Memorial Day First Observed in 1868 Carbondale, 111. (UP.) A little more than 89 years ago, three Union veterans of the Civ il War saw - a widow and her children place flowers on her husband's grave. That was on April 29, 1866. They conferred with John A. "Black Jack" Logan, who 'had come home after resigning from the Union Army where he was a major-general commanding the Army of the Tennessee. They found he was thinking along the j same lines, they were that a definite time should be set iside for honoring the war dead. Out of Logan's ideas and the conference with the Union. vet erans was born, on May 30, 1868, the first proclaimed Memorial Day. By that time, the black-haired Logan, later to become a Un ited States Senator from Illin ois, had founded the Grand Army of the Republic, an organization Tho wouldn't bke for this pretty girl!

There still remains one survivor of the GAR Albert Woolson of Duluth, Minn, now 108 years old. Confederate Observances Logan had left his hometown here and gone to Washington in 1868. His wife took a South ern tour, and told him of obser vance honoring the Confederate war dead at Richmond. He also remembered the incident back home in Carbondale, where he hadspoken at ceremonies honor ing the war. dead. He asked the GAR to sponsor memorial services across the na tion for the Union dead, and picked May 30 as the day to "take full advantage of the blooming season of most flow ers." And he issued General Or der No. 11 which read in part: "The 30th day of May, 1868, is designated for the purpose of strewing with flowers or oth erwise decorating the graves of the men who died in defense of their country . . . and whose bodies lie in every city, village and hamlet churchyard in the land , . . " Becomes National Holiday Before Logan died in 1886, his Decoration day was a na tional holiday and now Memor Day is observed in 42 states on May 30 and six other states have Charles Broili Funeral At Ashland on Tuesday Ashland Funeral services will be held at Litwiller's Moun tain View chapel here Tuesday for Charles Guy Broili, 79, who died here Friday. Entombment will be in Rest Haven mauso leum. The deceased was born in Nebraska on June 22, 1875, and came to Ashland in 1922. Sur vivors include his wife, Leonora; two sons, Adrian A., Seattle, and Robert T., H o u s t o n, Tex., a daughter, Mrs. Michael Chrones, Eugene; six sisters, a brother and nine grandchildren. EVIDENCE SQUEALS Des Moines, la. (U.R) Two bothers, aged 12 and 13, left a telltale clue when they .stole $5 from a dairy locker room. They left their 11-year-old brother behind. He told police what hap pened. SdeHne Imported Chins 14(UvelyPoHera$ different days to honor their war dead or call the observance by another name. Although Logan rose high in political circles, he is probably best remembered for the order that started the nationwide ob servance that will be held again today. The order also said: "If other eyes grow dull, and other hands slack, and other hearts cold in the solemn trust, ours (the GAR) shall keep it well as long as the light and warmth of life remain to us." The "warmth of life" died out for "Black Jack". Logan and his comrades long ago but later gen erations of Americans have kept the "solemn trust" to honor the nation's war dead. Clue To Lost Girl Fails To Develop Berkeley, Calif. (U.R) An other , possible clue to the fate of 14-year-old Stephanie Bryan ended yesterday in disappoint ment for her worried parents.
