Lo Statler Block, Lhd Salisbury, Pa: DECORATION DAY. Over 1000 People in Line. Decoration day in Salisbury was truly 8 patriotic occasion this year. The busi- ness men manifested their respeet for our dead soldiers by closing their places of business during the exercises and taking part in the various ceremonies essential to make the day one long to be remem- bered. . All over our pretty mountain town conld the star-spangled banner he seen foating as grandly asit walted in the breeze upon the historic beautiful song, ‘The Btar-spangled Ban- ner,” was composed Not only were the business houses of the town closed, but work at nearly all the ‘public works in the vicinity was suspended and the em- ployes given a chance to take part in the exercises of the day. It was truly a grand day for all liberty-loving people—those who delight to honor the heroes who were willing to shed their blood for the nation, At two o'clock the large audience room of the German Baptist church was packed to its fullest capacity, and the audience listened to a short but very spirited ad- dress by Rev. P.D. Steslsmith, prayer by Dr. A. F. Speicher and some well-ren- dered and appropriate vocal selections by a picked choir under the supervision of 8. L. Livengood. The church was beau- tifully decorated with fragrant flowers, plants and evergreens, and too much praise can not be given 10 the young folks of the German Baptist church who got up the beautiful and tasty floral dec- orations. Neither can two much praise: be given to Messrs. Harvey Reitz and Harvey Lichty, the two courteous and efficient ushers. They certainly showed their, ability to make a large audience comfortable. ; After the services*at the church were over, the multitude proceeded to the cem- eteries to decorate the graves, the-follow- ing being ; THE ORDER OF MARCH: O. Flesher, marshal, leading thepro- cession. : “Salisbury cornet band. © 01d soldiers. Elk Lick council Jr. American Mechanics. Sons of Temperance.’ 3 Salisbury lodge Independent Order of Odd Fellows. Knights of Labor, Sunday schools. Qitizens and others. Mr. Flesher did his part nobly as mar- shal and proved himself an able officer. The band boys received many fine compliments, all of which "they merited, for the soul-inspiring marches and beau- tiful dirges they played were something AWav out of the ordinary. To use a com: mon expression, the were away. ‘out of Order United he old soldiers were enlivened by the and, the national o and satisfactorily to all. tow the Day Was Observed in dalisbury. ocension at Fort McHenry when the NUMBER 26. and the memory of their departed com- rades, and it was plain to see that they once more felt just as young as they used™ tu be. They attracted a great deal of at- tention, and their feelings of joy, mingled with sorrow for their dead comrades, was plainly visible to all. ; 5 It was hard to tell which of the orders made the best appearance, but suffice it to say that all deported themselves in an exemplary manner and. did their part nobly and well. SEL The Sunday schools also made a pleas. ; ant and attractive appearance, and. the boys and girls, with their garlands of - flowers, constituted the crowning feature of the parade. : i At the cemeteries Dr. A. F. Speicher was the master of ceremonies, and it can be truthfully sald that he was ‘the right man in the right place. 2 Ab In short everything passed off ‘nicely crowd was a very orderly one, and noth: 2 ing occurred during the entire day wf mar the solemnuness of the oceasion or the pleasure of any individual, One of our citizens counted the persons in the parade, while coming up Union street, and he reports 650 in line. number, he says, was joined by fully 500 more when Grant street was reached, so The large 5 + # This the entire number in line can safely be put at 1000 or more. Sh The occasion will long he remembered as the most universally observed-Decora tion day ever celebrated by our people. In behalf of the Jr. O.U. A. M., the instigators of the exercises, we extend tour thanks to the German Baptists for the use of their church, the band hoys for their music, and all for their good be- havior, good will and help in various WAYS. And now. that the 4th of July is draw- ing near, let old Salisbury make prepara: tions for the greatest celebration ever held in this part of the country. Let us all put our shoulders to the wheel and start the ball rolling. The glorions 4th is our greatest and most important na: tional holiday and everybody should cele- brate it. of the citizens to lay our plans for that day? Yl Six Months Old Today. THE STAR is six months old today. and it-is pretty generally conceded that it is a very healthy looking paper for one so young. In fact Tag STAR has a much more healthy and substantial appearance When shall we-eall a meeting” than some of its older contemporaries. It stands on its own merits and is sound to the core, both ‘financially and other wise. It does not need to make all ICE of preminm offers in order to get the pub: lic to read and subscribe for it. Only the wenk and poorer class of journals resort to such methods. Of course Tue Stan does: as many. other papers do—offers very low clubbing rates with city, ‘papers. and magazines, but we will furnish no other publications as premiums for less ; money than we have to pay for them our: selves. . But we take pleasure in stating that we can furnish almost any paper or magazine, of any note, to our subscribers. for considerable less money than they can secure them themselves, and we will take pleasure doing so whenever called upon. We thank our numerous patrons for’ theirliberal advertising and job printing patronage, as well as for their hearty sup: port in our subscription department. To the business men of Salisbury and vicinity we will Say that they are doing their part nobly toward the maintenance. of their local paper.” They are showing to the world that this is a live, energetic community. We find Salisbury a much livelier town than numerous citizens of a rival town not a thousand miles AWAY from here tried to make us believe when they learned that we were Zoing to es- tablish a paper here. Everything. was painted blue in their unsought advice, but we are glad to say that we are find- ing things all “O. K.” in Salisbury: Those who advised us not to locate here probably saw a bright future ahéad for old Salisbury, which would be reached much sooner by the aid of a newspaper, and that's what they didn’t like. A certain wise (2) editor even went so far as to tell one of our citizens that a newspaper wouldn’t amount to shucks in Salisbury, on account 'of the great hold he imagined his own self-styled great journal had here. But he is probably wiser now, for by sizing up our adver: tising patronage, he can tell by that alone { that Tae STAR outshines his own paper and has all the features of a prosperous Y stayer, : In conclusion, dear, gentle erring ones, vou who tried to persuade us not to lo. cate here, we wish to say that Salisbury is about the best business town in this county and is going to remain so until the sun grows cold, THE STAR grows old ‘and the leaves of the Judgment book: unfold. ‘And all this is true, even as it corded in:
