The Chairman of the Executive Committee has Issued a call for a meet Ing of the cimmlttee at Ral elgh, on May 26th. to make preliminary arrangements for the annual session of the Association. Admiral Dewey's victory at Manila wreathed American faces with smiles of triumph and gladdened our hearts with true American pride. The Wins- low disaster cast a cloud over our re joicing, dropping about us the dark mantle of the seriousness of war. Par ticularly so Is the situation In Raleigh today, where our whole people are In deep bereavement and saddest mourn ing, with military honors, laying to rest In our beautiful city of the dead the mortal remains of Ensign Worth Bagley, the first Amerlsan olTicer sac rificed upon the Nation's altar. Thus it Is we learn that war Is not all a summer holiday rejoicing over victories achieved, for the future no doubt la full of pregnant questions which may not be answered with a smiling face. The noble, heroic men who man our warships are momentari ly awaiting orders that may lead them face to face with results when, like young Bagley, their names may be In scribed upon war's roll of patriotic and heroic dead with "Old Glory" as thel winding-sheet.
