MEMORIAL
DAY
“Hail, ye heroes! Heaven-born
hand who fought
And bled and died in Freedom's
Sacred cause!"
Tomorrow, Thursday May 30, is Memorial Day and
■will be locally observed as a general holiday. In fact,
with the exception of nine of the Southern states, Mem
orial Day is a legal holiday in every state in the Union
as well as in Alaska, Porto Rico and other American de
pendencies.
Memorial Day—Decoration Day it was then called—
came into existence shortly after the close of the Civil
War. For many years prior to the Spanish-American
war, Memorial Day was observed in a rather desultory
manner, the long observation and exercises being confin
ed mostly to school children and Grand Army members.
Flowers were strewn o'er the graves of the departed and
long-winded addresses and stories of the strenuous days^
of the earv '60s were recited; drinking freely of ice wat
er, meanwhile.
The meaning and spirit of Memorial Day as exem
plified since the Great War are practically the same as
before, only greater effort has been put forth to make
the spirit more general, and with the intensified spirit
has come a correspondinglv increased desire to make the j
occasion one of memorial in deed as well as in name.
While the memory of those who gave—or offered—i
their lives in anv war in defense of their country should
ever be sacred, it is fitting that at least one day in each j
year should be designated on which to give public acclaim j
to that memory. Tomorrow is that day—not for celebra-|
tion. but commemoration and honor of those who went
to the front, from which many never returned, and went
cheerfully and gladly to battle for the future of their
country and ours

CONTROL MILLIONS
“The ormnization”, said Mrs. 1
Woodmff, “is one of the greatest
Christian societies operating under
the Stars and Stripes. Sponsoring
?00 organizations we have a total
membership of 462.626 and our
board of 25 trustees have control of
a fund of three and one-half mil
lion dollars for carrying on the
work of the missions.”
Desiring to complete a survey of
all departments before the cele
bration of the society’s 60th anni
versary in 1930. the Alaska commit
tee was the first appointed and
the ladies named to journey to
Alaska and bring back a full report
on the «Tes?e Lee Home.
The trip to Alaska, Mrs. Woodruff
said, fills a desire that dates back
to childhood Mrs. Woodruff has!
been engaged in missionary work
for 30 years, having followed the
vocation of her father who likewise
saw service in Alaska.
BEST IN ALASKA
Both Mrs. DeVinny and Mrs.
Woodruff complimented the judge
ment of Mrs. Goode and the execu- ;
five secretary of the society upon
selecting Seward as the site of the i
Jesse Lee Home, and refering to the !
investigation that they themselves '
are conducting at present, paid the
highest tribute to the efficient
manner in which the Home is con
ducted by Superintendent Hatten
and his assistants. After visiting
other Alaskan cities both ladies
*^ere unanimous in their statement
that Seward was the most attract
ive looking town so far seen. They
believed it was the best place for
the Jesse Lee Home and conse
quently. the best in Alaska.
“We have only just begun the
work that we intend to develop in
Seward.” said Mrs. Woodruff. “It
evident that our expenditures
here were made wisely and we are
satisfied with everything. We have
greater plans for the Jesse Lee
Home in Seward, and we beseech
y u ladies and gentlemen of Sew- j
i rd Alaska not to falter in the fine
co-operative spirt you have already
shown us.”
