MEMORIAL DAY

Should it be Just another holiday 70 he snont in
pleasure or day on which we spend least portion
of the time in paying due honor to those who died be-
meath the flag that we call ours?
Many who would be nsulted if one were to cues
ton their patriotism, their love of country are
as this is written, making plans for tomorrow to be
spent solely in pleasure. They do not intend be self
lsh about it perhaps but at the time they have no
wish to make little sacrifice Inconvenience them
selves Tor the short time it takes to attend Memorial
Day program.
Yet what would these Americans have said if tbet
read in their history books that Meades men refused
to make the sacrifice against Lees men at Getysburg
What would they say if the brave in gray had
fused to make the sacrifice demanded of them as they
be just?
What would they say if the men who suffered
from bullets and disease in the trenches at Santiago
had refused to make the sacrifice?
What would these same people have said if the
men of the American army had refused to make the
sacrifice demanded of them in the Cantigny drive
which opened ten years ago Yesterday? Thousands of
American youths sacrificed their lives in that one bat
tie. Thousands more wounded and thousands of
these latter still suffering in hospitals result
of the sacrifices they made.
1t IS only ten years since these boys suffered and
died. Had you asked any American then, he would
have made any sacrifice to prove that he real
