It is geed te remember today the handshakes of the brave fellows when they met as brothers in the re-union at Gettysburg. Beside our fathers and mothers in the sanctuaries of Che Heavenly Bites there rest brave men whose names and deeds transcend the granite of tomb stones. Let us keep- our minds fresh and our memories clear of the fathers and brothers who gave their lives and for whom our country sets aside a day as memorial te their patriotism, courage and sacrifice. Let us put a few mere flowers in the homes of the widows and orphans of the soldiers who are gene, and let us plant some new gardens for these who remain and imile upon us. Let the new Governer and the new leaders of the great State of Pennsylvania mark the day with everything that counts for patriotism; and let us make the State of Penn sylvania greater, net only for the men who have gene, but for the men who are living, who have the example of the' splendid men whose valor, learning and leadership shall kad us te great endeavor.
