Granite City Grange Bazaar a Success,

The first annual bazaar of Granite
city Grange, held in City hall Satur-
day, was a great success. The booths
were exceedingly attractive and we'll
stocked and were well patronized. The
fancy work table was gay with pink
and white crepe paper and was de-
lightful to the eye. In charge were
Mrs. Arthur Lord and Mrs. Benton
Boothby. The articles displayed were
original and interesting as we'll as
pleasing. The booth which had the
aprons ard the children's wear was
presided over by Mrs. Alonzo Cooke
and Mrs. Goodwin. The colors were
yellow AID white, spring-like and dain-
ty. The ice cream and candy booth, in
charge Of Mrs. Harvey Crimmin, was
particularly striking. 1t was in red
and white. One feature Of this booth
was a large cake with the words
Granite City Grange" in icing on the
top. 1T was won by Frederick Will
son. The cooked food booth was also
effective. Its colors were yellow and
green and the arrangement artistic.
Mrs. Walter Rollins and Mrs. Hattie
Trask presided at this booth.

Union Memorial Service

Union memorial services were held
in city hall last evening under the
auspices of Gen. c. w. Tilden camp,
Sons of Veterans. The Sons of Vet
Grams and the auxiliary to Gen. c.
w. Tilden camp attended in a body
and were escorted by Bigelow's
boys band. The members of Frank
Z. Goodrich post American Legion,
also attended in a body. Each or
ganization brought its colors. The
hall was beautifully decorated in pa
triotic colors with flags and bunting.
The address was delivered by Rev.
w. P. Bradford of the Old South
Congregational church, Rev. c. T..
Young of the Baptist church read
the scripture lesson of the evening.
Rev. r. H. Moyle of the Methodist
Episcopal church offered praye and
Rev. Rush w. d. Smith of the Epis-
copal church gave the invocation,
opening prayer and benediction. Mrs.
Edith Horne sang a fine solo. Jesus,
Lover of Ny Soul" and Bigelow's
boys band played patriotic selec-
lions, Mrs. j. NJ. Robinson was &C
companist. The hymns used We're
"America the Beautiful" Battle
Hymn of the Republic" "Tenting
Tonight" and America" The choirs
of the various churches were present
and led the singing.
Rev. Mr.. Bradford's address was a
stirring call to patriotism. He re-
viewed the heroic struggles of the
Pilgrims, the war for religious Ii
berty; the civil war, the war to free
race; finally. the world war; to free
all people. Human sacrifice neces-
sary to bring the "Culloden flower
into being. Memorial day is day OF
memories, it is a day unique in hol1-
days. 1t is a time of Renaissance.
"How many" he asked. would die
for God and for faith?" The first
principle of faith is self denial. How
about ones duty to God an country
in time of peace? The spirit of re-
ligous patriotism runs altogether too
low in some religious soldiers. Self
surrender is another principle. We
are all called to the war against un-
righteousness. Onward Christian
Soldiers is the song for Memorial
day. We should be up and doing
and work for humanity. The church.
he declared. needs young men TODAY,
certain duties face us. Action is
needed. action for righteousness. We
have duties toward other nations.
He closed with the reminder no to
| forget those who have served their
country. Lord. God of hosts. be
with us yet, lest we forget, lest we
forget"
He then made a final eloquent APP
peal for the disabled veterans and
orphans of the world war"

MAKE 1T INCLUSIVE AND
"SNAPPY"

It isn't quite clear why objection
should be made to booming Names
tourist advantages, on the ground
that all effort should be devoted to
building up our Industries. improv-
ing our agricultural facilities and all
that. There is no reason why these
should not proceed hand in hand,
why the stimulus applied to the one
will not react favorably upon the
other. We do not become bound to
precedent by studying methods
which have proved successful in 9TH
er parts of the country or in using
them where found to be applicable.
Such conclusions are supported by
recent demonstrations. One of the
most conspicuous was made right
here in the heart Of Maine only the
other day, when residents came for
ward with offers Of material for
road building, material that they
might have hoped later to sell for
thousands of dollars. They haven't

Also those who are taking the lead
in arousing the public to possibili-

not restricting their efforts to pub

few days efforts will be centralized
upon a development which promises
much for Maine. in that it would
utilize one Of its great assets now
comparatively dormant, that of the
manufacture from hardwoods. AS a

There also is in evidence a DISPOSE
tion on the part Of other steamship
lines to offer inducements to tourists,
such that people of moderate means
may so be served. The Cunard tours
leaving England and Ireland give
passage to Quebec and Montreal and
from there land tour to Ottawa
Toronto, the Canadian lake region
and into the States by way Of Nj
agara Falls to Boston and New York
1t would seem that there should be

HAVE WE FORGOTTEN? NO!

1t will be helpful this week to re-
yive impressions we were receiving
eight wears ago. Feelings had long
been narrowed by reports of the cru
ellest war recorded in history. we
knew that we were sending the best
physioue Of our youth, the strength
Of the next generation into the well
ter Of war. -
Let us recall the sentiments that
eripped us when our boys were snip
ned across an ocean infested by sub
marines, to foreign shore. we one
" dimly realized that we had been
cruelty negligent in the previous
wears. with the threat of war hang
ing over us, because we had not III
ted our young men for the ordeai
that impended. We did not realize
that we were sending many OF them
practically helpless from lack Oh
training and equipment into inev-
table slaughter. We did, however
comprehend enough Of the sacrihce
to which we were dedicating them
"a resolve to dedicate ourselves. They
or theirs should not be forgotten In
the years to come. The security OF
our homes, the wealth in our banks
the sinews Of our material life, the
will to sustain civilization. the aspir-
ations and convictions Of the Amer
Jean people, those boys took with
them over the seas. We vowed thet
this should not be forgotten.
This is the week when Maine peo-
nile will be asked to contribute their
quota to the fund for the relief Oh
those who suffered most among
those of us who took part in the
Great War. the injured and the de-
pendents deprived Of support, cases
which the Government machinery
cannot relieve as it should be done.
The call is made in perfect conf
dence that the response will be gen
erous. Any other expectation would
be unthinkable. Our traditions for
bid. The spirit that never has fall
ed the people Of Maine respecting
the needs of those called to undergo
the supreme test Of citizenship, Of
fering life on behalf of the country
Is neither lacking nor dulled. Now
we have chance to prove it. Also
It is the call Of duty.
