Ad rate on application Office With A l Hermonson MEMORIAL DAY Friday is Memorial day. This day had its birth as a day of commemoration of the heroic dead who gave their lives in the service of their nation in the great Civil War. It was a military event and for the past few decades the spirit of Memorial Dav has developed and expanded until it is no longer ob served as a day of homage to military dead. It is a day when everyone in our great nation bows his head in reverence and devotion to the departed loved ones. On this occasion we stop in the mad spasm of life for a moment to consider the past—to bear a few minutes with the loved ones who have passed on to that unexplored realm beyond the grave. It surely is a pleasant, tho sad day to anticipate. It brings back to many the thoughts of the happy days spent at the knee of a departed mother or father, the splendid hours spent with a dear friend or brother. In ones thoughts they live again and lend their best efforts in making our own lives more helpful and beautiful. It is not the fact that those who have passed on are dead, that causes us to bear our burdens of flowers to place upon their graves. The incentive is born of senti ment. We have loved the ones for whom we mourn this day. We have enjoyed their companionship, their cares ses, their tender nursing or their loving guidance and as a result we want to do them homage. We place upon their tomb a wreath which is our way of expressing our gratitude to them. If it were not for that sentiment what a hollow, meaningless event this day would be. ♦ * ♦ GRADUATION This is the time of graduation in the schools of a great part of our state. It is during this month that our high schools turn out it quota of young men and women with an academic education. They have reached a turning point in their lives. They have come to their commence ment. The graduate will now prepare for higher education or will go out into the marts of the world and from them endeavor to achieve success in some chosen undertaking. At any rate the home ties will undoubtedly be severed.. The tender parental hand will gradually loosen its grip and the world at large will take a firmer hold. Fond parents have taught the lessons they had to teach. They have tenderly reared the young man or woman from infancy to the age of the adult and are now pleased to offer their child unto the world. W hat a mixed feeling of joy and grief must be intermingled in the heart of each parent who witnesses the graduation — joy that they have successfully brought their child to their present state and helped them to avoid the many pitfalls which present themselves to the immature minds of the young folks and grief in the thoughts that it will be but a short time now until that same child will be traveling down their own avenues of life independent of parental guiding hands. And so life runs. Each year brings its new crop of graduates and each year sees the closing of many useful careers. Life’s great cycle is so magnificent that when one halts to ponder it he is almost overwhelmed.
