At tlie Photoplay to-du}. —Advertisement. ♦ , * BOYS OFWIIY J TRIBUTE TO DEAD [Continued from First Page,] recorded act of unofficial attention and respect. And it needed no reveille to start the day for them. Most were up and about at sunup; and early this morn ing headquarters of the three posts presented a scene, that, save for the informality might have gone back ro enlistment days in the sixties. Yet the old warriors still kept up, if less tensely, the military order, system and dispatch that they had learned when the observance of such things meant life or death, a battle lost or won. Exercises in Cemeteries This morning the posts conducted exercises in the various cemeteries as announced. Post 58 going to Paxtang, Post 116 to East Harrisburg and Post 520 to Lincoln Cemetery. Simple ex ercises and brief patriotic services marked the observance. The veterans then returned, many to their homes for a needed rest: for at 1 o'clock they were due again on "the firing line" to take their places in the march, to stand again in the cemeteries and once more to carry flowers down the green carpeted aisles to the spots where their comrades lie. At noon came the one-minute for memory, a precious period to many. The city generally joined in this, and after 12 there was a hush as though the garments of twilight were trailing over the city. A hush like that which came after the cradle-song long ago when the veterans crept up to their mother's knees, in the days only a little before they were brown faced lads and thought that war was a fine thing, with drums and gold lace and fierce charges against an enemy that always yielded. Memories But to-day, pausing for that one minute's memory they know better. For the memories of comrades now dead are mingled with shrieks and roaring guns and gutted homes, bloody earth, strewed with bowels and bones, long vigils, shivering, fevers, fear brave conquest of fear —marches, aching feet—yes, yes, poor old Jim, he was always troubled with corns. Above all, to close the minute of memory, old glory appears waving out of the mists. Dinner time. No; it's mess to-day. Hie Blue Lines Form Then to headquarters. Again to greet the laughing comrades. The three posts marched down at 1 o'clock and took their position in line. With them the N. G. P. and the veterans of a younger generation from the I Spanish war, the Sons of Veterans! and the City Grays. At 2 o'clock the parade moved down Second to Mar ket, out Market to South Fourth, over the Mulberry street bridge to Thir teenth and thence to the cemetery. Joseph L. Leonard was the chief marshal and B. J. Campbell was chief of staff. The assistant marshals of the parade were W. It. Miller. John M. Mahor, A. J. Pugh, Robert Dougherty, William H. Hertz, G. L. Sellers, David Stevens, William Dixon, J. A. Simp son, Paul Harm and George F. Lumb. At Thirteenth street Post 58' left the main division of the parade and marched to Lincoln Cemetery where tribute was paid to the colored soldier dead. Cemetery Services Arrived in the cemetery the assem bly was sounded by Miss Irene Wag ner, following which a dirge was played by the band. Prayer was of fered by the Rev. Dr. Silas C. Swal low. Philip S. Moyer, attorney, deliv ered the oration of the day. After the oration came the procession to the burial plots. William Huggins, chap lain of Post 58, offered prayer. Wil liam T. Bishop, of Post 116. delivered an address. Noah A. Walmer read General Logan's orders. William H. Moore delivered Lincoln's address. Me morial readings by A. J. Pugh, George L. Sellers and George W. Rhoads pre ceded the saluting of the dead by guards of Post No. 58 and Camp 15, Sons of Veterans. Following bene diction by the Rev. Dr. Swallow came,— Taps. Then the flowers were strewed on the graves. Thousands of peonies from the city nursery were among the floral trib utes. Philip S. Moyer said In part: "Forty and more years ago General John A. Logan, then commander-in chief of the Grand Army of the RVjpulj lic, issued orders to the members of the Grand Army to observe the 30th day of May as a 'Decoration Day.' now gener ally observed as "Memorial Day.' The order was in these words: 'For the pur pose of strewing with flowers or other wise decorating the graves of camrades who died in defense of their country during the late Rebellion, and whose bodies now lie in almost every city, vil lage or hamlet church yard in the land.' To the fllaet to th«* Gray "Memorial Day, my friends, though always filled with rare and tender sen timents, can not mean the same to all of us. Its meaning Is quite a relative one. To you members of the Grand Army this day comes with different Im port than It does to me. To the heroes of the Blue It brings certain precious, kindred thoughts and memories, to those heroes of the Gray others, to the galant veterans of later and recent struggles still others, and to the gen eration of to-day which has risen since that time of civil strife it brings still I other, and far different, thoughts and meanings.

You hear a few shots fired in the distance, and now you are in the whirlwind of the charge or the trenches of forts. Only chance thoughts are these, called up by mere accident.

Marks «>C Many a Field "We the sons and grandsons of the sires of the sixties, are here not only to pay homage to the dead, but, as well, to you, their comrades, who are still with us. Heaven has smiled in favor upon vou and graciously lengthened vour lives many years since those bit ter days. You bear the marks of many a hard-fought field—of Bull Bun, Chattanooga, Vicksburg, Gettysburg and Appomattox. You were spared to know that your work had not been in vain. You have lived to see the nation free from sectionalism and slavery, to see her rise from all the want and weight of war, to see her take her place in the forefront of the nations of the world, and reach her highest state of peace and prosperity. We rejoice in vour presence, to-day. as a remnant of the grand old army of the Union. We rejoice, too. that there are already vet erans of our later struggles of that Spanish-American War that came up like a gale from the South, raged like a hurricane, was soon over, and left the nation richer in territory and stronger in position in the councils of the world; and veterans of the insurrections in the Philippines and In China, where men braved much, not alone of warfare, but of that more deadly enemy, disease and pestilence, and distinguished themselves ■so courageously and so boldly. All honor to those valiant heroes, who, at a moment's call, gave their services to the cause of the nation, to the cause of humanity. A Few Yen in More "A few years more, and only a few tottering figures will represent the files of the Grand Army. They have pitched their tents in the twilight zone and banked their fires for the long, long night. Each year an army of forty and more thousands march to their last bivouac. The members of the Grand Army who now take the active part in arranging for each Memorial Day cele bration will soon be gone; and the fu ture of this day remains with the Sons of Veterans, and other patriotic orders and associations, but more particularly with the Sons of Veterans. In their veins course some of the same heroic blood that distinguished our armies on many of the great battlefields. They have caught the true spirit of loyalty and valor by the firesides in the homes of our heroes. Much do we owe to them to-day for the great reverence accorded to our Memorial Day celebrations. And much shall we look to them in the fu ture. Whether this day shall degener ate from a holy day into a holiday will depend largely upon them. "In ancient times there was a game I in which men ran with lighted candles, and the point in the game was not see which runner ran the fastest, but which runner ran the fastest without putting out the light. It Is as true of the I courses of nations as It was of the run ners of old. I look to the history of the nations, ancient and modern, that stand in the line to-day. I look to China. 1 see the great dragon in the shadow of the Idols holding in its teeth the lighted i fagot of heathenism —remaining in j those shadows for five thousand years. , I look to Persia. I see a Moslem asleep ; before the shrines of Islam holding in . his hands the flickering torch of bigotry j ; and infidelity asleep before those j j shrines for three thousand years. I look j to the great nations of Europe. In eacn | i 1 see the aristocracy and privileged i class blended together, holding aloft I : the beacon of prejudice, and custom, ' and privilege—holding it there for cen- ! turles while all about them humanity i is crying for Light. Then 1 turn my < face across the waters to America, and , I see Columbia holding high the Light ! of Liberty—the light born at James- I town and Plymouth. I see her in the ! clouds at Gettysburg, and bearing an olive branch between the contending foes at Appomattox. I see her bring ing changed conditions in Cuba, a new light in the far-off Philipnines, and a healing touch to the troubled Orient. If the beacons of the nations of Europe have withstood the centuries, if the torch of Persia has flickered during all the great epochs, if the fagot of China has burned for five thousand years, I shall not doubt that Columbia, with the Light of Liberty in her hand, will have power to meei all the conditions and demands of the future throughout all the ages of time.
