C. F. Smith Delivers Grafton of the Day

Upon this incomparable site over looking the surrounding city and the beautiful panorama which stretches beyond it to the far off hills. the City of New Britain has erected in honor of her citizens who served in the Great War this Memorial which we are met here today to dedicate.
 "On the north side of this shaft tablet of bronze records the pride of the city that more than four thousand of her citizens served in that war.
 "The inscription in bronze on the south side of the shaft and the in- dividual tablets on the circle of stone which surrounds the platform on which 1t stands testify to our own and to following generations the pride and the sorrow of the city for her sons to the number of one hun- dred and twenty-three who gave their lives to their country in that war.
 Their names, so the inscription reads, Are Here Inscribed; Their Memory Lives in the Heart of a Grateful City,
 Here under the shadow of this shaft draped with the flag and sur mounted by the Eagle of Liberty, their names and service recorded in enduring bronze, here. wherever else their bodies may lie, on land or in the Sea. at home or in far coun- tris. or in unknown graves, here in spirit do they lie at rest. their duty done. their work accomplished, their fame secure.
 Not in our time can America'a great effort in that war be adequate ly described. The picture is too vast we are too near yet to see it as a whole. only in part can the his. torian of today describe it. Time and distance only can give us the necessary perspective. But even now we can realize the grandeur of that effort in which the new world threw it's weight into the struggle to re- dress the balance of the old.
 We are still near enough to those great days to feel the thrill of pride and of wonder which filled oul hearts as we saw America gather together her mighty resources oi every kind and send them with hel millions of soldiers across three thousand miles of sea.
 >"It was and will remain one of thu greatest epics of history.
 Upon the battlefields of th< French Republic the soldiers of thu Great Republic of the west. fighting in cause not altogether their own brought 10 the sorely tried armiel of the allies the moral and physica support that made victory secure.

Rev. T. A. Greene Offers Prayer

Eternal God. our dwelling place in all generations, from Whom we come and to Whom We return. help us now to bring unto Thee-in this service of dedication-heartst that are full of reverence and gratitude and humility, as we set apart this lofty memorial to our honored dead.
 Tn the midst of the years which have been crowned with Thy good- ness we praise Thy mercy and Thy truth. Thy guidance and Thy provi- dence, which have been with us hitherto in this land of liberty, and nave blessed us also in this city of our habitation. We consider the generations of old. and our hearts say unto us-Did ever any trust in God and were put to shame?
 70 Thou, who are the God of our Fathers, who fixed here the founda- tions of our nation. and art also the God of our brothers. who laid down their lives to defend it's honor and in the hope of making peace at last l earth. we thank Thee for all good examples and brave testimonies, and for the faithful memories of all those. who-being dead-yet speak to us today.
 Because we know Thee as the God of the living and of the dead. we rejoice together now in recalling the story Of their sacrifice, in re- counting how they enlisted in the great World War. how they trained earnestly. fought faithfully. and died bravely. each leaving us his own personal eternal witness to the truth: Greater love hath no man than this that a man shall lay down his life for his friends
 We remember here in gratitude o God. the many homes into which these men were born. and in which they were reared to fear dishonol more than death and to love then country to the uttermost We pray Thee to grant Thy blessing to rest especially today upon the father. and mothers, the brothers and sis. ters. the wives and children ant swecthearts. whom they left behinG them. Oh give unto all, who must O necessity mourn their going. tha comfort of the Spirit. which come, from knowing that they died lik, brave men in a noble cause. ant that they gave their last full meas ure of devotion that justice ant righteousness and peace might no perish from the earth.
 We remember also the loyalt, and patriotism of that even greate host of men from this city. who of fcred themselves for the sacrifice who did their bit' in the same war They have returned to us to mingl again in the life Of this city. to en gage in the upbuiiding of this com monwealth. and we render Tn. further and most hearty thanks 10 the testimony they have borne an, are still bearing. encouraging us t better citizenship and true patriotism to all Of whom this shaft is also al eternal witness.
 May all these examples an memories. as we'll as the great hop of lasting world peace. for uhic these brave men fought and died never perish from our hearts. Ma

Governor Trumbun
 Praises New Britain

MT. Chairman, Distinguished Guests and My Fellow Citizens:
 Y consider 1t real privilege and a high honor to be present today participating in this historic occa- sion. offer the congratulations of the state. and my personal con- gratulations to the City of New Britain and to all those who have united in this mighty effort to erect . magnificent. inspiring and lasting memorial to those who have served that this nation might live. assure you that the State of Connecticut is happy to be able to join with you in these dedication exercises and 1t is gratifying to tho state to be able to have her official representatives and troops present.
 Your efforts, your labors, your sacrifices to erect this memorial Ia an inspiring example of gratitude and patriotism and bespeaks the loyal devotion that you all have to your city. state and nation.
 'In our exercises we. of necessity. must say much of the great sacrifice and the patriotism of those who have gone, and for whom this memorial has been erected, but it is no profit for us to eulogize the illustrious men whose names appear on the tablets before us. or who are remembered. or to sound the praises l Al . hA iv, hA Anfonca of their country. unless we take to heart the lessons they have taught us. They have gone. and they have shown their devotion to a great cause. and they have left us to see to it that that cause shall not be betray- ed, whether in war or in peace.
 Tt may be said, with truth, that the dangers of peace are worse than the dangers of war, and that is particularly true of our nation. Every day shadowy hosts and forces are contending about us. and on one side or the other of these bloodless battles all of us must arraign our selves, and it is fitting. on a day like this, that we once more pledge our selves to keep faith with America in the same manner as those noble heroes who have gone before us.
 While it is impossible for us to do more than do honor to their memory and to erect lasting memorial. we can pledge ourselves anew to carry out the principles for which they made the supreme sacrifice. We cherish their memory by erecting this memorial and by so doing we honor all who have died, whether their names be here record ed or not, whether buried in the soil of their mother country, or whether buried in the blood -drench- ed fields of France.
 They are all silent sentinels for ages to come. and by their ever presence on duty. may the peace which their sacrifice won be ever se- cure, and may they ever watch over us and remind us that we too must keep faith with America in peace as they did in war"

 Boy and Gtri Scouts Aid
 Boy Scouts helped the police de- partment handle the crowds along the line of parade. At places where it was necessary the boys joined hands and made barriers beyond which no one could pass. Motor cycle policemen preceded and fol- lowed the parade.
 Girl Scouts assisted at the park by passing out programs and in serving at the refreshment stand.
 
 pressed at the efficient and smooth manner in which the parade was handed. From the time it started. almost promptly on the minute as announced to the time the marching hosts reached the park. there was not . hitch and everything went along almost as nearly perfectly as possible. Expressions of admiration and encouragement were heard of the manner in which the police de- pertinent functioned. With many supernumeraries out, some of them having their first taste of heavy traf- fic duty under circumstances such as these. traffic was kept moving. no one was injured and throughout the whole length of a three or four mile parade there were but two minor accidents. Particular com ment was made on the manner in which Lieutenant Matthias Rivai handled his men and the crowds al an especially difficult spot. The parade and exercises were the mecca for photographers of all sorts from amateur to aerial. Every photographer in the city was said tc have been out with his camera, while news reel men also were here to an. nounce to the world that New Brit. ain is on the map as always. l Tho exercises at Walnut Hill parl were opened by and conducted b!

Mayor Weld appointed two members of the common council to represent that body. These members were Donald L. Bartlett and William W. Greene. They also were constituted members of the general commtttse.
 On April ilth. lss7. Mayor 0ard- ner c. Weld, with suitable csse- monies. broke ground on Walnut Hill park, and the building of the memorial was begun. Tho work was started and continued to its compss- ton under the supervision of Wu- liam B. Beam of Kansas City. and to him the committee feels vsvy grateful for the efficient manner m which he supervised tho erection of this beautiful piece of architecture.
 50 rapid was the progress made under the supervision of MT. Beem. that on Wednesday. July goth. 1897. with . very simple and impressive ceremony. the cornerstone was laid. The speaker, on that occasion. was Dr. Oxora s. Davis of Chicago. for merly of New Britain.
 The committee Is of the unani- nous opinion that no symbol that will 'typify or remind one of war should be erected or parked in the vicinity of the memorial. as we feel it would be a desecration to those who gave their lives and in whose honor this memorial is erected.
 The memorial committee feels very grateful to. and wishes to thank sincerely. all those who have as- sisted in any way to make this mo morial possible. especially H. Van Buren Magonigle. the architect and designer of the memorial. and whom it is my great pleasure to present to you at this time.
 "As chairman of the memorial committee I want to express my deep appreciation to the members of the committee. feel as if l were de- livering a valedictory. The commit tee has been associated together for four years, and from the beginning to the present, nothing has arisen to mar our deliberations and united CO., operation. To. these gentlemen who have given 90 much of their valua ble time and service, I want to extend my heartfelt thanks for aiding the successful completion of this beauti- full work of art.
 And now. Mir. Mayor, the mem- bers of the committee which was ap- pointed by you four years ago feels that the duties imposed upon 1t by the common council and the citizens of New Britain are completed. We realized the importance of this great undertaking. We have watched its construction as if it were our own personal property. and it gives me great pleasure as chairman of the memorial committee. to turn over to you. as chief executive of the city of New Britain, this beautiful me- morial It has been erected within the amount appropriated by the common council and the committee feels that it is a perfect piece of work"
