We attended memorial day in the city
and meeting quite a number oi our
Beaver Creek friends, also many old and
very dear friends of our youth, which
brings to mind many joys and pleasures
as we grasp the hand that we have not
touched for perhaps many years. This
occasion also brings very sad memories
when we remember what we are gath
ered together on this day for to lay
aside our daily toil, and bitter feelings,
if any exist, and meet as one body to re
member our own dead, and the sons and
fathers and brothers, who bravely gave
up their homes and friends to defend
the grand old flag that waved so proudly
yet sadly that day at half maBt, and we
hope it may still wave on unblemished
until Gabriel blows his horn, and we all
meet where all are on an equal, high and
low, the outcast and the beggar, tor we
are taught from the Good Book that the
Great rather remembers us all.

the way the intelligent people of Beaver
Creek want to hold onto old relics (let
tis drop the curtain). We are surely able
in this prosperous, moneyed community
to have a neat schoolhouse, and also a
hall, if we lay aside our little grudges
and grasp with friendly hand our fellow
beings. We have two prosperous stores,
postoilice and about six churches within
six miles of each other ; nice fai m houses
and barns, sawmills, woodcamps, hop
yards, etc., galore. I wonder sometimes
if our little burg has in her haste for
wealth nearly forgotten the educational
affairs of her sons and daughters.
