Origir Of Memorial 'Day

The Memorial Day idea was born in a state
ly old Colonial mansion Of Columbus, Georgia,
the home of Mrs John Tyler, on April 26, 1866.
The wounds of the Civil War were fresh in
the land Aching hearts were stealing to ceme-
teries to bedeck the graves of soldier sons and
husbands who had died fighting for the blue and
the gray.
Thousands Of others sought graves of those
called "missng' and longed for even grave to
call their own.
It was then that Mrs Tyler called together
the women of her town and organized Ladies
Memorial Association. The women went from
Mrs Tylers home to Linwood cemetery IN Co.
lumbus where formal Memorial Day exercises
were held and the women sOlemny pledged to
carry on the sweet task Of decorating the graves
of the solder dead on the same day each year
Within a very few years the idea had swept
the nation until Memorial Day became legal
holiday so decreed by congress. The date, how
ever is optional with the states themselves.
Several southern states adhere to the original
date Of April &C. But most of the states cele-
brate Memorial Day on May 80 when flowers are
in bloom for decorating Of the graves.
General John A Logan Of Civil War fame
is credited with the first general proclamation
setting aside one Memorial day each year as
day Of tribute.
In 1863. when Logan was commandments
chief of the G. A. R., story has it that his wife re-
turned from southern visit and told how the
grave of each Confederate soldier at Petersburg
was decorated with a wreath and Confederate
flag
1t was then that "Black Eagle Logan issued
an order from G. A. R. headquarters on May 5,
1868, making Memorial Day northern as we'll
as a southern custom

Fear Aleutian
Storm Has Sunk
Motor Schooner

DUTCH HARBOR, Alaska. May
.29.-Local agents of the motor
schooner Patterson, Captain c. T.
Peterson in command, two weeks
out of Seattle, today expressed fears
for the craft s safety.
1t is considered probable that the
patterson may have been damaged
by recent heavy storms which swept
across the Aleutian Islands.
Naval radio stations here and at
Cordova have asked vessels going
Inorth and south through Unimak
Pass, also northern trans-oeeanie
ships to watch for the Patterson.
Captain Peterson purchased the
Patterson this year in Seattle. The
vessel formerly was used by the gov
crnment in Alaskan survey WORK.
Peterson is well known in Alas
kan waters, having been a fur trad
or for wears. AT one time he was
employed by Liebes Fur company of
san Francisco, but of late years has
been trading alone.

by District Attorney Utlcy, who dis
'cussed the plan with officials during

According to the district attorney,
the plan would not do anything to

would create confusion rather than
tend to solidify the prohibition en-
forcement.

WIN SSst iSoo
MUlRFlELD, Scotland, May %
jess Sweetser, stocky Young bond
broker of New York, today won the
British amateur golf championship,
shattering defcnses which have
guarded that cherished title from
Americans since Water Travis won
it, 22 years ago.
Sweetscr beat Alfred Simpson of
Edinburgh in the SO hole finals to-
day by the imposing score of six up
and five to play.
The Young American by his vie
tory becomes the second of his
countrymen ever to have won the
British amateur crown. Travis was
the only other from across the seas
to capture it.
