Editor f atarvd at lh FoMcffica at second dau matter MEMORIAL DAY. . :- Tomorrow is Memorial Day, and will ! reoOfjnized by appropriate ceremo nies throughout our State and south . land. Hundreds and thousands of our fellow citizens will go to the grave of some loved one who wore the : (ray, and there leave a token of un , dying affection for the one that lies be- xeath the sod. Many of these devotees will betake themselves to beautiful, well-kept cemeteries, where marble shaft vies with God's own flowers and shrubs in doing honor to the heroic dead; many others will turn to the solitary grave In some ( lonely field or garden that ' bears the treasured dust: still others 'will be deprived the sweet, sad, satis faction of visiting a spot hallowed by the remains of a loved one, but will eek solace in earnest, fervent prayer M the Great Ruler and Director of all life that is, has been, or will be. .The custom of paying this tribute ,1s beautiful one. It has a refining, el evating influence that should not be undervalued. The wholesome influence : of Memorial Day comes, not by way of keeping alive issues that bave befn settled forever by the arbitrament Of the sword, but in paying homage k those whose lives werS sacrificed tne performance or duty, as it ap peared to them. But would not Oie beauty of th .custom be enhanced by extending its application so as to make Memorial Day an occasion upon which the living should specially honor the memory f all their dead friends and relatives? This would make the custom a still more sacred C human" "Institution,' .specially appointed day upon which, the souls of the nving and the souls of the dead, may, as it were, com' mune with each other in living love. ; Let us, then, make of our memorial day a general decoration day. Let very grave in our beautiful cemetery ' be remembered tomorrow " afternoon ben the soldier's graves are decc rated after the memorial services are concluded " 1 .

They have for their object the advance ment of various Interests, but, so far ma we know, none of them have die . tlnAtlval In tlw lha lnntimui.t . purely public interests. . Now is the opportune moment for the organisation of such a club. So Thb Frek Press suggests that those f its citizens who are interested in the city's development along the most economical and artistic lines get together, form a club, and discuss projects of publio improvement. There is a great deal of virtue in the interchange of opinion. No one ; nan, or set of men, posesses t mono poly of the best ways and methods of . developing a city. - ' We would like to have an inter ' - - J ! 1 . , . . ui;vi vyiuiva un tne oest way to beautify and make attractive our -city : tret?, at small cost; the proper way "to secure clean streets; bow to wrestle ! with the back llotlproblem: h6w to secure and fix up an attractive park; ana on tnany other similar Questions.

WE MEASURE VALUE BY BULK AND BY NUMBERS. IT IS THE SAME ERRONEOUS JUDO. MEKT WHICH LEADS US TO MEASURE THE IMPORTANCE OF FAMIlJES BY THE NUM BER OF CHILDREN PRODUCED IN THEM. Is it not tinie that we should attach rather more importance to quality than -to size? I assert that it is much better that -a home shall have:from two to five children, strong in body, vigorous in mind, all of them eo equipped that in the course of nature one may expect them to live" to maturity f than that there should be from twelve to eighteen, half of whom are doomed to die in infancy and less than haf of whom will be fairly educated and equipped for life.

' With this increased sense of responsibility there comes to highly educated women a greater sense of personal dignity that is not. felt by women less developed. When such, women become mothers, they are willing and intentional mothers, not unwilling and inci dental victims of maternity. st st st : ' Through the efforts of the college bred woman interest in house hold science has received a great impetus. It is such women, ) and not the uneducated, who are endeavoring to organize' the home on scientific basis nd trying to make housework recognized fas beifljj wortny ot the attention ot educated women.,;. ., V, I' - LET US NOT LAMENT THE DIMINUTION OF FAMILIES."
