MEMORIAL DAY SERVICE


Under a perfect blue sky up the
aisle OF green trees the soldier boys
carried the Stars and Stripes of the
G. A. r. and the deep blue banner
of the American Legion from the
Court House to the Methodist
church on Memorial Day. The @.
A. X. Veterans led the column.
The band played while the people
were being seated and then all sang
America" Chaplain Ford led in a
prayer of invocation which was fol-
lowed by "Onward Christian Sol
diers," sung by the congregation.
Rev. S. F. Kelly spoke feelingly
to his few remaining comrades Of
the Civil War and expressed their
assurance that they are leaving the
flag where 1t will be reverenced and
Loyalty protected when they leave II
in the care of the young soldier OF
today who walks with eager and
buoyant step. The G. A. r. was or
ganized primarily to take care OF
the comrades graves and to keep in
mind their deeds in making this a
united country. The North, East,
South and West will always uphold
the flag which has always proved so
dear to the American people.
Mrs. Geo. F. Tinsley read "In
Flanders Field in a most appealing
manner after giving a brief history
of its composition. Mrs. Thos. B.
Kaufman sang Christ in Flanders"
in a simple and pleasing manner.
DR.. G. NJ. Klepfer as speaker Of
the day made a splendid address
saying in part that this is a day of
memories and we should speak soft
ly and tread tenderly as we walk
among memories of the past. He
said we are now trying to give ex-
preston to the idealism of the pre-
sent day while holding on to the
memories of the past He mention
ed the different vitalizing principles
which lie at the heart of the differ
ent days we honor-Memorial Day
being a prompt and unhesitating re-
sponse of patriotism. The ideal OF
the soldier OF the World War was
that it was a war to end wars. The
Washington Conference also held to
this ideal. The speaker paid a tri-
butte to the common soldier saying
it takes an uncommon man to make
common soldier who does the un-
common things that make this un-
common country what it is.
The band rendered several patri-
otic selections and the service clos
ed with the benediction pronounced
by Rev. D. Edgar Allen.
At 1880 the American Legion and
National Guard assembled at the
Court House and marched to the
cemetery where a arge number had
gathered for the decoration of the
graves of our heroic dead Chaplain
Ford led in prayer. Commander
Mayhem called the roll, the salute
was fired and then detachments OF
troops decorated all the graves of
fallen comrades.

CIVIC VIRTUE SEES
ONE ROUGHER THAN HE
Dancers Stage a CoUe Group
at City Hall Fountain.

Civic Virtue looked down yesterday
upon one even rougher than he in
treating women in the name of art.
Civic Virtue merely steps upon a fem
inine beauty as upon a door mat. But
a shirtless cave man before the same
Macmonnies fountain in City Hall Park
choked a lovely damsel and did it with
one hand as il rudely demonstrating
to the crowd how easy 1t was.
The cave man, who was clad only in
a sort of classic Greek form of bee
veedees. consisting of a grapevine
around the waist and pair of trunks,
arrived with bevy of five maidens, who
came apparently intent upon putting
Civic Virtue and the whole male sex
for that matter in their proper place.
The groups were represented to be
students from Berkeley. Cal, who are
working their way through college by
dancing at an uptown theater and now
feel 1t their duty to educate the world
as to how Civic Virtue would have
acted IL she had been woman and
had been brought up right, amid Cali

When they reached the scene Of battle

Morgan. head OF their lodge, the girls
took off their outer garments. revealing
filmy draperics which archaeological stu
dents among the cops Immediately rec
ognized as very Greek. The official an
nouncement stated that they were
Meeka Aldrich. Florence Martin, Ruth
Southgate. Esther Sommers and Mar
jorie Leet. Small wonder a crowd OF
more than 500 quickly collected and
gave the police a hard tussle while
they studied Greek art in the raw. Ahead
OF the avenging but lovely furies strode
Jack Triesalt. described as a weight
thrower. but who seemed inclined to
heave nothing heavier than garland OF
flowers.
While the movie cameras clicked he
climbed the base of the statue and
clutched Miss Martin around the neck
while with his other hand he seemed
to be doing a little chiropractic work
on the back Of Miss Sommers.
But rescue was at hand. because the
statuesque Miss Aldrich mounted the
rim Of the fountain, while the winds
purple. She reached down and yanked
Miss Martin from the shirtless cave
mans grasp. And after Miss Lee and
Miss Southgate had arisen and brushed
the cinders off their knees the tableau
was over and woman had once more
been freed

of the fact that he had not been trained

Mr.. Erlanger's attorney in Chicago

the possibilities for the post. He is

3BILLETED' REVIVED
IN VILLAGE THEATER
Miss Lois Bolton in Miss Ang-
Inns Former Role.

Another springtime experiment OF the
more or less inexplicable kind that oc-
cupies the theaters now, took place last
night on the stage of the Greenwich
Village Theater given over recently to
so much that has been freakish and
amateur The comedy of English life
by F.. r. Jesse and II. NJ. Harwood,
which was acted here by Mrs. Margaret
Anglin at the Playhouse four years ago.
was revived After Miss Anglin had ex-
hausted its popularity as a play. Miss
Billy Burke used It as cinema. which
the extravaga7t and erring scenario
writer made native in locale and wound
up with a wonderful picture of Miss
Burke in bed.
So "Billeted" had noi been neglected.
A note by the management called at
tention to the performance of the play
In it's original form, which requires a
young woman as the heroine. The Com
edy Company. which presented the
piece, contains some capable actors to
add new vitality 10 its scenes. Two
young women in the leading roles were
especially attractive. Miss Lois Bolton
pouted alluringly through the part Of the
heroine quite in the earlier manner OF
Miss Laura Hope Crews and gave every
widow. Miss Selena Royle. blonde
Diana. provided a fascinating portrayal
of the faithful flapper. which In its
personal charm and uncommon intelli-
gence, was genuine dramatic achieve
ment. So much technical finish was
moreover surprising in an actress Of
such youth.
Miss Grace Gr'swold had collected
other accomplished actors for "Billeted"
which certainly needs them. The play
has not grown any brighter in its years
of disuse. Lumsden Hare gave a fine
portrayal of the haw-haw Colonel and
I.angdon Bruce realized all the humor
that Law in the part of the returned
husband. Kate Mayhem. Mary Hughes
and Sally Williams, Harold Wizard and
Marshall Vincent were others in the
