MEMORIAL DAY
BE OBSERVED
Daughters of Confedr&cy
in Charge Program
PATRIOTISM IS KEYNOTE
THOUGH VETERANS WILL NOT
BE SERVED DINNER THIS YEAR
PROGRAM OF PATRIOTIC IN
TEREST TO BE RENDERED
With less show, perhaps, but with
all the old time fervor and patriotism,
Memorial Day will be observed in
Jackson Friday, the 26. The program
is not as elaborate as that of former
years but all the old fires will be re
kindled and the South’s immortal he
roes, living and dead, will be paid a
fitting tribute by fair hands and lov
ing hearts.
The plans for the day are under
direction of Larkin Watson chapter
Daughters of the Confederacy. At 10
o’clock the veterans will assemble at
the court house, and from there they
will be taken in autrmobiles to the
city cemetery wheie school children
will lay flowers on the graves of the
departed heroes. At 11 o’clock the
audience will assemble at the school
auditorium, where the exercises will
be conducted by Dr. Robert VanDev
enter and Rev. S. R. England.
At the request of the veterans them
selves, knowing full well the priva
tions caused by vuar and in a spirit of
willing sacrifice, dinner will not be
served this year. The veterans re
quest this out of consideration of the
boys in the trenches and those soon
to go across. The food saved they are
willing to contribute to the soldiers
and sailors, showing again their de
votion to country, first attested
through four years of bloody strife.
The Daughters of the Confederacy
complied with the request of the vet
erans, whose comfort and welfare
they have always sought to give first
place.
On account of the nation being en
gaged in a mighty war peculiar sig
nificance attaches to Memorial Day
this year. The day will be celebrated
in every city and town of the state
with anew pledge of loyalty to a na
tion reunited, and with a common
hope and earnest belief that the sons
of the men who wore the Gray will
uphold on the fields of France the
best traditions of the Old South.

all records for the size of his feet.
He wears a number 15. He has to
have his shoes made to order, and the
better part of a cow hide is consum
ed in making casings for his pedal ex

Gus lives at Stark. If he can plant
his number 15’s squarely in the west

kick the satanic butcherer clear out
of France—something the big guns
of the allies haven’t done so far. And
everybody is pulling for Gus to go
