As each succeeding Memorial day comes around, the number of placet, which mark the laet resting place of the nalion's defenders is increased, while the number of those who still re main behind to perform these saJ, yet pleasant duties is correspondingly lessened.

Monday, May 80, should be held as sacred to our dead comrades, and it should be the duty of every member of the Grand Army of the Republic to see that the exercises of this day are de- oted exclusively to the purposes for rhich they were originally intended and not a holiday for public entertain- nent or noisy elenjonstrations of any tiad. The exercises of this clay should be itrictly in charge of posts of the Grand army wherever practical, inviting to heir assistance the co-operation of tho various auxilaries, the Woman's Re- Corps, tha ladies of the G. A. R. and Sons of Veterans, aud all church BO- jieties and lodge associations.

As a further observance of this beau- ifnl custom, it is suggested that differ- nt posts in this department arrange with the superintendents aud teachers all our schools and educational in- titatious to devote tin afternoon of 'riday, May 27th, or at least a portion 3f that time, to patriotic exercises. The attention of post commanders is ailed to the fact that it is their duty arrange to have their posts attend ivine worship on Sunday proceeding lemorial day, aud the different socie- ies above mentioned should alao be iu- ited to participate iu these exercises, iy command of HUNKY KISSINGuu, Department Commander.
