has
ever been strong one, a service that
calls for supreme sacrifice could not
be otherwise. Although the history
OF our country spans but a short time,
the veterans of our wars seem far
apart in age when measured by the
limits of one human life. Yet, Vet
Grams of the Civil War, Comrades Of
the Service, to that All-seeing eye
that guides our destinies and knows
no limits of time or space, our diff

1--WE meet upon a most solemn oc-
casion, to honor our soldiers OF the
Civil War, both those whom God has
spared through dangers of war and
peace, and those whose graves we
have decorated this morning with
tokens Of our love and reverence.
Our duties are solemn, but not sad.
The kindly hand of time has softened
a little the sense of personal bereave-
ment that has filled our hearts from
time to time as these brave relatives
and friends have left us. Yet this Is
a day of mourning shared by all of
us. and that common sorrow should
tighten the burden of those whose
personal losses have been the great

our citizens whispered to each 9th.

BRINGS
UP AGAIN The
OLD ARGUMENT

Washington, June 23.-Mrs. John A.
Logan, president of the Colonial
Danes, stated here today that that or
ganization would urge other patriotic
societies to press against the use in
schools of any state, of histories that
do not conform to facts"
Hearing of the declaration in the
report adopted at the convention in
Richmond of the United Confederate
Veterans that the war was deliber-
ately conceived by Lincoln" and that
histories teaching this should be used
in southern schools, Mrs. Logan said
that the assertion was "perversion
of facts" and that all patiotic societies
would be urged to seek the suppress
sion of any such histories.
Col. John McElroy, vice commander
of the Grand Army of the Republic
and editor of its National Tribune,
said Grand Army leaders would pro-
test the assertions in the report adopt
ed by the Confederate Veterans. NO
one made greater effort than Abra-
ham Lincoln to pacify the South" said
Col. McElroy NO man could have
pleaded more strongly for the seced-
ing States to return to the Union than
he did in his inaugural address.
1T seems to me that the veterans
have gone far out of their way to
publish an unwarranted statement.
am glad to be able to say that | do not
believe this feeling to be general in
the South"
