Olden Days

WE HAVE before us a charm
ing piece of writing a book
of some 500 pages, entitled
Ladies Day by Chard Powers
Smith, published by Scribners.
It's a story Of the old DAYS
when women were not allowed
to walk down the street alone,
when such den of iniquity as
saloon was not mentioned in
their presence and when falling
in love was pretty much directed
by pair Of stern parents.
We are pleased to note, how
ever, that children were as much
a problem then as now and
young Sally Lathrop was as
headstrong as they make EN-.

was Race Kirkwood l.. who be-

Truth to tell, Sally behaves
like diSgraceful little mink ...

gets away with.

Northern States Celebrate Me-
mortal Day May 30; South
At Various Times
Celebrations Everywhere Fol
low Familiar Pattern of Pa
rades, Flags and Music

Memorial Day, to be observed with
special exercises in Bluffton, Friday,
originated in the custom of decorating
soldiers graves following the Civil
War.
During that war some of the
Southern women chose a day in the
early spring of each year, on which
they scattered flowers over the graves
of dead soldiers. Whether the sol
diers were from the north or south
made no difference as the women COW
cred the graves of both Confederate
and Union soldiers.
1t was a generous and beautiful act
on the part of the Southern women
and the North appreciated it as evil
denced by numerous articles in the
various papers. There was no fixed
day for the celebration, however, un-
til General John A. Logan, command
er of the Grand Army of the Repub-
lie, issued a general order designating
May 80, 1868 for the purpose OF
strewing flowers or otherwise decor
ating the graves of comrades who
died in defense of their country, and
whose bodies now lie in almost every
city, village or hamlet churchyard in
the land
From that time on the both of May
has been the accepted day in the
north. Memorial day is a legal hol
day in almost every state, but the
date of observance is not the same

Memorial Day Exercises Originated In
Custom Of Decorating Civil War Graves

in all parts of the country. The
southern states have no general
Memorial day but each state has
selected a day to suit itself.
In the south there is also a separ-
ate memorial for the soldiers of the
Lost Cause and this is called "Con-
federate Memorial Day. In Louisi-
ana it is celebrated on June 3, the
birthday of jefferson Davis, who was
the first and only president of the
short-lived confederacy. Other south
ern state have various dates, some as
early as April.
But whether it's north or south,
the spirit is the same-a desire not to
keep alive old differences, but to hon.
or the memory of brave men who died
in defense of their country.
Memorial day observances, whether
in Bluffton or the other side of the
country, follow the same general pat
tern. Flags fly everywhere, there is
usually a parade of veterans and pa.
triotic organizations. The line Of
Civil War veterans is now becoming
sadly thin but veterans of the Spanish
American and the World War fill VI
the ranks.
After patriotic music and speecl
making the professions move out tt
the cemetery where the veterans
graves are decorated in appropriate
ceremonies. All of this is tribute
not only to the dead, but a pledge tt
the living who stand ready to serve
their country in her hour of need.
