terfering with the duties of the men
composing the firing squad.
During the past year there have
been 2,364 of cur overseas dead in
tered in beautiful Arlington National
cemetery.
kilograms announcing the date on
which interments will take place in
Arlington. are sent to relatives by the
chief of the cemeterial division who
further advises that should they at
tend the funeral ceremonies. and
should they so desire, all information
and assistance concerning hotel accom-
mediation and transportation to Airing.
ton will be given them by the Travel
ers' Aid society representatives who
are on duty in the Union station in
Washington.
The splendid. efficient and sympa-
thetic assistance of this society has
been a blessing to the relatives Of the
dead.
The District of Columbia chapter Of
the Red Cross. at their headquarters
on Jackson square, receive all the out
of-town relatives and friends who
come to attend these services, and
on Mondays and Thursdays, special
luncheons are served for them They
also provide notorious transportation
to Arlington cemetery and return.
The interest of the Red Cross does
not stop there, for 1t has made special
arrangement with the quartermaster
general and the cemeterial d,Vislon to
have large canvas tents pitched at or
near the places where the burials take
place. Several women representing
the Red Cross are always In these
tents to receive the relatives and
friends and 10 make them comfort
able, or to let them rest until the hour
arrives for the services which ia an
nounced by the measured tread of tho
military companies detailed for this
duty from the command at Fort Myer.
The detail. with ITS band, its buglers
and Its firing, squad. is always accom-
panied by at least two chaplains, one
Protestant and the other Roman
Catholic and when necessary a Rabbi
is there. TO conduct the last rites.
Another touching incident connected
with these funerals is the dropping of
flowers I'm each grave as the final
prayers are said This loving act is
performed by representatives of the
War Mothers, who never fail to be
present when Arlington is receiving
Its overseas dead.
As we hear the sweetly doleful
notes of the band. and listen to the
soft-spoken words of the chaplain, fol-
lowed by the musket-y salute, we feel
thrill of solemn pride, a realization
that, in hours of need, our country
has ever had its full quota of the
brave and heroic.
The bugler now steps up to the
grave. and as the notes of his trumpet
echo amongst the hills and trees
through our thoughts pass the words
of TAPS:
Fades the light:
And afar
Goeth day,
Cometh night;
And a star
Leadeth all.
Speedeth all
To their rest.
And thus ends the last journey.

MULBERRY MAY
SOON ORGANIZE
A CIVIC CLUB

Interest stirred up by the mass
meeting of January 9th concerning
civic improvements continues to grow
and large crowd greeted Mr.. Frank
Stockdale Of Chicago who addressed
the citizens Thursday afternoon on
cooperative methods of community
achievements.
Mr.. Stockdale stressed the fact that
this is an age of get-togetheF and
work-together and Of having faith
with understanding-that the day of
petty individual competition must end
or success will never come. The main
fact is that folks will have to get &C
quainted,-to really know the inner
man, before any great achievement
can be undertaken that require the
strength of cooperation. "Those who
are not up on a thing are down on
it," said Mr.. Stockdale, land those
who don't understand a thing are
against it,"
Many helpful points were gained
applicable to Mulberry which will be
of great use in the new organization
now under way and to show their ap-
probation a rising vote of thanks was
extended Mr.. Stocwdale.
Mr.. T. J. Appleyard, secretary OF
the Lakeland Chamber of Commerce,
