IL. setting May 30 as Memorial Day,
the first exercises were held at Airing
ton in 1863 The amphitheater in
which memorial services now are held
was completed in 1920 and superseded
small brick amphitheater.
Since the first national cemetery
was established at Mexico City in 1850
there have been more than 100000
burials. Its SO national cemeteries in
this country and abroad in France,
England and Belgium are guarded
reverently by the Federal Govern
ment. They are kept constantly in
the finest condition. The utmost care
is lavished upon their grounds. Regu-
lations governing their upkeep, per-
missible interments and the like are
enforced firmly but sympathetically.
Although the Mexico City grounds
may be considered the first national
cemetery, 1t was not until 1862 that
an act was passed by Congress pro-
viding for q system of such places of
interment. Since that time the Fed
eral Government has established ma
tional cemeteries as they have been
needed. The number has been aug
mented and in some cases original
cemeteries have been expanded.

Some Annapolis streets have been
widened in recent years by cutting
part of the pavement away. This
causes a lot of sidewalk congestion,
but pedestrian collisions are not seri-
GUS. The city cut about az or
feet of the pavement on one side
Of Maryland avenue, giving space IN
the street for three years. This per-
mitted parking on one side, with room
for two cars to pass. But some mer-
chants on the side where there were
mo parking" signs objected because
their customers couldn't stop IN front
of these stores. So flve-minute park
ing is now permitted on the west
side, with one-hour parking on the
east. Result: Although the city
chipped between 2 and 3 feet Oh the
pavement, when a 4-foot-plus wide
car is parked alongside the curb IN
the additional space, there Is less
room than ever in the center Tor
trafic. That is why, when you get
half way down the business block OF
Maryland avenue, headed toward the
Capitol, and q row Of cars turns IN
from State Circle, you have to back
out to let them through. The circle
Is one way and allows parking on
both sides; there Is no place for these
autos turning into Maryland avenue

traffic problem in Annapolis every
day on certain streets.
For example, any day Of the week,
any season of the year, driver may
find himself forced to back half a
block on Maryland avenue to avoid
q collision, though he may be driver
who Is familiar with conditions and
watches out for them. Multiply this
one familiar driver by thousands
who have never been in the town
before and who are completely be-
wildered by its circles and off-shooting
streets and you have some idea Of
the confusion which Is bound to
result.
MARYLAND avenue is important
because it leads directly to the
main gate of the academy, through
which most visitors like to pass. They

The Nation has not forgotten Gen.
Winfield Scott, hero of the Mexican
War, who, despite his age. headed the
military establishment at the outbreak
of the Civil War Gen. Scott per-
sonally commanded the troops at the
first Lincoln Inauguration.
A newer addition is the memorial to
John Ericsson, the Swedish inventor,
whose name belongs in any story Of
Memorial Day. For, it was his red
iculed Monitor, "the cheese box on a
raft" that saved the North when it
appeared as though nothing could stop
the smashing attack of the Confederate
iron-clad Merrimac.
Among the best known memorials
is the Peace Monument which for
many years has stood at the foot OF
Capitol Hill. Its symbolic figures are
of marble and memorialize the brave
seamen of the Civil War.
Two memorials stand as permanent
reminders of the valiant service rem
dered by women in the War Between
the States. The beautiful building OF

What seems like nightmare to
the man at the wheel or to the pedes-
trian waiting 10 minutes for a chance
to cross College avenue after q dress
parade, doesn't faze the Annapolis
chief Of police. With that good old
Maryland trait Of being easy going,
he can think of June Week traffic
with perfect equanimity. Other small
towns might go into a frenzy at the
thoughts Of q week Of constant
streams of strange automobiles. But
Chief william Curry is used to han
ding June Week crowds. A few State
policemen borrowed for the occasion
to help out the regular force, the

Importance which the Nation attaches
to the struggle nowhere is better ex-
emplif1ed than in the Capital. Even
the casual observer is struck by the
number Of statues and memorials
erected to the men and events Of the
war which made Memorial Day one
of wide national observance.
OF special interest in connection
with Memorial Day is the Stephenson
Grand Army Memorial. The man his
tory credits with having been the
founder of the Grand Army of the
Republic-through the efforts Of which
organization Memorial Day first was
marked-was Benjamin Franklin Ste
phenson, who joined the 14th Illinois
Infantry in 1862. His collaboration
was w. J. Rutledge, chaplain OF the
regiment.

ANNAPOLIS HAS LEARNED MASTERY OF JUNE WEEK TRAFFIC

AS A concession to June Week
crowds, the five-minute parking
will be eliminated on Maryland ave-
nue's west side, thus inconveniencing
the customers to the extent OF forcing
them to carry their packages across
q street just wide enough for three
automobiles, but giving the visitors
some hope of getting through in time
to see the new ensigns toss their white
CAPS in the air in Bancroft Hall.
Traffic congestion in Annapolis Is
by no means the fault of the city
officials, though the officials may be
considered . bit lenient in allowing
parking on certain streets. 1t Is en-
tirely the fault Of progress.
When Annapolis was still young,
Cowpen lane was quite wide enough
for the coaches which ratified up to
the city gates, and the occasional
hoof beats on Tabernacle street
scarcely disturbed the calm Of the
mansions on one side or the un-
finished halls OF Bladen's Folly on the
other. It was no trouble at all then
to drive on Northeast street, narrow
aS 1t was.

not foresee the day when Northeast

lock in a life-and-death struggle. Now
the tide of battle favors Lee, now
Meade. Then, slowly at first. and
faster and faster, the Confederates re-
treat southwark to the security OF the
blue-veiled hills of Virginia. The inva-
sion of the North has been stopped.
The greatest and most decisive battle
of the war between the States has
been fought.
That was IS years ago.
Today the survivors, not only OF
Gettysburg but of the entire host who
wore the Union blue and the Confed-
crate gray away back in IS, are max
ing their preparations once more to
invade Pennsylvania soil. This time
it is to be the last reunion OF the Grand
Army of the Republic and the United
Confederate Veterans.
They are coming, both the Boys in
Blue and their one-time foes, the Boys
in Gray, as the honored guests OF the
State they once defended or sought to
invade. They are coming to attend
the 18th anniversary of the great bat
tie which eventually brought victory
to the Northern armies and defeat to
the Confederacy.
Seventy-five years is q long time
and it is only a mere handful who are
coming. While there were some 2,000,-

War, fewer than 1000 are surviving
