The reunion will mart the 7th anniversary of the Battle of Oettyaburg, turning point In the gnat conflict between the North and the South. For the Civil war veterane, It will probably be the last national reunion Their ranks are thin and feeble and grow thinner and more feeble with each passing year. No longer can they travel with the lest of youth. No longer la It safe for them to travel any distance without attendants. But this year they will have a great reunion at the famous battle field In Pennsylvania. The federal government will bear all the expense and pay also for a nurse or attendant to go with each old warrior. The veterans who plan to go from here " are Francis Mengoz, Medford, I. C.

For the past two years he has refused to participate In the Decoration dav parade because, as Is oustomary, the national guard follows the leading band.
