The following verse was attached

Committees Decorate Graves
Rev. C. K. Proctor, of Rocky Mount
delivered one of the best memorial
addresses in Mills High School au.
ditorlum on Sunday afternoon that
has been beard in Louisburg In some
time. He said, speaking of these an
nual memorial gatherings, that it was
a dangerous point In any community
or a family to forget to get together
and talk over achievements. It would
be dangerous for our country to for
get to honor the memory of 1U dead
heroes. It Is impossible for any of
us to live alone, he said and pointed
out forcibly that there was no such
thing as national seclusion. He was
glad that the war clouds had passed
'and the batle flags were furled. He
told how the Germans had been edu
cated up to a possibility and a desire
'for world power. He reviewed how
when the call for help came from
France, our youth, men, women and
children, threw themselves in to win,
and how the enemy~Was soon crushed
'under this noble spirit These we are
'honoring today answered the call with
I their life for a cause that was right,
that was just. He said peace will
I cove when the nations of the earth
j realize that we are one big family,
' and adopt the practice of brotherhood
in our dealings. And It would be the
disabled soldiers that will be our de- ;
1 liverers, the memory of whom will In-1
1 fluence us not to forget the awfulness ;
'of war.
| Present conditions, the speaker said
call for heroes equal to those who.
fell in Flanders Field. Our economic
conditions, growing disregard for law |
and order and disregard for devotions
tq our higher government, calls for i
heroes who* are willing to fight the |
battles of peace. The comrades of
the battlefield call to the comrades
of peace, we ha^-the higher ideals, j
We gave our best for them. We call;
to you to carry forward. The speaker
said a war may be won on a battle
field yet it may be lost in times of
peace. We shoud not so Indulge our. 1
selves that we may forget the glorious
principles for which our noble heroes
died. The United 8tates is calling for
patriots of peace. There is such a
thing as being a hero in time of war
and yet a traitor in times of peace.
He painted a beautiful but sad pic
ture of the cemeteries in France show
ing the thousands of white crosses.
No wonder he said, the nations of the'
earth say we are a great people. So
many of our youth fought and died
for the sake of a principle, and made
a beautiful plea for us to keep the
faith of our heroes by carrying on
the fight for the right that they had
begun.
Quite a large crowd from all parts
ot the county gathered at the auditor
ium of Mills Graded School on Sun
day afternoon to pay tribute to the
ralor of the World War heroes In the
usual annual memorial services ar
ranged by the Franklin County Me.

loyed the strong and forceful speech

Mrs. Berkeley gave a delightful
musical pageant last night to a large
and appreciative audience.
On last Wednesday night quite a
good number enjoyed the annc-il musi
cal recital by Mrs. Berkeley's music.
class. The program was especially
well arranged and wonderfully well
rendered. The splendid performance
of the young musicians attracted much
favorable comment from all present
and gave evidence of great prepara
tion and masterful instruction. The
entire program was so well rendered
It is hard to single out any of the
performers for special mention, how
ever the renditions by little Marion
Matthews and Louis WheleSB, and the
quartette by Misses Euzella Hill, Lou
ise Cooper and Messrs Bill Morris and
James Wheless seemed to touch the
most responsive applause from the au
dience.
The evening was most entertaining :
and much appreciated by all who at-!
tended.
which was so dear to him.
We resolve further that we offer
our sympathy to his loved ones; that
a copy of these resolutions be placed
in the archives of the association
and suitable publication be made
thereof.
The speaker was introduced by Dr.
Harry H. Johnson, saying that Frank
lin county was especially fortunate
this year in getting one of the State's
foremast speakers, whose services are
in great demand, to come and talk
to us, to bring us a message of love
and admiration for our soldier dead, i
The quartette sang sweetly, "Christ;
in Flanders," after which Edward j
Best, chairman of the arrangements,
committee, told of the activities of j
the Franklin County Memorial As-1
sociatiou aud what it was trying toj
do. That for the next year it was'
going to attempt two objects. To j
sponsor and direct the formation of;
a like organisation for our colored!
people, and to do honor to any ex-j
service man who may die, and to give
assistance to any ex-servlde man who'
may need assistance.
The committees were announced
together with the names ot the graves .
they were to decorate. The Star j
Spangld Banner was played by the or
chestra while the audience left the
building and joined the several com
mittees in the work of love designed
for the remembrance of the boys who.
had given their all for humanity.
Information was furnished the As-,
sociation on that day of the death of
Corporal Butler V. Fuller, Company C
120th Infantry, A. E. F., born August i'
27, 1898, died December 7, 1920, and
buried in the cemetery at Maple

"Starting a movement to get the

Special Letter
"Dear Friend: I most earnestly
desire your cooperation to make the
church services this summer a great
success. We cannot aftord to forsake
the worship of God, just because it is
a little uncomfortable at times at
church. We cannot afford I say, to
forsake the assembling of ourselves
together in the manner some are do
ing. We all need the church and the
church needs us. Come and you will
do us good. It is said, man is just
what be is, in his leisure moments.
Hence how carefully and prayerfully
we should spend our holy Sabbath;
for without the Sabbath we should
soon have no Bible. No church, no
worship, no Christian home, no God.
If the foundation be destroyed what
can the righteous do?
"Dear parents, lend me your good
influence and cooperation in the serv
ices for the children and young people
we hope to have this summer.
"One of the best things you can do
for your children, and the young peo
ple is to set the example of church at
tendance.
"If you are not a parent, you can
still help wonderfully In this good
work.
"Please take this message in the
same good spirit in which I write it.
I am here to look after the spiritual
welfare ofthe Mthodist church. Pray
for me and give me your support.
O. W. DO WD, Pastor."
