DECORATION DAY.

Decoration Day will be observed in
the Lexington Cemetery on the last
Sunday in May, the 18th, instead of
the annual day, which is May 3lst.
As a matter Of convenience we decid-
ed to have it on Sunday and give ev-
erybody the privilege Of coming. We
hope the change Of date viii meet
with the approval of all who are inter-
ested. Come and bring all the flowers
you have and let US not be selfish and
put all of our flowers on our own
graves but divide with those who have
no flowers and let each one feel that
it is his or her duty to see that every
grave in the cemetery has a flower.
There will be a short program in the
afternoon and the decoration of the
graves will follow.
MRS. ]. A. BUCKLEY, Pres.
