PRAISES BROTHER LOVE PLAN Alike honoring the serrices of soldiers in America's wars and exhorting those of the present dar to cherish and defend the heritage that is theirs. Judge William M. Parker, of Oil City. made the Memorial Day address from the temporary stand in the city park of Franklin Saturday forenoon.

in the course of the program that followed the G. A. R. ritual at the monument in the park and the parade to the Franklin cemetery with the concluding exercises there. Judge Parker spoke for peace.

but for a kind that recognizes the right of national defense. He gloried in the achievements of American soldiers in the past. but presented vividly to those of the present time, whether soldiers or civilians, the fact that the country still must be defended against enemies, and he particulariy mentioned communism. address was recoired with great satisfaction by the gathering about the stand. and was several times interrupted by applause.

Judge Parker spoke substantially as follows: "Nature seems to be in harmony with this occasion. She had donned her best apparel and joined with us in paying this tribute to the soldiers who have passed on and those who still survive. "It is a beautiful custom that causes 119 to come here today. We get to thinking of it as a sentiment. not the sentiment of the passions, mere matter of the emotions.

But another kind of emotion, another kind of sentiment. which amounts to something more than merely dropping flowers on the grave of departed comrades. If that had been the sun of the custom. It would probably have fallen by the wayside before this. But you members of the Grand Army of the Republic have perpetuated an ideal that has been translated into acts.

It. was representative of the very best of our American traditions. For years we have followed you. the old soidiers, as you have made your annual pilgrimage to the graves of departed comrades. There was 10 incentive to us of a younger generation.

The devotion with which you preserved. the persistence with which you maintained the custom influenced us until it has become a day. a religious festival for us. It is worthy of our best devotion. Principle Behind Our Wars.

"It seems to me that it was not by mere that occasion has come it think it was accident. this, because American soldiers represent new ideal to the world. The poets have sung of arms and men for many centuries. It has been a custom laud those who fought bravely and displayed unusual heroism. But the -m- phasis has been placed on those particular deeds.

and deeds of valor, rather than on strife for the maintenance of great and living principles. If you will recall, our American wars have been different on the whole from the wars of other days. Ours have not been wars of conquest. With perhaps 11 mental reservation as to the can war we have always been engaged in the maintenance of a genuine principle. The soldiers of 1776 fought for freedom.

The soldiers of 1861 and 1865 fought to preserve this Union for us, that liberty might be maintained. The soldiers of the Spanish-American War. too. made their contribution which I think sometimes we do not appreciate, Conditions existed close to our shores which were inimical to our best interests. The people of another nation were suffering and these men came to the rescue and gave to them the same measure of devotion as the other soldiers.

I think that what these old soldiers of the Grand Army of the Republic did for us helped to make the men of the World War what they were. That was peculiarly a clash between elements of civilization. The Germans knew the last thing in the ort of war. Preparations had been carried on for years. Everything wAs centered on the training of a military machine.

And ret these boys of ours wet them in such a manner as the world can never forget. I think our old friends here had a large part in the making of the American soldier of the World War. And I think that if they were speaking here today they would say the same thing as I do. that as they followed the Civil War veterans from year to year as ther made their annual pilgrimage they learned the spirit of devotion. Rededication of America.

"The world has long acclaimed Marathon and Thermopylae as the last word on what a soldier can do in times of stress. Yet as we look back on the campaigns in which you soldiers fought we know that Marathon and Thermopylae had nothing in them that surpassed the devotion and courage of the American soldier in the Ciril War, or all the way from the Belgian tier to the mountains of Switzerland in the World War. So much has been said to the honor of these soldiers that there is little that can be added. But as was pointed out in Abraham Lincoln's memorable address repeated so splendidly by the old comrade today, it is for us, the living, to complete the task. This nation was given to us by the fathers of '76.

It was preserved for us by you soldiers of the last century. But it is for the living to show their appreciation of what was done ey the soldiers through our rededica- LEGION MEMORIAL PLOT DEDICATED TO HEROIC DEAD Impressive Ceremony at Noon on Memorial Day Flag That Flew in France is Half Masted. GEN. RICKARDS IS PRESENT A few minutes before noon on Memorial Day impressive dedication services took place on the plateau overlooking the Franklin cemetery, where the Legion memorial plot is located. A flag that few in France, over General George C.

Rickards's masted at the conclusion of the proheadquarters, was unfurled and half- gram. The program was attended by a considerable representation of the American Legion, members of the Auxiliary, General Rickards and members of his family and Captain Woody and a firing squad from Company L. Caleb D. Sutton, on behalf of the Franklin Cemetery Association, presented the deed to the lot to the 1 Legion. James A.

Murrin, adjutant, accepting it on behalf of the post, said: "Dedicated to the heroic dead, embodying in its symbolism the sacrifices on the field of battle and courageous participation in the World War, this is more than a cemetery plot. It is the embodiment of memorial in a larger sense memorial to all those high ideals of 1917 and 1918, when service was placed high above self, when men and women responded instantly to the call of patriotism, when individual hopes and aspirations were submerged In the common cause. Those Who Sleep in France. "There sleep today in the wartime cemeteries of France--at Romague, Bony, Bellean Wood and at Suresnesour comrades of yesteryear. As flags fly above their graves and Old Glory floats in the breeze from this masthead, we feel a deep sense of responsibility to carry on in their name, to do our full share to uphold the ideals they served -to do by living what they, the dead, would have done." Commander John Minin thereupon dedicated the plot to "the memory of those who fell in the service of their country by land and by sea." "Their lives," he said.

are glorious before us, their deeds are an inspiration. I dedicate this memorial plot to them, and with it dedicate this post to the eternal service of our country and the preservation of the memory of those who died that liberty might not perish." At this point in the program James Hindman and William Siebert, sergeants-at-arms of post, deposited floral tributes at the base of the flagpole, in memory of the departed soldiers. Bugler Jack Hardenburg, of Company sounded "to the colors" and wartime Stars and Stripes, from the fields of France, was unfurled to the breezs, run to the top of the pole and then half-masted, assembled Legionnaires and Company L's firing squad standing at attention. Then came a 21-gun salute, the ceremonies concluding with the bugle sounding "Retreat." A brilliant sun burst through the clouds. It was a few minutes past 12 o'clock.

Old Glory was then run to the top of the 72-foot pole, fluttering in the breeze from then until sundown. The acre-and-a-half memorial plot had been formally dedicated.

When naturalized American citizeng cannot conduct themselves as American citizens should, they must consequences, as Michel Shirru did when the was shot in Rome for attempting to assassinate Premier Mussolini. The aviator who swore he would never ride a railroad train again after the Pullman in which he was riding was blown from the track in North Dakota, must be a brave man. He probably does not realize that "never" covers a long period of time. It is a safe bet that the policeman in Salt Lake City rubbed his eyes and looked again when he saw a tiful young woman walking down the avenue at 2 a. m.

in her bare feet and dressed only in silk pajamas. The woman, whose home is in New York, was in a dazed condition and could not explain her presence in the Mormon city. Near Washington, the firemen were answering an alarm when they drove head-on into a swarm of bees. A terrible fight ensued, and by the time firemen had fought off the bees the fire was out.

In the future husbands will have to be more careful how they address their better halves, for five (married) judges of the Supreme Court in New York have decided that a man has no right to call his wife a cow. In Los Angeles a man found a halfgrown sea lion waddling around in his garden. As the city sets back 12 miles from the sea shore its presence could not be explained. RECENT DEATHS Mrs. Mary Evelyn Crispen.

Mrs. Mary Evelyn Crispen, aged 27 sears, the wife of John E. Crispen, died on Friday night in Warren, following an illness of 21 year. She was born in Franklin on June 15, 1903. and for practically all her life was a resident of this city.

She was a student at the St. Patrick's parochial school and a devout member of St. Patrick's church. Nine years ago she was united in marriage with John E. Crispen.

Surviving her are her husband: her mother, Mrs. Sarah Roppeneker, of Bleakley Hill: one sister, Mrs. Laughlin, of Mentor. Ohio, and two Ulcers Operation 1 don of America to the causes ther auve fought for. "I hare little sympathy for the paciust.

I have great sympathy for the man who scatters brotherly lore throughout the world. I have little time for statesmen in the halls of gress and on the streets who would stir strife among other nations and up stand in the war of all proper efforts to have understanding among the natiens of the But it ill behooves us to whom the heritage was given to sit down in complacency and say we have 110 task to perform. I believe in militant patriotism. I do not believe in a nation that would close all our doors and not have coutact both commercially and socially with other nations. A man may be a patriot and -till have an international viewpoint.

Every effort has been made by 118 to promote a proper understanding with the nations of the world. But because seek to protect my own family, protect them in times of stress and strain. is no reason why I may not love my neighbors. The United States may protect the interests of its own citizens without promoting discord with those who tire on other shores. Believes In Militant Patriotism.

"I believe we should not be ultra pacifists. 1 believe in militant patriotism. There are interests now at work which are just as hostile to this U'nited States as any so-called rebel. Many of who have talked to these old soldiers have heard many kind words said of their opponents of 61- '65. But those same men would have no word of commendation to sAy for so-called communism.

There are interests in the world that would destroy this nation for which these men gave their blood and strength. When organlizations declare that belief in God and the sanctity of the home should be discouraged in every war, and an organization is set up in this country, the Young Pioneers I refer to, which inculcates in youth of the nation disbelief in all our soldiers have fought for, I say it la time for a militant patriotism to arise that this may be stamped from the earth. The Boy Scouts go into camp where they have active. healthy recreation and are taught those things that are right, and then when you see in America the so-called Pioneers, whose purpose it is to tear down by means of an insidious campaign. I say we need the soldiers back again.

"When the people speak no man is more suscentible to control than the statesman-politician, and I do not for a moment suggest at this time, which is a very hallowed time. anything which savors of polities or of so-called worldly things, for it is a sacred and a holy time. But of what use is it to laud the deeds of the soldiers and at the same time neglect the heritage that has been handed down to us? Responsibility for Young Vets. "I delight to see those who are proud of their ancestors. the family that can boast of the men and women who have contributed the best to American life.

But does that mean anything, today unless we are acting, unless our beliefs are crystallized into acts? It isn't merely An idle fancy that causes us to come together with these different organizations. It behooves us to be rededicated today to complete the task begun by these soldiers. "What a power there is in these soldiers of the Civil War and the American Legion and the Veterans of Foreign Wars and whaterer other organization they represent. The soldier of the last generation can have anything he wants. As we have power, we have responsibility a and there is a great responsibility resting on the American Legion and the Veterans of Foreign Wars to carry on the task these older veterans have laid down or soon will lay down.

would remind you again before closing that the thing that has tinguished the American soldier from all others is what I call faith, faith in the justice of his cause and in America. In these present days there is an unusual demand to preserve faith in our institutions. When things are not going just right it calls for the best contribution that can be made by the citizens of the country. But let us not for one moment forget that we must have the same faith in our institutions that our soldier predecessors had. Faith is an image of eternity.

It lives in the present but remembers the past and contemplates the future. It converses with the angels, but the man who knows he has been faithful to duty, that he has had faith, will be able to sing the song with great eclat when the blessed sing. The secret of success in individual life and the secret of success in national life is to believe in ourselves and in our country. The red. the communist, the bolsherist.

does not believe in our country. We do, and we need a militant patriotism. "May the old flag every time it is unfurled, that flag which was brought back to us by the soldiers of '61 with every star in place, the flag that was taken down in to the Caribbean by soldiers and brought back with the same luster it had when it departed, and that flag that was for the first time taken across seas into distant lands to save the world for Democracy, may its luster never dim and as Abraham Lincoln said, may we, the living, be dedicated and consecrated to the maintenance of the luster of the flag."
